When to Call a Springfield Commercial Vehicle Accident Lawyer

Our Springfield personal injury lawyers want to make it easy for you to recover from a serious accident. You can call our team:

When You Need Help Communicating With an Insurance Company

You have the right to bring your commercial vehicle accident losses to the attention of the insurance adjuster for the responsible party immediately following a collision. However, we recommend waiting to do so until you’ve spoken with an experienced attorney.

Unfortunately, insurance claims adjusters and their affiliates can use underhanded techniques to deny you the support you need after a serious collision. If you want to stay one step ahead of an insurance company’s bad faith tactics, you can ask an attorney to help you gather evidence of accident-causing negligence and file your insurance claim.

When You Need Help Filing a Personal Injury Claim

There’s a chance you may not get the required damages to recover from a commercial vehicle accident from an insurance company. You can hold a negligent party directly responsible for your financial recovery in these cases.

Our fearless, experienced, dedicated lawyers can help you file a personal injury claim against trucking agencies, corporations, and independent contractors.

You can specifically rely on us to ensure you can:

Investigate the negligence that led to your accident
Gather the evidence needed to make a case against a negligent party
Meet the court’s filing expectations
Express your desire for reasonable compensation in and out of civil court

Our Springfield commercial vehicle accident attorneys offer these services on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don’t have to put down a deposit to start working with our team. We only get paid if we secure the commercial vehicle accident settlement you deserve.

We also offer free consultations on commercial vehicle accident cases. Schedule your appointment today to learn how to fight for post-accident compensation.

What to Know About Ohio’s Personal Injury Statute of Limitations

Ohio Rev. Code § 2305.10(A) serves as Ohio’s personal injury statute of limitations. This statute gives you no more than two years to build a commercial vehicle accident claim against the party responsible for your accident.

You must file a claim before your case’s statute of limitations expires if you want Ohio’s civil courts to recognize your right to accident compensation. The state’s civil courts will not consider claims submitted after a case’s statute of limitations expires.

Fortunately, you’re not working alone to file your claim. You can ask an experienced attorney to outline the timeline you must compile and file your claim. You can then rely on a professional’s support to ensure your claim reaches the right parties in time.

How to Prove Your Right to Commercial Vehicle Accident Damages

Before Ohio’s civil courts will award you financial aid to recover from a commercial vehicle accident, you must submit proof indicating that:

A commercial vehicle driver owed you a duty of care ahead of your collision
The driver or an affiliated party violated the duty they owed you
You suffered economically due to that negligence

The evidence you use to make your points will vary depending on the nature of your accident. Fortunately, you can rely on our Springfield, OH, commercial vehicle attorneys and investigative partners to gather your needed data. We use trucks’ black box data, videos, photos, bystander statements, and expert witness testimony to fight for the support you deserve.

What Damages to Include in Your Request for Support

Generally, we help clients ask for damages that cover losses like the following:

Emergency medical care, including ambulance fees
Ongoing medical treatments
Pain management, therapy, and at-home assistance
Lost wages
Temporary or permanent disabilities
Property damage and restoration
Reduced quality of life

I spoke on the phone with a young lady name Tammy, an absolute angel. She was there for me emotionally through the phone after my financial crisis and she allowed me to vent and she was very supportive and understanding to me. She led me in the direction on the right ladies for my current situation and I am very thankful to have crossed paths with her. She had a sense of humor that brought my mood from down to back up and trusting faith we will get thru this. Thank you again for the motivation Tammy.

I was t-boned in an intersection on my way to work. It was terrifying. Officers on scene indicated the man who hit me was being cited. Then they learned he is a local celebrity and decided against it. My car was totaled and I was in pain. And now this guy gets to walk away. Until Sean Alto and his paralegal Kim got hold of my file and said - hold up - not on my watch. They dug in, found the evidence and made it right. Thank you all so much!! Highly recommend.

For the most part when you need legal representation something has not gone well. You are concerned, anxiety is up, you feel low, even frightened, and there does not seem to be a light anywhere around. Thus, I am very happy that I called CooperElliott. Much of that despair began to lift, I knew I had someone behind me, in front of me, beside me, and that I was not alone. I was treated like I had been a client for forever by everyone I was in contact with and met with. A great firm that will fight for you, and that means a great deal when you need someone who will do that with you. Thank you CooperElliott.

Through the law firm Cooper Elliott, I dealt with attorney, Bart Keyes. Bart was very thorough and understood that I Had no clue of how this process would go. Bart took the time needed to help educate me on this process for a very positive outcome.I can’t thank Bart and the staff at Cooper Elliott enough for all they have done for me. I am now able to move on with my life!

My name is Anthony Johnson and I just spoke with Ben Cooper about a wrongful accusation case, unfortunately they don't take on cases such as these but Ben gave me some valuable information and I could tell he really was trying to help me. Very knowledgeable and a great listener. Give him all call for anything law related. Made me feel important.

I worked with Adam Richards and his team. They were empathetic to my situation and extremely professional. I don't know what I would have done without their expert guidance and counsel. Adam really knows his stuff, and it was clear he had an excellent rapport with all who assisted in the case. Adam's communication abilities were next level. I never had to worry about getting ahold of him when needed. I know he and his team will continue to knock it out of the park for all future clients like they did for me.

My husband, Bob and I were injured in an automobile accident in December, 2022 when someone came through a Stop sign. We contacted Cooper Elliott, and were fortunate to work with Sean Alto and Kaela King. They came to our home several times to meet us and discuss the case, and got to know us personally as well as professionally. They really care about their clients! In addition, Michael Tonovitz stayed in contact with us to keep us informed on the progress of the case, which was resolved to our satisfaction.We highly recommend this law firm for personal injury!

I am so glad I found cooper Elliot. My attorneys Jon and Adam helped me through the entire process. After a traumatic experience in my life I was confused and in pain. They worked tirelessly to become familiar with all the details of my story and represented me in a way that made me more able to process and understand the trauma myself. This was huge for me, while there’s still healing to do, I can do that work now instead of staying in a purgatory of cognitive dissonance. They didn’t just win justice for me, they are a significant part of my healing journey. They were validating, non judgmental, honest, and knowledgeable.

Jonathan Bond handled a personal injury claim for me quickly with maximum results. He’s pleasant and enjoyable to work with, as well as compassionate. The firm handled all the legwork of getting medical records and copies of paperwork, which not all firms do. I would recommend Jonathan to anyone and would definitely go back to him if the need were to arise again.

Very satisfied! We dealt with Bart Keyes who showed genuine interest in our situation. Bart was always very quick to respond when we had questions and kept us informed throughout the case. If you need legal representation for a commercial real estate dispute we highly recommend Bart and the Cooper Elliot firm!

I honestly struggle to find the words to describe how incredible this firm is, especially Jeffrey Kenny and Sean Alto. 7 years ago, my family started a journey through a nightmare. When the criminal justice system fell woefully short, Jeff agreed to take on our incredibly challenging and lengthy case, with no other reason than that it was the right thing to do, and he believed we deserved justice. There were so many times when I would have understood if they walked away, but they refused and vowed to get us the justice we deserved, and almost 7 years later, they have given my family just that. I will never, ever, forget what they have done for us. We were never just another case. They made us feel like we were their ONLY case! Thank you will never come close to the gratitude and respect I have for Jeff and Sean, as well as for Cooper Elliott. They will be superheroes in our home, forever!

I would highly recommend Cooper Elliott to any of my friends and family! Chip Cooper was extremely helpful guiding me through a difficult process. Chip was patient with me and provided feedback during the process that kept me informed until the desired outcome was achieved. There were interactions with other staff of the firm (whose names I do not know) that were helpful as well, I was impressed with the entire team!

Adam Richards is the best attorney I have ever met. He is responsive and very patient (I had a lot of questions) and he truly cares. He fought hard for me and he stands up to the bully. he is not afraid to take on anyone. Anytime I hear someone who has a legal issue I go out of my way to recommend Adam. He is unlike any attorney I have ever met. He is compassionate and he always answers his phone. There is no way I would have got the results I received with any other attorney. He was a bulldog in my case and really went to bat for me. Words cant express how grateful I am to him. His actions personally affected my life in a very positive way. He protected me in so many ways I couldn't begin to name them. It is a great feeling when you know your attorney outmatches the other party's attorney and it is obvious.
