Someone's carelessness rearranged your life — the medical bills, the missed work, the pain that doesn't clock out. Our job is to move that cost off your family and onto the people who caused it.
An injury case is a proof problem wearing a human story. The insurance company's first offer assumes you can't prove the full story — the future surgeries, the lost earning years, what the pain takes from a marriage or a job you loved. We close that gap with evidence: complete medical records and the doctors to explain them, vocational and economic experts where the losses run long, and scene evidence preserved before it disappears.
West Virginia gives injury victims two years, in most cases, to file suit (W. Va. Code § 55-2-12) — Ohio, generally the same (Ohio Rev. Code § 2305.10). Both states use modified comparative fault: if a jury puts more than half the blame on you, you recover nothing (W. Va. Code § 55-7-13c; Ohio Rev. Code § 2315.33). Expect the adjuster to push blame toward you for exactly that reason. Don't give recorded statements before you've talked to a lawyer.
Fees are pure contingency. You owe nothing up front and nothing at all unless we recover for you.
Questions
What is my injury case worth?
It depends on liability, the medical evidence, venue, and — bluntly — the insurance available. West Virginia's minimum auto liability limits are $25,000 per person, so identifying every layer of coverage (the defendant's policy, your underinsured-motorist coverage, employer policies) is often where the real money is found. We map all of it before we value anything.
The adjuster seems friendly and wants my statement. Should I give one?
No — not before counsel. The adjuster's job is to close your claim cheaply, and recorded statements exist to lock you into answers before you know your own injuries. Politely decline and call a lawyer.
What if I was partly at fault?
You can still recover in both WV and OH if you were 50% at fault or less — your award is just reduced by your share. That allocation is argued, not announced. Don't accept the adjuster's version of it.
