Looking for Your Own Personal Injury Attorney in Columbus Ohio
There are a number of reasons why you may be looking for a personal injury attorney after some time has passed since your accident. Some people get in a car accident, don't think anything is wrong and don't make a big deal of it until they realize weeks later that something hurts and that they should get in to see a doctor. Some people try dealing with the insurance adjusters themselves first before getting to a stand still when the insurance adjuster offers a payment that is just too low for what you think you should get for your injuries. Somtimes, injuries from an accident are so serious that finding a personal injury attorney is the last thing on anyone's mind - survival is the only thing that matters.
Can I Still File a Personal Injury Claim if My Accident Was a While Ago?
You should know that you have two years from the date of the accident to file a claim or lawsuit for your personal injuries under Ohio's statute of limitations law. Sometimes it is better to wait to file a claim with the insurance company or file a lawsuit until a while after the accident anyways because then you will have had a better chance to have the injuries treated and to know the long term prognosis better.
