IF NECESSARY, WE EMPLOY PRIVATE INVESTIGATORS TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE CRASH

While most police work is held to a high standard of accuracy, regarding crash scene investigation, if we do not agree with the official traffic collision report, we will use other measures of our own to get to the truth. This may involve hiring a private collision investigator or expert witness. At Groth & Associates, we stop at nothing to ensure that our clients’ rights are protected and that you are not unfairly accused of being partially to blame. Ohio is a comparative negligence state, as described by the Ohio Department of Revenue. This means that if you are deemed more than 50 percent liable for causing the crash, you will not be entitled to any financial compensation. Moreover, it means that if you are deemed negligent in any amount, you will be that much less entitled to compensation. For example, if the court decides that you were 20 percent negligent in causing the crash, you will only be able to receive 80 percent of the damages that you would have been entitled to had you not been deemed negligent. When can this happen?

HOW DOES COMPARATIVE LIABILITY ARISE?

WHILE PERSONAL INJURIES ARE OFTEN REFERRED TO AS ACCIDENTS, THEY ARE OFTEN THE RESULT OF ANOTHER PERSON’S RECKLESS OR NEGLIGENT CONDUCT.

If another vehicle turned out from a side street in front of you when you had the right of way, but you were speeding, you may be found partially at fault. This is actually a very common scenario, as a survey conducted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) found that 36 percent of crashes occurred when one vehicle was turning or crossing at an intersection. And, given that many people speed every time they get behind at wheel of a car, at some point, the likelihood of the other party casting blame is very high, even if your alleged speeding had nothing to do with the cause of the crash.

HOW LONG WILL THE PROCESS TAKE? AND IS THERE ANY WAY TO SPEED IT UP?

Seeking a substantial and fair out-of-court settlement or filing a lawsuit can both be daunting processes. For one, both can take well over a year before anything is resolved. While it may seem like nothing has progressed and that your answers are not being met by the opposing party, we can assure you that our attorneys will apply pressure on a routine basis, applying the grease necessary to turn the slow, creaking wheels of what is the Ohio legal machine.

We implore you to be as patient as possible, as one of the main legal tactics of the other side is to delay. Insurance companies get back to requests slowly, do not respond to paperwork unless pressed, and regularly offer little information, or even deceiving information, regarding their client’s policy. The Waterville attorneys of Groth & Associates know every trick in the book, though, and will ensure that you are fairly compensated by the end.
