How We Build Your Ohio Personal Injury Case

More than 40 years building strong personal injury cases

The Donahey Law Firm has spent more than four decades winning compensation for injured clients throughout Ohio. When we hear your case, we can determine which strategies can elicit the most beneficial outcome for you and the information and expert testimony necessary to build your strongest case. Also, our lawyers can anticipate the defense's arguments and plan counter-arguments.

Getting started on your injury case

Every case at the Donahey Law Firm begins with an initial consultation at no cost to you. You meet with our attorneys to discuss your injury and the circumstances of the event, and we consider possible avenues to resolve the case to your benefit. We also take this time to explain the steps necessary to conclude the case and win your just compensation as well as explain our contingency fee plan, in which you do not pay attorney fees until we win a settlement or verdict in your favor.

Obtaining information

Personal injury cases are often more complex than they seem. Sometimes, a simple workplace injury can actually be a workers compensation case and a third-party injury claim if a contractor or a party other than your employer created the situation in which you sustained an injury. We review police reports, medical documentation and witness testimony as well as your account of the event to determine what really happened and the type of case you have.

We may consult accident reconstruction experts, healthcare personnel or other industry experts to examine any aspects of the accident that could have been avoided through the defendant's closer attention, such as proper machinery maintenance, design or manufacturing flaws, or inattentive care by medical or nursing home professionals.

Planning a solid strategy

Every injury is unique, as is every personal injury case. On occasion, our lawyers can work out a deal with the opposing side without filing an initial complaint, resolving your case quickly and at far less expense to you. If that is not possible, we file a lawsuit on your behalf and negotiate a beneficial settlement for you without a trial, again saving you time and money. At Donahey Law Firm, we are able to resolve most cases using this method. However, if an agreeable settlement cannot be reached, we take your case to court, fighting before a judge to win you the compensation you deserve.

Regardless of the method, our experienced personal injury litigators do what is best for you and your case, and we have a record of substantial success. Review some of our verdicts and settlements by clicking here.
