Evidence of Fault and Liability in a Car Accident Case

If another driver’s negligence caused your car accident, they may be liable for your damages. In a head-on collision, driver negligence may include:

Failure to yield
Running a stop sign or red light
Passing illegally
Traveling the wrong direction on a one-way street
Driving while intoxicated
And more

These types of accidents may also involve liability from a negligence mechanic, municipality, or another non-driver party.

While you work on recuperating from the injuries you suffered in the accident, the Fitch Law Firm LLC can work to identify the responsible party and collect evidence of their liability. This evidence may include:

The police crash report
Witness statements
All accident-related medical records
Traffic camera footage and photos, if available
Testimony from accident reconstruction experts
And more

Let your lawyer know if you have any additional evidence related to your accident. A complete evidence file that establishes the negligence of the responsible party may help you recover compensation.

Medical Expenses and Other Potentially Recoverable Damages

It is important to receive medical care as soon as possible after your accident. Even minor injuries may require treatment. If you wait too long to see a doctor, the responsible party may challenge your claim by alleging that your injuries came from some other source and not the car accident.

Keep careful track of your medical expenses after you are injured in a head-on collision. These expenses may start at the scene of the accident with any emergency medical care you receive. As you recover, your medical bills may continue and include:

Hospital admissions
Required medications
Assistive medical devices
In-home medical assistance
Treatment-related transportation
Physical and occupational therapy
And more

If you can establish the responsible party’s liability, accident-related medical expenses such as these may be recoverable damages in your case. Keeping careful track of these expenses is important, especially if your treatment is long term.

Additional Damages in a Car Accident Case

According to Ohio Revised Code (ORC) § 2315.18, in addition to accident-related medical expenses, the following damages may be recoverable in a personal injury case:

Lost wages and salary
Property repair or replacements costs
Pain and suffering
Disfigurement
Mental anguish
And more

A Cincinnati head-on collisions lawyer from the Fitch Law Firm LLC can collect evidence of your damages and their value when we represent you. In addition to medical bills and car repair receipts, this may include documentation from your employers about your lost wages and testimony from medical and economic experts.

When we looked into seeking representation after my son's car accident we did not know anybody who had experience with as an attorney with car wrecks. So we looked online at all the firms that specialize in auto accidents, then by using as our criteria the reviews we selected The Fitch Law firm. Right from the start they were extremely helpful . They explained how the process would go based on our specifics of the accident and then basically did all the work to file a claim and get all that we were entitled to. Working with Becky and Kirstin was perfect, they kept us informed every step of the way and if we had questions they had time to explain them making sure we understood each time. Our case was not a high dollar amount but they still offered above average service and looked out for us like it was. I highly recommend The Fitch Law firm without hesitation.

Our experience with the Fitch Law Firm was incredible. We worked with Kirstin, and she's really gone above and beyond for us. I cannot recommend them highly enough. After our car accident, we were so overwhelmed by the insurance companies, and Kirstin made everything so easy for us. We never would have gotten such a good settlement without her. They seem to really care about their clients, and they are very responsive. They worked hard to answer our questions thoroughly and in a timely manner.

I was involved in an accident as the passenger of the responsible party during Feb. of 2020. I completed physical therapy in June of the same year. I worked with a firm that was not as responsive as I would have liked, so I sought representation elsewhere to ensure the claim was handled correctly. I couldn’t have been more fortunate to task The Fitch Law Firm with this case. Associate attorney Kirstin Peterson was assigned to my case, and I couldn’t have asked for someone so thorough, professional, responsive and down right genuinely caring than her. There were some unforeseen obstacles, but throughout my doubts she maintained consistent in reassuring me she was doing everything she could to make sure things were going as smoothly as possible. I highly recommend this firm and having nothing but more than positive things to say about the associate attorney assigned to my case. Thank you so much Fitch Law Firm, and Kirstin Peterson. You guys are extraordinary in what you do!

I was in a car accident on 10/21/2018 that was not my fault. I googled different accident laywers. And came across the fitch law firm. From the first time i walked thru the doors mr fitch and becky made me feel at ease. Mr fitch thought my case woukd be good to take on. The other parties insurance was extremely difficult to deal with.and i can say mr fitch represented me well. And Becky checked in on me and kept me updated on the case. Its been 2 years and my case finally settled i was ok with the amount given. And i will use the fitch law firm again if ever needed.
