What is The Statute of Limitations for a Personal Injury Claim in Ohio?

The Statute of Limitations is the time limit that an injured plaintiff has to file a claim. The claimant has to file a claim in Ohio no later than two years from the cause of action. An individual has two years to file a personal injury claim (§ 2305.10) in the Buckeye State from the date that the injury occurred.

Claims that are made outside of this two year limitation period significantly risk the ability to recover compensation for the damages. If the statute of limitations has expired the injured party has missed the window to file a claim and thus will not be able to file a claim for the injuries suffered.

To prevent any potential deadlines from being missed, contact a Dayton personal injury lawyer shortly after the accident occurred. Not only will this event be fresh in the individual’s mind, but the attorney will have ample time to file the necessary paperwork for the injury claim.

§2305.15 (A) states that if a person is out of the state, or in hiding in the state, the time limit will not begin to run until that person returns to the state or reveals themselves and ends their concealment. §2305.15 (B) allows an individual that has suffered injury and the accused perpetrator is in prison, that time the defendant spends in prison will not contribute towards the time limit associated with the statute of limitations.

How Can I Ensure I Do Not Miss the Statute of Limitations in Ohio?

After an accident occurs, it is imperative to first seek medical treatment from medical professionals. After treatment has been received, an injured victim may seek legal advice from an experienced personal injury attorney. A personal injury attorney will be able to identify the amount of time that an injured victim has to file a personal injury claim and will assist the plaintiff through the legal path. However, it is advisable that a plaintiff contact an attorney as soon as possible after an accident. The longer an injured victim waits to contact an attorney to describe the facts surrounding their personal injury case, the longer this event has to dissipate through an injured victim’s mind. By reaching out to an attorney shortly after the accident, a legal professional will be able to assist personal injury victims file the necessary paperwork to avoid any potential deadline issues.
