COMPENSATION FOR TRUCK ACCIDENT INJURIES IN OHIO

Compensation for trucking accidents vary based on the individual circumstances including the severity of the accident, the amount of medical treatment needed, and other damages suffered as a result of the accident. Compensation can include the following:

  • Medical expenses
  • Lost income
  • Reduced earning capacity
  • Disability
  • Disfigurement
  • Pain and suffering
  • Mental anguish
  • Loss of consortium
  • Property damages

All these financial, psychological, and physical damages are compensable damages in Ohio. The settlement or judgment you receive is intended to make you whole—as if the accident never occurred. Sometimes, punitive damages may also be recoverable. Punitive damages are meant to punish a driver for extremely egregious conduct and not meant to compensate the victim. Punitive damages are rare in Ohio car accident cases. If you were injured in a car accident or involved in an accident where the other driver was driving a truck and was extremely reckless, contact the Columbus truck accident lawyers at SELPH LAW to discuss what compensation you may be entitled to receive.
