Auto accidents. Motor vehicle accidents are some of the most common causes of serious injuries and deaths in Ohio. Elk + Elk can investigate your crash, identify the at-fault party, gather evidence, and help you pursue fair compensation.
Medical malpractice. Medical malpractice is the negligent lack of appropriate care from a physician or other healthcare professional, resulting in patient injuries or death. Our Ohio medical malpractice attorneys know how to bring physicians to justice.
Birth injuries. Birth injuries are a type of medical malpractice that can injure mother and child. They include brain damage and related conditions such as cerebral palsy. Our Ohio birth injury lawyers have experience handling these claims and achieving positive outcomes.
Workers’ compensation. An accident at work can leave you with confusing legal paperwork. We can help you identify the best action to take to obtain compensation from an insurance company, your employer, or a product manufacturer.
Product defects. A defective auto part, appliance, children’s toy, drug, or medical device could cause serious injuries. We can help you file a product liability claim in Ohio.
Premises defects. If you suffered a slip and fall, swimming pool accident, dog bite, or other premises-related accident, we can help you go up against the careless property owner.
Wrongful death. Wrongful death is a claim against a person who can be held liable for a death. If you lost a loved one due to the fault of another person, you may be eligible for compensation.

Our Ohio personal injury lawyers are here for victims in their times of need. If you do not see your practice area here, contact us to discuss your individual needs.

How much does a personal injury attorney cost?

At Elk + Elk, our injury attorneys operate on a contingency fee basis. We only charge attorney’s fees if we win a financial award on the client’s behalf. If we do win the case, we take a pre-agreed upon percentage of the settlement or verdict we collect. We never bill the client directly or take our fees out of pocket. We believe in giving everyone equal access to justice.
