Earning Compensation In Uninsured/Underinsured Accidents

When a driver causes you to suffer an injury in an accident and they do not have sufficient insurance or insurance at all, they may leave you to bear the cost of their mistake. But, under Ohio law, you may still have options to cover the cost of your injury and recovery.

At Perantinides & Nolan, Co., L.P.A., our Ohio personal injury lawyers help our clients explore every option to pursue the ideal outcome in their personal injury claims. We know the cost of recovery in these cases, and it is our privilege to recover the compensation you deserve.

Options For Compensation

When the cost of your medical bills or property damages falls onto you, there are several options to help you secure fair compensation after being in a motor vehicle accident with a negligent driver. If you have underinsured motorist coverage with your own insurance company, they may be able to provide you with the compensation you need.

You may also be able to file a claim directly against the liable party, rather than their insurance company. Additionally, if a third party was liable for your accident, such as a construction company that created road hazards, you may be able to secure fair compensation for your injuries from them.

We take the time to review your unique situation to determine which course of action is best for you to secure the fair and full settlement you deserve for your injuries.

Trust In Our Guidance

We have decades of experience representing thousands of Ohioans with the most challenging personal injury claims. Contact our Akron office by calling 330-253-5454 or emailing us here. If you have been in a car accident with an uninsured or underinsured driver, now is the best time to reach out to an attorney, so call today.

Camp Lejeune Water Contamination Lawsuit

Military personnel and their families deserve nothing less than safety and good health for their humble service of our country. 

The Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2022 has recently brought to light the presence of dangerous toxic chemicals in the Camp Lejeune and MCAS New River drinking water between the years 1953 through 1987. 

Routine testing of the water supply at Camp Lejeune in 1982 found that two out of the eight water supplies at Camp Lejeune; Hadnot Point and Tarawa Terrace, were found to be contaminated with highly toxic chemicals for over 30 years.

These drinking water sources were contaminated with benzene, trichloroethylene (TCE), tetrachloroethylene, or perchloroethylene (PCE), and vinyl chloride (VC), all of which are known to be carcinogenic and/or harmful to humans. 

Water contamination sources at Camp Lejeune included cleaning solvents, fuel pollutants, and other pollution from leaking underground water storage tanks and waste disposal sites. Most of the contaminated wells were closed by February of 1985.

Marines, their families, and civilian workers stationed at Camp Lejeune and others who lived or worked on base at any time during the affected years may have been exposed to these contaminants. Contamination of water in some cases was shown to be up to 300 times the acceptable levels of these substances causing civilians, military, and families to potentially get sick, and even die.

If you or a loved one served, lived, or worked on US Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, North Carolina from August 1, 1953 - December 31, 1987, you may be entitled to compensation if you‘ve since been diagnosed with a number of different health conditions.

Exposure may have lead to the following cancers, diseases, or complications:

• Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)
• Bladder cancer
• Brain cancer
• Breast cancer
• Cardiac defect
• Central Nervous System cancer (CNS)
• Cervical cancer
• Colon cancer
• Epilepsy
• Esophageal cancer
• Fatty liver disease (hepatic steatosis)
• Female Infertility
• Hodgkins Lymphoma
• Immune disorders
• Kidney cancer
• Kidney damage
• Kidney disease
• Laryngeal cancer
• Leukemia
• Liver cancer
• Lung cancer
• Miscarriage
• Multiple myeloma
• Myelodysplastic syndromes (“MDS” or aplastic anemia)
• Nerve damage
• Neurobehavioral effects
• Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma
• Ovarian cancer
• Parkinson’s disease
• Prostate cancer
• Rectal cancer
• Renal toxicity/disease
• Scleroderma

“The Camp Lejeune Justice Act” is a bi-partisan bill currently working its way through Congress with the mission to grant Camp Lejeune’s victims the help to attain legal assistance needed to receive overdue justice and compensation they deserve for the serious health conditions which may have arose due to exposure to these toxic chemicals.

FAQs About The Camp Lejeune Water Contamination Lawsuit

Who Can We Help?

If you or a loved one spent time at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune or Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) New River in North Carolina between the years 1953-1987, have suffered adverse health complications as listed above, and are now residing in the State of Ohio, you may be entitled to compensation.

Can I File a Claim and How?

While there is no way to currently file a claim, there is a bill pending in the United States Senate that, if passed, would open up the opportunity those who lived or worked at Camp Lejeune for 30 days or more, between 1953 and 1987, and got sick as a result would be entitled to file a claim. Claims would be able to then be filed regardless of the date of diagnosis.

Once the Bill Passes, How long do we have to file a claim?

The law will allow those who qualify to file claims for TWO YEARS from the date the bill is signed into law. Any claim thereafter could be subject to dismissal.

What if a potential victim is deceased?

Deceased individuals, regardless of when they passed, can qualify for a claim through their family and/or representative. Their family may be entitled to compensation if the death was related to the contaminated water.

Dog Bites

Dogs are not supposed to bite people, but unfortunately, they still do. When a person in Ohio is bitten by a dog, they have certain legal rights.

If you have been injured by a dog bite, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries and other losses. There are several ways you may be able to recover compensation for your dog bite injuries under Ohio law. The experienced attorneys at Perantinides & Nolan in Ohio can assist you if you decide to take legal action against a responsible party for the dog bite injuries you have sustained.

Understanding Ohio's Dog Bite Laws

Ohio Revised Code section 955.28 states that the owners and harborers of dogs that bite people can be held strictly liable for the injuries caused by the dog.

- A “harborer” is typically considered to be the person who has possession or control of a dog.

Landlords are generally not considered to be “Harborers” under Ohio law, but CAN be held liable if their tenant’s dog bits someone in a common area such as a sidewalk, parking lot, foyer, or hallway, or if the dog bite occurred in an area shared by both the landlord and the tenant.

Owners of dogs that bite people may be able to avoid liability if it is shown that the bitten person was a trespasser on the Owner/Harborer’s property or was teasing or torturing the dog at the time they were bitten.

You and your attorney will have to prove to obtain compensation under the Ohio statute:

- The defendant owned or harbored the dog at the time of the incident.

- The victim sustained injuries from the dog bite.

- The injured party did not commit a crime, trespass, or did not annoy the dog.

- The defendant knew of the dog’s viciousness, and the dog was kept negligently after the keeper knew of its viciousness.

Strict Liability in Dog Bite Cases

When you want to file a lawsuit in Ohio against an owner, keeper, or harborer of a dog based upon injuries you have sustained from a dog bite, Ohio law provides a number of different theories of recovery including strict liability and negligence. The attorneys at Perantinides & Nolan can advise you as to the best course for you. 

Is a landlord considered a “Harborer”?

Landlords are generally NOT considered a “harborer” of a tenant’s dog in the following circumstances:

- A landlord can be liable if the tenant’s dog attacks someone in a common area or an area shared by both the landlord and the tenant. 

- Common areas include sidewalks, parking lots, foyers, and hallways.

If you are bitten by a dog, what should you do?

If a dog bites you, you should take the following 5 steps after the dog attack.

1. Be sure to seek immediate medical attention and keep all information you obtain from your medical care.

You should be treated for your injuries immediately after an attack. Dog bites have a high risk for infection and can be quite harmful. It is also crucial to retain all documentation about your dog bite treatment.

2. Write down the details of the dog bite, including the location of the bite and the contact information for the dog’s owner or harborer. You should also note any witnesses to the bite and photograph all of your injuries.

Note the details of the dog bite, including the location the bite occurred and the name and contact information of the dog owner/harborer.

You may also want to ask the dog’s owner/harborer if they have homeowner’s insurance, and if so, the name of the insurance company.

Write down the names and addresses and phone numbers of any person who witnessed the bite. This information will be helpful when attempting to submit a legal claim in addition to your treatment documents.

3. Contact the police to file a police report.

Contact the authorities and obtain a police report.

4. Contact your local health commissioner within 24 hours to file a report.

You should also make a report within 24 hours of the occurrence with the local health commissioner.

5. Contact a Dog Bite Attorney You Can Trust

• Medical Care: You have the right to be informed about your medical condition, medications, and to see you own doctor. You also have the right to refuse medications and treatments.
• Cleanliness: The nursing home should provide a clean, sanitized environment, help keep patients clean, and staff should wash hands before caring for each patient. Staff should wear proper PPE when necessary.

Defective Products & Product Liability

If you have suffered an injury due to a defective product, our attorneys in Akron, Ohio may be able to help you obtain compensation under the law of product liability. 

When you buy a product, you place a certain implicit trust in the designer, manufacturer, and seller of that product.  This law protects the rights of consumers by holding manufacturers and suppliers potentially liable for any injuries that result from flaws in the design, manufacture, or marketing of a product. Depending on the type of defect, a product liability suit can be brought against anyone involved in the creation or sale of the product, including the designer, manufacturer, distributor, and retailer. As long as the product was at one point “sold” during the normal course of business, the suit can be filed on behalf of anyone who was injured by the product, not simply the legal owner.

In many product liability cases, our attorneys in Akron are not required to give evidence of negligence against any specific party, particularly in those cases involving manufacturing defects. In such cases, the defect itself is considered sufficient evidence that negligence occurred at some point during the manufacture of the product. In suits brought against the designer, however, it is usually necessary to present evidence of negligence, usually demonstrating that a product was inherently unsafe from the beginning, and that safer alternatives existed but were not used. The most common marketing defects involve inadequate labeling and the failure to warn consumers of potential dangers that could arise from normal use of the product.

What is common to all product liability cases filed by our attorneys in Akron is the necessity to demonstrate that your injury was indeed caused by a defect in the product, and that this defect rendered the product unsafe to use for its intended purpose. Each product is held to a unique standard of safety, a standard that is presumed to have been met when the product is made publicly and legally available to consumers for purchase. When this standard has not been met for any reason, the product is considered unreasonably dangerous, and any injuries that result from this may be actionable. Obviously, this standard would be far different for a power saw as compared with a cellular telephone. Our defective product attorneys in Akron assess each potential product liability claim on a case-by-case basis, carefully evaluating all the circumstances of the case to determine whether it is wise to proceed with legal action.

Not everyone who has been injured by a product is necessarily eligible for compensation. For example, people who alter a product against manufacturer specifications or ignore clear warning labels may have disqualified themselves from seeking damages. Likewise, if you are injured by a clearly unsafe product to which no reasonably safe alternative exists and were properly advised of potential hazards involved in its normal use, you may not have a valid product liability claim. Still, the best course of action if you have been injured by a product is to consult a qualified attorney immediately, particularly if you are unsure as to who is at fault. There is no harm in soliciting a legal opinion, and you may well be entitled to damages. Our product liability attorneys in Akron would be pleased to evaluate your case at no charge to you.

Some Product Liability and Defective Products Cases We Handle Include:

• Appliances
• Automobiles
• Contact Lens Solution
• Furniture
• Ladders
• Medical Supplies
