Legal Question in Personal Injury in Ohio

Re: My daughter ripped her hand open at Buca Di Beppo

Each injury claim is different and the actual amount will vary based on its own circumstances. However, she would be entitled to more than just the medical bills. She would be entitled to compensation for pain and suffering as well. If you would like to discuss the matter further, please contact me.

The claims handler is most likely hoping that you will submit your bills to your health insurance and the claim will go away!

Have you heard from anyone from the restaurant directly or just the insurance? What is reasonable?

1. All medical bills paid including mileage, parking, prescriptions, etc.!

2. something for the pain.

3. some money for inability to do the things that she normally enjoys doing (loss of enjoyment of life) Until the wound is fully healed.

4. Money for any scar or other disfigurement.

5. If there is a scar, money to pay for any revision of the scar that may be necessary in the future.

In addition, the parents are entitled to some amount of money for what is called a loss of services claim.

How much money for each of these categaories? That can vary widely depending on the age of your daughter, the location of the wound. The visibility of any scar etc.

I have been doing this for 30+ years and will be happy to talk to you free of charge or obligation.

Best of luck

Many times too often the insurance compnay drags their feet in hopes that it will just go away. Your daughter is definitely entitled to more than just the medical bills. I understand that you might not be a person who runs out and hires an attorney, as most people aren't. That is what the insurance company for the restaraunt is counting on. You should definitely cease all comunications with the insurance company and speak to an attorney. Feel fre to contact me. 216..227..0900.
