What Can I File a Claim for in Ohio?

Negligence may be responsible for your current medical condition if:

  • there was a delay in receiving treatment for your diagnosed condition;
  • you received inadequate or inappropriate treatment for your condition; and/or
  • your condition or disease was misdiagnosed or not diagnosed at all.

Building Your Case

Often it is necessary to hire out-of-state doctors as expert witnesses. He or she can testify that another doctor — with similar training and skill — would have done things differently.
