You do not have to come in
A first conversation happens by phone, and most of a claim is handled by phone, post and email afterwards. If you are injured, without transport, or simply find travel difficult, that is common and it is not an obstacle.

Hamilton, OH 45011
This is the office that handles Hamilton cases. It is a real office with a real team in it, but the work reaches you, not the other way round.
Serving Hamilton and Butler County
Most of the people who call this office are not looking for a lawyer. They are looking for someone to tell them what happens next. After a crash on the way to work, after a letter from Social Security that says no, after a claim their employer has decided to fight. That first conversation is usually less about law than about getting the ground back under you.
We take three kinds of case from Hamilton and the towns around it: injuries from vehicle collisions, Social Security Disability claims, and Ohio workers’ compensation. They overlap more often than people expect. One bad afternoon can open a workers’ comp claim and an injury claim at the same time, and if the injury does not heal, a disability claim after that. Handling all three under one roof means nobody has to explain the same accident to three different firms.
Who this office is for
If you were hurt in a vehicle collision or at work, being local matters. Your treatment, your records, your employer and, if it comes to it. The venue where the claim is heard are all here. That is the work this office is built around.
If your case is Social Security Disability, you do not have to be anywhere near Hamilton. SSDI is a federal program. We represent claimants across Ohio, and a great deal of a disability case is documents, deadlines and a hearing that is now very often held by phone or video. Where you live is rarely the thing that decides it.
The communities we serve from here
If your town is not on that list, it is still worth asking. We would rather tell you honestly that a case is not ours, and point you at someone whose it is, than leave you working it out on your own while a deadline runs.
What happens after you call
Nothing about the first call is a commitment. You describe what happened, we ask the questions that decide whether there is a claim, and you get a straight answer about where you stand, including if the answer is that you do not need us.
If there is a case, we take the paperwork from there. Records, forms, deadlines, the calls from the adjuster: that becomes our job, not yours. The point of hiring a firm when you are hurt is that you stop being the one chasing it.
- One call, no forms Tell us what happened in your own words.
- A straight answer Including when the answer is no.
- We chase the paperwork Records and filings stop being yours.
- No fee unless we win Paid from the recovery, never up front.
The cases we handle here
These three pages explain the work itself: what a claim involves, what it costs, and which deadlines are absolute. This page is about starting one from Hamilton. Each links straight through.
Vehicle Accidents
Car, truck and motorcycle collisions in and around Hamilton, and the adjuster who rings before you have seen a doctor.
Social Security Disability
SSDI denials, appeals and hearings. Most claims are turned down first time; the appeal is where the case is actually made.
Workers' Compensation
Ohio BWC claims, denials and appeals for people hurt at work in Hamilton, including when the employer disputes it.
We know how things work in Hamilton
Two claims with identical facts can go very differently depending on where they are heard and who hears them. That is not cynicism about the system. It is how any system with people in it works. Hearing offices have their own rhythms. Some venues move quickly and some do not. Filing conventions vary. Knowing those things in advance does not change the law, but it changes how a case is prepared and what a client can realistically be told about timing.
Claims in Hamilton are heard and administered locally, so the venue matters: who decides what, where the paperwork goes, and how long each step tends to take in Butler County. That is the practical value of a firm that works here rather than one that files from three hours away.
What we will not do is tell you we know something we have not verified. The offices below are checkable facts about real institutions, confirmed by the firm rather than written from memory. Where something has not been confirmed it is left out rather than guessed at.
Social Security hearings for this area are held by the Cincinnati Office of Hearings Operations, in the John W. Peck Federal Building at 550 Main Street, Cincinnati, OH 45202. Its telephone number is 877-405-7672 and its fax is 833-619-0569.
Workers compensation appeals for this area are heard by the Industrial Commission of Ohio at 125 E Court St, Unit 600, Cincinnati, OH 45202, telephone 513-357-9750.
Ohio generally allows two years from the date a personal injury claim arises to bring it (Ohio Revised Code § 2305.10), and two years from the date of death in a wrongful death claim (§ 2125.02). Knowing the local venue does not extend either. General information about Ohio law rather than advice on your own facts.
Working with us from Hamilton
Three things worth knowing before you decide whether to get in touch.
Nothing out of your pocket
Our work is handled on a contingency fee. It is paid out of what is recovered, and if there is no recovery there is no fee: no hourly bills, and no retainer to get started.
An attorney, not a chain
Your case is handled by an attorney rather than passed down a line of case handlers you never speak to. If you need an update, you can ask the person doing the work.
Why people in Hamilton call us
Six things that are true about this firm, all of which you can check.
Over ninety years of it
The Casper name has practiced law in Southwest Ohio for more than ninety years. That is not a slogan about quality. It is the reason the firm knows how these claims are handled here rather than in theory.
A family firm, not a call center
Your case is handled by an attorney rather than passed down a line of case handlers you never speak to. When you want an update you can ask the person doing the work.
Referred by other attorneys
Lawyers who do not handle this work send their clients here. It is the referral we are most careful about, because it is made by people who know exactly what they are recommending.
No fee unless we win
No charge for the consultation, no retainer, and no hourly bills. The fee comes out of what is recovered, and if there is no recovery there is no fee.
Four offices, one of them here
We work across Southwest Ohio from four offices, and this page is about the Hamilton one. It is a real office with a real team, and you never have to come into it to get started.
We say no when it is no
If a claim claim is not worth pursuing, or is not ours to take, we will tell you that and point you somewhere better. That is worth more to you than being signed up.
Client Reviews
What our clients say
This is a lawyer here in Hamilton. I called the first time and secretary answered the phone and took my information it wasn't even 10 minutes and one of the lawyers were already calling me back. The information I got about my situation sounds like they know what their talking about and they're ready to fight for you.

I've had the pleasure of knowing Steve Casper for over 20 years. I've always appreciated Steve's integrity, humility, and sense of humor. He's very intelligent and yet down-to-earth. I wholeheartedly trust and recommend Steve and Casper, Casper, Casper.

I was injured on the job a while ago, and my employer decided that instead of taking care of me, they would let me go, even though I reported the injury. I contacted Dan Allnutt, of Casper, Casper & Casper, and told him my problem. He and his team went to work and got me the surgery i needed, and the workman's compensation I was due to get back to where I am today. Kim Chupka was an incredible rock, and every time I had a complaint or question, she was always there, with an answer.

Doug Casper helped me with my Workman's Compensation claim, including a hearing before the Ohio Industrial Commission, in which he was successful. He was able to obtain total compensation for my hearing aids, which were desperately needed after a profession where I was continously over-exposed to very high decibel noise. Thank you Doug Casper!

I had been working with a large firm for YEARS all to get a letter that said wish you well in the future. Now Casper, Casper & Casper have took action immediately and have been more than proactive in my case in less than month. Very professional and outstanding care and they call you back within the same day.

Questions
Questions from people in Hamilton
General information, not legal advice. Every case turns on its own facts. The only way to know where yours stands is to have someone look at it.
Do I have to come to the Hamilton office?
No, and certainly not to begin. A first conversation happens by phone, and a great deal of a claim is handled by phone, post and email after that. If you are injured, without transport, or simply find travel difficult, say so. That is common and it is not an obstacle. The office is here and it is real; you just do not have to sit in it to get started.
What does it cost to talk to a Hamilton lawyer?
Nothing. The consultation is free and carries no obligation, and plenty of people call simply to find out whether they have something worth pursuing. If we take the case it is handled on a contingency fee, so it is paid out of what is recovered rather than out of your pocket, no hourly bills and no retainer to get started.
Do you have to be near Hamilton for a Social Security Disability case?
No. SSDI is a federal program and we represent claimants across Ohio. Much of a disability case is documents, medical evidence and deadlines, and hearings are now very often held by phone or video. Where you live is rarely what decides it. A vehicle or work-injury claim is different: those are tied to where the injury happened and where the case would be heard, so being local does matter there.
Which communities around Hamilton do you serve?
We work across Southwest Ohio from four offices, and this one handles Hamilton and Butler County. If your town is not listed, it is still worth asking.
Can I call more than one kind of claim in at once?
Yes, and it happens often. A single incident can open a workers’ compensation claim and an injury claim together, and a disability claim later if the injury does not resolve. Describe the whole thing on the first call rather than trying to sort it into categories yourself, working out which claims exist is our job, not yours.
How quickly should I get in touch?
Sooner is genuinely better, for two reasons. Evidence goes stale: vehicles get repaired, scenes change, witnesses become harder to find. And every one of these claims has a deadline that does not bend.
