Nobody here is suing a neighbor
Serving Trenton and the surrounding Butler County area from our nearby Hamilton office.
The most common sentence in a first conversation from a town this size is some version of: I do not want to sue anybody.
It is a decent instinct and it is usually based on a misunderstanding of what happens. In an ordinary vehicle claim you are not taking anything from the person who hit you. You are claiming against the insurance policy they bought precisely so that this would be covered, and in the great majority of cases they never appear, never pay a penny themselves, and are not personally affected by the outcome.
Workers’ compensation is further still from a lawsuit. It is a state system, it requires nobody to have done anything wrong, and using it is not an accusation against an employer.
Social Security Disability is not a claim against anyone at all. It is a benefit funded by the payroll taxes you have already paid, and applying for it is closer to claiming a pension than to bringing a case.
The cases we handle here
Only the first involves a claim against another person, and even then it is against their insurer rather than against them.
Claims in Trenton
Trenton is a small industrial town next door to Middletown, and its claims look like that: work injuries at local employers, and road collisions on the routes between the two.
Small town, same county. Trenton matters are heard at the Butler County Court of Common Pleas at 315 High Street in Hamilton, inside the Government Services Center, along with the rest of Butler County.
In a place this size people often wait, because they know the other driver or they do not want to make a fuss. Ohio generally allows two years from the date a personal injury claim arises to file it (Ohio Revised Code § 2305.10), and waiting rarely makes a claim easier to prove. General information about Ohio law, not advice on your own facts.

Questions from Trenton
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.
The person who hit me is somebody I know.
That is more common in a small town than anywhere else, and it is the reason people leave real claims unmade. The claim is against their insurer, not against them. In an ordinary case they are not out of pocket and they are not asked to attend anything.
Will making a workers' comp claim cost me my job?
Retaliating against somebody for making a claim is not permitted, and if something like it happens the fact that it happened matters. Keep anything in writing. It is a question worth asking early rather than one to sit on.
Is a small claim worth anybody's time?
Ask and find out rather than assuming. If there is nothing here we will tell you so plainly and you will have lost a phone call. We would rather do that than have somebody talk themselves out of a claim that was worth making.
