Hi everyone. Kyle E. Wright here with Ruck and Wright Law, coming to you with our next video series!

So, one question I get asked really frequently is whether you should talk to the insurance adjuster after you're in an accident. I guess I would say yes and no. So, when you're in a motor vehicle accident, there's going to be two claims that are working.

So, what's the difference between an attorney and a herd of buffalo? Well, the attorney charges more. I love a good lawyer joke, and the best part of lawyer jokes is they're usually based on facts or experiences that we've had. But there's one term that I want to address with you today, and that's the term ambulance chaser.

It is always nice to help others who may need assistance after an incident. However, if the damage caused by the incident is complex, then providing a witness statement for the police report will prove useful. Accidents often leave behind clues about who was responsible for the incident. If you were there, know that an eyewitness testimony could help investigators identify the at-fault party and a well-crafted witness testimony can be very useful for a personal injury lawyer. It can help them build a stronger case against the at-fault party and help the victim receive a fair settlement.

To start this article, we want to just say that you should always talk to a personal injury attorney before answering any questions from an insurance company. A Toledo, Ohio personal injury attorney can help you prepare for these situations by guiding you through the answers you need to give and helping ensure the insurance company doesn't take advantage of your situation.

Workplace injuries can severely impair someone's ability to function normally. Most often, worker's comp and permanent disability benefits help people recover from these injuries.

But first, the basics of workers' compensation

Workers' comp is a monetary payment paid by an employee's company when they get hurt at work. It covers lost wages and medical expenses, among other things. It provides benefits to the injured employee at the cost of relinquishing their right to take any additional legal action against the employer in relation to the accident.

A personal injury lawyer helps people who have been injured by someone else's negligence.

When considering hiring an attorney, it is important to consider your own ability to handle the negotiations. Insurance companies and adjustors may be intimidating, but they do not know everything about what you are experiencing. They also cannot read your mind. You must decide if you are able to negotiate a fair settlement. You should know that you do not have to negotiate alone. A personal injury law firm will be able to help to assist you. 

We can not thank Judge Aram Ohanian enough for allowing Karter Wright, Attorney Kyle E. Wright’s son, to tour the Perrysburg Municipal Courthouse! Karter was so excited to visit the courthouse and to meet Judge Ohanian! Maybe Karter will take over the practice one day, or he will become a judge - the future is bright!

Hi everybody, Kyle Wright with Ruck & Wright Law coming at you with another video!

Today I'm outside my office enjoying this beautiful day. But, one thing that's not so beautiful about this season is that summer tends to be when the most accidents happen.

Hi everyone, Kyle E. Wright coming to you with our next video series!

Here is a common misconception that I, as an injury attorney, hear pretty frequently. It's a funny one where people don't want to pursue a claim when they're in an accident because they don't want to "ruin the person who caused the accident's life," or "destroy their credit," or "cause their rates to skyrocket."

What is Estate Planning?

Before you leave behind everything you own, most people draft a will to ensure their estate is distributed correctly to their surviving family and friends. This preparation of tasks that serve to manage your asset base in the event of incapacitation or death is called Estate Planning. But there is actually much more that needs to be taken care of. If you want to ensure that those you leave behind do not have to deal with more strife while mourning your passing, here are some steps you should take!
