Relentless Advocacy for Motor Vehicle and Motorcycle Accidents
A serious traffic crash can leave you with severe physical injuries, permanent disability, and astronomical medical bills. Insurance corporations frequently attempt to minimize payout amounts or avoid liability altogether, especially in high-stakes motorcycle accidents or commercial truck crashes. If you have been injured due to a negligent driver and need a lawyer urgently to preserve key evidence, Barry M. Ward Co. LPA is prepared to take immediate action. We thoroughly investigate the circumstances of your wreck, consult with accident reconstruction experts, and build a persuasive case designed to secure the maximum compensation for your pain, suffering, medical bills, and lost earnings.
Sophisticated Counsel for Medical Malpractice and Wrongful Death
We place our lives in the hands of medical professionals, but when a doctor, surgeon, or hospital nurse makes a preventable medical error, the results are often catastrophic. Medical malpractice lawsuits in Ohio are incredibly complex, requiring exhaustive research, expert physician reviews, and a deep understanding of standard medical care. Our legal team has decades of experience challenging major hospital groups and insurance companies, proving negligence in cases involving surgical mistakes, birth injuries, and misdiagnosis. We also represent surviving family members in wrongful death claims, helping them secure the financial security and accountability they need during a time of profound grief.
Professional Criminal Defense and Comprehensive Probate Services
In addition to our personal injury practice, Barry M. Ward Co. LPA is a powerful advocate for those facing state or federal criminal charges, including DUI, drug possession, assault, and major felonies. We represent our clients at every stage of the criminal justice system, fighting to protect their constitutional rights and freedom. We also provide comprehensive probate law services, guiding families through the administration of estates, wills, and guardianship proceedings. We offer free initial consultations for accident cases and operate on a contingent fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we recover compensation. Contact our office today to discuss your legal options with a dedicated advocate.
