Ohio Recreational Vehicle Accidents
Recreational vehicles such as all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), snowmobiles, jet skis, and boats are difficult to insure, while the claims resulting from serious or fatal RV accidents are often denied by insurance providers. Meanwhile, ATVs and other RVs tend to be unstable and riders drive them in challenging situations. If you have suffered a serious injury or lost a loved one as the result of an ATV or other recreational vehicle accident, it is important to have a well-qualified attorney evaluate your case and investigate all possible sources of compensation for your loss.

Do not assume there is no insurance coverage or that your accident is not covered under an existing policy. A number of policies may be responsible for medical expenses and other losses. Our attorneys will explain how many factors are involved in a successful claim and consider related questions:
- Was the injured person the driver or a passenger?
- Did the accident or resulting injury result from defective equipment such as a failed helmet, after-market modification, or failed brakes?
- Did an essential design defect intended to improve aerodynamics of the boat or RV cause it to be unstable?
- Was the negligence of a property owner or a concealed hazard the cause of the crash?
- Was alcohol a factor in the snowmobile, jet ski, or ATV wreck?
Our firm has the resources to conduct a thorough investigation. If an RV flips and crushes a child, the manufacturer and insurance company may deny responsibility, claiming driver error. However our lawyers will have the vehicle impounded, hire experts to determine the cause of the accident, and aggressively pursue the case on our client's behalf.
