Texting And Driving

Trust our Ohio attorneys after your accident

Texting while driving is against the law in Ohio. Even so, many drivers break this law and read, write or send a texting while driving in Ohio. And when they do, many drivers end up causing serious car accidents because they’re not paying attention to everything around them.

If you or a loved one has been injured in accident caused by a texting driver in Ohio, you need to take immediate legal action to protect your rights. You need a law firm on your side that knows how the legal system works and knows what needs to be done. You need Merriman Legal, LLC.

Located in Cleveland and serving accident victims throughout Ohio, our experienced legal team has a strong track record of success. In case after case, we consistently obtain sizable settlements and verdicts for injury victims and their families. That’s why we want to meet with you.

Your legal rights

Ohio’s laws clearly state that all drivers cannot text while driving. For drivers under 18 years old, texting while driving is a primary offense, meaning a police officer can stop a younger driver and cite them for texting while driving.

For drivers over 18 years old in Ohio, texting while driving is secondary offense. That means the police officer can only stop a texting driver over 18 if the police officer observes the driver doing something else illegal.

But just because a driver seemed to be texting at the time of the accident, that doesn’t automatically mean that you will be fairly compensated for your accident. That’s because many drivers deny texting at the time of a crash. And that’s where we can help you.

We can help

As your attorney, we can demand to see the cellphone records for the driver who caused your crash. And if the driver or the driver’s cellphone company refuses to cooperate, we can take them to court and demand to see such records.

We also know how to analyze accident reports and search for evidence to build a stronger case. In addition, we regularly consult with experts in their field. We leave no stone unturned in pursuit of justice.
