ABOUT JOSEPH A. FRALEY, PARTNER

Joe graduated from Ohio Northern University and Capital University Law School in 1991 and immediately began practicing in the firm Pencheff, King, and Forman. The managing partner, Peter Pencheff, had founded the firm in 1953 solely to represent injured workers before the Industrial Commission of Ohio. After three years Joe was made partner in the firm, and expanded the areas of practice to include personal injury claims including car accidents, wrongful death, and intentional tort claims. In 2008 his firm merged with the firm of Mitchell, Allen, Catalano & Boda. In 2020 the firm changed back to Pencheff & Fraley LPA upon Bill Catalano and Dan Boda’s retirements.

Frequent Questions...

After a car accident or another injury accident, it’s normal to have a lot of questions. Unfortunately, it’s nearly impossible to get clear, honest information from the insurance company. Here, our personal injury lawyers answer some of your most common questions.

I GOT IN AN ACCIDENT. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Immediately after an accident, prioritize your safety. Move to a safe location if possible, seek medical attention, and call the police. Document the accident scene, gather witness information, and avoid discussing fault. Once you’re safe, contact LawyerUp® for guidance on your next steps.

HOW DO I PICK THE BEST PERSONAL INJURY LAW FIRM?

Choose a firm that specializes in injury cases, has a solid reputation, a track record of high settlements, and offers a transparent fee structure. Client testimonials and reviews can also provide insights. LawyerUp® checks all these boxes.

HOW MUCH CAN A PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER TAKE FROM MY SETTLEMENT?

It will always be an upfront contract between you and the lawyer. Typically, a contingency fee arrangement ranges from 25% to 50%. The exact percentage can vary based on the complexity of the case and the state at which it is resolved.

WHAT IS THE AVERAGE SETTLEMENT FOR PERSONAL INJURY CASES?

Settlements vary greatly based on the specifics of each case, such as injury severity, liability clarity, and the involved parties. It’s best to consult with an attorney to understand potential settlement amounts.

CAN YOU TELL ME HOW TO FILE A PERSONAL INJURY CASE?

While you can file a personal injury claim on your own, it’s advisable to work with a skilled attorney. The process involves gathering evidence, determining liability, negotiating with insurers, and possibly filing a lawsuit.

In most states, you generally have four years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, exceptions exist, so consulting an attorney promptly is crucial.

HOW MUCH IS MY CASE WORTH?

The worth of a case is determined by various factors, including medical costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. Schedule a free consultation with LawyerUp® to get an estimate.
