Car Accident Lawyer in Dayton, Ohio: Protect Your Rights and Maximize Compensation
Your Recovery Starts With The Kollin Firm
No one expects to get into a car accident when they leave home. Crashes happen without warning and can change your life in an instant. Since 1996, Attorney Tom Kollin has been a strong advocate for accident victims across the Miami Valley. He knows that each case represents a real person or family working hard to heal, manage bills, and deal with insurance companies.
Today’s insurance companies are backed by laws that allow them rights to the proceeds from your case. You need more than just a personal injury lawyer. You need someone who is also skilled in ERISA and reimbursement law so that your final recovery is truly protected.
As your Dayton car accident attorney, our job at The Kollin Firm is to make sure you are not alone as insurers work to limit their responsibility.
We Act Right Away to Protect You
After a crash, your first steps should be getting medical care and protecting your legal rights. We move quickly to:
- Collect and organize your medical records and treatment plans from top specialists
- Handle all conversations with insurance so you do not end up making statements that could harm your claim
- Gather every piece of evidence, from the accident scene to witness statements and photographs
- Obtain police reports and, if needed, conduct a reconstruction if liability is disputed
- Make sure your vehicle is repaired properly, and your rental or transport needs are met

Navigating Ohio’s Car Accident Laws
Ohio’s laws are detailed and can be confusing. Your recovery often comes down to how well your Greene County car accident attorney understands the rules and the unique details of your case. Attorney Tom Kollin is dedicated to making each rule work for your benefit:
Modified Comparative Negligence (Ohio Revised Code § 2315.33): You can be partly at fault and still recover damages, as long as your share of the fault is less than half. If any fault is assigned to you, your compensation is reduced by that amount–this makes it essential to get the facts right.
Minimum Insurance (Ohio Revised Code § 4509.51): State law sets minimum coverage amounts but in serious accidents, those limits might not come close to covering all your injuries. Our team searches for every dollar of available coverage.
Uninsured and Underinsured Claims: If the other driver does not have enough insurance, your own policy may step in. We are experienced in making these types of claims work for you.
Two-Year Filing Deadline (Ohio Revised Code § 2305.10): You have exactly two years from the accident date to file most claims. Missing that deadline means you may lose your right to recovery, no matter how strong your case.

From Accident to Resolution: Our Proven Process
Advice for Car Accident Victims From a Greene County Car Accident Lawyer
- Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize compensation and may record your statements. Let us handle all conversations for you.
- Do not rush—quick settlement offers rarely reflect the true cost of your injuries.
- Keep every document, bill, and record. We will organize them to support your case.
- Pay attention to the two-year filing rule. Insurers like to delay and pressure you as deadlines get closer.
- Remember, what seems like a minor injury can turn out to be much more serious later. Never make decisions before your full condition is known.
