An Ohio injury lawyer who picks up the phone
An accident can turn your life upside down before you've had a chance to catch your breath. If someone else's negligence left you hurt, an Ohio personal injury lawyer can help you understand exactly where you stand — and what you may be owed. At Spivak & Sakellariou, we've spent years working alongside Ohio families after car accidents, bicycle accidents, pedestrian accidents and truck accidents, serving as Ohio car accident lawyers, Ohio bicycle accident lawyers, Ohio pedestrian accident lawyers, and Ohio truck accident attorneys for clients across the state. Alan and George both hold a commercial driver's license — the same one truckers are required to earn — giving GSAS a rare, firsthand understanding of trucking cases that most firms simply don't have. We work with clients in Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati, and everywhere between, and you don't pay us anything unless we win. Call or text today and talk directly with the attorney who will actually handle your case.
We handle all kinds of Ohio injury claims
Here's what happens once you reach out
Here's what we hear most from Ohio clients
"I was given a ticket"
A ticket is one piece of paper — it isn't the final word on your case. We look at the scene, the reports, and the other driver's history before deciding what your claim is really worth.
"My claim was denied"
A denial isn't the end of the road. We review exactly why the insurer said no, gather the evidence they overlooked, and push back on your behalf.
"I was told I was partly at fault"
Ohio law still lets you recover even when you share some of the blame, as long as you're not found more than half responsible. We build the case that proves how much of this wasn't on you.
A small firm, on purpose
You work with the attorney
Not a case manager, not a call center — from your first call to your final resolution, it's Alan or George.
We've held a CDL ourselves
A rare advantage in trucking cases — we know the rulebook because we've had to learn it firsthand.
We tell you the truth
Even when it's not what you want to hear. You deserve an honest answer, not a sales pitch.
The people who'll actually take your call
Alan Spivak
A Cincinnati native with firsthand experience of the devastation a serious crash brings — and a reputation for answering his own phone.
George Sakellariou
A compassionate and tenacious advocate who understands how much a serious injury can change every part of a person's life.
"I was in an accident that was not my fault, and George helped me get a more than fair settlement. He was trustworthy and attentive from the beginning."
"I've worked with Alan and his firm for 5 years on a personal injury case. They were thorough, honest, and kept me informed every step of the way."
"Working with Alan was one of the best decisions I made. He was attentive, patient, and genuinely cared about my situation."
Ohio injury claims: what people ask us first
Know your rights in Ohio
How fault works in Ohio+
Ohio follows a comparative negligence rule: you can still recover compensation even if you're partly at fault, as long as you're not found more than 50% responsible. Your award is simply reduced by your share of the fault — which is exactly why it's worth having your case reviewed before you assume it's not worth pursuing.
What you can recover+
Medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and compensation for pain and suffering are all potentially on the table. Ohio does place certain limits on non-economic damages in some cases, and the details depend heavily on the facts of your claim — one more reason it helps to have an attorney evaluate your specific situation rather than guess.
Dealing with the insurance company+
Insurers are businesses, and their first offer is rarely their best one. We handle every call and every round of negotiation so you're not left weighing a quick payout against what your case may really be worth.
How long do I have to file?+
Ohio's statute of limitations gives most injury claims a limited window — typically around two years from the date of the accident — to file suit. Waiting too long can cost you the ability to recover anything at all, so it's best to speak with an attorney as soon as you're able.
Why a licensed Ohio attorney matters+
Insurance adjusters negotiate injury claims every single day — it's their job to settle for less than your case is worth. An experienced Ohio injury attorney levels the field. And with Alan and George, you're working with the attorney directly, not a call center or case manager.
