Stop Talking to Their Adjuster. Start Talking to Me.
The moment you were injured, the other side's insurance company started building their case. Their adjuster isn't calling to help you — they're calling to limit what they pay. I've handled insurance carriers for personal injury clients across Northeast Ohio since 1982. When you hire me, I take over all communication with the insurance company from day one. You stop dealing with them. I start.

Free Consultation. No Pressure.
Know Where You Stand.
Ohio law gives you two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury claim. That clock is running — but it doesn't mean you need to rush into a decision. It means you need information now. I evaluate every case in a free consultation with no obligation. You'll know whether you have a claim, what it may be worth, and what happens next. One call answers the question.

Injured Anywhere in Northeast Ohio — Including Outside the State
I represent personal injury clients throughout Cuyahoga County and the surrounding region. If you were hurt in Lorain County, Medina County, Summit County, Lake County, or Mahoning County, I can take your case. And if you're an Ohio resident who was injured in another state, I can still help — that's a situation most Cleveland-area attorneys don't address, and it's one I handle directly.
Questions Injured Clients Ask Before They Call
Who is a good personal injury lawyer in Cleveland, Ohio?
That depends on what you need. If you want direct access to an experienced attorney — not a case manager or associate — and a limited caseload practice where your case gets full attention, I'd encourage you to call me. I've represented personal injury clients in Northeast Ohio since 1982, and I personally handle every case I accept.
Will I actually be able to reach my attorney?
At Condeni Law, yes. My direct line is (216) 574-2012. Patty, my senior paralegal, can also be reached at (216) 574-2016. We don't route calls through an intake center. When you call, you reach someone who knows your case.
Is there a fee for an initial consultation?
No. The consultation is free and comes with no obligation. You tell me what happened, I tell you what your options are. If I think you have a viable claim, I'll explain exactly what pursuing it looks like. If I don't, I'll tell you that too.
What if I was injured outside Ohio — can an Ohio attorney help me?
In many cases, yes. Ohio residents injured in another state have options, and whether Ohio or out-of-state law applies depends on the specific facts of your case. I handle these situations directly and can evaluate your circumstances in a free consultation.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Ohio?
Ohio's statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the date of the injury. Wrongful death claims follow a similar two-year timeline. Missing that window typically means losing your right to recover. If you're unsure where you stand, call now — the consultation is free.
Ready to Talk? I Am.
You don't need to have all the answers before you call. That's what the consultation is for. Reach me directly at (216) 574-2012 — I'm available 24/7. Or use the form below and I'll follow up promptly.
