Cincinnati Motorcycle Accident and Injury Attorney Adds new content

There are many "venues" that I use to try to reach potential consumers of the legal services I provide. One of the areas I focus on is motorcycle accident injury cases. I have ridden in the past, know a lot of motorcyclists, and represented many bikers that were injured as a result of a car driver.

It's no secret that some people are prejudiced against motorcyclists. But as usual this prejudice is based on lack of knowledge and stereotyping. The vast majority of motorcycle riders are a caring group that love the freedom their bike gives them .

My goal is to seek to eliminate prejudice and educate bikers about their rights and how they can protect themselves before and after an injury.

Here is a new site I found that allows me to create a biker rights channel
.http://cincinnatimotorcycleinjuryattorneyonbikersrights.magnify.net/
It is not sophisticated and the few videos were made before I went to work in the wee hours of the morning. Soon I will have an actual videoblog on my web site that will cover motorcycle law.

Another resource I found to reach Cincinnati , Ohio personal injury accident victims is mefeedia.com and here I have created an rss feed. If you subscribe this will allow you to be notified of any new videos I put up on youtube.

What is Wrongful Death in Ohio

Wrongful Death in Ohio Settlement Averages

A wrongful death occurs anytime someone is killed as a result of the fault of another. Fault in the law is called negligence . This is a failure to exercise care that a careful person or corporation would exercise. There can also be an intentional act that causes death . This also is a wrongful death if it is not legally sanctioned.

Examples of wrongful deaths are when a driver runs a red light, stop sign , speeds , follows too closely and as a result a car collision occurs and they kill someone. There are many other situations that can be a wrongful death.

Who Can Bring A wrongful death Action in Ohio

In Ohio the personal represntative of the deceased person's estate appointed by the probate court is the person who brings the wrongful death on behalf of all the beneficiaries to the action. The beneficiaries are not necessarily those people named in a will. They are the people named in the Wrongful death statute. They can be anyone related by blood or adoption to the deceased. These can be the spouse, children, parents, brothers and sisters, nephews nieces and others.

What are the Settlement or Trial Damages

The damages recoverable include the economic loss. What would the deceased contribute to any relative had they lived. Also the non economic damages are extensive. They include loss of care , guidance , counsel, training , companionship and many other items of personal loss. Also the mental anguish caused to the beneficiaries as a result of the death is recoverable.

In many cases the damage award exceeds 1-2 million dollars as well they should. Even though the taking of a life may have been unintended, if it occured as a result of carelessness, a life is ended, it should not have, and those left behind suffer the loss forever.

I have personally been involved in trial of wrongful death and in one the jury verdict was $1,750,000 and the other was $2,750,000.00. However I know of cases where the award was much less as well as much more.

Of course money can never make up for the loss. But our society does not sanction an eye for an eye and revenge does not make up for a loss. In fact ,We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
Money can keep a widow in her home, it can help her provide for her children. Parents can establish memorials in the name of the deceased.Children can go to college.

After all, if it was a piece of property that was destroyed no one would have a problem awarding damages for the value of the property. In addition this serves as a deterrant from people and corporations acting irresponsively.

Judge Lets Juror Sleep During Murder Trial Guity verdict Reversed

Usually I use this bolg to write about personal injury cases, workers compensation or social security disability. But this story bears repeating.

This is a true story from an actual case out of a courtroom in Cuyahoga county , Ohio. The eighth district court of appeals rendered a written opinion.

The Facts

Defendant fired a gun into a bar injuring and killing one person. He was convicted. He appealed.

In five separate instances during trial it was brought to the court's attention that a juror had been sleeping. The court did not admonish the juror, did not remove the juror, and near the end of the trial said,

"I saw it. So what. Let him sleep. you guys picked the jury. I didn't."

Before that the judge said, "Let the recod reflect mr brown is asleep again with his mouth agape, snoring as well."

The Court of Appeals


The appeals court stated that extensive evidence of sleeping, including sleeping during eyewitness testimony constitutes pervasive juror misconduct and plain error.
This level of misconduct can never be direagarded. The trial judge did not monitor the situation or admonish the juror clearly abused its discretion.
Commentary

This might be funny if it was not so serious. Thankfully the Court of appeals was there to corrrect this. The defendant does not get off but faces a new trial. One at which everyone will stay awake.

Yes late in the afternoon , in a hot stuffy courtroom in a boring trial a juror may nod off. But it needs to be recognized right away and the juror told to shape up
or be taken off the jury.

Jury service is one of the cornerstones of our democracy in both civil and criminal cases. It must be taken seriously and most jurors do a great job. But here not only the juror , but the judge was asleep at the switch.
