Liability Overview

Liability Considerations in Cleveland

Ohio Revised Code § 2305.113 provides a 1-year statute of limitations for medical malpractice — the shortest in the nation. The parent's own claim expires in exactly 1 year from the date of the birth injury. The child's claim is tolled until age 19 (age 18 plus 1 year). Cleveland families who suspect a birth injury must consult a birth injury attorney within weeks of the injury. Do not wait. Ohio does not cap medical malpractice damages.
