How They Can Help

Fishman's practice addresses the needs of people who have suffered injuries either at work or as the result of another party's actions. For workers compensation clients, this means guiding them through Ohio's BWC claims process, handling disputes over benefits, and appealing denied claims. For personal injury clients, the firm works to establish liability and pursue fair compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages resulting from accidents.

What to Expect

Clients who reach out to the Fishman law office can expect an initial consultation to discuss the facts of their injury or accident. From there, the attorney will review the circumstances, explain the relevant legal options under Ohio workers compensation or personal injury law, and outline a strategy for moving forward. Throughout the case, clients are kept informed of developments and what steps are being taken on their behalf.

Service Area

The firm serves injured clients primarily throughout Cleveland and the surrounding Cuyahoga County communities in northeastern Ohio.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of personal injury cases does Mark Fishman handle?
The firm handles a range of personal injury matters including vehicle accidents, slip and fall incidents, and other situations where someone else's negligence caused harm to a client in the Cleveland area.
Can I file both a workers compensation claim and a personal injury lawsuit?
In some Ohio cases, yes. If a third party other than your employer contributed to your workplace injury, you may have grounds for a separate personal injury claim alongside your BWC workers comp claim. An attorney can help evaluate whether that applies to your situation.
What should I do immediately after a workplace injury in Ohio?
You should report the injury to your employer as soon as possible, seek medical treatment, and document everything related to the incident. Contacting a workers compensation attorney early can help protect your rights before important deadlines pass.
Does the firm handle denied workers compensation claims?
Yes. If your Ohio BWC claim has been denied or your benefits have been disputed, the firm can review your case and help you understand your options for challenging that decision through the appropriate appeals process.
Where is the Fishman law office located?
The office is located at 526 Superior Ave, Suite 210 in downtown Cleveland, Ohio, and can be reached by phone at (216) 781-4800.
How are fees typically handled in personal injury and workers comp cases?
Many personal injury and workers compensation attorneys in Ohio work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you do not pay attorney fees unless there is a recovery in your case. You should discuss the specific fee arrangement during your initial consultation.
