Frequently Asked Questions

What types of employment law cases does Stocker Pitts handle?
The firm's employment law practice can cover issues like workplace discrimination, wrongful termination, retaliation, and wage disputes. If you believe your employer has violated your rights under Ohio or federal employment law, contacting the firm at (440) 822-3708 is a good starting point.
Can an employer fire me for filing a workers compensation claim in Ohio?
Ohio law prohibits employers from retaliating against employees for filing a workers compensation claim. If you have been terminated or otherwise penalized after reporting a work injury or filing with the BWC, an employment and workers comp attorney can evaluate whether you have a retaliation claim.
Does Stocker Pitts handle Social Security disability cases?
Social Security law is not listed among the firm's practice areas. Their focus is on employment law, personal injury, and workers compensation. It is worth calling them directly to ask whether they handle disability claims or can recommend someone who does.
How far does Stocker Pitts serve clients geographically?
The firm is located in Brecksville, which sits conveniently between Cleveland and Akron. They are well positioned to serve clients throughout Cuyahoga County and surrounding northeastern Ohio communities.
What is the difference between a workers comp claim and a personal injury lawsuit?
Workers comp is a no-fault system that provides wage replacement and medical benefits regardless of who caused the accident. A personal injury lawsuit requires proving another party's negligence but can allow for a broader range of damages. In some Ohio workplace accidents, both options may be available.
How much does it cost to hire Stocker Pitts for a workers comp or personal injury case?
Many workers compensation and personal injury attorneys in Ohio work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only collect a fee if you recover compensation. You should confirm the firm's specific fee arrangement when you call (440) 822-3708 for your initial consultation.
