Frequently Asked Questions
It’s normal to have questions when you’re considering hiring a lawyer. Here are answers to some of the questions we hear most often.
How long has Elk + Elk been around?
Elk + Elk has represented injured people and families for more than 50 years. Brothers Arthur and David Elk founded the firm in Ohio, and we’ve grown to serve clients across the state.
Are free consultations available?
Yes. If you or a loved one has been injured, you can contact Elk + Elk for a free case review. There’s no pressure and no obligation to hire us.
We’ll listen to what happened, ask questions about your situation, and help you understand your legal options.
How much does it cost to hire an attorney?
Our personal injury attorneys work on a contingency fee basis. You won’t pay an attorney fee unless we recover compensation for you.
Before you hire us, we’ll explain our fee agreement and answer your questions about attorney fees and case expenses so you know what to expect.
What can I expect when working with Elk + Elk?
If you hire Elk + Elk, you won’t have to navigate the legal process by yourself. Our team can investigate your claim, gather records and evidence, communicate with insurance companies, and handle the legal work involved in pursuing your case.
We’ll also keep you informed about your case and be available to answer questions along the way.
Where are your offices?
We have offices serving communities throughout Ohio, including Mayfield Heights, Cleveland, Akron, Canton, Columbus, Cincinnati, Dayton, Toledo and Youngstown. We also serve clients through offices in Louisville, Kentucky, and Seattle, Washington.
What if I can’t travel to your offices?
You don’t necessarily need to come to one of our offices. We offer remote consultations and can make other arrangements if your injuries make it difficult to travel.
What if I have questions after office hours?
We’re available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You can call 1-800-ELK-OHIO, chat, or contact us through our website whenever you need to reach us.
A Team Built for Serious Injury Cases
Serious injury cases can involve complicated legal, medical, and financial questions. That’s why we’ve built a team with resources that go beyond our attorneys.
Medical Experience
Our in-house medical team includes nurses and a physician who can help our attorneys understand the medical issues involved in a case.
They can assist with reviewing medical records and understanding diagnoses, treatment, and other clinical issues. When a case requires additional medical expertise, our attorneys can also consult appropriate outside experts.
These resources can be particularly valuable in medical malpractice, birth injury and catastrophic injury cases involving extensive medical records and long-term care.
Investigation and Accident Reconstruction
Sometimes understanding what happened requires more than a police report or an insurance company’s version of events.
Depending on the case, our attorneys can work with investigators and accident reconstruction specialists to examine evidence and better understand how an accident happened. That may include photographs, video, vehicle evidence, reports, witness accounts, and other available information.
Financial and Vocational Expertise
A serious injury can affect much more than your immediate medical bills. It can keep you from working or change what you’re able to do in the future.
When those issues are part of a case, economists, accountants, and vocational experts can help evaluate lost income, diminished earning capacity, and other long-term financial effects.
