Each Car Accident is Different

Attorneys Scanlon and Galla have handled many accidents and walked clients through the process.

Attorneys Scanlon and Galla have access to experienced traffic crash reconstructionists necessary to preserve critical electronic data or recreate the scene.

Attorneys Scanlon and Galla can evaluate your claims.

How Do I Know I Need a Lawyer?

  • Serious Injuries - if your injuries require medical treatment, result in impairment, or cause pain and suffering, Attorneys Scanlon and Galla can help ensure your claim is processed.

  • Delayed Injuries - Headaches, numbness, abdominal pain, aching, soreness, and/or cognitive changes may appear later after the car accident. These symptoms can occur even if you felt fine after the accident. Attorneys Scanlon and Galla can help make sure these claims are properly evaluated by the at-fault party.

  • Dealing with Insurance - Insurance companies do not have your best interest in mind. They may deny your claims outright, minimize your pain and suffering, or give you a “lowball” settlement offer that does not cover your expenses. Attorneys Scanlon and Galla can help negotiate these claims on your behalf.

What To Do After A Car Accident?

  1. Call the police - dial 911 so that police and emergency medical services can respond to the scene, treat injuries, and document the accident.

  2. Get medical help - even if you feel okay, it is important to get medical help so medical professionals can evaluate you for injuries.

  3. Get information - take photos of the scene, the cars, and collect available witness information.

  4. Insurance - do not speak to the other driver’s insurance company. Do not give a recorded statement without a lawyer.

  5. Call Attorneys Scanlon and Galla as soon as possible - 330-376-1440.

What Kinds of Accidents We Have Handled

Rear-end crashes are one of the most common causes of whiplash, neck strain, and back injuries in Stow, Akron, Cuyahoga Falls, Tallmadge, Barberton, and the surrounding Summit County communities. Even low-speed impacts can require extensive medical treatment or lead to long-term impairment. Attorneys James Galla and Lawrence Scanlon help local accident victims document injuries, manage insurance adjusters, and pursue resolution.

Head-on collisions can cause severe or delayed-onset symptoms — including headaches, numbness, abdominal pain, and cognitive changes — even if you initially felt fine. These injuries require careful evaluation and strong claim preparation to avoid disputes with the at-fault driver’s insurer. Attorneys Scanlon and Galla represent clients throughout Stow, Akron, Cuyahoga Falls, and Summit County to ensure all injuries and damages are fully accounted for before settlement.

T-bone crashes often occur at intersections in Stow, Akron, Fairlawn, and surrounding communities, leading to chest, hip, and side-impact injuries that insurers frequently challenge. Adjusters may question liability or reduce the value of your pain and suffering. Attorneys Galla and Scanlon help Northeast Ohio victims gather evidence, prove fault, and negotiate resolution for side-impact collisions.

Failure-to-yield accidents commonly arise when drivers ignore traffic signals, stop signs, or right-of-way rules in busy Stow corridors and nearby cities like Tallmadge and Barberton. These cases often involve disputed liability and conflicting witness statements. Attorneys Scanlon and Galla represent Summit County clients in proving fault and securing proper compensation for injuries caused by negligent drivers.

Drunk-driving crashes in Stow, Akron, Fairlawn, and Cuyahoga Falls often result in serious, life-changing injuries. Even with clear impairment, insurance companies may attempt to minimize damages. Attorneys Galla and Scanlon aggressively pursue these claims on behalf of Northeast Ohio residents, obtaining police reports, toxicity evidence, and witness statements to hold intoxicated drivers fully accountable.

Distracted Driving Accidents - texting, phone use, and other distractions remain a leading cause of car accidents in Stow, Akron, and surrounding areas. These crashes frequently involve rear-end, side-impact, or lane-departure injuries that insurers try to downplay. Attorneys Scanlon and Galla help local victims obtain phone records, crash data, and witness statements to prove distracted driving and maximize recovery.

Uninsured and Underinsured Motorist Accidents - when an at-fault driver in Stow, Akron, Hudson, Wadsworth, or other Northeast Ohio communities carries no insurance or too little coverage, your own UM/UIM policy may be responsible for your losses. These claims are often disputed just as aggressively as standard liability cases. Attorneys Galla and Scanlon help clients navigate UM/UIM claims, challenge unfair denials, and pursue resolution.
