Ohio questions and answers

• Do I Need A Lawyer After A Car Accident in Ohio?

• Is it my right to get provider-to-provider communications and records upon lack of informed consent?

  Asked in Cleveland, OH | January 19, 2026

  My issue concerns violations of informed consent, documentation fraud by a psychiatrist and referral doctor, and potential destruction of evidence by a hospital. I was not informed of the purpose of the psychiatry appointment by either the referring doctor or the psychiatrist, nor was I given consent for the tests he did for his hypothesis of autism. All of which was accessing old records from a different program that caused me harm. I did not know such documents existed, and I cannot obtain the entirety of these files from the old hospital.

  I discovered documentation fraud: The psychiatrist had removed important disclosures that obviously went against his ambushed autism screening and lack of care that caused me re-traumatization. Now, I lack the specific care that I don't have access to. During an active investigation, medical records denied me access to provider communications despite a HIPAA request. I want to obtain all communications and old hospital files. I believe the current hospital will permanently destroy audit trails and I am involved in a "circle referral" regarding this issue, which I suspect they will spoil evidence. What can I do?

• How can someone get charged with an F3 charge for fleeing the police when they never caught the suspect actually driving

  Asked in Georgetown, OH | March 2, 2026

  My friend was charged for the F3 fleeing and eluding police, only from his association to the car that was running from the police. They never stopped the car or got a visual of the driver, but since he is associated to that car by his girlfriend and his past record of that same charge, which he was guilty of, they are trying to send him to prison.

• The police made me sign a forfeiture of my friend's car and I'm not the owner. Can they do that?

  Asked in Jeffersonville, OH | January 18, 2026

  They had no RAS, no probable cause, they pulled me over for a hunch and kept my friend's vehicle. Had me sign the forfeiture on the forfeiture paper. I have it says that I am the owner but I obviously am not.
