Columbus, Ohio PFAS “Forever Chemicals” in Drinking Water: Health Risks, EPA Rules, and Your Legal Rights The city of Columbus is ahead of the curve. While municipal water systems across the country still have a few years before federal rules require them to begin removing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances — the “forever chemicals” known as PFAS — from drinking water, Columbus’s water plants are reportedly already doing it. A Columbus-based company has expanded its operations to help municipal water systems meet the upcoming compliance deadlines, and the city’s own utilities are not treating the deadline as a crisis. They are treating it as a checkpoint they already passed. That is good news for your tap water today. But it does not close the book on what these chemicals may have already done to the people who drank them, worked with them, or lived near the places that released them — before anyone was testing, before anyone was treating, before anyone was required to tell you what was in the glass. If you are reading this page, you may be someone who was diagnosed with kidney cancer, thyroid disease, or ulcerative colitis and only recently learned that PFAS exposure has been…

When a Suspended Fraternity Keeps Throwing Parties and a Student Dies Outside Its Door If you are reading this near the anniversary of someone you lost to campus-area violence — a son, a daughter, a friend who should still be here — you already know the worst part is not the death. The worst part is discovering that the people who could have prevented it knew the danger was there and did nothing. A fraternity was suspended. It kept operating anyway, serving alcohol, drawing crowds, opening its doors to strangers in a neighborhood everyone knew was dangerous. A university knew this was happening. Nobody stopped it. And now your family is left with a grave and a question: does the law let anyone answer for this? We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm.

The Intersection of Winchester Pike and Refugee Road: A Fatal Kinetic Event The silence that follows a 100-mph impact is heavy, especially at a busy arterial junction like Winchester Pike and Refugee Road. If you are reading this from a hospital room or a home that now feels too quiet, you are in the middle of a legal and medical emergency. At 2:42 p.m. on June 22, a GMC Yukon and a commercial dump truck collided head-on in Southeast Columbus, leaving a trail of wreckage and at least one life lost. Witnesses report that the SUV was traveling at triple-digit speeds before crossing a concrete median—a move that suggests a massive transfer of kinetic energy. When a passenger vehicle hits a commercial truck at those speeds, the physics are not just violent; they are often unsurvivable. We are Attorney911, the Legal Emergency Lawyers™, and our role is to act as your shield. While the police department investigates the mechanics of this crash, we begin the work of protecting your family’s future and freezing the evidence that the insurance companies would rather see disappear.

Fatal Collision at Winchester Pike and Refugee Road in Columbus A high-energy collision in southeast Columbus has claimed a life, leaving a family to face the aftermath of a preventable failure to yield. At approximately 2:40 p.m., a Kenworth dump truck traveling northbound on Winchester Pike attempted to turn westbound onto Refugee Road. In doing so, the commercial vehicle crossed directly into the path of a southbound GMC Yukon. The physics of this crash were catastrophic. A fully loaded Kenworth dump truck can weigh up to 80,000 pounds, while a GMC Yukon weighs roughly 5,500 pounds. In a collision where the masses are mismatched by nearly 15-to-1, the passenger vehicle absorbs almost all the violent change in velocity. The driver of the GMC was pronounced deceased at the scene. Our firm handles these cases by looking past the initial police report to find the corporate choices that led to this moment. When a professional driver behind the wheel of a 40-ton machine fails to clear an intersection safely, the law in Ohio is clear about where the responsibility lies. We represent families in these moments to ensure the trucking company—not the grieving survivors—carries the weight of this loss. Ohio Wrongful…
