As a personal injury law firm, we are extremely interested in promoting safety for everyone using the roads and throughways in Ohio. In 2015, almost 7,000 drivers were injured or killed as a result of distracted driving. This is simply unacceptable.

With your help, we want to bring attention to this serious issue.

The Contest

College and high-school students are a high-risk group for distracted driving. Whether it’s music, friends, or smartphones, there are many things that can divert attention from the road.

Tittle & Perlmuter is offering a scholarship that brings attention to distracted driving in Ohio and at the same time, helps students achieve their education goals.

How Does it Work?

It’s easy! Students will submit a 750-1500 word essay that addresses three points:

  • How Big is the Problem of Distracted Driving in Your Peer Group?
  • What is a Specific Example of Distracted Driving You’ve Seen?
  • How Can the Issue of Distracted Driving Be Addressed?

We are looking for essays that best address each of the three points listed above.

To enter, here’s what you need to do:

    – Write your 750-1500 Word Essay on Distracted Driving

  • I was in a car accident. The insurance company only offered $2,500 to settle my car case. Attorney Allen Tittle took the matter to trial, and after four days, obtained a jury verdict of $75,000 which is 30 times more than what I was offered. He fights for his clients and obtains justice. I would highly recommend him.
  • Allen was professional, conscientious and well organized. Allen's research of my case produced results in which he was able to obtain a copy of a video from the grocery store and subpoenaed a witness that substantiated my claim and proved that I was in fact struck by the vehicle and injured, which he presented in the deposition. This resulted in a successful settlement in my favor
  • What I liked best about Tittle & Perlmuter was the prompt return of phone calls, always knowing when paperwork had been sent, and knowing I could call anytime and get my questions answered.
