Personal Injury
Personal injury is the area of law that offers protection to accident victims who have become injured, ill, or killed as the result of another person or company’s negligent actions. Victims of personal injury accidents typically suffer from extensive physical and psychological injuries, and often require expensive medical care and treatment. Because an unexpected accident or injury can take a physical, psychological, and economic toll on a person’s life, Oregon personal injury law entitles accident victims to sue the person responsible for their accident or injuries for monetary compensation. When a person becomes injured or ill due to the negligence of another, they are entitled to be compensated for their pain and suffering, lost earning, and all past and future medical and rehabilitative expenses.
