Common Injuries In Auto Accidents
Understanding the types of injuries that result from motor vehicle crashes helps explain why full and fair compensation matters. Even a seemingly minor accident can lead to lasting physical and emotional harm.
Some common injuries we see in auto accident claims include:
- Traumatic brain injuries and concussions
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Broken bones and orthopedic damage
- Internal injuries and organ damage
- Whiplash and soft tissue injuries
- Psychological trauma such as PTSD
Our attorneys work closely with medical experts to document these injuries and connect them directly to the accident, which is key to building a strong case for recovery.
Timeline Of A Car Accident Claim
Knowing what to expect after filing a car accident claim can reduce stress and help you make informed decisions. While every case is different, most follow a general process:
- Initial consultation to review your accident and determine next steps
- Investigation and evidence gathering, including photos, medical records and witness statements
- Filing a claim with the insurance company or at-fault party
- Settlement negotiations to seek a fair resolution
- Filing a lawsuit if negotiations fail to produce a reasonable offer
- Trial preparation and court proceedings, if needed
Our attorneys will keep you informed at every step and make sure your rights are protected from start to finish.
Why Legal Representation Matters In Car Accident Cases
Even with clear evidence of fault, insurance companies may still undervalue your claim. Having an experienced car accident lawyer can make a major difference in the outcome.
Legal representation can help:
- Accurately calculate all damages, including long-term costs
- Avoid common pitfalls that could harm your claim
- Access expert testimony to support your case
- Navigate Oregon’s no-fault and comparative negligence laws
- Increase your chances of receiving maximum compensation
ou don’t have to handle your case alone. Our attorneys at the Law Office of Robert A. Miller are here to advocate for your recovery and peace of mind.
What Do ‘No-Fault’ And Comparative Negligence Mean?
Oregon is a no-fault state. This means that no matter who was at fault for an accident, your insurance provider will provide limited coverage known as personal injury protection (PIP). PIP includes your medical expenses and wage losses for up to $15,000 or one year, whichever comes first. While a no-fault state does allow you to get some coverage, this does not mean you are unable to take legal action against a negligent driver.
Oregon is also a comparative negligence state. Comparative negligence means that you can sue the other driver as long as their negligence outweighs your own. Because of the serious injuries that can result from a car accident, it is important to speak with our law firm as soon as possible to review your options.
