Most people need an Albany personal injury attorney to put them in the best position to receive justice.

We Seek Fair Compensation

One question many people ask is how much compensation they can receive. This is a difficult question to answer. In many ways, each personal injury case we take is unique. There are specific facts which determine the amount of compensation any victim might receive, and we need to know them before we begin to talk numbers.

We look at everything, including the severity of your injuries, your medical expenses, and whether you missed work. We can also seek money for any damaged property, like a car damaged in a crash.

Under Oregon law, we can also seek money for things like pain, suffering, emotional distress, mental anguish, depression, and loss of enjoyment of life. These harder-to-define losses are real—and you deserve compensation to try and make up for them.

Comparative Fault & Albany Personal Injury

Accidents are rarely black-and-white. Sometimes, your own negligence contributed to an accident. Fortunately, you can still seek compensation provided you are not more than 50% at fault. If you are, then Oregon law bars you from receiving anything.

When victims are 50% or less at fault, their compensation is diminished proportionally. So you might be 30% to blame, in which case you receive 30% less.

Comparative fault arises in many cases, with each side blaming the other for the accident. Our firm is prepared to forcefully argue on your behalf when we determine that you are not more than 50% at fault.
