frequently asked questions

What should I do immediately after an injury?

First things first—take care of yourself! Get medical help right away, even if you think it’s just a scratch. Document everything you can—snap photos of the scene, jot down what happened, and get contact info from witnesses. Then give us a call at Youd Law. The sooner we can chat about your situation, the better we can protect your rights.

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Salem, OR?

Oregon gives you two years from the date you got hurt to file a claim. But honestly, waiting that long isn’t a great idea. Evidence disappears, memories fade, and details get fuzzy.  Also, claims against governmental defendants require the service of a Notice of Tort Claim within 180 days from the date you got hurt.  Reach out to us as soon as you can—it makes a world of difference in building a strong case.

How does the contingency fee system work?

We don’t get paid unless you do—it’s that straightforward. No upfront costs, no hourly rates, and no surprise bills. We only collect a fee if we win your case or settle it successfully. This way, you can focus on healing while we focus on getting you compensation.

How much is my personal injury claim worth?

The seriousness of your injuries, your medical bills, the time missed from work, and how the accident impacts your day-to-day life all play a role. When we sit down for your free consultation, we’ll look at your specific situation and give you a realistic picture of what to expect. No empty promises—just honest guidance based on our decades of experience.
