One moment, you’re going about your day. Next, everything changes. A car accident, a fall, a preventable mistake by someone else, and suddenly you’re facing medical bills, missed work, and pain that won’t let up. If that sounds familiar, you don’t have to figure this out on your own.
At Youd Law, our personal injury law firm in Salem is built around one idea: people come first. Attorney Lance D. Youd has spent over 30 years standing up for injured Oregonians. Not because it’s just a job, but because everyone deserves someone in their corner when life gets hard. When you work with Lance, you get honest answers, personal attention, and a legal advocate who knows how to get results.
A personal injury claim is a legal action you file when someone else’s negligence or carelessness causes you harm, whether that’s physical, emotional, or financial. According to the Oregon State Bar, injured individuals have the right to seek fair compensation for damages caused by another party’s actions or inattention (osbar.org). In most cases, that means working with insurance companies, and insurance companies rarely make things easy. That’s where having a skilled personal injury attorney makes all the difference.
No two accidents are the same, and neither are the injuries that follow. As your injury attorney, Lance and the Youd Law team are prepared to take on a wide range of cases, including:
Whatever the circumstances, we’ll listen to your story, review the facts, and give you an honest assessment of your options, at no cost to you.
