Car Accidents in Oregon
Each year, tens of thousands of people are negatively affected by motor vehicle accidents across the state of Oregon. In some cases, victims suffer severe injuries that demand emergency medical care. When people sustain severe spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, and even severe back injuries, they can expect to go through months of therapy and rehabilitation. Unfortunately, no medical treatment comes with a guarantee of a full recovery. We see countless people who are left permanently disabled as a result of auto accidents in our state each year.
Not only are victims forced to endure painful mental and physical injuries, but they often face significant financial consequences as well.
