Car Accidents in Oregon

Every day, motor vehicle accidents in the city of Portland inflict endless mental, physical, and emotional pain and suffering on victims. These accidents are often unpredictable. However, we continue to see a significant number of people harmed in accidents due to the negligence of other motorists.

We want to believe that we will always make it to our destinations without any problems, but this is far from reality. There are many instances where people are hurt in crashes due to drivers who are drunk or under the influence of drugs, distracted, or engaging in other reckless actions while operating their vehicles.

In many cases, victims are hospitalized with internal organ damages, spinal cord injuries, and other life-altering injuries that require emergency surgery and endless treatment. Although many of us are aware that motor vehicle accidents often end in injuries, we are often unprepared to deal with the consequences that they have on victims and their families.
