Damages in Oregon Personal Injury Lawsuits

Accidents in personal injury claims often result in painful injuries. In many cases, these injuries require extensive medical care and result in permanent, life-altering complications—leading to physical, emotional, and financial consequences.

Through a personal injury claim, you can recover compensation for the economic and non-economic losses you experienced due to the at-fault party’s actions.

Economic damages involve tangible, financial losses, while non-economic damages refer to your physical and psychological pain and suffering.

Common types of damages available in Oregon personal injury lawsuits include the following.

Past and future medical expenses
Property damage
Chronic pain
Lost wages
Loss of future earnings
Disability accommodations
Rehabilitation and physical therapy
Depression and anxiety
Loss of quality of life
Post-traumatic stress disorder
Permanent disability and disfigurement

How to Prove a Personal Injury Lawsuit

To secure compensation in a personal injury claim, you will need to supply enough evidence proving that the at-fault party’s actions caused your accident and resulting injuries. Specifically, you will need to supply enough evidence to support the four elements of negligence.

Duty: The at-fault party owed you a duty of care at the time of the accident. This element will depend on the circumstances surrounding your case. For example, drivers owe a duty to follow Oregon traffic laws and drive safely. Property owners have a duty to maintain safe premises and warn visitors of potential hazards.
Breach of duty: The at-fault party’s actions breached his or her duty of care. For example, a driver who runs a red light or drives under the influences breaks Oregon law and his or her duty of care. A property owner who ignores repair requests from his or her tenants also breaches his or her duty.
Causation: The breach of duty caused your accident and resulting injuries. This element can be difficult to prove, but you can use multiple pieces of evidence to establish causation, such as surveillance footage, police reports, witness testimony, and photographic evidence.
Damages: You sustained damages due to the at-fault party’s actions that you can collect in your lawsuit. You can use multiple pieces of evidence to prove these damages, including medical bills, invoices, receipts, and expert witness testimony.

Your attorney from Tillmann Law Personal Injury Lawyers can help you gather the evidence that you need to support each of these elements and establish the at-fault party’s liability. We will work tirelessly to craft a compelling case in your favor and hold the defendant accountable.

The Statute of Limitations for Oregon Personal Injury Claims

If you believe that you qualify for a personal injury lawsuit, it is important to speak to an attorney at Tillmann Law Personal Injury Lawyers as soon as possible. Under Oregon’s statute of limitations for personal injury claims, you have two years from the date of your accident to file. If you file your claim after this deadline, the court will likely dismiss your case.

While there are exceptions to the statute of limitations, they are not always common in personal injury cases. To identify your appropriate filing deadline and protect your right to compensation, contact a Lake Oswego personal injury lawyer.

I was involved in a serious auto accident. Not that there is a good time to be in any accident, it just happened to be 2020. Tillman Law and support staff kept me in the loop as the court system was disarray with all the Covid issues. The staff was very professional and courteous. In a nutshell, they took care of me.

My husband was in a bad car accident a few years back, and he was stopped due to traffic. He was behind a fuel truck, and someone rear-ended him, going 60mph. The worst part was our 6 mo old was in our and the truck was totaled beyond repair and my husbands back injured severly he ended up with 2 broken vertebrae. Our child had ptsd any time getting into a vehicle after that. Tillman made this right even though we couldn't do much for our son other comfort him and make car rides more comfortable from there on out Tillman was able to get my husband the money he deserved after the other driver was extremely negligent and either not paying attention or on his phone or something unfortunately this was during covid and when the police came they didnt do a single thing to check for any of that. We can't say enough good things about Aaron Tillman he gave us our hope back and the ability to have back surgery to repair a lot of his back issues due to the car wreck. So if you have been in an accident definitely call Tillman Law they're amazing super professional, kind and empathetic beings who will work for the best possible outcome for your case and fight they won't just roll over and play dead they spent about 2.5 years on my husbands case never giving up. He was always super honest with my husband and always communicated everything. So again, thank you, Aaron Tillman, and thank you to your law firm for working so tirelessly. We appreciate it more than you know.

I can’t recommend Tillman Law enough. We were in a sticky situation from a car accident in December and my partner was out of work for over a month. Aaron told us we may not be able to get those lost wages, but he would definitely try to fight the insurance for them and even then we might not see the money for a long time. It’s only been 3 1/2 months since the accident and we just got our lost funds today. Tillman Law was quick, efficient, and made this entire situation much less painful. I appreciate everything they’ve done for us.
