Salem Auto Accident Injury Attorneys

If you are in an auto accident caused by someone else’s irresponsible actions, you are probably dealing with overwhelming medical bills, lost income, physical therapy, and chronic pain. You may even be enduring permanent disability, and the stress of long-term treatment and/or life-long care.

As reported in ODOT’s most current data, in 2023 there were nearly 47,000 vehicle crashes statewide just last year; this means that almost 4,000 automobile accidents occur in Oregon on a monthly basis! Significantly, 39,000 of those accidents resulted in injury, almost half of which were major or serious injuries, and sadly 529 traffic related deaths occurred. No one plans to get into an auto accident, but each year drivers make poor decisions while driving.

In fact, according to ODOT “driver error” can be attributed as the cause of most auto accidents. Some examples include:

• Driving too fast
• Failure to avoid stopped or parked vehicle ahead (rear-ending)
• Improper lane changes
• Driving too fast for road conditions
• DUII – driving under the influence of intoxicants
• Distracted driving; eating, talking on your cell phone, or texting
• Failure to yield right-of-way to other vehicles, bicycles, motorcycles, or pedestrians
• Driver fatigue

If you have been involved in an automobile accident – it is important to act quickly. You need to get in touch with an experienced personal injury attorney immediately; even if your injuries don’t seem very serious at first. You are eligible to receive compensation for all bills and expenses you incur as a result of that accident. This includes the pain and stress you and your family have experienced.
