Why Hiring an Attorney for Small-Claim Damages in Oregon is Crucial | Top Oregon injury Attorneys

  Why Hiring an Attorney for Small-Claim Damages in Oregon is Crucial

Oregon has created a law (ORS 20.080) which is intended to level the playing field for injured parties with smaller claims and to promote these injured parties’ ability to get legal counsel. Generally, the law accomplishes this by awarding xxattylawyerxx fees to a party who successfully uses a xxattylawyerxx to represent them in recovering their damages (medical costs, property losses, and other expenses including as lost wages). These fees for your xxATTYLAWYERxx are awarded if you make a demand for payment under $10,000.00, and the defendant (or their insurance company) declines the offer or offers less than you demand. If you subsequently are awarded more, you are also entitled to attorney fees under the law.
