  Is there bias that a motorcyclist must be at fault or "deserve" inuries in a motorcycle accident?

Juries, insurance adjusters, judges, and even lawyers representing motorcycle accident victims sometimes maintain the subtle bias that motorcyclists "deserve" injuries because they forego the safety of a four-wheeled, enclosed vehicle. At Pacific Injury Law Firm, we recognize such biases and refuse to minimize the claims of the motorcycle accident victim. If a motorcycle accident victim is not able to obtain complete and fair compensation, we will take the case to trial.

  Oregon Pedestrian Injury and Fatality On the Rise

Oregon pedestrian fatalities from drivers are a serious public health issue. According to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), in 2020, there were 6,378 pedestrian fatalities in the United States, a 5% increase from 2019. These statistics represent the highest pedestrian fatalities in the last 30 years.

  What is an Oregon Wrongful Death Lawsuit?

A "wrongful death” lawsuit primarily occurs when an accident causes the death of another person because of negligence. Under Oregon law, ORS 30.020 defines "wrongful death" as a ”death caused by the wrongful act or omission of another." This usually is because of the reckless, negligent, or intentional act of someone else. Mainly, if it weren’t for the actions of another person, the deceased would still be alive.
