What Is Oregon Personal Injury Protection (PIP)? | Best-Rated Oregon injury Attorneys

  What Is Oregon Personal Injury Protection (PIP)?

Your liability coverage may include Personal Injury Protection ("PIP") or Medical Payments ("Med Pay") benefits. PIP provides a source of payment for YOUR medical bills and some of YOUR wage loss following an auto accident. Further, PIP is no-fault, meaning that it will begin paying on your injuries immediately, rather than waiting for liability to be determined. Similarly, Med Pay provides some coverage for YOUR medical bills. These are called "no-fault" coverages because they pay even if the accident is your fault.

Alternative Dispute Resolution ("ADR") is becoming an increasingly important option in many jurisdictions. ADR refers to efforts to find methods that are outside the court system to resolve civil disputes. These methods may be advantageous to the courts and to the parties involved since they may resolve a dispute in a faster, more cost-effective manner and reduce or eliminate the need for participation by the court system.

Will my insurance pay my bills if I am hit by a car and injured while riding my bicycle or walking? | Best Oregon injury Attorneys

  Will my insurance pay my bills if I am hit by a car and injured while riding my bicycle or walking?

Q: Will my insurance pay my bills if I am hit by a car and injured while riding my bicycle or walking?
