Understanding Oregon's Underinsured Motorist (UIM) Coverage | Top-Rated Oregon injury Attorneys

  Understanding Oregon's Underinsured Motorist (UIM) Coverage

In short, UIM insurance is a means of utilizing your own (UM uninsured) policy when another driver has insurance, but it’s not enough to cover your injuries. With UIM insurance coverage, if available, you would get coverage equal to the difference between the policy limits on your UM policy and the policy limits carried by the insurance policy of a negligent driver who caused an injury (the at-fault driver) in a car accident, motorcycle accident, or bicycle accident.

Understanding Wrongful Death Lawsuits in Oregon | Top-Rated Oregon injury Attorneys

  Understanding Wrongful Death Lawsuits in Oregon

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.

  Understanding the Risks of Biking: Bicycle Injuries in Oregon

For many in Oregon, bicycling is a way of life. It appeals equally to families out for slow rides and serious athletes alike.
