Is there bias that a motorcyclist must be at fault or "deserve" inuries in a motorcycle accident? | Top Oregon injury Attorneys

  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.

What is Oregon underinsured motorist (“UIM”) coverage? | Top-Rated Oregon injury Lawyers

  What is Oregon 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.

How much is my Oregon Personal Injury case worth? | Best Oregon injury Lawyers

  How much is my Oregon Personal Injury case worth?

Valuing any personal injury case requires consideration of many factors, and Personal Injury cases are no exception. The first determination in valuing an Oregon is determining fault. Who is at fault for the accident? Sometimes the answer is not entirely clear. Even though you may share fault (comparative negligence), you still may be entitled to compensation.

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

  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.
