Can I still recover compensation in a multiple vehicle accident?
When more than just two cars are involved in an accident, it can mean that multiple people are at fault. Naturally, this has the potential to directly impact compensation awards. Oregon is a modified comparative negligence state, which means the compensation you receive is based on your percentage of responsibility for the accident.
If you are 20 percent responsible and the other parties are 80 percent responsible, your compensation will be deducted by 20 percent.
You may be able to recover compensation for the following:
- Pain and suffering
- Medical bills
- Lost wages
- Property damage and loss
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Emotional distress
Without legal representation, you may be blamed for more of the accident than you were actually responsible for, causing you to obtain far less compensation than you deserve. Your rights matter and a personal injury attorney can fight for exactly what you are entitled to.
