Our personal injury lawyers and wrongful death lawyers have extensive experience handling cases involving serious auto, trucking and motorcycle accidents in Salem and across the state of Oregon.

Leading Causes of Motor Vehicle Accidents

When a person’s negligence causes a vehicle crash, he or she can (and should) be held accountable, especially when there are serious injuries or fatalities involved. Some acts of negligence include the following:

• Drunk driving
• Driving while under the influence of drugs
• Driving at excessive speeds
• Reckless driving
• Running a red light or stop sign
• Driving without headlights on
• Failing to obey traffic laws
• Talking on a cell phone
• Texting while driving
• Looking at a map or other direction device
• Eating while driving
• Switching lanes without using proper signal

Even if you are not sure what exactly caused the car crash, we may be able to help you seek financial compensation for your injuries and losses. Damages may include medical bills, lost wages if your injury prevents you from working, property damage, emotional suffering, and more.

Auto/Truck/Motorcycle Crash Injuries

Injuries sustained in car, truck or motorcycle crashes can vary from mild to severe, and from temporary to permanent. The worst injuries can change a person’s life forever, and may result in disfigurement, permanent disability, paralysis, brain damage and more. The impact of a large commercial truck can result in serious crushing injuries. And, the lack of protection for motorcycle riders can result in severe burn injuries and lost limbs.

In one instant, your life as you know it, can change dramatically in a vehicle accident. At Adams Hill & Hess, we recognize the damaging effects of car crashes and have committed much of our practice to helping individuals and their families. Those injured, killed, and otherwise affected by auto, truck or motorcycle accidents  are able to recover the most or even the full amount of compensation they are entitled to.
