How Our Eugene Catastrophic Injury Attorneys Can Help

After a life-altering injury, your focus should be on healing—not dealing with insurance companies or worrying about long-term medical bills. At Strong Law, our Eugene catastrophic injury lawyers step in to manage the legal process so you can prioritize recovery.

Serious injuries often require extensive care, home modifications, and lost income that can overwhelm a family. Our attorneys work to remove the financial burden by holding the responsible party accountable.

Fighting for the Financial Support You Deserve

From the start, we investigate what happened, determine who’s at fault, and build a case for full compensation. That may include medical bills, therapy costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, and long-term care.

If your injury stems from a collision, our Eugene car accident lawyers or truck accident attorneys can collaborate to strengthen your case. We also frequently assist those hurt in construction site accidents and brain injury cases.

Legal Guidance from a Team That Knows the System

Insurance companies often pressure victims to settle quickly. But fast settlements rarely cover future complications. With Strong Law on your side, you get advocates who used to work inside the insurance system—we know how to push back.

To get started, contact our Eugene office at (541) 748-8636 or request a free case review online.

“Unbelievable work!”

"I had a claim involving my own insurance company. I tried to negotiate with them, and they completely denied my claim – two times. I then hired Strong Law, and the change was instant. The insurance company immediately began negotiating, and Jed was able to secure an unbelievably good settlement. I will never again attempt to take-on an insurance company without Strong Law in my corner. Thank you!"

What to Expect When You Receive a Settlement

After you win your case—whether through a negotiated settlement or trial verdict—there’s still a process before you receive your funds. Here’s what typically happens:

  • Finalizing the paperwork: You’ll sign a release or settlement agreement. If your case went to trial, the court must file a final judgment.
  • Insurance processing: The insurance company processes the claim and sends a check to our office. This may take a few days to a couple of weeks depending on the carrier.
  • Clearing and disbursing funds: We deposit the check into a client trust account, pay any medical liens or balances, and deduct agreed-upon legal fees. Once cleared, the balance is sent to you directly.

We make sure this process is transparent and as fast as possible so you can move forward with peace of mind.

Recoverable Damages in a Catastrophic Injury Case

If you or a loved one suffered a life-altering injury, you may be entitled to compensation for both financial losses and the personal impact of the accident. These damages fall into two main categories:

Economic Damages

These are direct financial losses with measurable costs, such as:

  • Emergency room care, surgery, and follow-up medical visits
  • Rehabilitation, physical therapy, and long-term in-home care
  • Lost wages during recovery and loss of future earning capacity
  • Home modifications and medical equipment (e.g., ramps, wheelchairs)
  • Property damage from the incident
  • Funeral and burial costs in fatal cases

Non-Economic Damages

These compensate for the emotional and physical hardships resulting from your injury:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress and trauma
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Loss of companionship or consortium
  • Scarring, disfigurement, or permanent disability

Our Eugene attorneys can help calculate and present these damages clearly to the insurance company or in court, ensuring you pursue the full value of your case.

Frequently Asked Questions About Catastrophic Injuries in Eugene

What types of accidents cause catastrophic injuries?

Severe injuries can result from vehicle collisions, workplace incidents, construction accidents, and unsafe property conditions. Our team helps clients facing trauma from spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, burns, and amputations. Visit our spinal injury and brain injury pages for more details.

What damages can I recover?

You may be entitled to economic damages (medical bills, lost income, rehabilitation costs) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of quality of life).

How long do I have to file a claim in Oregon?

Oregon’s statute of limitations for personal injury is generally two years from the date of injury. It’s best to contact a lawyer as soon as possible to protect your rights.

Will the insurance company offer a fair settlement?

Most initial offers are lower than what your case is truly worth. Insurers often hope you’ll accept a quick payout. Let our attorneys review the offer before you sign anything.

Can I still file a claim if I’m partially at fault?

Yes. Oregon follows a comparative negligence system, which means your compensation may be reduced based on your percentage of fault—but you can still recover damages if you’re less than 51% at fault.

How do I afford a catastrophic injury lawyer?

We work on a contingency fee basis. You pay nothing upfront. If we don’t win, you don’t owe us anything.
