A personal injury is exactly what the name implies, an injury sustained by an individual. Usually, that injury is physical, but it can also be mental or emotional and can even include injuries to property. In a personal injury case, the injury would have been caused by someone other than the victim. This causation legally obligates the negligent or faulty party to pay for losses associated with the injury. In order to establish causation or fault, a personal injury attorney will provide evidence and reasoning to prove that:
- The accused had a duty to the victim
- The accused violated or did not fulfill that duty
- The victim was injured in some way
- The injury was caused by the breach of the accused’s duty
Gathering the necessary evidence and information to prove these points is a time-consuming and complex task. A personal injury attorney is familiar with the legal requirements to build such a claim.
MEDFORD ACCIDENTS AND INJURIES
WE WILL FIGHT FOR THE MONEY YOU DESERVE
If you’ve been injured in any sort of accident in which another individual or entity is at fault you should speak with an experienced attorney. This can be especially important in cases that involve insurance claims. Whether it is your insurance company or the at fault party’s, they rarely have your best interest in mind. Here are the most common types of personal injury cases.
Car/Automobile Accidents
Automobile accidents may not reveal the true extent of your injuries right away. The jarring experience can traumatize you for months, even years to come. If you have been involved in a car crash in Medford, OR, contact our experienced automobile accident lawyers today. We can help you get the medical care you need and pursue the negligent party who caused your injuries to the full extent of your expenses.
Bicycle Accidents and Collisions
Bicycle accidents are truly life-changing, as the force of colliding with a vehicle can cause extensive injuries and take away the joy you once had while riding. What’s more is that it is often difficult to prove the driver of the vehicle was at fault. At Dwyer Williams Cherkoss Attorneys, PC, our experienced and investigative approach will shed the necessary legal light on your injuries to ensure you are receiving the proper compensation after such a devastating accident.
Dog Bites and Dog Attacks
Infections. Scarring. Disfigurement. These are all possible results of a dog bite or dog attack in Medford, OR. From a legal standpoint, several troubling factors are in play after an animal hurts a human. First, is the community safe from the dog going forward? Second, medical care is an absolute necessity, and it can be costly. Extensive healing time, reconstructive surgery, and ongoing medical care can consume the lives of dog bite victims. If this has happened to you or a loved one, we want to help you hold the owner responsible for their negligence.
ATV and Motorcycle Accidents
The beauty of Oregon beckons motorcycle and ATV riders with promises of breathtaking landscapes, and exciting terrains. These same highlights also extend danger, as the riders are vulnerable without the protection passenger vehicles provide. When an accident does occur, the results can be devastating. If you or a loved one were in an ATV or motorcycle accident, let us help you pursue the financial recovery you are going to need to move forward with the quality of life you once enjoyed.
Back, Neck & Brain Injury Cases
The back, neck, and brain are so important to each person’s mobility, comfort, and happiness, that when an accident occurs and compromises these vital body parts, life can change forever. Intensive therapy, long-term medical care, and even paralysis not only alter life’s activities, but the financial fallout can be equally traumatic. If you were in an accident with a negligent driver, you should not be the one who has to pay for this costly care, and at Dwyer Williams Cherkoss Attorneys, PC, our personal injury attorneys in Medford, OR will work tirelessly to pursue the financial settlement or verdict you need.
Nursing Home Abuse and Elder Law
When you trust a nursing home to care for your elderly loved one and they breach that trust by hiring unlicensed or under-trained employees to provide that care, the negligence involved can ruin lives. The very idea of your loved one falling into the wrong hands is devastating, but when it becomes a reality, your – and their – rights must be upheld in the courtroom. There is no excuse for elder or nursing home abuse, and our attorneys will devote all our resources to ensuring the proper parties are held responsible.
Semi-Truck and Tractor Trailer Accidents
The winding Oregonian roads are great for sightseeing. Unfortunately, they are also traversed by larger vehicles, including semi-trucks and tractor trailers that are enormous, overbearing, and possibly being operated by a driver who hasn’t had enough sleep. The fact is, when a semi-truck accident occurs in the United States, 78% of the fatalities occur within the passenger vehicle they collide with. If you were injured in a truck accident in Medford, OR, or lost a loved one due to a truck driver’s negligence, let us help you pursue justice today.
Slip, Trip and Fall Injuries
Slips, trips, and falls are incredibly common in the U.S. and are extremely dangerous in nature. The surprising aspect of these jarring accidents can cause severe injury, including muscle, bone, and tendon injuries that can take months to heal while impeding your ability to work. Mounting medical bills and lack of income can cause consistent stress, which will not help those injured in a slip, trip or fall heal. If you have been injured in any of these scenarios resulting from someone’s negligence, contact us right away to seek financial restitution from the offending party.
Workers’ Compensation Claims
Workers’ Compensation laws in Oregon can be complex, and if you do not know your rights, you may not be receiving the medical care, time away from work, or other benefits you are entitled to. Never pursue a workers’ compensation claim alone. Follow the rules set forth by your company’s reporting requirements, seek medical care, and call our Workers’ Compensation attorneys in Medford, OR right away. We will not allow anyone to take advantage of you or compromise your right to heal.
Wrongful Death Claims
Losing a loved one is incredibly tough, but when negligent circumstances rip your family member away from you suddenly, the effects are devastating. Although you may not consider the financial aspect of their loss right away, the grieving process will eventually lead to the unknown. How are you going to pay for a proper burial? How are you going to pay the bills your loved one took care of? What happens to his or her pension and insurance benefits? Our wrongful death attorneys can help you answer these questions and more, focusing on the individual or party who negligently caused your loss for financial recovery.

Highly recommend.
I have been a lawyer for 14 years. Over the years, I have had numerous tough personal injury cases. I brought Tim Williams in on many of them because of his expertise in personal injury. He knows this area of law inside and out. His reputation in Oregon is second to none and he is a pleasure to work with. Each one of those cases resulted in a positive financial outcome for the client. Highly recommend.

Like I had a big brother looking out for me
I was injured in an automobile accident and needed legal assistance. I met with Tim Williams, he answered all my questions and took charge of the case. He was very professional and made me feel like I had a big brother looking out for me. I received a very fair settlement due to all of Tim's hard work and I would recommend him to anyone I cared about.
