How Will I Know When I Need an Accident and Personal Injury Attorney in Roseburg, OR?


If you suffer a personal injury from any type of accident, whether it occurs in your vehicle, at someone’s home where you are a guest, or on public property, call our offices to discuss your next steps.

No matter how simple you believe your injury to be, or how severe you know it is, the costs associated with your care and the time away from work you’ll need to recover should never come out of your pocket.

Negligent behavior and the injuries that result from it can be life-changing. We will help you hold the offending party responsible for their actions while giving you the time you need to heal.

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.

ROSEBURG 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

Car accidents can happen without notice, and when the other driver is operating a vehicle negligently, you are placed in an incredibly vulnerable position – completely at their mercy. Because of these surprise circumstances, the resulting injuries can be very serious, requiring extended care. Property damage, medical bills, and lost wages are only the beginning of your troubles as the emotional toll the injuries can take may be greater than the visible ones. We can help alleviate your pain and difficulties with our experience and aggressive approach to holding negligent drivers responsible for their faults.

Bicycle Crashes and Collisions

Often times, bicyclists believe that if they are involved in an accident on a trail, with another cyclist or pedestrian, that they are not entitled to pursuing financial recovery from the person or party who caused their injuries. This could not be further from the truth. When negligence of any type results in an accident with injury, including those that occur while on bicycles, the offending party can – and should – be held responsible.

Dog Bites and Dog Attacks

Dog bites can occur at any time, especially in public when individuals are not paying attention to their pooch when other people are enjoying the outdoors too. They can also occur in a friend or family member’s home, by a dog you know and love. Dog attacks are usually the result of a loose, dangerous dog that has made it outside of his or her home or yard, which is negligence on the owner’s behalf. No matter where your unprovoked dog bite or attack occurs in Roseburg, OR, you may be able to pursue the owner and their insurance company for negligence, leading to a financial settlement that will allow you to seek the best medical care available while you recover from your injuries.

ATV and Motorcycle Accidents

Enjoying the sights and sounds of Roseburg, OR from a motorcycle or ATV can be exhilarating. The beautiful sights and the fresh air are unmatched in our community, but the dangers can be hidden and devastating. ATV and motorcycle injuries can include brain, spine, and neck injuries that require weeks, months, or even years of recovery time. While the medical care is costly, the time away from work leads to lost wages, and possibly even the loss of benefits. We can help you pursue the negligent person or party who caused your injuries and hold them responsible for the financial needs that resulted from the accident.

Trips, Slips, and Falls Injuries

Much like dog bites, trips, slips, and falls can happen in public, where you are enjoying your time with friends and in private locations where you are a guest. These premises liability cases can be complex and require an experienced attorney group’s representation to ensure you are pursuing the proper owner, operator, or responsible party for your injuries and the costs associated with them. Allow our firm to do the research and investigation, so the unsafe property is no longer a danger to others.

Brain, Spine and Neck Injuries

The brain, spine, and neck injuries that occur during accidents can vary greatly in their need for medical care, but none of these instances should be left to chance. If you hit your head during a slip, trip, and fall accident, or are involved in a car, motorcycle or truck accident, it is imperative that a medical team evaluate your injuries immediately. While a broken arm should also be attended to right away, brain, neck, and spine injuries can become life-changing ailments that compromise your mobility and overall health. Once you have received medical care, contact our office so we can begin formulating an aggressive, solution-focused case against the person who caused your injuries, so we can pursue the proper financial settlement you deserve.

Nursing Home Abuse and Elder Law

No matter how much research you and your family do before trusting a nursing home or caregiver with your elderly loved one’s medical, personal, and quality of life needs, it is up to the company to ensure their employees are practicing the best care available. When mistreatment, negligence or abuse becomes part of your loved one’s experience, action must be taken swiftly. At Dwyer Williams Cherkoss Attorneys, PC, our experience in this area of law is unmatched in Roseburg, OR. We will never tolerate elder abuse and will pursue the individual causing their pain, and their company who employed this individual, immediately so you can get some peace of mind while the process unfolds.

Semi-Truck and Tractor Trailer Injuries

Weighing up to 45,000 pounds, and extending 53 feet behind the cab, semi-truck and tractor trailers are an imposing sight on the roadways. And their real danger comes when they are being operated by an impaired driver. Whether he or she is lacking sleep, is distracted, or under the influence, the split second it takes to overturn one of these massive vehicles is too important for negligence to come into play. Our truck accident attorneys in Roseburg, OR will pursue the driver, the trucking company, or any third-party companies who contributed to its negligent existence on the roadway.

Wrongful Death Cases

Often, truck accident cases lead to wrongful death cases. The sheer size of these trucks can cause such extensive damage to the passenger vehicle it collides with that the person simply does not make it through the accident. When this happens, or any time someone loses a loved one to another’s negligent actions or inactions, our wrongful death attorneys will pursue the financial damages that are shockingly and suddenly left to deal with. The grieving is substantial. And we would like to take the lead in helping you see beyond the accident, and into the future of your financial needs so you can grieve at your own pace.

Workers’ Compensation Claims

Workers’ compensation in Roseburg, OR can be a complex web of dealing with your employer’s demands and those of the state. Our attorneys will help cut through the red tape, so you can focus on your medical care, and time away from work, while we develop an exceptional case that allows you all the time you need to heal. Don’t be confused by the paperwork, pertinent filing deadlines, and overall medical requirements that mandate your care. Our workers’ compensation attorneys will handle each detail of your claim while keeping you up to speed with every progression made on paper and in the courtroom.

Our Roseburg Branch

At Dwyer Williams Cherkoss Attorneys, PC, our Roseburg, OR community, and their well-being is the focus of our firm. Douglas County, Oregon residents require exceptional legal representation after an accident, and with our over 75 years of combined experience, and millions of dollars recovered for our community’s injury victims, our plan for excellence in the courtrooms is fully reflected in our track record.
