Common Types of Personal Injuries
Injuries occur in the context of motor vehicle accidents, pedestrian accidents, nursing home abuse, and even medical malpractice. As a result, victims often face mounting medical expenses, loss of income, and a decreased quality of life.
This is where personal injury law comes in. Civil injury claims seek to provide financial coverage for any physical or emotional harm caused by negligence or the wrongful or negligent act of another person or entity. [1]
In 2021, Salem experienced 22 fatalities in motor vehicle accidents, trailing only behind Portland within the state of Oregon.
Personal injuries can occur in various ways and encompass a wide range of harm. Common types of personal injuries include:
- Amputations
- Broken Bones
- Burn Injuries
- Concussions
- Hearing Loss
- Internal Organ Damage
- Knee Injuries
- Lung Cancer and Mesothelioma
- Neck Injuries
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
- Shoulder Injuries
- Spinal Cord Injuries
- Soft Tissue Injuries
- Scarring and Disfigurement
- Traumatic Brain Injuries
- Whiplash
If a personal injury results in an unexpected death, a wrongful death lawsuit may be filed by surviving family members in order to seek funeral and burial costs as well as compensation for lost income.

Possible Compensatory Damages for Personal Injuries
In a personal injury case, compensatory damages are sought to help the injured party recover from their injuries’ physical, emotional, and financial consequences. These damages can be divided into two categories: economic damages and non-economic damages.
- Economic damages are quantifiable losses that result from the injury. They include medical expenses, such as hospital bills, doctor visits, rehabilitation costs, and medication expenses. Lost wages and loss of earning capacity may also be considered economic damages, as they reflect the income the injured party would have earned if not for the injury.
- Non-economic damages are more difficult to quantify as they address the intangible losses suffered by the injured party. These damages compensate for pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, wrongful death, and the impact the injury has had on the injured person's relationships and overall quality of life.
The value of a personal injury case is influenced by several factors. The amount of insurance coverage available, the presence of pre-existing injuries or conditions, and the degree of comparative fault can impact the overall case value.
Comparative fault refers to the degree of responsibility the injured party bears for the accident. Depending on the jurisdiction, the number of damages awarded can be reduced if the injured party is found partially responsible for the accident.
Statutes of Limitation for Personal Injuries in Salem
In Salem, individuals have a period of two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Failing to file within the Statute of Limitation can result in the dismissal of your case. This means that you may lose the opportunity to recover compensation for your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
