Understanding Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a type of injury that occurs when an external force traumatically injures the brain.

In 2020, over 13,500 Oregonians experienced a brain injury, as reported by the Oregon Health Authority. [2]

Statute of Limitations for Traumatic Brain Injury Cases in Oregon

In Oregon, the Statute of Limitations for traumatic brain injury cases is generally two years from the date of the injury. This means that a lawsuit must be filed within two years of the traumatic brain injury occurring, or you may lose the right to seek compensation for your injury.

Missing the deadline for filing a lawsuit can result in your case being dismissed by the court, and you may be unable to recover any compensation for your brain injury.
