Bend and Redmond Accident Injury Lawyer
As someone who was raised in Madras, Oregon, Central Oregon holds a special place in my heart as well as my law practice. My family still lives in Central Oregon, and I spend a great deal of time there.
From Madras to Redmond, Bend to Sisters, Sunriver or Black Butte to Prineville, Central Oregon is one of the most unique parts of the state. I understand the Central Oregon terrain, I understand Central Oregon living and I understand what it means to be a Central Oregonian.
Part of my personal injury practice is aimed at helping Central Oregon residents who have suffered injuries in accidents recover compensation and get their lives back to normal.
I handle all types of Central Oregon personal injury accident cases, including:
- Car Accidents
- Pedestrian Accidents
- Recreational Accidents
- Boating Accidents
- Ski Accidents
- Bicycling Accidents
- Trucking Accidents
- Slip and Fall / Premises liability Cases
- Dog Bites and Animal Attacks
- Defective and Dangerous Products
No injury is too small, and all of my clients' injuries are treated with the seriousness they deserve. In addition to all types of accidents, I handle all types of personal injuries, including: soft tissue, whiplash, broken bones, burns and abrasions, sprains and strains, neck injuries, spinal cord injuries, back injuries, brain injuries and brain damage. I also assist the surviving families of Central Oregon residents who have died in accidents recover for wrongful death.
I conduct free same and next day home and hospital legal consultations throughout Deschutes County, Jefferson County and Central Oregon. While I am based in Portland, I will give you the personal touch of a car accident lawyer right down the street in Redmond, Bend or Madras. But, I am not a general practitioner. I don't do anything other than injury cases. My day begins and ends with helping victims of accidents-car accidents, bicycle accidents, pedestrian accidents and everything in between-get a fair recovery for their injuries.
What this means is I will take the experience I've gained in handling hundreds of injury claims in Portland and combine that with the sensibility of someone who knows the Central Oregon community and its residents.
Most importantly, I will not settle your case for pennies on the dollar. Insurance companies will try to get you to settle for a fraction of what your case is worth. They will tell you that you don't need a lawyer; that they will take care of you and get your case settled with no hassle. Insurance adjusters are paid to tell you this from the second your make an insurance claim related to a car accident or other type of accident. They save money every time an injury victim agrees to play the game on their terms without legal representation.
When you engage the Sarah Nelson, P.C., I immediately change the rules of engagement. I analyze the legal and factual issues surrounding your claim. I investigate the accident, interview fact witnesses and line up experts to prove the cause and degree of your injury. As a former lawyer for the insurance companies, the insurance companies know me and they know that your claim needs to be taken seriously when I get involved.
At the same time, once I've worked up your case and obtained for you a fair offer, I will give you the straight advice on when it's time to settle your case and move on with your life. If that fair offer never comes, I will take your case to trial and I will not rest until we have told your injury story to a jury of your peers.
I understand Central Oregon and its juries. The juries are your neighbors, your service providers, your community teachers and the people you share the road with every day. Understanding that dynamic is what separates the simply average lawyers from the great lawyers.
If you have been injured in an accident, you can handle your injury insurance claim yourself. But there are good reasons why you might not want to. When you have been in an accident, you need to accomplish two things: get healthy and seek recovery from those who caused your injuries. I can handle the second task for you. I can maximize your recovery with minimal intrusion into your daily life.
