Daniel C. Lorenz, Attorney At Law, Reveals Facts About Car Accidents

(Portland, Oregon)  When someone has been injured through no fault of their own, an injury attorney steps in to ensure this person is compensated accordingly.  “Finding an attorney with the right combination of experience and knowledge is essential to a fair legal case,” Daniel C. Lorenz, attorney at law explains. Personal injury comes in many forms and when one has been injured due to the neglect, strict liability or intentional misconduct of another, compensation is needed. This compensation must cover more than medical bills and attorney fees though.

Lost wages should also be included in the payment along with many other things. “A personal injury attorney in Portland Oregon, through years of practice, understands the complexities of calculating fair compensation and works to ensure no area is overlooked.” The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states that, in 2010, motor vehicle crashes accounted for $99 billion in terms of medical care and productivity losses.  This works out of $500 per licensed driver in the country.

Furthermore, they state that Americans are treated in emergency rooms across the country every ten seconds for injuries related to a car crash. This data was collected in 2005 by the CDC. "When one is injured in an accident of this type, an attorney is of great assistance in dealing with the various parties involved, ranging from the insurance companies to witnesses who must be interviewed for legal purposes.

Legal representation ensures the person can focus on what is most important, getting his or her health back.  "Lawyers are a necessary part of society and yet many overlook their benefits until mistakes have already been made. Don’t end up in this situation. Contact an attorney for advice before taking any legal action. The results will be more favorable when this step is taken.”

Daniel C. Lorenz is well known and respected in Washington, Oregon and California. Practicing law for more than 30 years now, Mr. Lorenz earned degrees from California’s Stanford University and Portland’s Lewis and Clark and his experience includes victims’ representation, wrongful death, motor vehicle accident injury, and more.
