Most car accident cases in Oregon settle out of court, but when insurers dispute fault or refuse fair compensation, litigation may be the next step. Going to court can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re already dealing with injuries, medical bills, and missed work. The good news is that court is a structured process, not a punishment, and preparation makes all the difference.
From filing the lawsuit and exchanging evidence to mediation, trial, and verdict, each phase is designed to clarify the facts and hold the right parties accountable. Many cases still settle during litigation once insurers see the case is trial-ready.
