NW Injury Law Center
Beaverton Personal Injury Lawyer
Trial attorneys helping injured people in Beaverton and across Washington County pursue full compensation.
Beaverton is one of the largest cities in Washington County and one of the busiest commuter corridors in the Portland metro area. Between the US-26 (Sunset Highway) interchange, Oregon 217, Canyon Road, and the TV Highway, tens of thousands of drivers pass through Beaverton every day, many of them commuting to and from the Nike, Tektronix, and Intel campuses nearby. That volume of traffic, combined with heavy MAX light rail and pedestrian activity around the Beaverton Transit Center, makes for a steady stream of serious car, pedestrian, and bicycle collisions.
If you were hurt in a Beaverton accident, NW Injury Law Center can help. Our attorneys work from our Portland office and represent injured clients throughout Washington County on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing unless we recover compensation for you.
Where Beaverton crashes happen
Certain Beaverton corridors show up in our caseload again and again. The OR-217 and US-26 interchange backs up daily and is a common site of rear-end and lane-change collisions. Canyon Road and the Beaverton-Hillsdale Highway carry heavy local traffic through dense retail areas, creating conflict points between left-turning vehicles and pedestrians. TV Highway (OR-8), which runs through central Beaverton toward Hillsboro, has a long history of pedestrian and bicycle crashes because of its wide, high-speed design through commercial and residential neighborhoods alike.
Around the Beaverton Transit Center, where MAX Blue Line trains, buses, cars, and pedestrians all converge, we also see a meaningful number of pedestrian and bicycle injury claims involving turning vehicles. Neighborhoods such as Cedar Hills, Aloha, and Raleigh Hills feed heavy commuter traffic onto these same roads every morning and evening.
County court and medical care
Beaverton is in Washington County, and civil injury claims that are not resolved with the insurance company are filed in Washington County Circuit Court in Hillsboro, the county seat. For emergency medical care, Beaverton residents are commonly treated at Providence St. Vincent Medical Center just outside the city along the Sunset Highway corridor, along with other Portland-area trauma centers for the most serious injuries. Records from these providers are often central to proving the extent of your injuries.

Oregon fault and filing deadlines
Oregon is a modified comparative fault state. Under ORS 31.600, you can recover compensation as long as you were not more than 50 percent at fault for the accident; your damages are reduced by your own percentage of fault. Oregon also sets a statute of limitations of two years from the date of injury for most personal injury claims under ORS 12.110, so it is important to speak with an attorney well before that deadline to protect your right to file.
