What is the name of your state? OR
Was struck by a vehicle one week ago while on my bicycle. There was a witness and as far as I know the driver & her insurance are accepting fault. Police did arrive on the scene - but I was told that here in Oregon, if there is not a serious injury/death that they do no further investigation. I was taken to the ER in an ambulance - suffering from a broken left clavicle (collarbone) - not serious enough I suppose! Just looking for some guidance/advice. I have spoken to a lawyer - however I have not retained one at this point. Having never gone through something like this, I'm wondering what I can expect in re: to insurance companies, compensation, etc. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state?
