Offer Of Judgment Analyzer in Oregon

Under Oregon’s offer of judgment rule, the $10,000 figure is the threshold amount that determines when the statutory cost-shifting provision applies to a valid offer to compromise and allow judgment. Governed by ORS § 17.065, the rule allows a party to serve an offer that, if rejected and the final judgment is not more favorable than the offer, shifts certain costs to the offeree. The statute sets out the conditions for a valid offer and the consequences of rejection. The official source at the Oregon Legislature website provides the exact text of the rule, including any factors and exceptions. The worked example below demonstrates how the $10,000 figure interacts with the judgment amount. Use the calculator to estimate how the rule applies to your specific case.
