Client Results

We have handled cases across Oregon involving issues that arise from business disputes, auto accidents, alleged construction defects, personal injury claims and professional malpractice claims. In some instances, we are retained by an insurance company on behalf of our clients. In other instances, our clients do not have insurance and retain us directly.

Below are examples of some of the cases, which we have successfully handled.
