Injury Claims


If you or a loved one has been injured, it is important to have an Oregon or Washington lawyer evaluate any personal injury claim you may have. The law provides strict deadlines for bringing personal injury, insurance and wrongful death claims. Drunk driver and public entity claims are often subject to a deadline of 180-days, not two years. A Washington or Oregon personal injury lawyer at our firm can provide a free consultation to discuss your injuries and legal rights. 

Our Washington and Oregon injury lawyers offer free consultations for most claims in all our personal injury practice areas, including products liability, physical and sex abuse, and vehicle / bicycle / pedestrian collision cases.
