Catastrophic Injury
Any injury sustained in an accident caused by the negligence of another may be catastrophic. And injuries can have far reaching effects beyond physical damage. But in legal terms catastrophic injuries include those requiring drastic medical treatment and have a long-term or permanent effect on the victim’s life. Catastrophic injuries generally demand a lifetime of medical care and rehabilitation or major reconstructive surgeries over a period of time. Types of catastrophic injuries that we have represented include burn injuries, head injuries and loss of appendages. Contact us today to find out how our personal injury attorneys can help you.
Gas Explosion
Oregon residents are familiar with the dangers of natural gas and the possibility of injury from explosion. And so are our attorneys. Millions of Americans in the private and business sectors rely on natural and propane gas to power major appliances and utilities. When natural gas appliances are properly installed and used, it is a reliable, clean and relatively cheap energy source for Oregon residents. Unfortunately, defective products, violations of applicable codes or unsafe servicing of utilities may cause serious accidents including gas explosions. In Oregon, gas explosions are a serious threat to home and business owners. For more information about gas explosions please contact our personal injury attorneys today.

Truck Accident
The trucking industry makes up a large part of Portland and Oregon’s commerce. As a result, many residents have been involved in a truck accident or know those who have. Truck accidents can be particularly devastating because of the sheer size of the vehicle responsible for the accident. Semi trucks, or tractor-trailers, are huge vehicles that are difficult to maneuver and slow down, especially on Oregon’s narrow and winding roads. Consequently, truck drivers often fail to avoid accidents with other trucks or smaller, more vulnerable autos on the roadway. The reason we separate truck accident litigation from auto accidents is because our attorneys’ strategies are tailored to more effectively handle each situation. Truck accidents in the Portland, Oregon area are a specific type of incident that require special attention from our truck accident attorneys. If you or a family member in Oregon has been involved in a truck accident, our attorneys can take care of your needs for representation.

But we assure every client the personal attention you deserve to receive the compensation necessary to continue on with your life. While no amount of money can replace the loss of a loved one or repair severe injuries, we can provide you with the legal and emotional support necessary to overcome your case.
