Multnomah County Car Accident Lawyer
Multnomah County car accident attorney Sarah Nelson helps people who have been injured in auto accidents and other accidents reclaim their lives by holding other drivers accountable for the harm they cause. When we take your motor vehicle accident case, we begin by completing a thorough review and investigation of all the facts and laws involved. Based on the law and facts, we can help you predict what the range of outcome of your case might be and help you make the right choices about what actions to take.
Dangerous and Defective Products
When accidents or injuries occur, it can be difficult to know exactly what caused them. Looking deeper into the situation often reveals that defective products were to blame. These products may be defective in many ways. They may have been sold without the proper warnings in place, designed in ways that are dangerous or manufactured defectively.
When products such as car parts, consumer products, medicines, toys, cribs, tools and other goods cause harm, we make manufacturers and distributors pay by filing defective products liability lawsuits in Oregon courts.
Injuries on Someone Else's Property
Under Oregon law, property owners have a duty to protect others from dangerous conditions that exist on their property, and the law protects people who were hurt on others' properties by holding property owners accountable for the harm. At Sarah Nelson's Portland law firm, we represent people who were injured by dangerous conditions — things like wet floors, slippery sidewalks, broken stairways and railings, roofs and faulty security — by filing premises liability lawsuits in Oregon courts. Some of the cases we handle involve people who were injured by dog attacks on others' property or their own.
Medical Malpractice
Doctors and other medical professionals are required to follow the standard of care. When the standard of care is overlooked, serious injuries and deaths can occur. Our law firm handles medical malpractice claims arising from birth injuries, medical negligence, dental negligence and more. We have extensive knowledge of the complex nature of these claims and seek fair compensation for our injured clients.
Maritime Injuries and Jones Act Claims
If you have suffered personal injuries on a maritime vessel, attorney Sarah Nelson can represent you in your Jones Act claim. Jones Act injury cases are very fact-specific, so prompt and thorough evidence gathering is critical to the success of a claim. Our law firm takes immediate action, collecting information that is leveraged to our clients' advantage.
