You could, but unlike dogs, there is no statute as to economic damages that makes it easier to win: https://www.oregonlaws.org/ors/31.360

Because you did not have insurance, you may not be able to recover for your pain and suffering. You would be able to go after them for your economic losses (medical bills, property damage), and there can be exceptions as to the pain and suffering part - namely if you were uninsured for a short time...

This should not be an issue as to copyright, as addresses would not in this format likely be copyright-able.

Could be an issue as to personality rights though.

If you are requesting punitive damages, you really need to have an attorney as this is a complex process.

I'm not seeing where they say anything negative, they just keep it to simple facts, and there is no way to force them to fill out someone else's form.

Yes, they can, or at least most likely. Employment is at will, meaning they can change any conditions of employment as well with prior notice. That would include your position. The exception would be if you have an actual contract saying you are to work a specific job and only that position. The... View More

He cannot hold your tools or paycheck, or at least most likely, and would be subject to penalty wages for withholding the check. I would contact an employment law attorney in your area to discuss your options. Most have a free initial consultation, and many take cases like this on a contingency.... View More

It is really impossible for any attorney to provide a comprehensive response without knowing what the name is. The state will literally let you register just about any name if no one else is using it. Trademark though is much harder to provide an answer, though if your search via TESS found... View More

Yes, this is legal, an employer is not required to inform an employee as to why they were fired, regardless of how long they have been an employee. But, she should make sure she receives her final paycheck no later than the end of the next business day. If she does/did not, she can get potentially... View More

This would be what we call medical malpractice, and it happens because we are humans and prone to errors. Hopefully she did not have any bad reactions. If she did, then you would have a good medical malpractice case. If she was not harmed, there is still a small case, but not worth much (I settled... View More

No, your lease is with the owner, just managed by the property manager.

For not being able to cover the shift, there is no protection (note the law is changing on that, but it does not apply to all employers). For the assault, you may have a case against the manager and the employer for that, potentially even a wrongful discharge if you were fired for reporting the... View More

Generally speaking all drivers owe a legal duty not to hit pedestrians. To prove the then breach, you convince the jury or arbitrator that they breached this duty and that you were not at fault. If you were in a crosswalk or walking on the side of the road, that tends to be easy. If you were... View More

Oregon is at will, meaning they do not need cause to fire you. They literally could fire you because you wore a blue hat to work. Now, once the Predictable Scheduling Law takes effect next year, then they would not be able to fire you for something like this, assuming the employer is subject to the... View More

You can file in small claims court, but it is not 8 times what they owe you. It is 8 hours of pay per day they are late. So, you get 8 hours of pay starting tomorrow.

I would actually suggest waiting until you get your final paycheck (Amazon will probably due it in a few days), that way you... View More

This information from the bar should help guide you: https://www.osbar.org/public/legalinfo/1256_GettingRepairsMade.htm

Prior incidents, or witnesses that were told by the landowner of the condition.

Unfortunately, it dos not sound like it. If the issues were related to you being in a protected class, that would be a different story, but you make no mention of the issues being related to that.

Usually yes, but if your lease has some sort of landscape maintenance provision that allows them to for that purpose, then they would not if that is why they are there.

Hard to say, as you may have your terminology confused. If you settled for $150k, then you settled for that amount which reflects any discount (or should). If you got a jury verdict for $150k, with a 25% reduction then the award is $112,500, and your attorney would take 25% of that, which is... View More
