Last year I fractured my scapula in a non work related injury. I was on short term disability and pressured to come back without a Dr's clearance due to staff shortages. Due to lack of employees light duty is not possible and now almost a year later my shoulder still throbs and I can't... Read more »
An Oregon attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. If there were attorneys involved in either the original injury claim or STD claim, they might be starting points as your first option in seeking direction.

SETTLEMENT VERY QUITE, There has to be a way of digging this up, But how if this employer kept this hush-hush
An Oregon attorney could answer best, but your post remains open for two weeks. As a general matter nationwide, some unified court systems display cases online. Some systems might require registration to use their resources. That would be if the matter was filed as a lawsuit with an index number.... Read more »
My car was hit on the rear passenger side. The crash report says my car was only going 5mph when hit.

Yes. You can sue. The fact you can sue does not mean you have strong case. It sounds like there might be some conflicting evidence that needs to be sorted out. The fact you were hit on the passenger's side door might indicate that you were not at-fault because clearly your car was struck.... Read more »

I own neighboring property to a large homeless camp in Washington county oregon. I've been told my property value had deceased 1000's and 1000's of dollars. Would there be a attorney to help me file suit and get paid a percentage of winnings? It's a very high profile piece of property.
I understand your obvious frustration. Clearly, you have lost perceived value of your property due to the conditions of the surrounding property. It could be thousands of dollars. Who to sue? Who is responsible for the loss you feel you have encountered? If you think the City could do more to... Read more »
His mirror broke off on my hip and threw me off my bike. He or she didnt stop. I went to the hospital but nothing was broken. Just severely bruised.
Assuming the driver of the vehicle that hit you was at-fault for the accident, you can sue if you find the person within the statute of limitations with enough time to get a lawsuit filed. If the incident happened in Oregon, your case must be filed or settled within 2 years.
If you have... Read more »

You would be looking to file a nuisance claim against the estate of the owner of the property. I would suggest you start by getting active by speaking with your representative on the town council.

Last summer I was rear ended while stopped by a big truck with a solid steel bumper while I was in my 2003 Hyundai. Over the next few months I developed back pain and stiffness, along with sciatica.

Yes, they can require this. If you review your policy I can guarantee you there is a clause that says you have to cooperate with your carrier, and that you must submit to what we call an IME. If they make you start going to a lot of them, then you might consider talking to an attorney to see at... Read more »

Whether a driver has insurance or a license doesn't matter as to fault. If you can prove he was speeding you would likely get some comparative fault on the motorcyclist.
But the place we where at didn’t have a stop sign and I had my 4 month old in the car and my back hurts really bad
I am very sorry this happened to you. Especially this time of the year, with COVID-19 impacting much of our lives. I am going to assume that you were not at-fault in this accident. First the health of you and your child are the most important thing. Fortunately, a well-protected baby can do well in... Read more »

An Oregon attorney could advise best, but you await a response for three weeks. Do you mean an EVICTION notice? Read it more carefully. If that's the case, repost this under Landlord-Tenant law and hopefully an experienced L-T attorney could offer meaningful guidance. Good luck

A woman became irate and threw coffee on me. As a result I slipped and fell onto the floor. I injured my arm and leg.
I am very sorry that you were injured. I hope that you receive proper treatment for both your arm and leg. The first step to a personal injury is to ensure that you take care of your health. You may have two possible claims. One for the intentional tort of assault/battery and one for negligence. It... Read more »
A lawyer is able to fight against their own city or county if the lawyer chooses to accept a case against the city or county. All state law claims against a governmental agency require that tort claim notice be received by the governmental agency or representative within 180 days, which is a... Read more »
I left the scene before cops arrived "Which is considered a "hit and run" the person who hit me is at fault and was not injured nor were any of her passengers. I have not filed a report, nor spoke with police about the matter. I am afraid, because I don't have insurance, I will... Read more »
You pose an interesting, and all too common set of issues. If you are in accident caused by someone's negligence, and do not have auto insurance, then you are entitled to recovery your monetary damages (for example, medical bills, lost wages, property loss). In other words, you cannot recover... Read more »

Can a store deny entry to someone who has a legitimate medical condition for not wearing a mask, who's doctor agrees that wearing a mask would cause this person harm, and is receiving disability for this condition?
An Oregon attorney could advise best here, as this could involve state measures, as well as federal measures, arising as a result of the pandemic. But the post remains open for two weeks - it's possible an attorney with insight into ADA and disability issues could have better insight into this... Read more »
