Electrocuted? Then you are dead now if that's what you mean. Probably you got an electric shock. Unless this caused a medical problem where you ended up needing medical treatment this isn't going to be the type of case that most Attorneys could find a way to take economically. So if... View More

I don't know what ADP stands for. It's not common lingo for Oregon PI Attorneys. I also don't know what you mean by serving papers on the insurance company? You don't serve papers on an insurance company unless you are suing them for something. Normally you serve the person... View More

No.

It is unclear whether this is still in an informal state of resolution or if you are being sued in court. Either way, you likely do indeed need the aid of a landlord-tenant attorney. Simply make an appointment to review everything with a local one and see where you go from there.

Depends, are they a licensed contractor? If they are, then you should be good. If you hired someone else, well, you were not supposed to and you may be on the hook. File a claim with your homeowner's policy and see if they can sort it out.

I don't see a malpractice case nor do I see one any attorney would take. If you want contact a member of the Oregon Assn for Justice that handles malpractice. Do avoid discussing this on social media as your mom may have problems seeing a doctor if your family gets a reputaiton of... View More

This is why you should have hired an attorney back when you received the notice of the small claims case. You may be able to have the judgment set aside, but seek out a consumer protection attorney (not me) ASAP. Not next week, NOW. Use Google and search to find one. Time is of the essence, and was...

Your question contains two different issues. One is financial liability. That is easy to deal with. Call your home owners or renters insurance company and report the incident. Insurance companies are very skilled at dealing with inflated claims and that is what your premium dollars really go to... View More

If seriously injured, consult with a personal injury attorney to confirm.

Depends on how you were injured, as in whose fault was it. Be careful, you have to send a tort claim notice within 180 days of the injury though.

Not exactly. There is a law that if you were driving without insurance you cannot recover what are called non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering. And if you did not have a license, you may not have had insurance either.

But, even if that is the case, you can still get economic... View More

You can't sue your employer, as you can only file a worker's compensation claim as to your employer. You can go after the caterer, though you do have to prove they were the ones responsible.

Assuming this happened in Oregon, Oregon law provides that you can't get the damage component which is known as pain and suffering. You can absolutely still sue for actual monetary damages which would be medical bills past and future, and property damages. The problem that this law creates... View More

You can always sue, but as an attorney, I would not want to take that sort of case to trial. The fact that you question whose fault it was based on you starting the argument is exactly what the jury would struggle with. My best guess is that even if you win, the jury would award like a $1.

Yes, your family can still continue the lawsuit. Basically the estate is substituted in for the person you sued.

It depends on the injuries. If the injuries are soft tissue, it can be.

There probably is, but it would be time consuming to find those few who do. That said, you do not need an Oregon attorney, you need an AZ one that does wrongful death. Just do a Google search for wrongful death attorney in the closest bigger city and then make some calls.

First of all, the opinion of a police officer is not a medical opinion. I suggest you go and get seen by someone who is also covered by your personal medical insurance so that your visit is covered either way. Your medical provider will bill your car insurance for the PIP coverage if you put... View More

If the other side knows about it, of course it will effect it. For one thing (DUII is not my area of practice) if one is convicted of DUII (which includes drugs and includes riding a bicycle) in an accident, you cannot recover anything in that accident for non-economic damages, i.e. pain and...

You are getting the run around because you don't have an Attorney representing you. Yes, absolutely your have the right to turn in the middle turn lane and other drivers can only use that lane to start and finish turns, not for direct travel. That's why the guy got the ticket. But... View More
