Tort Lawyer

A tort is a civil wrong brought forth by a person, entity, or business against another party. There are many types of torts, so if you believe you have grounds for a legal claim, it’s important to find a tort law attorney who specializes in areas related to your case. At OlsenDaines, we provide legal representation for individuals in negligence tort cases in the greater Portland area.

If you or someone you know has been injured and is planning to file a tort claim, contact OlsenDaines. We have law offices throughout Oregon and Washington and offer free tort law consultations.

Negligence Tort Claim Attorneys

With many tort cases, there’s some overlap between civil and criminal law. For example, a person might commit a crime and injure someone. As a result, they may be subject to both criminal and civil penalties. Tort law is a civil action that is separate from criminal law.

Whereas criminal law aims to dole out appropriate punishment for wrongdoing, the goal of tort law is to help the victim by providing a civil resolution in the courts. Often, but not always, this comes in the form of a monetary judgment or settlement.

Also, keep in mind that physical damage isn’t the only type of damage that results from a tort. Victims can suffer emotional damage as well, which can involve their reputation, peace of mind, and loss of privacy. If you suffer damages in any of these areas, you may consider pursuing a resolution through tort law.

Types of Tort Cases We Handle

As we said before, tort law is a huge area of civil law, and it’s important to find a tort law attorney who specializes in the areas most significant to your case. At OlsenDaines, we have extensive experience representing clients filing negligence tort claims in the following areas:
