Auto & Car Accidents

Oregon automobile accidents (including tractor/trailer and truck collisions) are on the rise and are too often responsible for injuries and deaths. Paulson Coletti is experienced in handling all aspects of these serious injury cases. Fatal and serious injuries from automobile these collisions in Oregon often require hiring experts including reconstructionists, investigators, vocational rehabilitationists or life care planners. To prove the case to a jury or in a settlement conference, detailed medical illustrations and other forms of demonstrative evidence are often used to explain the collision and the injuries. Our firm is always prepared to try cases for our clients.

Trucking/Big Rig or Semi Truck Accidents

Each year thousands of motorists and big rig drivers are killed and maimed by the negligent operation of big rigs by their drivers and by trucking companies. Semi-truck drivers and the companies they work for have a duty to operate their vehicles in a safe and responsible manner. Unsafe driving, oversized loads and various other treacherous practices put the public and the truck operators in danger.

To protect your legal rights following severe injury or wrongful death resulting from a trucking accident, big rig crash or auto accident, it is wise to immediately consult an experienced personal injury law firm. Within the first week, important physical evidence can be lost, and witnesses may forget important details.

Paulson Coletti has extensive experience handling claims involving trucking accidents. We offer Free Initial Consultations with no obligation for you to hire our firm.

Wrongful Death and Other Personal Injury

Under Oregon law bicycle riders are also subject to the same traffic laws as motorists. If you are riding a bicycle, you are also required to obey the traffic laws and you deserve the same protection by those laws as automobile drivers.

Other types of negligence, such as product liability, defective products and negligent manufacturing or assembly, can also cause bicycle accidents and injuries.
Our firm rides bicycles and represents bicyclists that have been wronged on the roadway or by a defective product.

IF YOU OR A LOVED ONE HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED BY THE FAULT OR NEGLIGENCE OF ANOTHER, YOU NEED COMPETENT LEGAL COUNSEL TO ASSIST YOU IN GETTING JUST COMPENSATION FOR YOUR CLAIM.

Nursing Home Abuse

Not all types of elder abuse are physical and not all abuse results in visible injuries. The types of abuse and neglect that have been reported in nursing homes range from moderate to severe and include sexual abuse, neglect, abandonment, extortion, psychological and emotional abuse and physical abuse. There are signs and indications of abuse that families should watch for such as any injury that cannot be promptly explained, bedsores, unusual bruises, sexually transmitted disease, out of the ordinary financial requests and sudden changes in attitude or appetite. While these signs do not always mean there is nursing home abuse or neglect present, they are indicators to watch for.

Nursing home abuse in Oregon and across the nation is growing at an alarming rate. If you suspect elder abuse or neglect by a nursing home in Oregon, report it immediately to the Attorney Generals office at (503) 229-5576 and then contact an experienced Oregon nursing home abuse attorney for advice on your situation.
