Our Portland team’s defense achievements on product liability matters, including in automotive, heavy equipment, toxic tort, and medical exposures, have earned them a national profile.
Additional notable practice areas include pharmaceuticals and medical devices, environmental and toxic tort, employment law, transportation, and a wide range of commercial litigation. Team members here also have in-depth backgrounds in insurance defense matters, as well as criminal investigation.
