Areas of Law

Areas of Law Description

The Law Office of Dane E. Johnson, LLC provides legal representation on the following areas of law:

- Personal Injury

After an accident, it can be difficult to know what to do. If you have been hurt or a loved one has been the victim of fatal or life-threatening injuries, the prospect of dealing with legal questions on top of everything else may seem overwhelming. Insurance companies take advantage of the period of confusion and vulnerability that often follows accidents, offering to resolve claims quickly for amounts that may ultimately leave victims with little, if any, real compensation for losses and harms.

- Car Accidents

We will fight to represent those harmed in Oregon auto accident, bicycle accident, or pedestrian collision cases. Our Portland personal injury law office is selective in the cases we handle, allowing us to give each client personal attention and devote the time needed to build a solid case. We are prepared to litigate each case to verdict in order to obtain the maximum amount of damages recoverable. We will do everything legally possible to secure full and fair compensation for our clients’ injuries, including medical bills, lost wages and future income, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.

- Catastrophic Injury

Traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury are two of the most challenging medical conditions that anyone can face. They may arise from falls, car accidents, assaults, or negligent medical treatment. They may occur on the job, forcing the injured person through a workers compensation system that has little concern for the complex medical questions involved.

- Medical Malpractice

Attorney Dane Johnson believes strongly in protecting the rights of individuals who suffer serious losses because of mistakes by the medical system. We will consider cases involving: misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose; anesthesiological mistakes; improper prescription or administration of medications; improper use of medical devices; defective medical devices; failure to obtain informed consent; failure to order diagnostic tests or consult specialists; failure to monitor; post-operative infection; incorrect treatment; and other medical mistakes that cause significant harms.

- Products Liability

Dangerous and defective products can cause property damage, serious personal injuries, or wrongful death. Those who purchase such products, as well as those who use them, have the right to recover compensation. Products liability law makes manufacturers and merchants accountable when dangerous products or product defects harm or kill. Portland, Oregon personal injury lawyer and products liability attorney Dane Johnson is committed to recovering compensation for the injured and pushing defective and dangerous products off the market. If you or a loved one has suffered serious personal injury after using any type of product, such as an automobile, ATV, bicycle, prescription drug, medical device, tool, or toy, the Law Office of Dane E. Johnson can help.

- Employment Discrimination

Because people may lack a conscious awareness of their discriminatory attitudes, however, discrimination may affect many aspects of the employment relationship subtly, including recruitment, hiring, promotion, wages, benefits, work assignments, performance evaluations, training, transfer, leave, discipline, layoffs, or discharge. Even if employers are well aware of their biases, they may conceal them, making proof that unlawful actions were taken because of discrimination hard to obtain. Oregon employment lawyer Dane E. Johnson is committed to pursuing justice aggressively for employees subjected to unlawful employment practices because of discrimination. The Law Office of Dane E. Johnson represents employees only.

- Dangerous Premises Injury

Injuries caused by dangerous conditions on someone else’s Oregon property may be the basis for a slip and fall or premises liability case. Portland accident attorney Dane Johnson believes that building owners and landlords should be held responsible for failing to correct faulty stairwells, slippery floors, dim lighting, missing guardrails, or inadequate security.

- Workers’ Compensation

Employees injured on the job or harmed by occupational diseases are entitled to benefits no matter who was at fault, but these benefits generally come at the cost of the right to sue the employer for negligence or wrongful conduct. As an Oregon workers’ compensation law firm representing injured workers, we strive to present the strongest possible on-the-job injury or occupational disease claim. We also work to make the complex administrative system of Oregon workers’ comp law understandable to people hurt while doing their jobs.

- Dog Bites

Under Oregon law, a dog owner who knows or should know that his or her dog has “dangerous propensities abnormal to its class,” is subject to liability for harm done by the dog. Liability applies even if the dog owner uses the utmost care to prevent the dog from doing the harm. If the dog owner does not know or have reason to know that the dog is abnormally dangerous, he or she is subject to liability for harm done by the dog if, but only if, he intentionally causes the dog to do the harm, or (b) he is negligent in failing to prevent the harm.

- Animal Law

We combine our plaintiffs' personal injury practice with an animal law practice for all animal-related legal issues, including custody disputes, veterinary malpractice, landlord/tenant matters, civil rights, contract disputes, and negligence resulting in injury to animals. We can also assist in setting up a companion animal or pet trust to provide care for animals after their guardians can no longer do so.
