Like much of Portland, the Northwest District in Portland, OR has roots in maritime history. In the 1850s, a sea captain claimed the Northwest District as his farm. Over the years, it was subdivided and developed into an industrial suburb and a middle-class community.
The neighborhood was connected to the rest of the city via the streetcar. Then, the invention of the car encouraged more people to build houses and settle in the Northwest District. By the mid-1930s, the status of the neighborhood declined. In the 1970s, a social revitalization occurred.
Today, the Northwest District is home to trendy restaurants and shops, as well as historic homes. Many residents enjoy attractions like the International Rose Test Garden at Washington Park, the Oregon Zoo, and Pittock Mansion.

Tillmann Law Personal Injury Lawyers is proud to handle many different types of personal injury cases. We have several primary practice areas that serve our Northwest District clients’ needs.
Car accidents are the most common type of personal injury cases. We help our clients investigate the crash, file insurance claims, and negotiate a settlement. This relieves our clients from the headache of the insurance process. We’ll also file a lawsuit if we can’t reach a fair settlement.
Construction accidents happen throughout the Northwest District and can cause serious injuries. We know how to negotiate with construction companies and help workers and bystanders who get caught up in the danger of construction.
Motorcycle accidents can be deadly and result in catastrophic injuries. Even worse, most of our motorcycle accident clients are blamed for the collision. We help motorcyclists recover compensation and insulate them from misplaced blame after a crash.
Slip and fall cases are a form of premises liability. Property owners (including businesses) have a responsibility to keep their premises safe for visitors and guests. If you were hurt on someone else’s property because of a negligent condition, we can help you recover damages.
Truck accident cases require an experienced lawyer who understands the differences between truck and car accidents. We help victims of truck accidents determine the cause of the crash and hold trucking companies responsible.
Wrongful death cases are the most heartbreaking of all personal injury cases. We are sensitive to families who have lost a loved one. We work diligently to get them compensation while also preventing a legal case that drags on unnecessarily.
There are several different types of damages available for injured victims in Oregon. In Northwest District personal injury cases, you can recover compensation for financial and non-financial losses.
Financial losses are called economic damages and often include:
Non-financial losses are called non-economic damages. This type of loss is usually physical, emotional, or psychological. Non-financial injuries can be just as life-altering as financial losses.
This includes:
You will need to prove your damages to recover them. This may include keeping receipts, bills, and financial records. It may also include calling witnesses who can testify about your emotional well-being before and after the accident.
A lawyer can help you calculate the total value of your case before entering negotiations.
Personal injury attorneys in Multnomah County charge a contingency fee. A contingency fee is an arrangement where a lawyer takes a percentage of the final settlement or jury award. The percentage is agreed upon before hiring the lawyer.
This means you don’t need to pay your lawyer by the hour or based on the amount of work that is completed. Instead, you will render payment at the end of the case, depending on how much money you get. The lawyer usually takes their fee from the settlement before distributing the remainder to you.
It also means that if your lawyer loses the case, you don’t have to pay them anything.
In Oregon personal injury cases, you usually have two years from the date of the injury or accident to file a lawsuit. This is the most important deadline in your case because if you miss it, you lose your legal right to seek compensation. By hiring a lawyer early in your case, you can ensure that you don’t risk going beyond the statute of limitations.
