I was involved in a motorcycle accident late last year, and had some injuries as a result. Michael and team helped me through the whole process, and dealt with all the different insurance companies and medical providers. The team is outstanding, kind and stellar at communication. It was truly wonderful to have Mike & team by our side during one of the most stressful times.

I am an experienced Portland motorcycle accident lawyer with proven results.

I offer one-on-one service, and I limit my case load so that I can focus on you and your motorcycle case.

I am an experienced and aggressive Oregon trial lawyer.

  • 140 Jury Trials
  • 30 Years of Courtroom Experience

I am not afraid to take your case to trial if that is what it takes to maximize the amount of money you recover for your motorcycle accident.

Lawsuits can be expensive, in every case I advance all costs associated with pursuing your claim, I do not ask you for a penny until we recover from the other side.


I recently used Mike and his team due to a motorcycle accident that I was injured in. [...] Without Mike at the helm of this incident there is no way I would have been fairly treated. He's very objective and clear with what the possible outcomes could be. I knew what to expect down to each and every detail.

Before you hire a Portland motorcycle accident attorney, make sure they are qualified.

95% of Oregon motorcycle accident lawyers rarely, if ever, go to trial. Without the threat of a lawyer who is willing to go to trial and seek a big jury verdict, why would an insurance company pay you what your claim is really worth. Before you hire a motorcycle accident attorney, ask them how many cases they have tried to a jury and what there results have been.

Oregon motorcycle accident attorneys do not charge the same amount, it can make a big difference.


His fee was less than any other, and I received MORE than any other attorney would have gotten me. You will not get a "speedy" settlement for a few dollars like other law offices do.... You will get the MAXIMUM amount possible in a timely manner that he will tell you up front. Thank you Mike for getting so much more than I thought possible!!!

Insurance companies rarely offer you a fair amount for your injuries without a lawyer. For example:

  • In one case the insurance company originally blamed my client and would not even fix his motorcycle. I filed a lawsuit and a month before trial they offered $2 million and said they would never pay a penny more. After picking a jury and presenting witnesses, they nearly tripled their offer and the case settled.

  • In a case where an injured client was blamed for the accident and offered a bit less than $100,000. In 2024 a jury awarded client over $4 million.

  • In another case where my client was offered $4,000 before he hired me. At trial a jury awarded client $550,000.


Two years ago, as I was riding my motorcycle, on my year long journey from Chile to Canada, I got very badly injured. After over 35,000 miles, my journey was abruptly interrupted, as a distracted truck driver failed to yield and cut the road a few meters ahead of me.

Hire an Oregon motorcycle attorney who rides.

I have ridden street, track, motocross, and off road motorcycles.

I have ridden thousands of miles on my street motorcycle and know the dangers that motorcyclists face every time they get on a bike.

In my experience, most motorcycle riders are very safe and cautious, as our life is on the line if we are not. Insurance companies often try to blame motorcyclists just because we are on two wheels. I work very hard on all of my motorcycle cases, as I know it could have been me that went down.
