OREGON PERSONAL INJURY VERDICT RESEARCH

Research every Oregon personal injury jury verdict since January 1, 2014.

SORTABLE DATA ON PAST OREGON PERSONAL INJURY VERDICTS

This page contains a sortable listing of all personal injury verdicts in Oregon since January 1, 2014. Some counties implemented Oregon's electronic filing system later, so the verdicts for those counties may begin in 2015. You can sort the data by case type such as motor vehicle accidents or medical malpractice. You can also sort by county or verdict amount. For instance, you might want to research all bicycle verdicts in Multnomah County with verdicts exceeding $100,000. You can do that here.

WHERE DOES THE INFORMATION COME FROM?

The information contained in this page comes from the pleadings filed by the parties to these lawsuits. It is important to know these are allegations. So, if you see a severe injury alleged and a small verdict, it may mean that the jury either did not believe the injury occurred or did not believe it was caused by the defendant. When the plaintiff alleges more than one injury, we try to indicate the primary and secondary injury. When there are numerous serious injuries, we may classify that as a "polytrauma" case.

WHY DOES VERDICT RESEARCH MATTER? 

Verdict research helps lawyers and clients understand what juries have done in similar cases. Past verdicts cannot predict the future, but they do give us information about the field of possibilities. It is important to understand that no two cases are the same. And even if they were, the results might vary considerably. Many factors can affect a jury verdict including the venue, strength of the liability case, injury severity, and the skill of the lawyers involved. Be cautious about placing too much emphasis on this data.

WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW?

The best way to understand the potential value of an injury case is to contact a skilled personal injury lawyer. The lawyer will want to know the facts of your case, and your injuries. Be careful with lawyers that make promises about results. An experienced personal injury lawyer will know that there is work that needs to be done before they can have an opinion about the potential value of a case.

Primary Injury:
Brain - Traumatic Brain Injury
Secondary Injury:

This lawsuit arose from natural gas explosions that occurred in Northwest Portland, Oregon on October 19, 2016.  On the day of the incident, employees of Defendant Loy Clark Pipeline Co. were doing excavation work at the north corner of NW Glisan Street and NW 23rd Avenue. During the excavation work, they damaged a natural gas line.  Natural gas then began leaking out of that gas line and some of that gas made its way into the basement of a building adjacent to the excavated sidewalk through an underground route and eventually ignited. Defendant admitted that it was negligent in causing the explosions.  Plaintiff, Dr. Scott Shephard, owns and operates a chiropractic clinic, located on the corner of 23rd and Flanders.  At the time of the explosions, Dr. Shephard was inside a room of his chiropractic clinic. He alleged that the explosions caused him injury to his head, inner ear, chest, neck and back, including a brain injury and resulting cognitive damage. He sought $600,000 for past and future medical expenses, lost wages and impaired earnings capacity, and $5,000,000.00 for non-economic damages. Plaintiff also sought $10,000,000.00 for punitive damages.
