Michael A. Colbach Attorney at Law, PC

About us

Why should you hire Michael Colbach for your Portland personal injury attorney? Proven Results.

I can make car insurance companies pay when they do not want to by taking your case to a jury.

Insurance companies do not pay you a fair amount because they want to. They only pay you when they have to. Oftentimes, after I file a lawsuit, Insurance companies significantly increase the offer because they have to weigh the risk of settlement against the risk of a big jury verdict. Most of the time they will not take that risk and end up paying my clients a fair settlement.

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

Three examples:

1. In a case where an injured client was blamed for the accident and offered a bit less than $100,000 and in 2024 a jury awarded client over $4 million.
2. In another case where my client was offered $4,000 before he hired me. At trial a jury awarded client $550,000.
3. In another 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.
