Portland's Dedicated Bicycle and Injury Advocate

Michael A. Colbach, Attorney At Law, PC is a renowned personal injury law firm located in the historic Alphabet District of Northwest Portland.

Unlike high-volume firms where you might be handed off to a junior associate, Michael Colbach personally handles his cases, bringing over 20 years of trial experience to the table. He understands that an accident is not just a legal event-it is a life-changing trauma that requires compassion, aggressive representation, and a deep understanding of Oregon's traffic laws.

Specialized Injury Representation

While Michael Colbach is famous for his work with cyclists, his practice covers the full spectrum of personal injury law. He has recovered millions of dollars for clients injured in various types of accidents.

• Bicycle Accidents: As a daily cyclist himself, Michael understands the dangers riders face from negligent drivers, doorings, and road hazards. He is passionate about holding drivers accountable for endangering vulnerable road users.
• Motor Vehicle Accidents: From rear-end collisions on I-5 to intersection crashes in downtown, Michael navigates the complexities of insurance claims to ensure your medical bills and lost wages are covered. 🚗
• Motorcycle Accidents: Motorcyclists often face bias from insurance adjusters. Michael fights to prove liability and secure compensation for the often severe injuries riders sustain.
• Pedestrian Injuries: We advocate for walkers who have been struck in crosswalks or by distracted drivers, ensuring they receive the support they need for recovery.
• Dog Bites: We help victims of dog attacks recover damages for their physical injuries and emotional trauma under Oregon's strict liability statutes.

A Fighter in Your Corner

Michael Colbach is known for his no-nonsense approach to insurance companies. He prepares every case as if it were going to trial, a strategy that often forces insurers to offer fair settlements rather than face him in court. 💪 His firm operates on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no attorney fees unless you win. This commitment to access to justice ensures that financial barriers never prevent an injured person from seeking top-tier legal counsel.
