With offices conveniently located in Portland, The Fraser Law Firm P.C. represents patients in and around Gresham who were harmed by medical malpractice at Legacy Mount Hood Medical Center, Adventist Health Portland, Kaiser Sunnyside Medical Center, and other hospitals and clinics serving East Multnomah County.
A particular concern for Gresham-area residents is the lack of a nearby dedicated trauma center. Many Gresham-area patients are seriously injured when a medical provider fails to recognize quickly enough that a patient should be transferred to a higher level of care. This delay can lead to life-threatening injuries like a worsening medical condition, permanent disabilities or brain damage, additional complications and prolonged treatment and, in the most severe cases, death.
The Gresham medical malpractice lawyer team at The Fraser Law Firm is dedicated to achieving the best possible results for our clients. We represent Gresham-area patients injured by medical malpractice, including claims involving birth injuries, surgical errors, misdiagnosis and delayed diagnosis, failure to transfer to a higher level of care, and wrongful death.
The Fraser Law Firm represents patients and families in complex medical malpractice claims involving birth injuries, surgical errors, misdiagnosis and delayed diagnosis, hospital and nursing negligence, anesthesia errors, and wrongful death caused by medical negligence.
Examples of medical malpractice claims our Gresham medical malpractice lawyer team handles for clients in the area include:
We also handle medical malpractice claims against Kaiser Sunnyside Medical Center for Kaiser members in and around Gresham.
Our Gresham medical malpractice attorney team has particular expertise in birth injury cases against medical providers at Legacy Mount Hood. We are dedicated to seeking justice for patients and families impacted by birth injuries involving cerebral palsy, brain injury, stroke, broken bones, facial paralysis, brachial plexus, shoulder dystocia, and more.
When you contact The Fraser Law Firm about a medical malpractice claim, we will begin by investigating your medical records, including transfer records and the timeline between when a complication first became apparent and when the transfer was ordered. We work with independent medical experts who understand the standard of care at a community hospital as compared with a trauma center or tertiary care provider. Because many medical malpractice cases involve more than one doctor, nurse, or facility, we identify each and every medical provider who may be responsible and fight to hold them accountable for the harm they caused.
When medical malpractice causes harm, injured patients can recover two types of compensation:
Because Legacy Mount Hood, Adventist Health Portland, and Kaiser Sunnyside are private, non-profit medical providers, there is no cap on economic damages. Multnomah County’s East County Health Center is a public clinic. Claims against public clinics are subject to the Oregon Tort Claims Act, and damage caps apply.
Every situation is unique, and our medical malpractice lawyer team can only provide a realistic sense of your family’s potential compensation after reviewing your case, the specific records, and the providers involved.

A delayed transfer means the medical provider failed to recognize quickly enough that a patient should be transferred to a higher level of care. The delay may be medical malpractice if the care team should have recognized the severity of the problem sooner or acted faster to arrange the transfer, and the delay made your medical condition worse.
The medical malpractice attorney team at The Fraser Law Firm handles medical malpractice claims on a contingency fee, which means you will not pay an attorney fee unless we recover money for you. Your initial consultation is free, confidential, and comes with no obligation.
Compensation in a medical malpractice case includes economic and noneconomic losses. Economic losses include medical bills, out-of-pocket costs, and lost wages. Noneconomic losses refer to intangible harms like pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, and loss of consortium. While every case is unique, a Gresham medical malpractice lawyer can best advise you regarding your potential monetary recovery.
