Law Firm
Welcome To The
Corson & Johnson Law Firm
We Appreciate You Visiting Our Website.
We are dedicated to representing people who have been hurt, both to help them have better lives, and to help protect others from having the same thing happen to them.
Representing people who need to make a personal injury claim is very personal work. The attorneys at Corson & Johnson come from different backgrounds, but are united in their commitment to helping others and helping make our community safer. You can learn more about us on the Meet Our Team, and about some of our additional interests at Community Support. You can learn more about some of the people we have helped and their cases on our Case Results page.
Our offices are located in downtown Eugene, a short walk from state and federal courthouses. We invite you to take a virtual tour of our offices. If you would like to know more about us, please feel free to browse this website, or call, email, or text us. We would be happy to talk with you.

How can we help you?
Why choose us?
Choosing the right attorney is an important decision. We would be honored if you consider us. Some things you may want to think about include:
Experience
There is no substitute for experience. We have decades of experience representing people who have survived injuries and families of those who have not. A personal injury case is too important to be just part of the mix of a law firm’s practice.
Proven Trial Results
Attorneys at The Corson & Johnson Law Firm have decades of successful trial experience, which is recognized by such professional organizations as The American College of Trial Lawyers and The American Board of Trial Advocates, as well as by companies such as SuperLawyers and Martindale-Hubbel.
Legal Knowledge
Attorneys at The Corson & Johnson Law Firm have helped to write some of the Oregon Rules of Civil Procedure and work hard to keep current with legal developments. They have published legal articles and presented on law and trial topics to other attorneys at seminars, conferences, and conventions.
Personal Service
We prefer to represent a relatively small number of people at a time, to get to know each of them individually, and to work on each person’s case as intensively as needed. Each person we represent has at least several people working on their case.
Free Initial Consultation
One of the reasons to have a free initial consultation is to see if the chemistry is right. Injury cases are extremely personal. You will talk about things with your attorney that you might not have told anyone else. Some cases take a long time, and therefore your relationship with your attorney might last for years.
Client Reviews
We value the privacy and confidentiality of all our clients. When our client wishes to share their story or leave us a review we are always very pleased and love sharing them on our website and social media channels.

What is “Tort Law”?
The US Constitution was written in part “to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice . . . .”
Tort law is the part of civil justice that enforces safety rules and helps survivors who were wrongfully harmed. Their rights to a civil jury trial are protected by the Seventh Amendment. As the Oregon Supreme Court has explained, preventing future harm is “quite important in the field of torts. The courts are concerned not only with compensation of the victim, but with admonition of the wrongdoer.”
Safety rules and principles don’t do much good if they just gather dust.
Tort cases are not just about compensation, but about making sure that substandard policies are changed, good policies and practices are followed, and defective products are made safe. The fact that Oregon juries can enforce safety rules in any civil case promotes a society where most of the safety rules are followed most of the time. As a result, we and our families are safer.
When juries can hold wrongdoers accountable it discourages unsafe behavior that could hurt others. Every tort case has this helpful effect. But some cases go further to create positive safety change. Sometimes a corporation continues to do it “the way we always have done it,” even when times have changed. Sometimes an industry writes standards to benefit itself, not the safety of the public. Sometimes a corporation’s cost-benefit analysis favors its benefits over the cost to others. Sometimes standards need to be changed to keep up, but the need for that is not recognized until the facts come to light in a lawsuit.
In a lawsuit, people can be required to testify under oath, subpoenas can be issued to find hidden documents, and light can be shined on dark corners that need a good cleaning.

It was all fun and games at our recent firm retreat!
Here's a fun picture of our team bonding over a spirited game of Pictionary!
Moments like these remind us of the importance of teamwork, communication, and having a great time together. Our annual retreat was a great blend of relaxation and strengthening the bonds that make us a close-knit family here at the Corson & Johnson Law Firm.
Thank you to all of our wonderful staff for making this retreat such a great time!

One of our posts about older people driving with impairments resulted in mixed responses.
It’s a difficult subject to even talk about.
The Journal of the American Medical Association recently published a study finding that more than 60% of older adults with cognitive impairments are still driving, despite many of their caregivers reporting safety concerns.
The medical article noted that “conversations about retiring from driving can be challenging because they touch on sensitive areas such as loss of autonomy and changes in caregiving burden.”
The Alzheimer’s Association publishes a “plan early for driving retirement." It suggests:
1) Plan to discuss how retirement from driving will be handled before it becomes an issue.
2) Be sympathetic as you discuss the topic because the topic of stopping driving and the perceived loss of independence can be difficult.
3) Visit Dementia and Driving for helpful information and tools created with support from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration ---> ecs.page.link/Uv4Wn
4) Keep a written record of your observations, to use with the person living with dementia, family members, and health care professionals.

I quit driving because of my Glacoma.
I don't drive anymore. I can always get someone to take me where I need to go.
Our Dad still drive at 90 years old.
I gave up my license when I found out I had macular degeneration (how ever you spell it)10 yrs ago and my eyes are stabilized but I am thankful I didn't keep driving and took chances of killing or maiming someone
On this solemn day, we pause to remember the tragic events of September 11, 2001.
We honor the lives lost, the bravery of first responders, and the resilience of our nation.
Let us never forget the strength and unity that emerged from adversity. In times of hardship, we come together as a community and as a country.
Together, we stand strong, resilient, and committed to a better, more peaceful world.
Never forget.

September is National Preparedness Month!
While we're naturally focused on wildfires, other disasters also happen: earthquakes, tsunamis, and floods come to mind. All remind us of the importance of being ready for the unexpected.
Here are some tips to help you and your loved ones stay safe:
1) Stock up at home on non-perishable food, water, flashlights, and batteries, and have a "go bag" of essentials if you need to leave home quickly.
2) Have a clear plan for family communication and evacuation routes in case of a disaster. Establish a meeting place if you lose communication.
3) Sign up for emergency alerts and keep a battery-powered radio for updates.
4) Try to have your home and belongings adequately insured for disasters.
5) Rehearse emergency procedures with your family.
Being prepared can make all the difference during a disaster.
It may not be a matter of "if" but "when." Stay safe and ready!
