Liability Overview

Liability Considerations in Portland

Oregon has a 2-year statute of limitations for medical malpractice (ORS § 12.110) with minor tolling until age 5 or 5 years from injury, whichever is later. Oregon does not cap medical malpractice damages, making it a favorable jurisdiction for catastrophic birth injury cases. OHSU Doernbecher Children's Hospital is the primary academic referral center for complex neonatal cases in the Pacific Northwest and is affiliated with Oregon Health & Science University — one of the leading academic medical centers in the region.
