About Jon D.

Jon D. Friedman is an attorney who seeks common-sense solutions for clients from the day they meet through the resolution of their case. When a case cannot be resolved short of filing a lawsuit, he is an experienced litigator licensed to pursue results in both State and Federal Court.

Born and raised in Portland, Oregon, Jon graduated from Willamette University with a Bachelor of Arts in Politics. Before attending Lewis & Clark Law School, he worked in Oregon and federal politics and for an after-school non-profit organization serving underserved communities.

Jon works alongside his father, Jon M. Friedman, who has practiced personal injury law in Oregon since 1984. Together they operate as a father-son team, giving clients direct access to their attorney throughout the life of a case rather than passing files between case managers.

In his free time, Jon enjoys spending time with his family and rooting for the Portland Trail Blazers, Chicago White Sox, and Chicago Bears.

Why Personal Injury Law

Jon’s work in politics and with an after-school non-profit serving underserved communities showed him how much a person’s circumstances can be changed by having someone advocate for them.

That experience shaped his approach to personal injury law: meeting clients where they are, explaining their options in plain terms, and staying involved from the first conversation through resolution.

What He Does Differently

Jon focuses on getting results and working collaboratively as opposed to taking an adversarial approach for its own sake. When a fair resolution can be reached without litigation, he pursues it; when it can’t, he is prepared to litigate the case in state or federal court.

Practice Focus

Jon represents individuals and families across Portland and throughout Oregon in:

The firm does not handle workers’ compensation claims. Jon practices primarily in the Portland metro area.
