PORTLAND, OR / ACCESS Newswire / January 9, 2026 / Bridge City Law, a Portland-based personal injury firm with multiple metro-area locations, is emphasizing a client-centered approach to legal advocacy that focuses on fairness, access to information, and community involvement alongside legal outcomes.

Founded on the belief that justice and fairness begin with how clients are treated, the firm aims to ensure injured individuals feel informed, respected, and supported, whether or not they ultimately choose to hire an attorney. Firm leaders say the approach is intended to counter a legal and insurance system that can feel confusing and overwhelming during recovery.

"Even a strong settlement can fall short if a client doesn't feel heard or respected," said Jim Dwyer, founder of Bridge City Law. "Justice and fairness start with the attorney."
While the firm handles personal injury cases, it also provides practical legal guidance and educational resources for people navigating accidents and insurance claims on their own.
"There are many people who don't want or need an attorney," Dwyer said. "That doesn't mean they don't need clear, honest information. We're here to help, even if someone never becomes a client."

Bridge City Law serves both English- and Spanish-speaking clients, with Spanish-speaking attorneys and staff available to assist individuals throughout the legal process. The firm says providing accessible, culturally competent legal support is essential to ensuring clients fully understand their options.

The firm describes its role as reducing legal and insurance-related stress so injured individuals can focus on recovery. Client reviews frequently cite communication, responsiveness, and respect as defining aspects of the firm's work.

Beyond client services, Bridge City Law maintains an active presence in the Portland community. The firm organizes quarterly volunteer projects and supports local organizations through service and fundraising efforts, including William Temple House, Ronald McDonald House, The Commons Law Center, and Kaleidoscope Community Psychotherapy.

The firm also recently established the Bridge City Law Scholarship at Portland State University to support students in the Business Innovation Department."Our success isn't measured only by outcomes," Dwyer said. "It's measured by how we show up for our clients and our community."
