What D’Amore Law Group does

D'Amore Law Group is a Pacific Northwest personal injury and mass-tort law firm founded in 1992 by Tom D'Amore and headquartered in Lake Oswego, Oregon. The firm represents individuals and public entities in personal injury matters including motor vehicle and trucking accidents, wrongful death, and large-scale litigation such as the opioid matter that produced a $239 million settlement for nine Oregon counties. It has recovered more than $325 million across 2,000-plus cases, including the highest trucking verdict in Oregon history at $26.4 million.

The firm operates on a contingency-fee model, meaning client fees are tied to case outcomes with no upfront cost to the plaintiff. It maintains a multi-state practice through bar admissions in Oregon, Washington, and California, supported by five office locations in Oregon and Washington. The attorney bench is small (approximately 7 attorneys) and is supplemented by support staff; recent additions include Anna Brunkenhoefer (April 2024) and Matt D'Amore (January 2025), suggesting active partner and associate buildout.

The business is founder-owned with no disclosed external equity or PE participation. Premium positioning is reinforced by third-party recognition including Chambers USA Band 1 and Lawdragon 500 designations. Revenue is driven by a small number of large case outcomes (verdicts and settlements), creating concentration at the matter level rather than the customer level; unit economics scale with case value rather than volume.
