About Adam
Biography
I provide a unique advantage to my clients. I spent the earlier part of his career as an insurance defense attorney. That experience gives me intimate knowledge of the defense tactics routinely used by insurance companies that I will use to your benefit. This invaluable insight into insurance company thinking and strategy will give you the best possible chance of recovering the compensation you deserve.
I received excellent legal training working for one of Oregon’s most well respected law firms. It became clear to me as my career progressed, however, that I was truly passionate about representing individuals – not insurance companies. It was that passion that led me to found Gamboa Law Firm.
