About Keith
Biography
I set out to become a lawyer because I wanted to get the tools I needed to help folks who have no legal education and no power in the legal system. I am passionate about the rights of injured workers. I have worked myself to the forefront of the fight for their rights in Salem, and in hearings throughout the State of Oregon. My practice focuses almost exclusively on workplace injuries, and I am happy to provide you with a free, no pressure, consultation so that you can understand your rights.

Gets results, 'nough said.
Not only is Keith effective, he's patient as well. I've been terrible about keeping in touch, between a bizarre work schedule and family members in & out of the hospital. Mr. Semple has kept me in the loop even when I failed on my end. Most recently he informed me the insurance company we've b...
Keith Semple's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have come to know Keith in both professional contexts and outside the office. Keith is precisely the kind of lawyer that reflects best on our profession: (1) genuinely committed to stewarding his gifts / talents to improve the lot of his clients; (2) personable; and (3) exceptionally competent in worker's compensation law. One thing many people do not know about Keith—largely because of his notable humility—is that he is routinely called upon to advise on legal changes being considered at the statewide level. Consumers will not find a more reliable and knowledgeable attorney to represent them in their worker's compensation claim, than Keith. I endorse him without hesitation."
"I have referred a number of clients to Keith for his expertise in WC. He is extremely knowledgeable, easy to work with and has done an exemplary job for the clients I have referred. And he's a really nice guy. I enthusiastically recommend Keith!"
