Adam Brittle

Owner / Founder

About Adam

A dam, a well-respected lawyer and personal injury advocate, grew up in Portland, Oregon. After completing his electrical engineering degree at the University of Colorado at Boulder, Adam worked as an electrical engineer for six years at Intel Corporation in Hillsboro, Oregon. However, his passion for social justice and the law led him to pursue a degree in law from Northwestern School of Law at Lewis and Clark College while still working full-time.

In 2004, Adam left Intel and officially made the switch from engineering to law, accepting a clerking job at the prestigious Portland firm of Swanson, Thomas, and Coon. He then joined the public defender's office of Multnomah Defenders in Portland and went on to co-found West Valley Law Group PC in Corvallis, Oregon, where he honed his skills in criminal defense and civil litigation, including personal injury.

Nine years later, Adam relocated to Portland and became the managing partner of Brittle & Brittle P.C., a family law firm that became one of the city's most recognizable. Adam's expertise in stalking and restraining order cases led to a successful argument and win before the Oregon Supreme Court in 2014.

Now, with a wealth of experience and a passion for helping those injured, Adam has returned to his roots in personal injury law. In his free time, Adam is an avid runner and triathlete, and enjoys spending time with his two daughters. He is also deeply committed to politics and social justice.
