Dedicated to Helping Injured Workers

SHELLEY K. EDLING

Attorney at Law

Although we all hope work injuries will not befall our friends, family, or acquaintances, sometimes they do.  In such cases, experienced legal representation may be needed.  I have been handling workers’ compensation cases since 1980.  In 1994 I opened my law office in Hillsboro, Oregon for the sole purpose of providing quality assistance to Oregon’s injured workers. 

I was born in Hood River, Oregon, and graduated from Wahtonka High School in The Dalles, Oregon.  I attended Oregon State University, Utah State University, and Universidad de las Americas in Mexico, and received both my Batchelor of Science and Doctor of Jurisprudence from Brigham Young University.  Admittance to the Oregon State

Bar was in April of 1980, and for the first 14 years of my legal career I represented insurance companies and large self-insured employers with an emphasis primarily on workers’ compensation matters.  I became a partner in the Portland law firm of Roberts, Reinisch, Mackenzie, Healey and Wilson.

In addition to teaching classes on workers’ compensation to other attorneys as part of their continuing legal education requirements;

I have served in various capacities on Oregon State Bar committees; and, am currently a member of the Executive Committee of the Workers’ Compensation Section of the Oregon State Bar.

I am pleased to put my many years of experience to use representing injured workers in our area.  I look forward to meeting you, or your referral.
