Family Law

Guardianship
Guardianships and Conservatorships: We assist with all aspects of this often complex process, including preparation of petitions to appoint a guardian or conservator, advising on the placement of protected persons in care facilities, defending or challenging the placement of a person in a facility, and related matters.

Criminal Law

Wrongful Death
Representing both insurers and policyholders allows our attorneys to recognize the facts and issues from any side of an insurance coverage issue. Our lawyers represent insurers proving the scope of intended coverage, as well as individual persons wrongly denied coverage or with unexpected personal exposure beyond their insurance limits. The firm consults or associates with other attorneys who wish to retain the firm’s advice on matters of insurance woven into personal injury and wrongful death claims, professional malpractice problems, contractor liability or construction disputes.

Business and Corporate Law

Corporate Law
Throughout the life of the business cycle, from formation through sale or dissolution, our business and corporate law attorneys provide a comprehensive range of services.
Business Disputes
Hannah received her J.D. from the University of Oregon in 2024. During law school, Hannah was a business law fellow, a tutor for the school’s renowned legal research and writing program, and a law clerk for the Oregon Department of Justice General Counsel division, Health and Human Services section. Hannah also clerked at Luvaas Cobb for a year before joining the team as an attorney.
Business Transactions
On-going General Counsel: Luvaas Cobb can support your business with practical day-to-day business law advice in the areas of tax, contracts, commercial transactions, real estate transactions (including acquisitions and commercial leases) and employment matters.
Limited Liability Companies
Business Succession Planning: We assist in planning the transfer of businesses to succeeding generations and the use of valuation discounts in all their various forms, using limited liability companies, corporations, and trusts of every type.
Construction Contracts
It is our goal to manage our clients’ risk on construction transactions or disputes. Our attorneys assist in drafting, negotiating or terminating construction contracts, design contracts and related documents including the use and knowledge of standard industry forms produced by the American Institute of Architects (AIA) and familiarity with ConsensusDOCS.
Intellectual Property

Employment Law

Wrongful Termination
Employment/Labor Relations: Luvaas Cobb regularly represents private employer and school districts on claims brought by employees alleging wrongful discharge, denial of due process, harassment, and employment discrimination. We provide advise on union contract negotiations, unfair labor practice complaints, and the arbitration and grievances under collective bargaining agreements.
Employment Discrimination
Employment Litigation
Bob’s experience over the years was primarily in the litigation and counseling of product liability, commercial and business litigation, insurance coverage disputes, personal injury, work-site accidents, professional malpractice, employment issues and construction and building defect issues. During the last few years before his entry into semi-retirement, Bob also provided services as a mediator in each of these areas, including for the Oregon Court of Appeals mediation panel.
Sexual Harassment
We represent employers with claims brought by employees alleging wrongful discharge, denial of due process, sexual harassment, retaliation, discrimination, hostile work environment or whistleblowing. We provide advice on union contract negotiations, unfair labor practice complaints and the arbitration of grievances under collective bargaining agreements. Our attorneys can also assist employers facing EEOC, OSHA, BOLI, ADA or ADEA investigation or violation complaints.

Property Law

Real Estate Litigation
Dealing with real estate matters, whether involving residential or commercial property, can be complex. Our attorneys tailor services to a client’s specific needs and budget, offering all or any combination of services.
Premises Liability
School Districts: Attorney Joe B. Richards has represented school districts in Oregon for over 30 years, regularly representing 13 school districts in the Willamette Valley. The firm has obtained successful outcomes in matters involving employee claims, premises liability, failure to provide adequate supervision or instruction, student bullying and harassment, and unconstitutional searches. Luvaas Cobb has also defended claims brought under Title IX, 42 USC Section 1983, Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
Construction Litigation
The drafting and editing of construction documents have the potential to determine the ultimate success of a project. An attorney with experience in the construction industry is essential — construction law is not taught in law school.
Real Estate Transactions
Jessica’s primary practice areas are estate planning, trust and probate administration, real estate transactions, and business matters. She has additional experience helping nonprofit entities obtain tax exempt status and has represented guardians and conservators in protective proceedings.
Easement
Property Damage
Accidents and injuries can result in expensive medical bills, insurance claims, lost income and/or decreased earning capacity, inability to perform activities of daily living, property damage, loss of quality of life and, in some cases, long-term disability, trauma or grief.

Health Law
