About Orendorff & Associates
Orendorff & Associates is a personal injury and disability claims firm based on Bellevue Avenue in Sudbury, practising in Greater Sudbury for more than 30 years. The firm's practice is restricted to assisting injured people and their families with personal injury and disability claims, and its four lawyers, Thomas Orendorff, Michael A. Gauthier, James M. Ross, and R.W. Howard Lightle, are supported by senior litigation administrator Carol Lachapelle, who has been with the firm for more than 25 years. Thomas Orendorff was called to the bar in 1979 and has practised personal injury law for over 35 years.
The firm handles motor vehicle accidents and collisions, slip and fall injuries, brain and spinal injuries, broken bones, dog bites, concussions, bicycle accidents, wrongful death claims, and disability claims, along with less common matters such as boating and ATV or snowmobile accidents. It works on a contingency fee basis, so clients pay no legal fees unless the firm wins the case or negotiates a settlement, and offers a free initial consultation. Service is available in French, the office is wheelchair accessible, and the firm can arrange to meet clients at home or in hospital when travelling to the office isn't possible.
