I practice consumer bankruptcy law.

I am writing this page for my future clients, and potential clients that meet with me or speak to me and decide not to file bankruptcy or go in another route.

I believe it’s important to listen to my clients’ concerns and tailor my services to their needs. I am the only attorney at my firm, but my experience and knowledge of the law stacks up well against big firms.

About 80% of my practice is helping wronged consumers recover from businesses that have cheated them. The rest is a mix of end-of-life and estate planning for elders, wage and hour claims for employees, and advising or serving nonprofits as outside counsel or in providing nonprofit boards with training to avoid problems. I don't stray outside those basic areas much -- for example, I don't take personal injury cases, car crashes, or any family or criminal law cases. But if the problem is otherwise within Oregon civil law, I'm happy to be consulted and to help out...

Sadly, among the many reputable businesses who pride themselves on treating everyone fairly, there are a few others, who often try to take advantage of their customers and even their employees at every opportunity. Many lawyers...
