David Smith was so wonderful to work with. I was involved in a car accident (not my fault) and my insurance was not willing to give me the settlement I believed that I deserved. Mr. Smith not only answered all of my questions, but he took the time to lay out all of my options, and explained them all in a way that my non-legal-brain could understand. He was patient, kind, and worked really hard to get me the settlement that I deserved. At every step of the process, I felt that Mr. Smith was working with my best interest at heart, and his candor and solid work ethics made the entire process much smoother. I wish I had hired him sooner! I would recommend David Smith over and over again.

He did an excellent job of making sure I understood every step of the process and swiftly got the result I was needing. I would highly recommend David.

Adam Reeds was a blessing to my family! My husband hurt his back on the job and it changed our lives...SAIF Corporation tried to limit any kind of help and compensation for my husband, even though he has worked hard doing underground construction most of his life paying into workmans compensation...Adam treated us like family and he was able to get the maximum amount of compensation out of SAIF! Not only did he help my husband get compensation, he has continued to help him with authorizations for medications, surgeries and so fourth! Adam is an amazing attorney as well as excellent human being!

David Briggs was one of our Lawyers for the Carriage Works Ikonic manufacturing law suits. We won the case because of the hard work that went into our law suit. My son Rick Mosley and ex Sales Manager Dan Dawson stole our hard drive with all drawings and customers names on it for use to start their own competing company in the small town of Klamath Falls. The crooks were taken to court before a judge and Carriage Works won the case. The hard work they did was amazing and I would tell anyone looking for the best law firm to make sure to contact them first. President Carriage Works

My son died unexpectedly leaving a large, complicated estate in Oregon. I live in Washington state. I needed an Oregon estate lawyer. A lawyer contact recommended Jennifer, commenting that she was a retired probate judge who still got called back to duty when emergencies arose. Jennifer was warm and friendly without ever being less than professional. She outlined the steps that would be necessary to close the estate. She made sure I understood what legal requirements I would have to meet to fulfill the duties of executor. She told me that if I was willing to do a lot of the It tracking and securing of estate assets it would save a lot of money in lawyer and CPA fees. She warned that it could take many months to close the estate as there was no will. It has taken over one and a half years. Jennifer efficiently handled all legal matters. She coached me through tracking down and securing the estate's numerous assets which were scattered across multiple companies. She recommended an excellent CPA firm to handle the financial issues. Whenever I was frustrated by the lengthy red tape, she encouraged me with praise for my efforts to cut through it. To save me from unnecessary travel, she and the CPA firm handled as much as possible by email, fax, telephone and U.S mail. The other heir also appreciated the easy to understand way she communicated when he needed to sign documents. I am forever grateful to Jennifer for guiding me through this ordeal.

I purchased a used motor home and was promised it was in perfect working condition. It broke down the next day due to numerous mechanical problems. I was also told that is had been gone over by the mechanics and was told no repairs were necessary. Even though I knew it was used motor home, Adam Hanson was able to prove to the Judge that I was mislead and there was misrepresentation of the sales person and thankfully, I was able to return the motor home and get a full refund. This was an very unusual case, and thankfully, I had the right attorney that did a lot of work before the court date and won the case.

I am owner of Carriage Works a family owned company in Klamath Falls Oregon. My son and Sales manager decided to come in late one night and steal from us our internal hard drive with all customers and clients from 40 years in business. The reason was greed they hit us when my husband was sick and under going chemo for his cancer. I had meetings with local attorneys in Klamath Falls but was not impressed. My son in law sent me a article about a case Randy had done like ours so I called him and set up a meeting. Impressed and so happy we picked them they were quick to go after the crooks and get justice for us. In court my daughter said Mom where did you find a team like them! Our Dream Team I called them as they made the crooks squirm on the stand. Randy was on the edge of his seat during trial not missing anything and then had the evidence to back it up.

Attorney Travis Dickey. From our first phone conversation and throughout the yearlong court battle, Travis listened to what I had to say, addressed my concerns, and provided clear and accurate information. Travis quickly earned my trust and respect by providing me with straight, direct answers and counsel. At no time did he attempt to “dance” around the difficult answers. I knew where I stood with him, and with the courts, at all times. Prior to our first court appearance, Travis explored what options I had and made sure I understood the pros and cons of each option. He worked to mitigate the circumstances surrounding my arrest, achieving a promising outcome. When the prosecuting attorneys rescinded their first offer, Travis continued to fight in my behalf. Initially Travis had no experience with the mental trauma and injuries I had sustained during my active duty military service. Acting on his own initiative, he took the time to learn more about the difficulties faced by disabled veterans and participated in the initial forming of a Veterans Court being established in Marion County. As my court proceedings approached the year mark and became a tangled web of bureaucratic red tape, Travis continued to provide me with support even though I had developed a less than favorable opinion, which I shared often and loudly, of the Salem City judicial system. Travis remained at the front of my case alert to any favorable change or circumstance he could use to my advantage. His tenacity paid off. Travis brought back the original offer from the city prosecutors’ office and convinced the judge to except a newly available program providing a solution more applicable to my circumstances. I would strongly recommend Travis Dickey for anybody looking for an attorney who is honest, straight forward, and dedicated to working with an eye focused solely on the best outcome for the situation at hand. Specifically, I would direct any veteran finding themselves at odds with the criminal justice system to trust Travis to ensure they receive the best legal counsel available.

One of the two best intellectual property attorneys I've been associated with in my 50 years of business experience. Michelle pleaded our case concerning a trademark that was deemed by the trademark officer to be too similar in definition as to be an infringement. She convinced the reviewing officer that we would not be infringing and consequently we received our registered mark for the product. In another instance she negotiated a co-existance agreement that could have cost us the trademark of our flagship product and, even convinced the other party to pay most of our legal expense.

Alison and Avery at Hecht & Norman provided the best service. Everyone on staff was kind, respectful, and they respond to all communication very quickly. They always made us feel welcome and answered all our question to our understanding. From the start, both Alison and Avery were very knowledgeable with all Immigration laws and kept us informed every step of the way. I was very appreciative of their time and how they made us feel as though we were more than just another case, we were family. When we received our interview date I can't tell you how AWESOME Allison and Avery were for preparing our entire packet. They made our trip much easier and less stressful by organizing everything, it was remarkable. After being in Ciudad Juarez and talking to others going through the same process and hearing about their Lawyer services made me feel even more grateful for Allison and Avery because not only were they a phone call away, their organization, communication, knowledge, and expertise outshines everyone else. If anyone needs an immigration Lawyer I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Allison Sundby! If I could rate then 20 stars I would!
