This is my second case with Yunus and crew. Both times I had a great experience. They were great in educating me on the process and keeping me up to date on the case. In the end, alhamdulillah, all worked out well and we won both cases to my satisfaction. Also, great snacks each time I come in.

After determining that the only viable option for us in a dispute with our neighbor, was hiring an attorney, we found Mr. Hammond thru search engines and reviews. Our choice to go with Mr. Hammond fit our situation well. Mr. Hammond had a very calming and reassuring presence, that helped greatly with navigating us through this process. He was honest with what to expect and came up with some very creative and resourceful options for us to consider. His knowledge and understanding was greatly appreciated. We would have him represent us again, if needed. S. Schroeder, Oregon

I highly recommend Ramsey Chamie at NWCL for any business law needs! Ramsey was instrumental in guiding us through the complexities of forming our new company and acquiring an existing business. His expertise and attention to detail were invaluable. He is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. Ramsey takes the time to clearly explain complex legal matters and patiently answered all of our questions throughout the entire process. We felt confident and supported every step of the way.

I worked with Andrew Harris for the sale of my business. It was clear he had my best interests in mind during our introduction call. He took the time to ask questions and answer mine. Throughout the process Andy was attentive, a great communicator, met all deadlines, and made me feel completely confident in ensuring that I closed my chapter with my business successfully. I would recommend him to any business owner (big or small) who wants legal support. Thank you Andy!!

I cannot recommend NWCL enough. When I decided to start my small business I wanted to find a local attorney (support small business!). I did a lot of research and kept coming back to NWCL. Their reviews were solid and something just felt right. I scheduled a consultation with Ramsey Chamie and within about 5 minutes of talking to him, I knew I found my guy. The process of starting and buying a small business can be a stressful, scary, and overwhelming task. Having an attorney who is calm, confident, funny, humble, intelligent, kind, knowledgable, well spoken and just an overall good person makes all the difference in the world. Ramsey went above and beyond any and all expectations I had for this process and for what an attorney is. I really don't know how I would have navigated this experience without him. I know who I will be using for any future business transactions. I've had the pleasure of speaking with Josh Sauter, their marketing director, a few times and while our conversations were brief, he was just a happy positive guy that gave nothing but good vibes. I have not had a chance to meet the other 2 attorneys at NWCL, but I can only assume after my experiences with Ramsey, if you go with any of them, you will be in good hands. 10/10

I’ve spoken with so many lawyers, and got so misguided. Mr James and his wisdom in his history put my extremely complicated situation into perspective. To continue to fight the legal battle is choosing to suffer, and a minimum of $25,000 to gamble and lose again, and again. He helped me understand the system better than anyone.

I had been been in car accident where the driver was under insured and I had to make claim against my uninsured motorist coverage. My insurance company started jerking me around with unnecessary treatments and less than recommended treatments that were not helping me until my pip coverage ran out then tried to deny my claim all together. That is when I obtained the services of Mr. Clay MacCaslin. He took over and helped me navigate my way through doctors appointments, depositions and taking my insurance company to court. I could not of asked for a better outcome and got my maximum amount I was entitled to for my coverage and now I can get my medical bills paid with a little in my pocket. it has been a long hard road and I am very happy with the results and I would recommend to anyone the services of Clay MacCaslin.

Gavin Bruce, what to say… He is really just the best. It’s like an as seen on TV lawyer but he BACKS IT UP. I really can’t rave enough about Gavin— or GB as I call him. He keeps it professional but knows how to knock back a Costco pizza if the time comes. This lawyer really puts the GAVE in gavel. He also volunteers his time as a local mock trial coach and orphan saver. The kids cannot say enough good about him, I’ve heard they make fun of his bald head (the one drawback) but he takes it in good faith, just like his practice. Right now he is a federal prosecutor or as his convicted call him “satan spawn” but he only puts away the bad guys. If he ever comes out of retirement and starts his own practice let me tell you, he is the big man with a big plan.

Let me tell you one thing, if there was an option for 7-star I would've picked it. I’m incredibly grateful to have had Jonathan Corey by my side during my divorce—a process that was far more complex and emotionally draining than I ever anticipated. From day one, Jonathan’s communication was clear, consistent, and compassionate. He patiently explained every step of the legal journey, answered my (many) questions without hesitation, and kept me grounded when the stakes felt overwhelming. My situation involved defending against unfounded allegations across multiple fronts, including interactions with DHS and the civil court system. Jonathan’s attention to detail was remarkable. He meticulously reviewed every document, flagged inconsistencies in the opposing side’s claims, and built a strategy that prioritized facts over drama. What impressed me most was his calm, steady professionalism. Even when the process dragged on longer than expected, Jonathan never rushed or cut corners. He reassured me that patience would allow the truth to surface—and he was right. Jonathan’s ability to balance assertiveness with respect for the process made all the difference. He never resorted to unnecessary conflict, but he also never backed down from defending my rights. His updates were frequent and straightforward, and he always made sure I understood my options without sugarcoating the challenges. What truly sets Jonathan apart, though, is his integrity. He treated my case with the care and urgency of someone fighting for a close friend, not just a client. By the end, his dedication paid off: the falsehoods were exposed, and I could finally move forward with peace of mind. If you’re facing a high-conflict divorce or legal battle, I can’t recommend Jonathan Corey enough. He’s the kind of attorney who fights tirelessly for fairness while staying grounded in what’s ethical and real. Thank you, Jonathan, for turning a nightmare into a resolution that protected my rights—and my sanity. You’re a rare find in this field.

Jonathan Corey was a great divorce lawyer to have on my side. I went through a tough divorce, was dealing with a large marital estate and a long term marriage. I was really worried about all of the complexities of our estate dealing with real estate, stocks, retirement accounts, precious metals, etc., not to mention children and all of the other things that have to be dealt with. Jonathon was a great communicator and dug into understand all aspects of the divorce. He was a real advocate for me and really helped me get the best case scenario for my situation. He was also very responsive and had amazing professionalism throughout the entire process. If you want someone that is on your side, cares about what happens to you and your children and gets you the best possible representation with the best possible outcome you don't need to look any further. Thank you Jonathan and the Corey Law Group!

I had a disappointing and expensive experience with Mr. Sollars. He frequently ignored my communications yet charged me for emails and calls that reminded him of tasks that weren't addressed or completed for extended periods of time. He often appeared stretched too thin and indecisive. Despite the ongoing reminders, there were long periods where no action was taken, yet he continued to bill. Overall, very little was accomplished, and I ended up with significant legal fees without the results I expected. He also advised some things that harmed my case. I would recommend looking elsewhere for legal representation. Now that my case is over, I’ll move on, but will be paying the financial and real life costs for a long time.

Yadira Ramirez is an excellent attorney. I was blindsided by false sexual assault allegations. Yadira was always calm, cool and collected. I felt she had my best intentions. She had a lot of patience when I got angry or upset because I didn't understand how the courts work, or how lawyers communicate with the courts, and also the laws. I felt more at ease once when she thoroughly explained how court proceedings take place. Although, I could not ever be fully at ease because of the implications in my case. We had evidence that showed my innocence. But even with that, I still felt anxiety because of how inconsistent the courts in America are. Yadira could have told me that I had a airtight case and that we were going to win in court. But she was honest and said that courts are unpredictable and that she can't guarantee a victory. Which I understand. But she also said that we do have good evidence and that would show favorably for me in court. Court was set for a Friday, and on Monday my accuser decided she wanted a consent agreement. I did not know what that was, and Yadira thoroughly explained what it was. The first draft of the consent agreement their attorney sent Yadira was bogus and unfair. Yadira told me to stand firm and not accept the terms. Yadira redlined the document an added language in my favor. Their side sent back another agreement, and Yadira once again said to stand my ground and not accept it... So finally 2 days before we're supposed to go to court. My accuser and her attorney caved and gave in to our terms and a much more favorable consent agreement, which ended up in a dismissal of my accuser's restraining order against me... I was extremely anxious and nervous the entire time, 3 months of absolute hell. Yadira gave me my life back and restored a little faith in the legal system. There are lawyers out there that 100% care about their clients and Yadira is absolutely one that cares. I recommend Yadira for any legal matters regarding restraining orders. Thank you Yadira

Thomas Ybarra is a highly organized and knowledgeable attorney and I'm so grateful for his attention to detail when it came to my divorce proceedings. He was always honest with me about what to expect and also heard me when I told him what I wanted/needed. He was able to successfully argue my position for sole custody of my two children, secure me spousal support and child support, and negotiate an agreement that allowed me to keep my house. His attention to my case was constant and I could always get ahold of him when I needed advice. I highly recommend Mr. Ybarra's counsel if you are looking for representation in a divorce or child custody case. He knows the law and is able to explain how the process works. He made my very volatile divorce bearable and having him in my corner was a complete godsend. No one truly wins in divorce, but in my case he got me a big win on paper. Grateful for his representation.

Thanks to the amazing team I now have my green card, it took less than a year, everyone’s case is different so timeline will differ. Everyone here truly is amazing, they work with you and help you throughout the process and any questions you may have they are quick to respond. I was referred by a friend because they had nothing but positive feedback and I can also say I had a very positive experience. It’s worth calling and seeing if they can help you. All the legal advice and information they provide is helpful. Thank you again.

Jeffery Gonzalez Gonzalez has the been the lawyer I knew I could trust with all my immigration needs, I highly recommend anybody with Daca to DO advanced parole with this office, Just as mentioned my lawyer made the whole process easy and fast made it even more convincing for me to apply and proceed. Right after traveling with Advanced Parole my husband petitioned for my resindency and it only took 6 months thanks to that Advanced parole. Please don’t hesitate to do Advanced parole.

If you are considering hiring Travis Mayor to represent you, do NOT hesitate! After two different attorneys told me there was no way to pursue a larger settlement than the measley one I was offered, Travis told me his plan to seek appropriate compensation for a colliision that took me months to recover from. And he delivered. The entire process with his firm was delightful - from his amazing team to his personal phone calls keeping me updated. I could not have asked for a better experience.

I tried to talk to Nik a few times about a legal issue I've been going through with my employer. On top of this, I was wanting to discuss just my rights in general as an employee and other things. I had emailed Nik a couple times and he didn't respond but I was determined to have ONE lawyer in Portland talk to me as a trans person. I paid Nik $100 ahead of time and wrote up the intake form with info all about what I was dealing with and other issues I was seeing in the trans community. I wanted help and to get what info I could out of a one hour session to help as many people as I could. Nik refused to help because I hadn't met a criteria but he also didn't read or acknowledge any of the details or questions I added to the intake form. He just offered to refund me and did. I just wanted help. I dont want to grieve more friends because of shitty employers. I did get fired while on leave. I also got threatened with a 10 page psychotic letter calling me uncivil. This work ordeal put me into an IOP due to a suicidal ideation in June and I can't get anyone but my spouse to care. That's why the suicide rate is 41% for trans people. I don't wanna add to that but when it feels like you have people who specifically represent LGBT clients they'd show some empathy for them. Idk. It doesn't matter. I don't recommend Nik.

I consulted Jason over the period of two days while I was in the process of settling my personal injury claim for a car accident. Even from my brief dealing with him, it is clear to me he is a knowledgeable and compassionate attorney who takes excellent care of his clients. Most attorneys wouldn't even speak to me because my claim was not large enough to warrant their attention. Jason not only listened patiently and without interrupting, he took the time to answer all of my questions thoroughly. Though he was clearly very busy, he never once made me feel marginalized or rushed. He even gave me feedback on the injury demand letter I'd written! I would recommend him without hesitation.

I am very fortunate to have been referred to Jason Posner after having been involved in a motor vehicle collision as a bicyclist by a well-respected law firm in Portland. Jason did a wonderful job guiding me through all the legal choices in how to settle my personal injury insurance claims settlement by carefully listening to my wishes and providing expert opinion and advisement. This allowed me to focus on the healing I needed and not having to worry if I was being well represented. Jason has all the great qualities that I could have hoped for; he is a super caring and compassionate person with great integrity and as a legal representative did an outstanding job, thoroughly handling all phases of the claims process, navigating between the multiple insurers and policies resulting in a settlement that I could not have gotten on my own. Given my very positive experience with Posner law firm I unequivocally recommend hiring Jason as a very skillful Personal Injury Lawyer – you will be glad you did too!

My husband and I hired Jason after my husband was in a bad car accident. Jason was fantastic through the long process of getting my husband the proper compensation for his current and future losses, he was educated and seemed to genuinely have my husbands and my best interest at heart. He was always more than willing to answer any and all questions and he made sure that we understood what was happening throughout the case. He was willing to make any necessary accommodations to help ease my husbands discomfort and he would also check in to see how my husband was doing. Throughout the process of the lawsuit Jason was always professional and polite and kept us informed of what was going on with the case. He was always quick to respond to any phone calls or e-mails that either my husband or I sent him. Overall he did a wonderful job and eased a lot of the stress of the lawsuit. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs an attorney in this area of law.

Before we met Richard, we had nothing in order -- a very very outdated will (somewhere) that didn't reflect a single aspect of our current life, kids, home, investment property, business etc. After meeting Richard, we have peace of mind! We have a living trust, will, designated guardian for our daughter, person to make medical decisions if we can't, signed docs giving us power to make medical decisions for each other, on and on. We have an enormous binder with all these documents including extremely detailed and helpful information for our next of kin and executor, should something happen to us. Richard and his team make this very straight forward and easy. They kept stressing that we can call any time with questions (no charge) and in 3 years we'll sit for a review of it all (free).

Dan Sharp was my attorney through a year long, complicated case of fraud; I could not have asked for a better attorney. He was highly professional and well versed in dealing with a myriad of complicating factors. When there were difficult twists and turns, he never failed to discuss with his partner if it was necessary, ensuring that no stone was left unturned. Documents were reviewed very promptly and his recommendations were sent to me immediately with a request for feedback. His communication with me was exemplary, usually occurring on the same day as the event. At one point he went way out of his way to contact me internationally so that I wouldn't be surprised when I returned. If you are lucky enough to have Dan represent your case, you can be assured that the best possible outcome will be achieved!

I had an issue with my landlord regarding the term of my lease- landlord insisted it was for 1 year fixed term, I thought I had signed a month to month agreement. They said I would be responsible for the remaining rent of the lease, over $5k. After reading some great reviews about Dan, I reached out and he responded within an hour. He got me in for a consultation the next day where he looked over my contact and let me know I had a great chance of getting out of the lease without having to pay any penalty. He suggested that a letter to the landlord detailing why I am not responsible for the confusion or the remaining rent payments would be the best course of action. Through further research, he was also able to determine some particular factors in my situation that have me leverage and alluded to those in the letter. He even put in a demand for reimbursement of my legal fees! The landlord called me back the next day and apologized saying that they would sign the mutual release he drafted and the matter was finished within just a few days! Start to finish, Dan was extremely professional. He followed up promptly, laid out his fees clearly, and even credited the consultation cost toward that of writing the letter. His pricing was extremely reasonable, but I won't end up paying for it because Dan had the savvy to pass it off to my landlord! I cannot recommend Dan highly enough if you are in a tough legal situation- especially in a tenant/landlord disagreement.

What a Business Lawyer Can Do for You

A business lawyer provides critical legal guidance and support to entrepreneurs, startups, and established businesses. Whether you are forming a new company, drafting contracts, or navigating complex regulations, a business attorney ensures you are legally protected and operating within the law. They can also help prevent legal disputes or represent you in negotiations, transactions, or lawsuits that arise during the course of business operations.

Business lawyers have expertise in areas such as business formation, contract law, intellectual property, employment law, mergers and acquisitions, and corporate governance. They ensure that your business is compliant with relevant laws and help mitigate risks that could threaten your company's success.

When Should I Hire a Business Lawyer?

Hiring a business lawyer is essential at various stages of business development, including:

  • Forming a business: When deciding on the best structure for your company (LLC, corporation, partnership, etc.), a lawyer can guide you through the registration and compliance process.
  • Drafting contracts: If you need contracts for employees, partners, suppliers, or clients, a lawyer ensures these documents are legally sound and in your best interest.
  • Mergers, acquisitions, or dissolutions: If you are buying, selling, or dissolving a company, legal counsel is critical to avoid costly mistakes.
  • Compliance and regulatory issues: A lawyer can help navigate complex regulations, particularly in industries like healthcare, finance, or tech.
  • Resolving disputes: Whether it's contract disagreements, intellectual property infringement, or employment issues, a business lawyer helps mediate, negotiate, or litigate on your behalf.

What Does a Business Lawyer Do?

Business lawyers provide a wide range of services that cater to different legal needs of a business. They can:

  • Help you choose the best legal structure for your business.
  • Draft, review, and negotiate contracts with employees, suppliers, customers, or business partners.
  • Ensure regulatory compliance with local, state, and federal laws.
  • Advise on tax strategies to minimize your business's tax burden.
  • Assist with intellectual property protection, such as trademarks, patents, and copyrights.
  • Handle mergers, acquisitions, and business sales, ensuring all legal paperwork is in order.
  • Resolve disputes through negotiation, arbitration, or litigation.

How Are Business Lawyers Paid?

Business lawyers typically charge either by the hour or on a flat-fee basis, depending on the complexity of the work. Common payment structures include:

  • Hourly rates: The lawyer charges based on the time spent working on your case. Rates vary depending on the lawyer's experience and location.
  • Flat fees: For certain tasks, such as incorporating a business or drafting a standard contract, a lawyer may offer a flat fee.
  • Retainer: Some businesses may hire a lawyer on retainer, paying a fixed amount each month to have ongoing access to legal services.

The payment structure is often discussed during an initial consultation so you can choose the one that best suits your business needs and budget.

How Much Does a Business Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a business lawyer depends on factors such as:

  • The complexity of the legal issue: More complex matters, like mergers or intellectual property disputes, typically cost more than routine tasks like contract drafting.
  • The lawyer's experience and location: More experienced lawyers or those in larger cities often charge higher fees.
  • The nature of the billing arrangement: Hourly rates can range from $150 to $1,000 or more, depending on the lawyer's expertise. Flat fees are usually available for simpler matters like forming an LLC or drafting a standard contract.

It's essential to discuss fee structures upfront to avoid surprises.

Top Questions to Ask a Business Lawyer

Before hiring a business lawyer, ask the following questions during your consultation:

  1. What is your experience with businesses like mine?
    Find out if the lawyer has handled legal issues for companies in your industry.
  2. What services do you offer?
    Ensure the lawyer can meet all your business's legal needs, from contract drafting to dispute resolution.
  3. What are your fees, and how do you bill?
    Get clarity on how you'll be charged - whether by the hour, flat fee, or retainer.
  4. How do you handle conflicts of interest?
    Ask how the lawyer ensures there is no conflict in representing your business.
  5. Can you provide references from other business clients?
    Speaking with past clients will give you an idea of the lawyer's expertise and professionalism.
  6. Do you have experience in my specific industry?
    Industry-specific knowledge can be crucial, especially in highly regulated fields like healthcare or finance.

How to Check the Credibility of a Business Lawyer

To ensure you're hiring a reputable business lawyer:

  • Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is in good standing and has no disciplinary actions against them.
  • Look for client reviews or testimonials: Online reviews, testimonials, or word of mouth from other business owners can provide insight into the lawyer's reliability and effectiveness.
  • Ask for references: A credible lawyer should have satisfied clients who can vouch for their services.
  • Check professional memberships: Membership in respected legal organizations (such as the American Bar Association or a local business lawyer association) can signal credibility.
  • Review their website and professional profile: A well-established lawyer typically has a professional website showcasing their areas of expertise, credentials, and case success.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most out of your first consultation with a business lawyer, prepare the following:

  • A description of your business and its structure: This will help the lawyer understand your legal needs.
  • Any current contracts or agreements: If you're seeking contract advice, bring copies of existing contracts.
  • A list of legal issues or concerns: Be ready to discuss any potential legal challenges, such as regulatory compliance, disputes, or transactions.
  • Financial documents: If applicable, bring financial records related to the legal matter you're seeking help with.
  • Questions about fees and billing: Ensure you understand the lawyer’s payment structure and fees upfront.

By preparing these materials, you can ensure that your first meeting with a business lawyer is productive and informative.
