I recently obtained counsel from David Haskett at this firm. I have to say, I would recommend him highly. He helped me thru a difficult experience and did a fantastic job for me and with wonderful results. He was compassionate, but honest with his advice and listened to me and my needs. I really appreciated that. If you need a great attorney, please call David Haskett.

I had a very serious issue with the courts and I needed someone who could get in front of a judge immediately and have an order ammendee as I didn’t have a case number yet it was very hard to get information and u also had very little resources. Kelly was compassionate kind and thorough and did what he could for me to get the matter resolved in my favor expeditiously. He listens very well and it is clear that he really cares about his clients. Once I talked with him I felt much more calm and assured and when we went to court things went as well as I believe they possibly could have. I also have severe ADHD and was very stressed when I was speaking with him and he was very kind and understanding with like my quirks and interruptions while being able to keep my on point and related the information I needed effectively to me in that state. I cannot recommend Kelly Monaghan enough. He is obviously extremely sharp about the law and will fight hard for his clients but he also is just a very good human overall! Thanks Kelly!

Ryan Scott is an absolute legend. I called him because he was recommended by a friend and gave him everything I had. He took it upon himself to contact the right people and figure out what my options are, all before discussing giving him a dime. Truly a man who cares about justice and doing the right thing. I can’t recommend him enough.

Young people don't always make the best decisions. Jared went above and beyond, and then beyond again for my son. Jared was able to gain the trust of my son within the first meeting. In the end we had the best outcome possible. We are very please with the work that Jared did for us, and we will be referring everyone we know who needs the service to him. If you want a good lawyer who will fight for you, answer all your crazy questions, and actually care about the outcome, then Jared is your guy! We highly recommend him!

Susan Ford helped me prepare for a small claims case (where I represented my company) for a customer that sued us for nearly $5,000. Before hiring Susan I had checked with two other lawyers but I did not feel confident. Susan helped with both the mediation and the final court hearing. With her knowledge in my brain, I was able to make a clear and coherent explanation of events. The judge decided the case in my favor. I recommend Res Nova for anyone dealing with business issues in Oregon.

When my nephew was arrested and charged with a criminal offense and thrown in jail, our family was in shock. He was there as a tourist on his own, while I am in NYC the rest of the family overseas, and he made a mistake based on cultural differences and without bad intentions. We were scared and lost as to what to do and had to find a great lawyer. A friend of a friend gave us 3 names, and we called all 3, but ONLY ONE called back promptly on the Sunday - and that was Michael Levine (the remaining calls trickled in during the week). We were so lucky because over the next month he proved to be not only a competent lawyer but also responsive, communicative, friendly, and to my nephew he provided real emotional support to guide him and calm him throughout the month. The case was successfully dismissed and that was based on his legal work and filings, but I heard stories from my nephew about how in the courthouse Michael was friendly and polite to everyone, and he sensed that the people who worked there knew and liked Michael and were kind and cooperative in return. Michael was also very fair with the price, and in fact his initial quote was very modest so soon after we started we offered to pay him a higher fee just because we could see he was doing more work than anyone anticipated. And so all in all I'd say BIG THANKS to Michael and we would warmly recommended.

Three years after my case Mike continues to be a source of support and advice as I work to get my life back on track. I initially chose to work with Mike because he showed a sense of caring that I didn't see in other lawyers and my initial instincts were correct. He's a good man and a very good lawyer.

I can’t recommend Robert high enough if you are in a tough spot. Very easy to talk to. Always got back to me in a timely manner. Helped me the whole way through my case. This was all new to me and the best thing is Robert talked to me like a person and didn’t talk down to me. My family really liked that about him. Very professional and I would not hesitate to hire him if you need help.

I am so happy Robert handled my case, he is professional and well-spoken. To say this was a very important and traumatic case for me is an understatement, Robert kept me updated and always answered any questions I might have had. During my court date, he showed up overly prepared which showed me just how much he cared about my case. I would highly recommend Robert’s services to anyone wanting to feel like they matter throughout the entire process.

Being counseled by John was an amazing legal experience. He showed his proficiency in my case like a true professional . Very smart individual. He’s excellent at letting you know exactly what’s on the table. I was not very knowledgeable about court lingos/etiquettes. John made sure to make everything clear. I was comfortable right from the beginning to the end of my case. Thanks John and Gina. You guys are awesome.

Many thanks to John Kolego for his expertise and care in a case involving my nephew. He did exactly what he told us he would do, and was able to get the outcome he had projected. His years of experience and thorough understanding of the law guided my family through a very difficult situation. What I found most helpful was the time he gave us to answer all of our questions. He was with us every step of the way. Thank you John.

My son found himself in a terrible situation that neither he nor I ever imagined he would be in. It was devastating, and we didn’t know the best way to proceed. A friend highly recommended John, and hiring him was the absolute right thing to do. He advised, counselled and supported us through the entire court process. What I, as a mother, really appreciated was that if I called John with a question or concern he always took my call. He was quite clear about his boundaries and client confidentiality, while being supportive. John kept my son out of prison, which of course is the ultimate goal, but even if the verdict had been different I know John worked diligently for my son. I am now the friend who will highly recommend John in the future.
Thank you John.

I was referred to Hugh by a former prosecutor as well as a former judge, as one of the best in the business. Hugh was clear in expectations and open in providing perspective. His experience and knowledge eased the process and he was nimble as the case evolved. Hugh kept me up to speed and did everything within his purview to get the desired result. In the end Hugh worked with me on every level and exceeded my expectations in all regards.

David Terry was hired by my boyfriend for a criminal negligent homicide case. My boyfriend was expected to go to jail for 30 days, which was part of the plea deal made with the DA. My boyfriend ended up not having to go to jail at all. David is very intelligent, he knows the court room and law like the back of his hand. He is friendly, out going and very funny.

Eleven months ago, we found ourselves in the middle of an absolute nightmare when our son was falsely accused of a crime that he did not commit; he was the victim. David Terry walked us through every step of the legal process, he communicated extensively with us, and he advocated for our son every step of the way. We cannot say enough good things about the way that he represented our son. David was available days, nights, and weekends, and he fully supported taking a family/team approach to the case. His extensive experience, effective strategies, vast knowledge of the law, and relentless commitment to the truth, gave us the positive outcome that we desired for our son. We highly recommend David Terry to anyone who really needs someone to listen to them, and to fight for justice on their behalf. We will be forever grateful for the compassionate nature that was shown to our family by both David, and his caring staff, during one of the most challenging times of our lives; he is worth every single penny.

I worked with Shannon on a sticky landlord issue in the last month. She coached me through it until the end, and helped to ensure that my rights were upheld--as well as going above and beyond to make sure that my issue was resolved.
Although I never wish a landlord issue on any friends or family, if something does happen, Shannon will be the first person that I would refer them to. I highly recommend her.

Shannon helped us with a landlord tenant dispute. She was extremely knowledgeable and timely with her responses. During this sometimes stressful situation she was always professional. She gave accurate information and guided us through the process. We were very glad to have her on our side. She was referred to us by a fellow attorney who had worked with my mother. Thanks Shannon.

When my previous attorney refused to finish the job he was paid for, I was referred to Seifman & Pond. It was a blessing. Jeff is a classy character, extremely knowledgable and was professional throughout the entire painful process. He answered all my calls and emails promptly, unlike other attorneys! He also got the job done and done right! If you want quality and performance at a reasonable price I recommend calling Siefman & Pond.

I hired Jeff Siefman to represent me on a domestic dispute that led to my arrest in October. Jeff was very upfront and informative when I came to him about a no contact order that was placed that neither myself or significant other asked for. Jeff had the no contact order lifted within in 3 days and had my case dropped to a violation with no jail time and minimal fines and he gauranteed this level of commitment throughout the entirety of my case. I must say that he produces results. He is very proactive and was quick to respond to all my questions and concerns. I would recommend Jeff to anyone who finds themselves confused and in need of an upfront and dedicated lawyer. Again, Thank you Jeff!!!

Attorney David Lesh is a top notch attorney that will give you peace of mind while working strategically to deliver unmatched outcome. Retain him for your case and you will never regret it. Best in town!!!

I was arrested for a duii while visiting Portland Oregon. I called his office the day I was released from booking. He called me th hat night. Attorney Lesh explained everything to me in a way that was so easy to understand and he gave me all the time I needed to let it all sink in. He was so nice and didnt get frustrated when I asked him to repeat his explanations (sometime more than two or three times). Since I'm from Massachusetts he was able to get the judge to allow me to return home while waiting for mg court date. He even was able to reschedule my date to a week I was returning to Portland. Once in court he advised me and was able to get me into the diversion program which when completed would get my case dismissed. He was even able to get th he judge to allow me to complete the program in Massachusetts. I would highly recommend David to anyone needing representation. He is down to earth and very approachable. He is always available via phone or email and he always returns calls if he is unable to talk at the time. I dont want to say how much he charged me, but I spoke to 4 others before selecting him. His cost was very very reasonable and I feel I received as good or better service than any of the BIG FIRMS... I hope I never need his services again but if I ever get into trouble again I would not hesitate to call his office. Please give him a call... you wont be disappointed!!!

Without Westbrook I would be sitting in prison tonight. I have worked with her for over a year on my case and when I say that, what I mean is: she has dealt with me for over a year and worked on my case.
Westbrook is the definition of left field, she comes up with stuff out of no where that makes you feel stupid for never thinking of yourself. In my year with her I definitely thought I finally had an idea of what sort of attorney she was and how she operates. NOPE! She suits up for court and it’s as if you hired a whole different woman! There were times in that court room I’d sworn I saw a cape around her. This woman is absolutely amazing and I owe my life to her, if I ever get falsely accused again there is no one else I would ever go to. EVER. If I moved across the country I’d make her get licensed there just to be my defense again.
I gave this poor woman absolute hell for things that had nothing to do with her at times and yet she’d be up until 3am working on my case. She can seem a bit unorthodox but let me assure you there is a method to her madness and you do not want to be the one going against her in a court room because she works in the most unpredictable ways and then suddenly brings it all together and by the time you realize what she did it’s already over. I’m not saying I trust the process, but I do trust her and her process.
You have the choice of who’s about to defend you and based on what you did or in my case what you are falsely accused of doing…. Trust me when I say that Westbrook is best bet I ever put my life on. She’s amazing, she’s the best, she’s going to get you through the nearly impossible,

I was in a bind in Oregon City with an unexpected criminal charge. Westbrook came highly recommended by a top divorce attorney and proved skilled and knowledge on extremely short notice by consulting me on the phone, text, and in person during a last minute hearing. She has a heart to help the underdog while staying cool under pressure (without bias). My unique and challenging legal situation has been a nightmare, but Westbrook’s wisdom and generous spirit while always being willing to assist has truly been a breath of fresh air. If you need a great criminal attorney then can handle complex situations, call Westbrook and tell her “Mansquito!” sent you!

Three years ago I was wrongfully convicted of crimes I did not commit. After winning an appeal I was assigned Westbrook. I was a problem client, I did not wanna wave my sixty day speedy trial rights to give her more time to work on my case all I saw was the thirty months I had been wrongfully imprisoned. Westbrook did her best and actually won my case and got me released from custody. After watching my previous attorney just roll over and show his belly during the first trial, it was refreshing just to see Westbrook fight, veraciously for my rights, to defend me with a tenacity of someone who honestly cares about doing their very best. I would say hands down Westbrook is the best lawyer in Oregon.

When wrongfully sued in a civil case, I really did not know what to do. I contacted 4 different attorneys. The 1st one would not even hear the details about the case unless I paid him up front 1st. The other 3 after hearing the case asked me if I only any real property, ... when hearing no, they said to me, "it's not about your innocence, plead guilty and file bankruptcy."
In a world where money is the bottom line and the common denominator, Roger was the only attorney who really listened to my case and asked pertinent questions and researched before informing me of the various options we had before us. He was the only attorney who seem to at all interested in me as a person and understood how guilt or innocence played and ones overall life. He was the only attorney to inform me of the complete landscape of my case. And took the time to explain to me, in a respectful manner why some of my immediate feelings and ideas for proceeding in the case were not prudent nor valuable in establishing my innocence.
At the end of this exhausting experience and trial, Roger truly rose above and beyond. He not only one my case but exonerated my innocence.
One never plans finding yourself in a heinous lawsuit, if you are looking for an individual who knows the law, will advocate and fight for you, and who will not treat you like a case number, and is not there only to make a buck… Roger Scarborough is the champion you seek.

If you have to hire a lawyer, hire Brian. I would hire him again, but hopefully I won't need to!

If you are facing not one but multiple criminal charges (counts) involving the operation of a motor vehicle which carry the potential consequences of jail time and a big license suspension if convicted, there is good news. You can call Ben.
Prior to facing this type of vexing ordeal, I had never been arrested in my lifetime. My case went all the way past a favorably conducted evidentiary hearing and legal conferences, just shy of having a 6-person jury trial scheduled with the Court over several months (longer than a year)—where Ben tirelessly, diligently, masterfully worked as the lead Attorney on defeating the entire case. All charges are being dismissed!
Let's go from the beginning of this adversarial legal process, where the Office of Administrative Hearings for the DMW was moving to immediately suspend my drivers license within the first ten days of the custodial arrest. After reading a legal notice prepared by Ben and the owner of the law firm which was promptly delivered to the Prosecutor/Police in advance of the DMV suspension hearing, Police elected not to file a police report within the 10-day period required to seek a suspension of my license with the DMV. This procedural issue resulted in an immediate dismissal of the DMV Implied Consent Hearing case. This is the first victory achieved in a very short amount of time after retaining Ben as my lead Attorney on the overall matter.
When you retain Ben as your legal advisor, you also receive the support of the entire team of lawyers at the law firm, including the owner of the law firm himself, Mark who has been in the business for 4 decades.
Why were the overall results of the case so highly favorable like this? The Officer who charged me with the most serious count never actually conducted Field Sobriety Tests to determine if there was PROBABLE CAUSE to reasonably charge me with DUII.
Ben highlighted this major mistake made by the Officer and crafted a plan on how exploit this major flaw to champion a cause for my vindication (legally, constitutionally, and according to statutory sources of case law), so that every advantage to my defense was methodically crafted.
What happened next was at the evidentiary hearing, where Ben cross examined the Officer, up to the point just shy of impeaching the Officer as a witness having all of his credibility drained for his placement of false misleading evidence into a Sworn Affidavit for an unconstitutional Search Warrant.
Ben effectively demonstrated why the Officer did this: BECAUSE HE DID NOT HAVE PROBABLE CAUSE for the highest count and charge of DUII from his own investigation. So, the Officer falsified and fabricated PROBABLE CAUSE by subsequently writing it into a misleading Sworn Affidavit.
How did Ben point this out to the Court? The video evidence from the Police Body Cameras (presented in Court) did NOT match the false misleading fabricated written reported evidence the Officer placed into the misleading Sworn Affidavit.
So yes, not just in Third-World countries can you get FRAMED, It happens like this right here in America practically every night and day.
Did the Officer get fired? Of course not, Oregon has a super liberal jurisdiction here. The Judge, Prosecutor, and Administration for the Police Force all work under the same umbrella and they look out for each other, even when incompetent, dishonest Police Officers do things like Lying in a Sworn Affidavit to fabricate evidence. This is the definition for liberal. Liberal for them, not for the accused.
The Court still wanted to Prosecute the case on all counts, even after the evidentiary hearing! The element of complexity was spiraling. Ben turned this foul ball into a home run!
I'm grateful to have been represented by such a world class law firm. The owner Mark Cogan is one super cool cat, poised. Ben will crush with a velvet hammer making no sound to those doing things such as lying in a Sworn Affidavit.

Bryan is an excellent defense attorney that is very knowledgeable when it comes to felonies/measure 11 crimes. My family retained Bryan for my brother as he was in very difficult situation with a couple of measure 11 charges - because of Bryan's knowledge in the system, he was aggressive where it mattered most and was able to get his sentencing opted out of measure 11 sentencing (7 years in prison or so) to only probation with zero prison time. He has great communication, is straight forward, and really advocated for his client. You can tell he is very passionate about what he does and isn't just in it for the money. We would 100% Bryan again and recommend him to anyone who may need his help!

Mark and his firm handled our case with professionalism and courtesy. We had so many questions and each and every one was answered in a timely and comprehensive manner. The outcome of our case was positive and we would recommend Mark and his associate, Tim Grishkevich, to anyone needing representation.

If you are facing not one but multiple criminal charges (counts) involving the operation of a motor vehicle which carry the potential consequences of jail time and a big license suspension if convicted, there is good news. You can call Ben and Mark.
Prior to facing this type of vexing ordeal, I had never been arrested in my lifetime. My case went all the way past a favorably conducted evidentiary hearing and legal conferences, just shy of having a 6-person jury trial scheduled with the Court over several months (longer than a year)—where Ben and Mark tirelessly, diligently, masterfully worked as the lead Attorney on defeating the entire case. All charges are being dismissed! Thank you.

Jason is a skilled lawyer. He is very professional, responsive, and on top of things. He was always aware of what was going on with my case and moved things along quickly and efficiently. Brenda, his paralegal, is just as good. Jason was up front with me about what to expect and helped me get the best outcome I could have hoped for. I am grateful for his and Brenda's help.

Jason Thompson and his team are the most professional and corteous legal team. At a time in my life when I was struggling, I got in some trouble and was charged with Theft in the second degree. Naturally, I was scared and anxious and was unsure how I was going to deal with the legal process. My friend recommended Thompson Law out of Salem. Even though this was an hour drive from my home, I decided to have a consultation based on the glowing review. I hired Jason on the spot. From our first meeting I could tell I was in capable hands and was never disappointed.
He explained the entire process and every possible scenario to worst case to best. While I was ready to just have the whole thing over with, Jason encouraged me to not give up. He worked tirelessly to get my case dismissed. He even would go to work early to call me with updates or work on a creative solution for my case. He never seemed rushed with any meeting or phone call and never took any of my questions as unimportant. His office was always quick to respond to any question or concern. Jason's hard work and dedication was apparent. Jason was persistant in getting an outcome other than a conviction and he did. He got my case dismissed.
Jason and his team treated me with respect and took my nervousness and dire situation seriously. He was very thoughtful on my case and clear in all his explanations. His legal team is fantastic and Brenda, his paralegal, is the best. She is knowledable, helpful, and kind-hearted. I highly recommend Jason and his team.

We are beyond happy with the our experience with Casey Law. We were treated with kindness, respect and professionalism. The Casey Law team immediately had us feeling less anxious and worried after our consultation. Our legal matter is now over (with the exact results we were hoping for) and we are beyond grateful for Lissa Casey and her team. And while I hope I never have to call them with a legal problem again I would in a heartbeat. And I would suggest you do the same.

I retained Larry in 2017 for an assult 2 case. He didn't properly communicate over the phone, return phone calls or do anything he said he would, he always had an excuse for why he didn't do his job....I served 70 months due to his lack of negotiation skills. He made no effort to get me a better plea deal. I've talked to other attorneys who have told me I should have been convicted of assult 3 and served 2-3 years. Please listen and don't retain him for yourself or your family. I have met many of his clients he represented that had this same experience...fair warning!!! You don't want to serve way more time then necessary.

After reading some of the reviews, and talking to several of his former clients, Justin is a dishonest crook that likes to drive drunk and risk others life's, he is very rude and vulgar to people. If i were other folks i would avoid this crook at all costs.

Ms Mascal was the best attorney I’ve ever seen on the case for my former abusive pastor. The case was regarding girls he molested and members he abused financially, verbal etc. I just can’t say enough about her!! She was sharp, strong, professional… a real bull dog in court. She really cared about everyone involved and it was just so wonderful to have her on our side. Something to behold!

What a Sex Crime Lawyer Can Do for You
A sex crime lawyer specializes in defending individuals accused of sexual offenses, which can include charges such as sexual assault, rape, indecent exposure, child pornography, solicitation, and other related crimes. Being charged with a sex crime carries severe legal and social consequences, including potential imprisonment, mandatory registration as a sex offender, fines, and long-term stigma. A sex crime lawyer has the expertise to navigate the complex legal system, protect your rights, and develop a strategic defense to achieve the best possible outcome for your case.
When Should I Hire a Sex Crime Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a sex crime lawyer immediately if:
- You are under investigation: If law enforcement contacts you for questioning or you become aware that you are a suspect in a sex crime investigation, it's crucial to seek legal representation before speaking with authorities.
- You have been arrested or charged: Promptly hiring a lawyer upon arrest or formal charges allows for early intervention in your case, which can be critical for your defense.
- Searches and seizures have occurred: If your property, such as your home or electronic devices, has been searched or seized in connection with a sex crime investigation, a lawyer can help protect your rights.
- You are facing related legal issues: If you're dealing with restraining orders, custody disputes, or other legal matters stemming from the allegations, a lawyer can provide comprehensive legal support.
What Does a Sex Crime Lawyer Do?
A sex crime lawyer provides a range of legal services to defend and support you throughout the legal process:
- Legal consultation and advice: They will explain the charges against you, outline your rights, and advise you on the best course of action.
- Case investigation: The lawyer will conduct a thorough investigation, gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses, and identifying inconsistencies or weaknesses in the prosecution's case.
- Defense strategy development: They will develop a tailored defense strategy, which may include challenging the credibility of evidence, disputing the legality of how evidence was obtained, or presenting alternative explanations.
- Negotiating with prosecutors: Your lawyer can negotiate plea bargains or reduced charges when appropriate, aiming to minimize potential penalties.
- Court representation: They will represent you in all court proceedings, including hearings, trials, and sentencing, advocating on your behalf.
- Protecting your rights: The lawyer ensures that your constitutional rights are upheld throughout the legal process, including protection against unlawful searches, coerced confessions, or violations of due process.
- Post-trial assistance: If necessary, they can assist with appeals, sentence modifications, or matters related to sex offender registration.
How Are Sex Crime Lawyers Paid?
Sex crime lawyers typically charge for their services in one of the following ways:
- Hourly rate: Charging an hourly fee for the time spent working on your case. Rates can vary widely based on the lawyer's experience and location.
- Flat fee: A set amount that covers specific services or the entirety of your case, which can provide cost predictability.
- Retainer fee: An upfront payment from which the lawyer deducts hourly fees and expenses as they work on your case. You may need to replenish the retainer if it is exhausted.
- Payment plans: Some lawyers offer payment arrangements to make their services more affordable over time.
It's important to discuss payment structures and fees during your initial consultation to understand the financial commitment involved.
How Much Does a Sex Crime Lawyer Cost?

- Hourly rates: Typically range from $200 to $500 or more per hour.
- Flat fees: For less complex cases, flat fees might range from $5,000 to $25,000.
- Total costs: Complex cases involving extensive investigation or a trial can cost $25,000 to $100,000 or more.
