EXTREMELY DON'T RECOMMEND. I don't trust any of positive reviews. UPD 2: This person told me, that we're "hopeless" and "nothing he can do". Very next lawyer completely resolved my problem and found multiple violations in landlord's actions. My believing is that "Portland defender " is either working FOR LANDLORDS to discourage tenants from defending their rights, either not lawyer at all, like paralegal, either not of very good qualification. In my case, all he needed to do to help was calculate simple numbers and read lease, written in English. He failed:)

Troy was very thorough, attentive and patient while helping me through my landlord issues. The outcome was positive and I'll be referring EVERYONE I KNOW that needs this kind of assistance, his way!! Thank you Troy!

Troy and Kashia we're both very helpful in getting me through my sudden eviction trial earlier this week. Since I have little experience dealing with legal matters and it being such short notice, they were able to look over my case that same day and offer me a fool proof memorandum to use for my trial the very next day. The judge ended up ruling in my favor thanks to Troy's expertise and thorough knowledge of tenant/landlord law, as well as his excellent team there at Portland Defender. Thank you so much for your help Troy and Kashia! I highly recommend your firm to all my friends and family!!

Portland Defender, Troy, came recommended from a close friend. And I was glad I picked Troy to defend myself against my landlord. Troy did his due diligence and defended me really well. I would definitely recommend Troy for any tenant law related case.

I connected with Troy via the Community Alliance of Tenants (also amazing) when I rented an apartment through a property mgmt. co. I have not rented in many years and thought going with a property mgmt. company was a safer choice. It became clear within a few months that my new landlord had broken our lease and the utility codes but was talking in circles as I tried earnestly to negotiate a resolution for over 6 months. Within 30 min. of meeting with me, Troy he saw through the stalling tactics of the property mgmt. company, guided me through pushing them to resolution, and ultimately won me a settlement. He was calm, professional, and fair. Highly recommend!

I was in a very bad situation when I met Troy, and he was the voice of reason at this turbulent time. I didn't know that I could get legal help, and not only did he win, but he offered a lot of crucial advice and information to me that I'll be able to use for life. He is a trustworthy and professional person. Definitely remember that it's ok to seek help even if you're not sure if you will get results. He's ethical and will keep your interests at the forefront.

Super nice guy! Quick over the phone consultation was really smooth! Thank you!

I had several issues with bad landlord. Troy took my complaints, researched the latest in landlord-tenant laws, and not only forced the landlord into compliance, but made him write a big check to me for my damages. I recommend Troy, hands down, for all your legal needs.

Helped me with a legal problem I didn't know exactly how to handle

I felt positive about their service until Troy stopped contacting me. Clients should be able to expect timely service without having to check in all the time, if I was going to self-file I wouldn't have called the firm to begin with.

Troy is rad and shows no signs of slowing down his radness. He called us back quickly at a time when nobody else would. We live in a rural area where there are no attorneys for people in our situation. He met with us within hours and left us feeling ready to tackle our issue. Today, due to Troy's legal advice we won our case and will be able to stay in our home for the bitter cold season. Oh also were getting back all the money we paid in legal fees since we won. Troy is worth his weight in gold. If you're unsure if troy is your guy, don't be, you won't regret hiring him today.

We met with Troy with a very unique situation he set us at ease and offered a solution to our problem. We would highly recommend anyone with any landlord or tenant problems to call and make an appointment and meet with Troy. It was a pleasure meeting and talking with him. He listened to our issues and came up with a great solution that both sides were happy with. Troy Thank you for everything. If we could give 10 stars we would you earned them.
