He was late to both meetings we had with him and he forgot about my very first meeting which wasted my time.

I recently moved to Portland and ended up in an unfortunate situation with a crazy, narcissistic landlord who is a retired judge and attorney and who used his law background to bully me, push me around, and threaten me with an enormous law suit. Troy was very easy to work with and great at helping me to understand my complex legal situation and bring it to a peaceful resolution. I highly recommend Troy and Portland Defender. His rates are reasonable and he put in some extra time for me. All communications were clear and timely. I had never had to hire a lawyer before, and I was a little intimidated by the whole situation, but Troy made the whole thing much less stressful for me. Lawyers get a bad rap, but Troy is truly a good guy you can trust. And he will fight hard for you!

Troy is on it; really great to work with. He is on your side, and able to clarify and support in difficult situations. It is always worth it to reach out to him. I highly recommend it.
He guided me through a tricky acquisition (I was living in a building that was sold, and the new owners/management decided to empty the units to rebuild). Troy checked in on every aspect to make sure I was being treated fairly, and within the law. As soon as that was not the case, he was quick to contact the management and I received a settlement.

Troy and team were wonderful in recouping costs from a landlord dispute that I had last fall. I rented a unit from RMS property management that wasn't heated (lack of heat was not disclosed before signing the lease). Troy worked directly with the management company to obtain a sizable settlement. Throughout the process he kept me informed of settlement progress via email.
I would highly recommend Portland Defenders for landlord deputes. They were extremely professional and experienced. I appreciated how quick and easy they made this entire process.

This was my first experience with a lawyer. Troy made me feel totally understood and extremely confident that I was in the right hands. He is a super friendly guy with a positive energy. I found myself in a pretty bad situation with a landlord that took advantage of my money/sanity. Troy succeeded in our case, we won and now I'm happily waiting on my check in the mail! Fingers crossed I don't have too, but I would use Troy again in a heartbeat. Hands down the best.

Troy is a superb down to earth attorney. He consulted us on how to deal with a landlord issue after we moved out and based on his advice, we got the situation taken care of to our satisfaction. I can recommend him to anyone who needs an attorney to deal with landlord tenant issues! Thank you again!

The moment I came in for my appointment, this gentlemen was texting away to somebody for a good 5 minutes, asking me to wait. I paid my fees and when we began to discussing my case, he kept texting away saying that he was listening. He only asked a few minor questions and then called it quits, saying that there was nothing he could do. Worst experience with a professional. I found a far more experienced attorney that helped me get through my case. Not like this youngster.

Amazing results and wonderful customer service. would certainly use Troy again, if the need arises.
Now, for those of you who actually read the more in depth reviews, let me tell you a story. Roughly a month before our wedding, my fiancé and I were troubled by a bad neighbor and given some unnecessary problems from our landlord, Greystar Mgmt. This resulted in us nearly being evicted on a false basis.
I am not one to use an attorney and generally handle problems myself as they arise, but this was untouchable without legal advice. I searched and quickly called Troy based upon the reviews I read here. Two rings and I was talking to the man himself. As our matter was very time sensitive, he even agreed to meet with us short notice in two hours time.
Once we arrived at Troy's contemporary digs, we were greeted with an impeccably professional attitude, listened to and communicate with as old friends, (by both Troy and his Paralegal!) and had hatched a plan of action in just a few moments time.
After this, we left feeling much more relaxed.
The icing on top? Within two days Troy emailed us stating that all of our demands had been met. It was literally that easy. He got us everything we wanted for such an unbelievably low price. I could not be happier.
Thank you Troy!!!!

My experience with Troy was outstanding. He made it quick and easy. I will not go anywhere else for my issues and will refer him to anybody I know. He most definitely is on the tenants side when it comes to tenant/landlord issues. My landlord tried to raise my rent and give me a no cause termination notice after I requested for maintenance. It took her a week to get somebody to come out to fix our issue and after it was fixed, she gave me a no cause termination of residency. I went to Troy right away that day and that was it. Explained my situation to him and he took care of it right away. No hassle at all. I now don't have a rental increase and do not have to move. On top of that, he got me some money. I give him a five star and will refer him to everybody.

My landlord sent my house a no-cause eviction notice. This really freaked me out since we're on a lease. A friend recommended Troy and with one phone call my stress level went from 10 to 2. He was very friendly, answered all of my questions, and even put us in his system and documented the call. I'm hoping this issue can be resolved without legal action, but if we do need to hire a lawyer for this we're calling Troy.

My fiancé and I first met with Mr. Pickard in 2014. All expenses & time spent with him were Worth It! I recently called him again and I was eased of all my worries with his opinion and expertise! Anytime I will ever need to hire an attorney, it will be Mr. Troy Pickard. Thank You So Much for All Your Help!
