When I initially consulted Caryn I was lost. My co-parent disappeared with our son for three months. I thought that I wasn't ever going to see him again but Caryn reassured me that I would. She worked through difficult negotiations, answered calls while on vacation, and help ease my stress and anxiety with her kind and professional approach. Caryn was more than just an attorney, she was someone that I trusted and I knew was in my corner. Through her coaching I was able to stand strong and confident in the courtroom. But don't let her kindness and charm fool you, she's a fighter and she's willing to standup to injustices. I give Caryn the credit for presenting my case in a manner that awarded me full custody of my child. I can't praise her enough, if you're looking for a family law attorney then look no further.

I retained Caryn. Night and day difference! Where my previous attorney was inaccessible, made major errors and wasted my entire retainer in little over a month, Caryn was always quick with a response and reasonable with her fees while providing amazing representation. She was also quick to fix the errors my previous attorney had made (some of which could have cost me dearly). Caryn truly listens and fights for what you want, aggressively. She makes smart decisions that work to your best advantage, and handles herself with tact and grace in the courtroom while still fighting for you; exactly the presence that is needed. She was my rock through a messy divorce and custody case; where I had intense anxiety and never felt listened to with my previous attorney, I always felt heard and understood with Caryn. If you have an ex who is a bully, go to Caryn, she will not play around with that and give you the confidence you need to prevail in court.

Hiring Caryn to help me through my divorce was a godsend. Having been subjected to many threatening, insulting and manipulative emails from my soon-to--be ex, I was very intimidated when I first came to her. Caryn helped me to see through these tactics and set boundaries. Caryn is a great advocate. She kept the big picture in mind and helped me get the best result possible, financially. Her expertise and confidence were worth every penny I spent. Even more than that, working with Caryn helped me regain confidence in myself and my self-worth. With her sense of humor and fearless attitude, she was a role-model to me that I sorely needed. She was my back-bone while I grew a stronger one. That is priceless. I recommend Caryn wholeheartedly!

My divorce was rough, we didn't get along at all, and had no idea how to get this done. It was two tigers chained together. Caryn was instrumental in keeping lines of communication open as to where we were in the process, what needed to happen next, and was prompt at seeing to it that things were resolved for my benefit. She gave up no ground and proved to be excellent counsel. She will be on speed dial for this and anything else I may need in the realm of law she practices. Two thumbs way up!

Caryn was amazing from start to finish, especially at our trial. I could not have done it without her! Strong and confident, she knows what the priorities are and keeps her cool in even the most stressful situations, and plays her cards with perfect timing. We had lots of laughs and (excuse me) kicked butt in court! She kept me on track in terms of what was pertinent to say and topics that were not very important, and therefore, saved my life from many unnecessary stresses! I highly recommend her. You can not go wrong with someone who is personal and so professional at the same time! A +++

I had a tricky case with a verbally abusive and scary Ex. Caryn recommended some seemingly drastic measures that proved to be exactly what I needed to protect myself and my child. Her willingness to hear my fears and her direct answers to them set me at ease and empowered me to persevere when I would have normally given up. I really feel it was with her by my side that my case was such a huge success. As a new lawyer there were some mishaps, that Caryn quickly fixed. If she didn't know the answer to something she was quick to ask a mentor and get back to me quickly. There was not a chip on her shoulder, that brought a sense of comfort because I knew she was not too proud to ask for help from someone with more experience. If you are looking for custody or getting a divorce I can highly recommend Caryn. This recommendation is especially for women who are in scary situations or facing a tough case. Caryn was confident in handling the maniac ways of my ex and I am positive she can handle most anything.

Caryn Jones is an extremely knowledgeable lawyer who keeps me up to date about everything going on with my case. She is very reliable and great at what she does. She is an amazing listener and understands what someone is going through. Thank you Caryn for all you do for us Portland women!

She made me feel comfortable from the start. We won my case and we knew we were gonna win it.

Caryn helped me with a fairly quick and easy matter within Multnomah County. The flat fee payment system was great as I could email or contact Caryn without my bill going sky high. Caryn was very responsive, kept me informed and I plan to recommend her to friends and colleagues needing legal services.

I spent some time on my own putting together the forms I needed to file my LLC and operating agreement with my business partner. I was looking for an attorney that could look over these documents and help me correct any mistakes and file them properly. Every lawyer I talked to wanted a retainer or was charging a ridiculous amount to do what I felt was a fairly straight forward task. Caryn reviewed my documents, corrected some major errors I had made and charged me a flat fee that was more than reasonable. She was incredibly responsive throughout the process and I really felt like she helped educate me on a few things. Thank you!
