​

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

Our attorneys have served as leaders of the largest revenue generating agencies in Oregon; have represented elected officials; and, have served as legal counsel for the largest agencies in the City of Portland and the State of Oregon.  We know that government does not always act competently, equitably, or uniformly.  Moreover, regulatory requirements that apply to you or your business are often complex, confusing, and cumbersome.  Our combined experience has enabled us to understand government and government processes inside and out.  We can help you or your business navigate through complex regulations, licensing and business requirements, as well as government enforcement against you or your business.

​

EMPLOYMENT

We advise employers and employees on all aspects of employment law, including compliance with federal and state laws that govern the workplace,  advice on recommended human resource practices and policies, or dealing with specific employer/employee workplace issues that may arise.   We also conduct workplace investigations into allegations of harassment, discrimination and/or retaliation.

​

LITIGATION

We represent businesses and individuals in a wide range of litigation matters before federal and state courts, administrative agencies, and self-regulatory organizations.  We also understand that often the optimal resolution to a dispute is one that is achieved without the necessity of litigation.  We work hard to achieve a favorable outcome for our clients without the uncertainty and expense of litigation wherever possible.  However, where such resolution is not possible, we will vigorously pursue and defend our clients' interests.
