Before you get in touch

Your first questions, answered.

Do I have to pay hourly legal fees?

For accepted matters, the firm generally works on a contingency basis. No fee unless money is recovered for you. The exact fee and cost arrangement is explained in a written fee agreement before representation begins.

What should I send first?

Start with the property location, who is involved, what went wrong, the rough amount at stake, and any important dates. You do not need a perfectly organized file to begin.

Do you handle Oregon and Washington matters?

The firm is based in Portland, Oregon. Oregon matters are handled directly. Washington matters are handled with local Washington counsel where required or appropriate.

What if I am not sure whether the problem is construction, insurance, or hidden-defect related?

That is common. Start with the short version. The legal category can usually be sorted out after the firm reviews the repair problem, the parties involved, and the available documents.
