Hero
Mr. Starns was very helpful to us. He was able to resolve our problem via emails and phone calls as we do not live in Hood River. He represented us very well and is always professional and kind. I would highly recommend Mr. Starns to anyone needing help.

Efficient & Straight Forward
I had a simple issue that turned into a clerical issue mostly but Brian stuck to his billing rate & direction as he worked to solve my problem. Overall I felt he worked hard for me and didn't give up on how he foresaw the events to unfold.
"I have known Brian for almost ten years, and worked with him for five years. I am always impressed by his continued quest for knowledge and his dedication to his clients. He works for the best result possible on every case, and stands up for the rights of his clients."
"I endorse this lawyer. Brian is an excellent and compassionate attorney who learned from some of the best in Oregon. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him for your criminal needs."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. Brian is a skilled attorney and I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of criminal defense help."
