Brian Michael Starns

I hired Brian to defend me in a DUII case, along with charges of reckless driving and failing to maintain my lane. Brian was able to get me into a diversion program, and have both the reckless driving and failing to maintain my lane dropped. I contacted Brian on a Saturday and was extremely surprise...d that he got back to me immediately! He was always available day or night, and always got right back to me with a phone call or text. It was extremely difficult for me to navigate through this process due to some medical issues; Brian was very kind, and took the time to explain everything to me (sometimes several times) and making sure I understood them. I would definitely recommend Brian to anybody looking for an attorney!

After my case went before the judge, I could tell Brian holds an excellent understanding on how the court system works in Hood River. If you unfortunately find yourself in the emotional turmoil of a DUII, I would strongly recommend Brian. He is a great listener, a solid communicator, and shows auth...entic sympathy for your situation.

I hired Brian after consulting with him one time. I hired him because I felt that he really understood and was concerned with what was on the line for me if I was convicted of my charges. I also hired Brian because of his many years of defense experience and handling similar cases like mine. I had a ...great experience and felt like I made the right choice because he made himself very available if I needed to contact him. He was timely when responding to my emails he would either get back to me that day or the following day. I also appreciated that his responses were very clear and understandable. Thanks to Brian the charges against me were dropped. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal advice and expertise.

Brian Starns is a lawyer who truly cares about his client and providing the best possible outcome. He was very attentive, thorough, and concise gathering background information about me, the legal situation I found myself in and outside influences. Mr. Starns' presence encouraged truthfulness and ful...l disclosure while maintaining respect for me, the client. He did not encourage false hope but quickly laid out the possible scenerios and encouraged me to come to terms with that knowledge. I had already claimed guilt and was not interested in a trial. Mr. Starns exhibited his diplomacy, knowledge of the type criminal behavior involved and the law in reaching an equitible outcome with the DA. Throughout the few months we worked together, I was kept informed and felt confident the day we went to court. I would recommend Mr. Brian Starns to anyone who requires more than just representation. He is willing to think outside the box and works well with the local justice system for the best possible outcome for you, the client.
