Edward T LeClaire

Edward is a very knowledgeable attorney and knowledge is power. Consulting him is essential in a terrible place like Oregon, he knows exactly how to approach each case and has a sincere passion to defend and he gave me a lot of hope in what was a completely illegal and staged Oregonian trial of whic...h my civil rights were abused in the worst ways (Oregon-mostly idiots, charlatans, and arrogant bullies with obnoxiously disingenuous attitudes and arrogance that makes them a state that needs walls). Where as most prosecutors are simply bad people and their passion is to play into a clearly corrupt legal system, he knows it all and will get you out of their unfair game. I had also consulted a few other excellent attorneys in states like Texas and California who’s first comments were “we wouldn’t practice in that state,” their advice also being as helpful as Edward’s knowledge.

I hired Mr Leclaire for help on a dui case in 2013. While he seemed really helpful in the beginning, as the process continued he became less responsive and seemed less stable. He did not give me the relevant information needed to make an educated decision on chosing to go to trial and exaggerated hi...s trial skills- as a result, I rejected diversion and took the case to trial. In the weeks leading up to the trial, I couldnt get ahold of him. At trial, he was woefully unprepared and had me testify without ever preparing me to take the stand. Midway through the trial, the judge pulled him into her chambers to ask if he was well enough to continue. He said he was. He should have been honest and said he wasnt Not surprisingly, we lost. He never followed up afterwards. Now that several years have passed, I see that he has been disciplined for client complaints that are much less than the mistakes he made with my case. I should have filed a complaint. He should never be allowed to practice law again.

If anyone is looking to hire a DUII attorney, I strongly would recommend Edward T LeClaire. Mr. LeClaire is a very knowledgeable guy. From the minute I contacted his office Tatiana his secretary was very nice and understanding. Not knowing what to do, they both gave me the information I needed and th...e confidence. Mr. LeClaire and Tatana were there every step of the way confirming all my court dates and keeping me up to date on all the information we had submit. Not once did he give up on my case. I am very blessed and lucky to have found him. With all his knowledge and experience we were able to win the case.

Edward LeClaire offers great representation. What a knowledgeable, trustworthy, and experienced attorney! The moment I learned he’d be representing me I got my peace of mind back. When we went to my hearing, I was even more amazed at his strategy. Don’t get deceived by his handsome looks and nice ...smile! This attorney is ready to defend you, and if there is anything that can be done for your case, rest assured - Edward LeClaire will do it. What can I say about my hearing? It was very long, it was very confusing, but the confidence of my attorney really made me feel more comfortable. And yes, we won! Thank you so much for all your help, I cant express my gratitude enough to do you justice! If any of my family or friends ever needs representation, I wont hesitate recommending Mr. LeClaire to them!
