Ethical, knowledgeable, professional, experienced lawyer!

I had a consultation with Mr. Abbott regarding my landlord who was sending me legal notices. Mr Abbott responded within 24 hours of my request for assistance, was able to give me a consultation appointment quickly, and took time reading my entire lease and documents and he was not intimidated by anyt...hing I was up against. I am so grateful to have him ready to take me as a client, as I fully expect to have to go to court against my landlord soon. Mr Abbott thank you so much.

Way beyond my expectations and in less than 10 min! Lol

To be honest , I really didn't expect a response ...Not only did I get one, but in less than 10 min from posting it! Mr Abbott , you have no idea the service you gave me. Im at my witts end with people not doing what's right. I don't understand it , and it disgusts me . I want to ruffle feathers on p...ure principle not to mention the legality of my situation. I know my situation isn't the worst but it is illegal. They expect us not to do anything for fear of retaliation (which they've tried already) but I'm done being bullied because I'm disabled and have no money...I want to make a point beyond winning of course but for others like me. Make a stand and hope my situation helps others to fight back with theirs.... You gave me the support I needed to find my strength again and not be a victim. (Obviously, this isn't the only thing that brought me down ) pretty dramatic I know...but you helped me back up, nonetheless! Thank you , I wish you were local...

Helpful, Realistic, Gives Good Guidance

Gregory helped me with a Possessory Lien filed against me for a car that I once owned, but sold. Unfortunately DMV identified me as owner and I was threatened with collections to cover the exorbitantly high costs of towing and storage. He was honest about my chances and also clearly suggested what I ...could do about the situation. Ultimately, a high level person at DMV in Salem intervened and no longer is there a threat of this hovering over my head. Without this attorney's consult, I would not have handled this situation correctly.

Great attorney with tons of experience!

In early Fall of 2015 we had a dispute with a tenant over payment of rent and rat infestation in the crawlspace that was handled very timely. The tenant got a lawyer to send us threatening letters and refused to pay rent which was hugely stressful. I did a bunch of research to find someone who had a ...lot of experience and skills at handling Landlord/Tenant Law. Greg’s reviews seemed frank and honest and I am very glad we chose him as our attorney. It took a couple of months and the tenant pulled out all the stops in fighting us, but we were able to evict the tenant and get a judgment. Greg was always calm and explained things in detail so we could make educated decisions. His experience with the courts and more importantly with the human element of the conflict in these situations is really invaluable. He gave us good advice and I’m glad we took it. One thing that struck me as a client is that he loves practicing law and loves advocating for his clients. Always a good thing in the lawyer you are hiring! We will definitely use him again if we need an attorney, and we will recommend him to our friends.

Great advice! Great lawyer!!!

Landlord-tenant issues. Greg knew the law. He gave me great advice. He met me after my work hours which was really helpful. While the law in Oregon tends to favor the tenant, Greg kept me on the 'good side' of the law, advised me what and what not to do. I would totally recommend Greg, and would... use him again (hopefully I won't have to).
