Great Experience!

Greg and his assistant handled my accident case with professionalism and integrity. They were available for questions and in-person meetings, and updated me regularly on how the process was going. Greg gave me honest feedback and advice on possible outcomes and was kind and supportive during a stre...ssful time. I was very pleased with the results of my case. I would highly recommend his services!

Greg Zeuthen knows how to get you the relief you deserve.

Greg goes above and beyond for me and my family. He listens carefully and gives clear responses to all of our questions. He is as relentless in negotiations with the insurance companies as he is compassionate for the hardships my family has experienced. Look no further for an experienced and skill...ed attorney.

Excellent Lawyer. Excellent Experience.

I hired Greg for a personal injury case involving an auto crash. Greg and his paralegal Rachael were instrumental in conducting a winning suit against the defense insurance we went up against and were able to take policy limits. Throughout the process, Greg and Rachael were attentive to emails an...d correspondence, guiding me each step of the way. Greg is knowledgeable, helpful, and has a strong presence in his field. I would recommend him to friends and family alike.

Greg always does what he says he's going to do.

Almost twenty years ago, I was involved in a multi-car accident when a commercial, cleaning service van failed to stop at a stoplight. Thankfully, I was not injured but my car was heavily damaged. Another gentleman also hit by the van, however, was badly injured and needed medical services. The dri...ver of the van stated that he was hit by someone else (although there was no other damage to his van) and therefore was not at fault. A respected, attorney friend of my family knew Greg Zeuthen and highly recommended him both personally and professionally. Greg gave me excellent advice and ended up representing the other injured person involved in the accident as well. I will always remember Greg during the deposition of the van driver. He was respectful, firm and professional when questioning the other party. The outcome was very successful. Now to the present. Recently, I was heading home from work on Hwy 26 on a beautiful afternoon. As I slowed my vehicle for traffic ahead, I looked in my rearview mirror and was stunned to see the car behind approaching at full highway speed. The impact totaled my car and left me with an injured shoulder, needing surgery. When the other driver’s insurance company tried to offer a small, immediate settlement the following morning, before seeing a doctor, I immediately searched my home looking for Greg Zeuthen’s number. It had been 18 years since we last connected and I found Greg to be the same warm, confident and focused professional he was back then. His attention to all of the details were impressive as he advised me to get the medical care needed and he would take care of the rest. Greg, along with his assistant Rachael, worked with both the driver’s insurance company as well as my own. There always seemed to be mutual respect on all sides which allowed me to maintain a good relationship with the company I’ve been happy with for many years. The final outcome was beyond my expectation. Greg successfully negotiated a full settlement with both insurance companies. I have recommended Greg to my family, friends, neighbors and professional colleagues. He always does what he says he is going to do and that’s becoming rare these days. Every email and call is answered. He is a skilled diplomate with all parties involved and I know from experience, he sincerely champions his clients.

Knowledgeable and thorough

We met with Greg after a shocking accident with TriMet, which resulted in my father losing one of his legs. My father’s trauma extended to our entire family and affected every part of our daily lives both short term and long term. When we met Greg he productively gathered facts and started wor...king on our case. Greg is an excellent communicator. He clearly outlined how things could unfold, what our options were, and prepared us for every possible scenario. This was especially important for my elderly parents who were trying to cope with a trauma as well as legal processes. Greg and his team were nothing but patient, helpful and supportive. They are exceptional people who were punctual, detailed, and responsive to any questions or concerns we had. Greg was always prompt to inform us of any updates and to explain where we were in the process and what the next steps would be. He had a good rapport with the opposing counsel and always defended our best interests. Greg negotiated a settlement without putting our family through a trial. He handled everything with a high level of integrity, professionalism and impeccable work ethic. He is a phenomenal lawyer and an incredible person. Even now when we have legal questions, Greg is our go-to person and he continues to be patient, prompt, and exceptional. There is nobody else we recommend for personal injury cases and we are confident that you won’t have any regrets when choosing Greg Zeuthen to represent you.

He is wonderful with witnesses in the courtroom and at depositions.
