Best Attorney I've Ever Met

Jeremiah was amazing, helping me with every part of my case. From my initial consultation I knew he was trustable, as he tried to assist me with resolving the matter on my own, saving time and money, which would have prevented him from gaining a client. Unfortunately the insurance company wouldn't bu...dge, and I had to take legal action. From the moment I signed on with Jeremiah he took care of everything. Working with him and Phoebe was great, and they answered any question I had and took care of the difficult communications so I didn't have to. We had to go all the way through mediation and we prevailed! He helped get a much fairer award than the insurance company wanted to offer. I would definitely look to Ross Law if I need representation in the future!

Persistent and effective

Happy with their work, and got the desired result. The other side kept dragging their feet, but Jeremiah was persistent. He is very straightforward, and both he and Phoebe kept me in the loop and informed every step of the way. Jeremiah was very clear during our initial consultation, and didn't p...ressure me at all. I felt that he wanted me to make the decision that was best for me. He answered all of my questions thoroughly and listened to all of my concerns as the case proceeded.

HIT AND RUN

I recently had the pleasure of working with Ross Law and Jerimah Ross as my attorney. He represented me in automotive hit and run which I was not responsible for but some how was caught in the middle of - due to a shady unmentioned dealership and individual who was. Jeremiah was able to represent my... interest and get this sorted out within a couple of weeks. I had been trying to resolve it on my own for almost a year - ad unfortunately was not able to clear my involvement until he represented came on the scene. Thank you and truly appreciate your expediency in getting this put to rest.

A fantastic representative

This review is long overdue. A little over a year ago I bought a truck from a car dealership in Portland that had a broken odometer. Given the obviousness of this mistake I thought that I could call the dealership, bring the truck back and get a full refund without a problem. That was not the case. A...fter two months of being stonewalled by the dealership I gave Jeremiah a call and from then on it was in his hands. Jeremiah fought for me for just under a year and did all the dealings that I would never want to be burdened with. He was very prompt in his communication and did a fantastic job explaining the process to me. I live out of state, and moved during the past year across country, but never during that time did I feel out of the loop. In the end Jeremiah was able to negotiate a settlement that left me very happy. I couldn't recommend him enough. You can rest easy if Jeremiah is on your side.

Knowledgeable and Helpful

Jeremiah helped me through a tough case and he pinpointed details that made my case. I would have been at a loss if he hadn't been there to help me understand what to do and how to do it. I am able to afford to go back to school because of Jeremiah's hard work. It's rare to find someone willing to wo...rk 110% of the time.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Jeremiah was opposing counsel (prosecutor) on several matters in which I was hired for to defend a client facing criminal charges. We did not always see eye to eye on matters, but I will say that he worked hard, ethically, treated others with due respect, and did not fear litigating. I have no doubt he continues to do the same since moving north to Oregon."
