Friendly, attentive, and thoughtful

Shawn and Lisa are my first call for issues relating to negotiating real estate deals, foreclosures, and property management. They are very helpful (and IMHO, undercharge). Lisa is fast and efficient in helping us review titles, and Shawn is shrewd about the best practices of real estate investing in... Oregon.

Multi-faceted! A Real-Estate Law Expert!

A couple of years ago our company transitioned away from a large firm to work with Mr. Morgan exclusively. He and his team are able to address any and all of our legal matters, and always do so in a timely manner and at a fair cost. A pleasure to work with, we will continue to call on Mr. Morgan for ...all future legal and Real-Estate-related matters.

Extremely knowledgeable and professional

Shawn is extremely knowledgeable and detail oriented. He genuinely has his client's best interest in mind. Shawn has provided numerous services to me including creating customized promissory notes and deed of trusts.

Shawn Morgan Attorney

During the years since Shawn Morgan was a deputy district attorney in Las Vegas, I have relied upon his knowledge and efficient legal advise in various real estate transactions. He has reviewed the legal ramifications of my acquisitions, subsequently drafted the necessary documents and followed up by... finding the best available financing. I was particularly pleased that he was capable of drafting contracts with various contractors for major remodeling and finally handling my dealings with property management companies. I do not hesitate to commend him to any organization which requires his multi faceted talents and capabilities. Sincerely, Ed, Partner High Valley Properties.

Real Estate

I was interested in purchasing a foreclosed home as an investment property and was unsure about potential legal complications. Shawn was knowledgeable, friendly, and responsive and not only helped with understanding the process and implications, but also drafted all of the necessary deeds and contra...cts. I would recommend him highly and will definitely use him again in our future investment endeavors.

I've also discussed land use and landlord tenant issues with him; He is very knowledgeable. Finally, I've referred several clients to him for real estate issues and they're always satisfied. I endorse his work!"

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Many years ago I had a case go to trial against Shawn. He is as talented as he is prepared for court. His knowledge of the relevant law was encylopedic. If I were in need of a trial lawyer in the Portland area, Shawn would be my first call."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
