The best I’ve ever known

The best experience I could’ve hoped for. Mr. New advocated me, supported me, and did everything within his power to fight for me. I couldn’t recommend more highly.

Sincere, professional, and knowledgeable

I consulted Jordan for my divorce (= he prepared the papers and answered my questions. I am sure he did more! but that's how I saw... ), and I couldn't have asked for more. He was quick, responsive, always had answers for my questions, and very human throughout the process.

Extremely professional

Jordan represented me for my divorce and child custody case that took almost two years. I have to particularly touch upon and appreciate the ethical standards that Jordan and everyone in his office exhibited throughout the course of my case. Their patient and respectful approach towards understanding... my perspective and suggestions has impressed me a lot. At every stage during the case, the calm, timely and astute advice and interventions provided by them helped me make the wisest of decisions. It's pertinent to note that this certainly helped me navigate sturdily the period of the case, which might have been quite arduous otherwise. I highly recommend Jordan and his firm.

Highly recommend

Jordan dedicated over 2 years helping me and my children go through a difficult and challenging divorce. He never gave up on trying to achieve the best outcome for my children. Jordan was very effective at communicating with me in an open and honest way - how the process worked, what my role would b...e and how I could best support my case. His responsiveness to my emails was immediate, each and every time (and there were many). I trusted Jordan's judgment and would highly recommend him to anyone going through a divorce and/or child custody case.

Great attorney

I recently hired Jordan New to represent me in my child custody case. He was extremely responsive and worked very hard in ensuring I was given every possible option that would be best for myself, and most importantly, my child. His good judgement in everything that came up in my case gave me extreme ...confidence in him and his ability to guide me towards the best solution. I would recommend Mr. New to anybody in a divorce, separation, or child custody case.

"Jordan and I both started out as Deputy District Attorneys in one of the busiest offices in the state, Multnomah County. It was common for attorneys in our position to have multiple trials per week, sometimes 3-4. Jordan had an impeccable trial record and a sterling reputation. Since leaving the District Attorney's office Jordan has broadened his area of practice handling family law and medical malpractice. I've known Jordan for over 7 years now, and I can say with confidence that his work and professionalism are of a very high quality."
