If you need a great criminal defense lawyer, Jake Braunstein is the guy to call

Jake is a really down to earth guy. He didn't treat me like I was a bother and not worth his time. Thumbs up for an honest Lawyer. He was able to work with my schedule, which meant meeting me on the weekend. Even though he's pretty laid back, he was all business in the court room. You could tell the ...judge knew him really well. In the end, he convinced the judge to drop all $2000 of fines the prosecutor was asking for and to give me community service. I couldn't believe it! I was able to get out of there with no jail and no fines, just community service. I recommend him to anyone who gets in trouble.

Best criminal defense attorney in Oregon!

If you are looking for a criminal defense attorney that shows integrity and respect and who will work to find the best deal for you, look no further! Jacob has saved my family. I was looking to going to Jail for a felony and Mr. Braunstein went this distance. He researched, negotiated and executed a ...plan to keep me out of the system. Jacob does not judge you based off of your past. He showed respect and eagerness to work with me. Jacob- you have a gift. I thank you and so do my kids. You are a blessing. Thanks for all you do sir!

Best Attorney I've Ever Used

Choosing Mr. Braunstein to represent me on a DUII was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I couldn't have asked for a better attorney. He kept me well informed and was very knowledgeable. He helped me through a very stressful situation and wanted to take my case to trial where other attorneys t...old me I should just plead out. We took it to trial and won! Anyone who needs a great defense attorney this is your guy!

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.
