Excellent Landlord/Tenant Atty in Portland

I got to Pete Meyers because the first landlord/tenant attorney I hired charged an arm and a leg and gave me the *wrong* legal advice. Our group has several multi-family properties and lo and behold we inherited a few drug addicts when we assumed managing the building. Meyers didn't require a $750.00... automatic retainer before he'd even talk to me, like the other landlord attorney did. He just explained the law, explained the choices, and answered questions, billed me. When it comes to this stuff–landlord tenant–the simpler the better. Meyers was simple, fair, and honest. I would recommend him to anyone seeking a landlord attorney. Such a relief.

Mobile Home Park Resolution

I had a particularly complex situation in the mobile home park where I owned a manufactured home. Within just a day or two after meeting with him, Pete sent a demand letter to the landlord. I think it was his detailed knowledge of the law and his quick absorption of my complicated rental agreement an...d park rules that made the landlord back down--she wasn't aware of the "alternative dispute resolution" provision she had drafted into her own rental agreement! Pete took advantage of that to our advantage and I was delighted when the landlord withdrew her 30-day for-cause termination notice. It was a pleasure working with him.

Landlord issue handled amazingly well

We worked with Pete regarding an issue with our rental agreement. Our landlord was being unfair with some changes to the lease after we had moved in. We worked with him to help understand our options for getting out of our lease and he was extremely knowledgeable, approachable, and helpful. He com...municated with us at all steps of the process and helped us resolve the issue amicably and in our best interest. I would recommend him to any of my friends, co-workers or family.

Thorough and Professional

As a fairly new landlord with little experience I was anxious handling the legal matters of a tenant eviction on my own. I was refered to Pete by my employer and after our first phone conversation felt very comfortable working with him further. During our appointment I discussed my the need to have... a tenent removed and in less than an hour Pete drafted a letter for termination of lease for failure to pay rent. Working with Pete was a great experience. He is quick, thorough and professional and successfully helped me meet my goal. If needed I would definitely work with him again.
