Stands up to bullies with class and compassion

I came to Troy for help with a retaliative landlord whose abusive behavior left me barely scraping by financially. Troy helped me resolve the matter without any escalation and I was able to recoup enough of my damages to ease the strain. He kept us out of court and his calm, warm demeanor and firm st...ance on protecting tenant's rights helped me stand up for myself in a way I can feel proud of. I hope I don't need to use Troy again but I'm glad to know he's there if I do.

Excellent criminal defense lawyer

I am so glad Troy Pickard was available for my criminal case. I was charged with a serious crime in Portland - but I was the wrong guy! I was worried that a lawyer wouldn't believe me - that I would get someone who would ignore me and just want to get rid of my case. But Troy really listened. And ...he worked hard for me, and he got my case dismissed. It was like having a huge weight lifted off my chest when it was over. Troy was worth every dollar I paid. I hope I will never need any legal help again, but if I do, I'll call Troy immediately.

Help when it was needed

We had a very challenging move to Portlant due to a dispute with our landlord. After scanning reviews on-line I quickly picked Mr. Pickard to help us with our landlord/tenant dispute. I could not believe how quickly he got the ball rolling. It was extremely beneficial knowing I was not going to co...urt alone. We had difficulty with the Oregon Court system after everything was settled in getting our money back and Mr. Pickard stayed in it with us for the long haul until every last piece of the problem was solved and settled.

Excellent Courtroom Presence, Very Intelligent, Superior Client Service.

I retained Troy Pickard to assist me in challenging a restraining order case brought by an angry vindictive landlord. Troy quickly file the appropriate responses and kept me well-informed of all procedural nuances, opposing counsel settlement offers and risks. Troy was confident, yet pragmatic - an...d responsive. His service attitude is outstanding. Troy encouraged me to trust his knowledge - glad I did because his courtroom skills were impressive, especially his cross-examination, which quickly revealed the Landlord's disingenuous claims. Result was a quick dismissal of the restraining order, that came without my - or my character witnesses - need for testimony. The use of ROs by landlords was something new for Troy, but his research was thorough - and his courtroom preparation was far superior to that of opposing counsel (Troy crushed the other attorney!!!). Troy was truly impressive. I would highly recommend Mr. Pickard for any landlord-tenant legal issues.

Total Legal Ninja

Troy was amazing. In our land-lord tenant case, Troy was like a rock in the moving ocean of legal non-sense. He knew his stuff, knew what was comming next, was very calm at all times, and helped us to feel at ease in a not so fun situation. I was almost sure when we went to trial that he was going ...to set off the metal detector because I was convinced there had to be some chinese stars hiding in his jacket. Ninjas always keep those things on them and Troy is definitly a legal ninja!
