Smart and Kind

Ryan represented my son as a court appointed lawyer...he was great and helped our son and undone some egregious errors the previous court appointed lawyer made. We feel very fortunate that our son was one of the few court appointed clients he accepts. I would hire him and recommend him to anyone find...ing themselves facing criminal charges. Our system relies on criminal defense attorneys to protect the rights of defendants and Ryan does just that! Thank you!

A Diamond In Your Pocket

Ryan Scott AKA “The Great Scott” helped our family like no one else could through the darkest and most frightening time of our lives — becoming the proverbial lone voice who gave us hope when our family became lost in the often shocking and confusing wilderness that is our CRIMINAL justice system — a...ll the way through a successful reversal by the Oregon Supreme Court followed by a significant reduction in an unfairly long prison sentence! Ryan is the real deal — a laser-focused, hard-working, dedicated, persevering and no-nonsense litigator who will continue to persevere where even angels might fear to tread. You can do no better than having this modern-day knight at the ready — and we recommend consulting with him early during trial prior to the process of possible appeal to be certain all the right arguments are made and preserved. We cannot say enough good things about this GEM of a lawyer who really cares about his clients and will go the extra mile to be certain every member of the family’s concerns are heard and attended to!

The Best

Ryan Scott is the best defense attorney in Portland. He is very straight forward with his approach. He is knowledgeable on criminal law and will work hard for you to get the best outcome possible. I was facing 7 years of prison time on a drug charge. The DA wasn't backing down. Ryan took it to tri...al and with his research and knowledge of the law he found technicalities that got me acquitted. He had all the proper examples to back up his evidence. He went above and beyond for me. It has given me a new lease on life. Thank you Ryan.

The Best Lawyer

Ryan helped in my case where my ex was accusing me of hurting her. He was was able to prove that was not the truth as she would hurt herself every time I wanted to leave her. Thank you Ryan you are the best.

SUPER SERVICE

I was up against a vengeful ex employer who had bluffed the Portland Police Department enough to have them believe that I had stolen property from him. so they set up a sting had me sell them the item that I had owned that was my property. had me and my children laying on the ground with guns drawn o...n us as if we had just robbed a bank. they seized all my personal property, arrested me, and hauled me away. knowing I had a tarnished past for similar crimes. the ex employer knew I would have a hard time proving otherwise. that is when I reached out to Ryan Scott. Mr Scott right from the get-go told me that we would have a hard time due to my past.even though my Record that was coming up on 10 years old. at this point I was worried like no other. everything I had worked for for the past 10 years have came to a halt, put my whole entire life on hold. and as for him being a super lawyer, that is truly an under exaggeration of what this man is capable of. he was able to see through all the lies that we were having to confront. and never once did he hold my past against me. he gathered all the information that I had, put all the evidence in order so that it was clear as day, and presented it to the DA. and the district attorney continuously through out allegations from my past. Mr Scott continuously, was a very driven man with all the information and the truth he had everyday relentlessly at the DA's door. and I really need to put emphasis on how Mr Scott never once made me feel uncomfortable or untrusted or never once held my past against me. Mr Ryan Scott and his whole law frim was there for me every time I came to call.. I truly cannot say enough about this man he has truly given me my whole entire life back. and Mr Ryan Scott never gave up on pursuing the truth. to the point that the DA, the district attorney of Multnomah County dismissed all the charges I was facing. and gave me back the possible five years I was facing in prison. Mr. Scott on behalf of me and my whole entire family we cannot thank you enough you have given us our whole entire life back. "THANK YOU" RYAN SCOTT
