Hello. My name is Lawrence (Larry) Vergun, and I am attorney representing individuals and businesses throughout Oregon. Much of my business is done over the internet and via email, or through my office in Washington County, . By way of background, I have over 30 years' hands-on experience. I graduated from UC Berkeley (undergrad), with a law degree from UCLA School of Law, and an MBA from PSU. My philosophy: Be happy, work hard, be successful, and be proud of the work you do.

Review Lawrence Vergun

Consultation Leads to Ongoing Relationship

Posted by

I met with Mr. Vergun for a half hour consultation as a result of a referral by the Oregon State Bar. I spoke with him by phone and emailed ahead of time of my areas of concern regarding a small business I am starting. There was technical statutory research that needed to be done for several questions. When we met, his answers were thorough and specific to my questions; however, he also provided related information that he thought might be helpful, and it was. I felt comfortable with him and confident in his knowledge. I expect to need more legal advice through the next year, and I intend to stay with Mr. Vergun as my counsel.

solid lawyer

What Larry lacks in hair, he makes up for in intellectual genius. I have had Larry work on many of the business dealings our company has been involved with. He is easy to work with, fast at returning my calls, and getting down to the brass tacks of what I need. His intelligence and experience make him a goldmine of legal advice. I'd trust him with anything I have on my legal plate.
