Exceeded expectations

Leonard and his staff are a delight to work with. Not only are they extremely knowledgeable in their field, but they communicate quickly and clearly. I have worked with Leonard on many levels and feel he is an asset to my company. We look forward to many more years with his firm.

We recommend the Duboff Law Group

Let me start by saying going through litigation and arbitration is not easy and can be really stressful. But with The Duboff Law Group on our side it made the whole process a lot easier. I was a bit picky in selecting the right firm for our needs, but once I spoke to Mr. Duboff and his team I knew t...hey were the one. Their law firm was respectful, informative and Hardworking. They kept us informed every step of the way. Any questions we had they answered in a timely manner. We never once felt pressured, that means a lot especially with the time sensitive issues that comes along with litigation. My husband is a disabled veteran that needed some accommodations during arbitration and they were well in providing them. With Mr. Duboff being a veteran himself and all the work he has done for them, there was no doubt in my mind he was the Attorney for us. We would recommend them for your litigation needs, they are an Amazing law Group!

Ms

I was recommended to use Leonard DuBoff by a colleague in the UK who knew about Leonard's good work in USA. I am pleased with the process and legal negotiation work on property timeshare foreclosure which Leonard and his company have done for me in a courteous, professional, polite manner with a suc...cessful outcome. Mr DuBoff is honest, he kept me informed at all times with quick replies and a fair price. He is patient, understanding, knowledgeable and his office invoicing assistant is also efficient and nice to deal with. I would recommend Mr DuBoff and his practice. Many thanks.

Exceptional Service

I had an emotional and complex case for which I thought there could be no equitable solution. I contacted Mr. DuBoff based on a recommendation from the Oregon Bar. I was at first hesitant to follow through as my previous contact with attorneys had been fairly abysmal. I am exceedingly glad that I ...followed up with the contact, as Mr. DuBoff turned out to be a truly exceptional attorney. He was able to clearly interpret the complexities of the case I had, and provide sound and equitable legal advise. What impressed me most was that he made it clear that he would provide as thorough as possible legal advise, but I would be the one making the decision. To paraphrase, he said "I will do whatever you decide needs to be done, I just want you to understand the law as it applies to your case." In the end, I followed his advise and am delighted with having found the best and most equitable outcome I think the case could have had. I would NEVER hesitate to most strongly recommend Mr. DuBoff as I feel most assured that he would never provide anything but the best possible information and recommendations, no matter the case.

Confidence to move forward

As an author, my recent project was indefinitely on hold due to some legal questions I had and didn't know where to turn for help. Now, because I attended Leonard's outstanding lectures at a recent writers conference where I first met him, I am confidently moving forward with publishing my memoir. A...fter his lectures I immediately reached out to him via phone and email, to which he promptly replied. I set up a consultation over the phone, and before I knew it, all my questions and concerns were addressed "in plain English." His rates are very reasonable, and I intend to buy his "In Plain English" series of books and use his services in the future. I recommend anyone reading this to do the same.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Leonard was one of my law professors in law school. I was also privileged to share space in his building and enjoyed having him as a resource in areas in which I do not practice. He is kind and enjoyable to work with and is a gifted communicator. Clients we served together often came away understanding complex issues because of how he presented them. He is a also a shrewd tactician who understands the dynamics of litigation and how best maximize a client's advantage. I recommend him for business formation and litigation, as well as Intellectual Property matters. I enjoy my continued good relationship with him and refer clients when the needs arise."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Leonard is a passionate advocate for his clients and goes the distance when providing litigation, intellectual property and business support to his clients. His wealth of knowledge and years of experience make him a valuable asset to his clients and other attorneys. On the matters that I have worked with Leonard to resolve we have always come up with a plan and resolution that our clients were happy with."
