    Review Jordan New

    Simply the best!

    5.0 stars

    Posted by

    My family recently went through an unexpected upheaval, we believed we had no choice but to accept and move on from an unbearable and unthinkable situation. Then we had the privilege of having Jordan New and his firm make a stand on our behalf. Aside from being trustworthy, attentive, prompt and professional Jordan New went the extra mile to offer not only his legal expertise but his emotional support as well. Jordan was thoughtful, thorough, and patient. Not only did we prevail in court, the peace of mind Mr. New was able to give to my family is simply monumental. His representation far exceed even our highest expectations. We will be highly recommending Jordan New and his firm. Do not hesitate to hire Brincat & New they are FIRST CLASS.

    I hired Jordan for a custody and support dispute. He and the team at his firm were excellent. They were knowledgeable and responsive, and their billing practices were fair and transparent. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a family law attorney.

    Jordan helped me through one of the most difficult times in my life. He was thoughtful, thorough, had the utmost attention to detail, going above and beyond in every respect. He walked me through everything I needed to know about the process and assisted me by taking the stress off. I knew I could count on him to get the job done well. I would not hesitate to use him again, if I needed to and I refer him to everyone I know who needs a good attorney.

    I highly recommend Jordan New for complicated divorce situations...

    I have been working with Jordan New for almost 2 years to complete my divorce process with a highly uncooperative other party. This was a highly stressful process for myself and my children, we were faced with a lot of “unknowns” as we navigated through it. Not only was Jordan highly organized, efficient, and consistently available, he was a rock in my storm so to speak. While Jordan was very sympathetic to the situation my children and I were placed in, he helped to keep me grounded in the facts and the paths we needed to take forward to ultimately complete our process. Jordan is ethical, kind, and professional and these are the skills he utilizes to get the job done. Jordan is also highly intelligent and I never once had to question his legal advice or get another opinion. 18 months later, my divorce is complete and my life is finally able to start stabilizing. I recommend Jordan New to EVERYONE, He is the only attorney that I will ever use if future issues present themselves.

    Outstanding Attorney!

    I recently went through a divorce that lasted almost a year and a half.In the course of this divorce, Jordan's extensive knowledge in Family Law alongside Criminal justice has helped to take right decisions while dealing with a narcissistic and uncooperative ex. My divorce case in its nature was a bit complicated including an existing restraining order,extending restraining order, international law related to dowry and assets.Jordan's strong work ethics, attention to details,hard working nature,simplistic approach towards solving problem and amazing writing skills was added advantage in approaching this case a more professional and realistic manner.Anyone who has worked with Jordan will know his passion towards the work he has undertaken and how genuinely he is interested in helping his clients. In addition to the legal guidance , i am eternally thankful to Jordan New for the emotional and mental support he has provided me and my family throughout this difficult period. I would highly recommend Jordan and his law firm, Brincat & New to anyone in search of a thoughtful, caring legal crew.

    I highly recommend Jordan as an attorney. I appreciate the way he handled my case from our initial phone call to our final settlement. I found Jordan to be professional, incredibly proficient in his family law knowledge and a man of integrity. He is a timely and effective communicator and always had my best interests at heart. I feel Jordan managed my legal aspects with candor, speed and an eye for detail. He is an expert in his field at what feels like a discounted rate.

    I was in need of legal advice on a short deadline. Mr. New jumped in, asked pertinent questions, and produced exactly what I needed, when I needed it. He was efficient and very fair with his fees. I have recommended Mr. New to many others and will continue to do so.

    When I needed a prenup done, Jordan listened very carefully and addressed all of my concerns, and answered all of my questions throughout the process. His rate was way beyond fair, and any other attorney would have raked me over for all the unforeseen issues and added tasks that popped up. He is extremely personable and easy to reach. I highly recommend his services. Like many that have been through the various legal avenues, I'm not very fond of attorneys as a group, Ha! But I would trust him every time for any future family law services!

    I highly recommend Jordan New. At the initial meeting, I sensed that he was someone I could trust and would represent me well. He is very professional, knowledgeable, organized, diligent, efficient, and a personable attorney. He is proactive, very responsive and clear and concise in his communication. I appreciated his calm and caring approach during this difficult process. He showed a keen instinct and quickly evaluated information and made decisive actions during the hearing. I appreciate the outstanding representation in my family law case.

    Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

    Jordan and I both started out as Deputy District Attorneys in one of the busiest offices in the state, Multnomah County. It was common for attorneys in our position to have multiple trials per week, sometimes 3-4. Jordan had an impeccable trial record and a sterling reputation. Since leaving the District Attorney's office Jordan has broadened his area of practice handling family law and medical malpractice. I've known Jordan for over 7 years now, and I can say with confidence that his work and professionalism are of a very high quality.
