Super!

I have never had to hire an attorney, and to be honest I almost didn’t due to me thinking I would never be able to win against a large property management company. After my first call with Kirk I felt that I had options and a truthful look at my side of the case as well as thoughts of how the other ...side might come at us. He walked me through everything, every conversation and options for moving forwards and never made me feel rushed. I had such confidence with him in my corner and recommend him highly. I know who I am going to call should I ever need such services again.

Don’t understand whose title your asking for

Kirkland Roberts was my attorney for three years in an accident lawsuit; He is very knowledgeable in law; what makes him stand out is his continuing research on the medical and health aspects of my condition and multiple complications, twists and turns that took place in the three year process

Family Law Case

Kirk was professional, attentive, and exceeded my expectations. My FAPA case was complicated and emotionally difficult for me. Kirk managed the case like all great attorneys do, he gathered the information, created a winning strategy and implemented the strategy until an agreement was reach. Kirk use...d his vast law knowledge and expertise to eventually settle the case. I’m pleased with his hard work and persistent winning attitude. If I ever need an attorney in the future, I won’t hesitate to contact Kirk. Great Job!

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2019.

Reprimand issued in OR, 2019

updated on 12/03/2020

This means the lawyer did something wrong but the bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

Kirkland’s comment:

“I was hired by a client on a car crash claim, who then hired a 2nd lawyer on the same claim, after I had spent considerable time on the case. Before we could reach agreement on the terms for release of the file, I mailed a letter to client and the 2nd lawyer notifying of the need to file the claim before the deadline for filing the claim expired. While I made a mistake in communicating w/ client when he had a new lawyer, my intent was to protect the client, so he would not miss the deadline.”
