About Joshua
Biography
If you are starting a business, you probably wish you could hire a lawyer to help you get started, which is smart, because you have important decisions to make.
Decisions that will affect how likely you are to get sued, how much taxes you'll pay, whether the government will come after you for misclassifying employees or misreporting income, and more. But most people can't afford a lawyer when they're starting a business.
My mission is to help Oregonians start businesses in the smartest way they can. I will work with you to achieve that mission.

Highly Recommend Joshua Shulman
Joshua represented me when I was nearly hit by a vehicle and went down (on my bicycle) trying to avoid it. I was more than 100% satisfied with his representation, will obtain his services again if needed and do recommend him without any hesitation whatsoever.

In Good Hands
After my accident I was completely overwhelmed with how to go about dealing with insurance companies and medical expenses.

Bicycle Accident
Joshua Shulman represented me for a bicycle accident I was in, in late 2008. The process was fairly long but Joshua kept me very informed with what was going on and gave me much needed advice and comfort in a very emotional time for myself. I really appreciated his patience and calm demeanor.

Joshua Shulman Review 01/03/10
Mr. Shulman represented me when several other attorneys basically said my case wasnt worth their time. I had an automobile accident and opted at the time to not go to the hospital and refused medical which apparently was a mistake. My injury was a deeply bruised tailbone that manifested a short t...
