R Grant Cook

High School and College

I grew up in Stafford, Oregon. I attended Lakeridge High School and went on pursue my undergraduate studies at the University of Oregon and finished up at Oregon State University.

Law School

​I attended Willamette University of Law from 2002-2005. I won Willamette's First Year Appellate Competition, which gained me automatic entry into Willamette's Moot Court. I also wrote for the Willamette Law Online -- U.S. Supreme Court section. Along with my doctorate of jurisprudence, I graduated with a certificate from Willamette's Dispute Resolution program from which I was awarded high paper for my review of the alternative dispute resolution (ADR) program in the United States District Court for the District of Oregon. While attending law school, I clerked for in-house counsel of Kettle Foods, Inc. and also worked as a small-claims mediator for the Marion County Circuit Court.

Post-Law School​

Following my graduation from law school, I clerked one year for the Hon. Robert Selander, then the presiding judge of Clackamas County Circuit Court. I was admitted to practice in Oregon in 2006, and have since developed a broad range of legal skills and experience in both civil and criminal forums. As a trial lawyer, I have successfully represented all kinds of clients from all walks of life.

Jurisdictions Admitted to Practice

​I am licensed to practice in the State of Oregon, the United States District Court for the District of Oregon, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and the State of Washington.
