Caring and thorough

Randy is an impeccable attorney whose years of experience and knowledge about Workman’s Comp at the policy level made me feel I was in good hands as I recovered from an auto accident. He was caring and took the time to explain all I needed to know about how the process works. I’m grateful to have had... him on my side.

Workers Compensation

I was Injuried at work with a Nation Wide company, I was just a number, I hired another Attorney that wouldn't communicate with me, only told me what she wanted to know, after a year she had to quite because of medical reasons 3 weeks before my final hearing, I went to Mr Elmer, during the first cons...ultation I learned more about the W/C system of the State of Oregon that the year with the other Attorney. Mr Elmer led me through this step by step and we settled with the company. I highly recomend Mr. Elmer for all you needs.

Straight and Honest

I had a lot of questions that I needed answers to. I contacted Mr Elmer for consoltation and he was quick to get right back to me. He explained the answers to my questions in a way that I understood exactly what he was saying. He was straight and to the point. I was very comfortable explaining my si...tuation to him. As it turns out, I don't need his services, but if I were to need them I would definatly contact him again.

A+ Attorney

I spoke with Mr Elmer on 2 seperate occasions, regarding my work related injury. Each time he was willing and able to answer my questions and address my concerns, and each time we determined that legal representation was not needed for my case. Mr Elmer did not need to take the amount of time tha...t he did, speaking with me. He was friendly, understanding, knowledgable, informative, etc... As far as I'm concerned, Mr Elmer went 'above and beyond' to help me understnd why my claim was proceeding in a specific manner. Words cannot describe how much I appreciate the time he took for me and I would recommend him to any of my family and friends.
