Mr Case came highly recommended and now I know why

I spent quite a bit of time beforehand talking with different people looking to find the best divorce attorney around the Salem Oregon area. Mr. Case was the name that was given to me by a couple different people and came up quite often as someone you would want to get if you can, as your divorce at...torney. John and his assistant Terrie represented me through custody battle but also a year down the road with a modification of custody, both of which were highly successful. Everything we did were attempted to do was successful. I should also add , my divorce and custody situation was not at all simple. It involved aspects of a adoption, multicultural issues, lots of assets, and I am the father; which I think for many dads there's a concern about a potential court bias towards the mother. Not only was my experience extremely positive working with Mr. Case and his team, but also it was frankly very reasonably priced. When you get exceptional legal service, you often expect you're probably going to get hosed along the way. That wasn't at all my experience. In a nutshell finding and then having the opportunity to have Mr. Case represent me was one of the best investments I've ever made.

I could've have never been able to get through it without John Case and Terrie

John Case was a wonderful, and great, true and real person to have handling my divorce of 34 years of marriage. He was helpful in every way, and was honest and straighforward in every conversation. He is a wealth of knowledge, understanding in every way, and also saved me from needing to spend larg...e amounts of money to handle a difficult case. I highly recommend John and Terri who helped me navigate a very sensitive situation with genuine understanding and an above-board professionalism. You cannot have a better attorney!

Divorce Attorney

John was a great attorney from the consultation until the very end of the divorce process. He contacted me when necessary and was not wasting my money. He was very conscious of the financial hardship a divorce can cause. He was very supportive throughout the process and helped me feel comfortable dur...ing a difficult time. In the end I got everything that I wanted thanks to John's help. I would recommend anyone going through a divorce to hire John.

Emotional Divorce

I hired John Case to represent me in a very emotional divorce case. Prior to hiring John Case, I had filed for a divorce twice without resolution. I decided it was time to find another attorney. After interviewing several attorneys, I decided to go with John. John was more expensive than my last ...attorney, however it was the best decision ever. John was able to handle all the obstacles that I face before and even more issues this time around. He was able to get me a fair divorce and made sure that the divorce wasn’t dragged out again. I would recommend John Case and I would hire him again in a heartbeat. John was able to help me get through this, so I could get on with my life.

Did not disappoint

John Case came highly recommended by another firm. He was was very clear about the aspects of my case and worked around the hurdles thrown at us by opposing counsel. He had an amazing sense of what I needed and what accommodations I was willing to make in order to reach a conclusion. In the end, whil...e he could have continued to see my case all the way to a court hearing, he was able to get a favorable judgement and saved me a lot of time and money. I would not hesitate to hire him again if need be.

"Mr. Case is smart, thoughtful with his clients and a great attorney to work with when emotions are running high. He focuses on the "goal" when others are getting caught up in the emotions and the myriad of other distractions that inevitably arise in a divorce case. He is an excellent attorney."

Family lawyer | Jan 07

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I recently had a family law matter with Mr. Case. I found that he strikes that elusive balance between strong advocacy and reasonableness (not just the appearance of, but true fairness). Our matter was complicated and could have easily cost each of our clients a small fortune. Instead, I think we're ending with an outcome that was best for both parties and their child. Mr. Case is a very good attorney and I look forward to working with him again."
