Zachary J Stern

My life crumbled and fell apart at 22 when I was charged with strict liability statutory rape charges, for conduct that lacked any criminal intent. Desperate and hopeless, I was looking at decades in prison when I first met Zach, but he immediately assuaged much of my worries through his sharp analys...is and strategizing in just the first consultation. My case was fairly complex, involving social media and communication logs, but Zach wasn't afraid of combing through it all to find any and all avenues of attack. Zach also went above and beyond in easing and dealing with my emotional turmoil, while never failing to be professional and honest with me about the potential outcomes of my case. And despite being charged in one of the worst counties to be prosecuted for a sex crime, Zach fought hard and was able to secure an outcome with only probation, allowing me the chance to plan my future and rebuild my life. Zach is unquestionably one of the best lawyers around, and he is truly dedicated to helping people navigate and fight against a system that at times can feel labyrinthine, overwhelming, and unjust. He understands the financial, mental, and societal toll that criminal charges and convictions can bring, and he never fails in treating his clients with the utmost compassion and respect. His pricing was fair, and his services, expertise, and connections are *well* worth it. Due to financial difficulties, he even worked with me to organize a generous payment plan. If you are ever facing serious charges and need a pitbull to fight for your rights and freedom, it would be a mistake not to call Zachary Stern.

Zachary stern is the best lawyer in town no doubt his was with my daddy for like 2 years the fought the state court of appeals supreme court and back to state and ended up beating of of them like the beast he is they can’t face his skills and smartness he is my daddy is out after dealing with a poses...ión of a big amount of drugs and and attemp of delivery with just 18 month probation I m happy to have daddy home thank you Zach

Zach exceeded our expectations as a lawyer and helped our family out tremendously! My husband was unfortunately facing a 3rd DUII charge and looking at a felony, prison time and a lifetime revocation of his license but thanks to Zach and all his hard work and proper counsel my husband managed to only... get charged with a misdemeanor, 8 days in jail, 3 years license suspension and bench probation. Talk about a win! We then had to move onto his PV charge (in a different county) he was facing 60 days and permanent revocation of probation and he managed to get 10 days and maintain his probation. He helped us out in two different counties (Lincoln and Clackamas) if you need a good lawyer that is well respected in the community and will fight for you then I highly recommend hiring Zach.

I was unfortunate enough to get myself brought up on Measure 11 Rob 2, Theft 1 and felony assault charges all totaling more years than I can fathom. Rather than risk everything on a lesser known, less experienced attorney my family pooled the funds and hired Zack. Almost immediately he was able knock... down some of the stress we all faced having these charges hang over me. Over the months leading to the resolution and my constant fear of being sent to prison he went to every length to make sure we stayed in regular contact with any additional information as well as a plan for the upcoming dates and what to expect with each court hearing. Seeing him work made me more confident each time and in the end I had no jail time added besides my initial arrest and they dropped my felony charges to misdemeanors. I personally didn’t want to go to trial and I was very happy to stay out of prison and plea to misdemeanors without any felony charge. Very highly recommended I can’t imagine having dealt with this without him.
