Ronald W Downs

Ron Downs provided legal representation for me during a lengthy and complicated corporate non-compete claim and subsequent law-suit by my former employer. His thorough understanding of employment law and network of national experts help craft a multi-pronged defense which included researching and pre...senting the case using both Oregon and Kansas Law, the state in where my former employer is based. Mr. Downs represented me, first through the required mediation, and then through several settlement attempts which resulted in finalizing the suit in binding arbitration. His handling of the case was exceptional and was beyond my expectations. His preparation of the case and witnesses as well as the preparation of me for depositions and the arbitration hearing was far superior to what I witnessed of the legal team for my former employer. Mr. Downs reviewed issues with candor walked me though the case and educated me on the processes of the legal system. Always available for counsel, Mr. Downs guided me through the case and provided an ear to listen and support along the way. He is an attorney that went beyond what is minimally required to represent a client. If you are looking for a litigator that will be honest and upfront, who is excellent in the courtroom and who will go the extra mile for you I highly recommend Ron Downs.

Ron started out as my lawyer, and quickly became my good friend. I originally heard of Ron through my father, and when I was involved in a motor vehicle accident in 2011, I asked if he would represent me. Without being too specific to details, every party involved received what was fair. Ron helped m...e understand the process, and provided me a recommended course of action for every decision along the way, but let me know that decision was ultimately mine to make. In the end, I followed every one of Ron's recommendations, and the entire ordeal was painless, and I could not have been happier with the outcome.
