Don't let his modest office fool you

In my case the insurance company offered me a next to nothing settlement on a storm claim . The insurance company was totally unreasonable and was not afraid to breach Oregon Law. After I signed up with the Tapper law firm , we filed suit and the dynamics changed , I was very pleased with the ...settlement that Clint negotiated for me . This was in addition to his fees. would I hire Clint again ? .........ABSOLUTELY Dean Hogrefe

Clinton Tapper Helped us get all our out of pocket costs back!

We worked with Clinton Tapper on an insurance claim dispute and were very pleased with the experience. Clint guided us through each step of the process with clarity and professionalism. He was especially helpful in setting expectations—his timeline estimates were spot on, and his knowledge of the key... players, including the right mediating judge to select, made a real difference. In the end, he was able to get our out-of-pocket costs covered, and we were very happy with the outcome. Thank you Clint!

Excellent

I should preface this by saying that my wife and I are in our forties and have never sued anyone or retained a lawyer in our lives, but we were in a situation where we had no choice. We took a leap of faith with Tapper Law, and we got lucky. Throughout the process, Clinton Tapper was attentive to a...ll of the details and documents we gave him, he was always accessible, and he was upfront and honest in all of our discussions. He didn't sugarcoat anything or make false promises; he was direct and at the same time he was always approachable. Clinton was good at breaking down legal processes and concepts so that a layman like myself could understand everything that was going on, each step of the way. In the litigation process Clinton demonstrated complete mastery of his profession; citing precedent cases, thinking one step ahead, being prepared with the facts and evidence, and being able to separate relevant material from the irrelevant. Clinton also had a strong familiarity with the opposing counsel, mediators, and judges, which speaks to his experience in the field. We settled out of court and could not have done it without his representation. We are very satisfied with his legal services. Clinton Tapper is a one man wrecking crew. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone in need. A heartfelt thank you to Tapper Law Firm.

Great Experience with Tapper Law Firm

I had a nightmare scenario where a tree fell on our house and insurance was dragging their feet paying for repairs. Clinton Tapper logically and methodically set us up for success, and ultimately we got a very favorable outcome. He was extremely honest and straightforward throughout the entire proc...ess. He brings a wealth of experience to the table and I can confidently recommend him highly.

You Can't Always Get What You Want

We engaged Clint Tapper when our insurance company denied what we thought was an obvious covered water damage loss. We wanted vindication, a big fat check and we wanted it yesterday! What we got, due to Clint's wise and persistent actions with opposing counsel, expert witnesses and us, is the very be...st outcome with the given circumstances. He is honest, expert, very intelligent and brilliant in cross examination; but what was amazing and so refreshing is how he fiercely pursued our best interest. I recommend Clint Tapper w/o reservation. He's the best!
