John S Woodworth

Mr. Woodworth took on my custody case with very short notice. He gave me excellent advice and helped me properly deal with each step in order to ensure the best outcome for my case. He kept my son's best interest as the main focus throughout negotiations, depositions, and trial. Mr. Woodworth's exten...sive knowledge of the law and trial process not only helped me prepare for what was to come, but also helped me understand how to navigate the issues in a way that represented my child's best interest. His communications were always clear, timely, and accurate. I would highly recommend Mr. Woodworth's services. I have consulted and hired several other attorneys to represent me through this long, drawn out process, and John has finally been able to bring resolution to what felt like a never ending battle. I am so thankful for his services and plan on hiring his again for any future legal needs.

Mr Woodworth did an excellent job of investigating and analyzing the facts of my criminal case and the law surrounding it. Which ultimately led to a motion to suppress all the states evidence and ended with the dismissal of my case before the scheduled trial date. I would and do recommend John Woodwo...rth to anyone looking for a great lawyer.

John Woodworth is the fourth lawyer I hired to represent me in a relentless custody battle that has lasted many years. John took my case after I warned him that it would be a very time-consuming, complicated, and sometimes messy situation. Within 30 minutes of being hired, John immediately went to wo...rk, dealing with subpoena and Discovery issues, etc. There were multiple facets of my case that were very personal and excruciating to rehash and John handled these issues with the utmost respect and empathy. Since day one, John has respected me as a fellow parent and has been a strong support for my family throughout this painful process. At every turn and challenge presented during this litigation, John consistently took the high road by staying focused on putting my son's best interest at the forefront of every decision that had to be made. He has presented me with all available information and options, and has stood up for my choices every step of the way. He was a cool-headed and fair negotiator with opposing counsel, and a gladiator in the courtroom when he needed to be. His bold communication style combined with his extensive knowledge of the law make John Woodworth a force to be reckoned with. Using his direct approach in the courtroom, John was able to effectively discredit evidence presented against me, (including a very biased custody evaluation,) and in essence, presented enough facts to the judge to have the case against me shut down for lack of evidence. John's scrupulous efforts not only insured that I retained custody of my son, but he also worked hard to insure we won an award of attorney's fees as well. John was able to navigate an incredibly high-conflict case with authority and compassion. He went above and beyond to not only defend me, but also to effectively manifest a better overall outcome for my family in the long run. As a domestic violence survivor who has hired multiple attorneys in the past, I can tell you that John Woodworth is the only lawyer that I feel has actually taken the time to fully represent me. He has continued to fight diligently for the good of my family and I will hire him again for any future litigation situations. I highly recommend this attorney for anyone in a serious legal situation. After many trials and error previously, and after spending a year and a half working with John Woodworth, I do believe he is the absolute best lawyer one could hope for.

John represented me to recover money lost on a used vehicle purchase. He prepared a presentation for the seller to elucidate the falsified promises of the car's condition upon sale and any other supportive legal factors leading to the reason of the return. The seller was very elusive, however with d...iligent efforts the money was refunded without a trial. John has extraordinary knowledge of Oregon law and accurate prediction of the opposing parties next moves. This was the best experience I've had with legal representation. John will go above and beyond for even the smallest case. Highly recommend.
