John S Woodworth

John Woodworth is an exceptional attorney! He is extremely well versed in the law and the Lane County Family Courts, and was a direct, no-nonsense advocate for my situation. With my son as number one priority, John helped me navigate my options and what a judge would likely decide on each issue if it... went to trial. It’s clear that John is not only a highly skilled, dedicated and trustworthy attorney, but also a genuine person who cares about his clients and the outcomes for their families. I didn’t doubt his abilities for a second. I can’t say enough good things about John! Thank you!

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.

Years ago I was a Tenant filing suit against Deadbeat Landlord. Unlike most Eugene attorneys; John was well versed and knew his facts - was timely and prudent, and charged fair fees (unlike other local attorneys) and even refused to accept overtime and honored the base contract. Any client will be ...impressed by his principles - and is one of the "Very rare" attorneys who places your justice above a paycheck. You will not be treated like a number or a 'walking wallet'. Highly Recommended.

John is a fast, efficient, and competent lawyer if there ever was one. I had a situation involving the custody of my son where his speed of action in filing my papers saved me quite a bit of money and court time. John is very straight forward and will not paint unrealistic scenarios for you. I g...ot the judgement i wanted for a very reasonable fee. Do yourself a favor and consult with this man as one of your first options! John Woodworth is very professional, caring and confident and will boost your moral as such.

John Woodworth recently represented me in a landlord tennant eviction case and I could not have had anyone better on my side. He is kind, professional, incredibly knowledgeable in many facets of the law, and truly cared about me as a client. He was able to look into all of the details of my convolute...d case, actually listen to what I had to say as a client, offer advisement, as well as reach a settlement that was agreeable to all parties involved. John is also a committed attorney that has agreed to see the whole event through to the finish. He is reachable, presents the facts of the law in a manner that anyone can grasp so that you are not left wondering what the possible outcomes could be, and not only that, he is willing to go above and beyond to help his clients. I cannot speak highly enough about him or my experience being represented by him, and if need be in the future I would first and foremost seek his representation. He is not an attorney that anyone would want on the opposing side.
