Excellent attorney, a true class act
Michael Vergamini recently represented me in my domestic relations case, specifically obtaining an immediate danger order and a custody/parenting time modification to protect my children. This case was very complex and stressful, yet Mr. Vergamini fought tirelessly to protect my children, he did n...

Simply the Best
Mr. Vergamini fought for me so hard that when we lost, he appealed the case and changed the law. Now, if another person is ever in the same situation I was in, they will not have to go through the same hell I went through.

Amazing job
I had a complicated custody case that involved a long history with other lawyers. Michael was able to cut to the chase and get me custody. He did an amazing job and I would recommend him to my best friend. Even my ex wanted to hire him.
Michael D Vergamini's Lawyer Endorsements
"A true genius! I am so incredibly grateful I had the opportunity to work with Michael. He is extremely intelligent and knows the law like no one else. An absolute phenom in the courtroom!"
"Michael Vergamini is a highly skilled appellate advocate and trial attorney, a rare combination. He is a true advocate who is not intimidated by opposing counsel, but is unwaveringly professional and kind. He is exceptionally knowledgeable in the areas of family law and juvenile dependency. He also brings his rich, multifaceted education and his vast legal connections to his practice, always using his impressive background and considerable intelligence to benefit his clients to the greatest extent possible."
"Michael Veramini is a very intelligent and effective attorney. I have collaborated with him on several cases, and to assist me in my own cases, I frequently seek his specialized, unique knowledge and perspective. I recommend Mr. Vergamini."
"I endorse Michael. He is a highly skilled attorney that is well respected in the legal community."
"I have worked with Michael several times and I am consistently impressed by his level of advocacy for his clients. Michael takes on difficult complex matters and handles them with intelligence and an eye for obtaining the best possible results for his clients."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I have worked with Mr. Vergamini on several matters and have found him to be knowledgeable and professional. Mr. Vergamini is an excellent trial attorney and does a great job for his clients. He has a results oriented approach and is consistently able to resolve cases prior to trial. I have recommended several clients to Mr. Vergamini and will continue to do so."
"The only bad thing I have ever heard about Michael was from someone who lost to him. Michael fights for every client and every child like they were his own family. I have seen other lawyers with twice his experience stop him in the courthouse to ask his advice. Simply put, I would pay him to represent my mother. Coming from a lawyer, that means a lot."
"I endorse this lawyer’s work! Mr. Vergamini is a brilliant attorney who works diligently in preparation for litigation. He also has a fantastic voice, the kind of voice other lawyers try to emulate. His command of the courtroom is natural and unaffected. A born orator, Mr. Vergamini is definitely a rising star in Oregon!!!"
