Great lawyer!

Mr. Burgett has helped me with various trust and estate matters, and also some issues relating to my rentals. He is prompt and courteous, and always does an exceptional job. i highly recommend him.

Mr. Burgett an excellent lawyer

Living out of town, I had some eviction business I needed taken care of and contacted Mr. Burgett to assist me. He was very knowledgeable about the process and was in constant contact with me. He was courteous, efficient, and got the issue solved for me very quickly. I appreciated the fact, althou...gh a more minor legal manner, he made me feel like an important client and like he was taking my case seriously. I would highly recommend Mr. Burgett as an attorney and will be using his services again should I need any legal advice.

Very impressed with Paul Burgett

I have used Mr. Burgett for all my legal work since moving to Oregon. Owning multiple properties on the coast, I thought it best to have a local attorney to handle all my legal affairs. Mr. Burgett was recommended to me by multiple community members, and I am glad I was directed toward him as my at...torney. From writing letters for me, to evictions, to taking tenants to small claims court, Mr. Burgett has been an asset to my business. He is very responsive and gets back to me in a timely manner every time I contact him. He is knowledgeable and has exceeded my expectations in every way. I would highly recommend him for any legal needs one may have.
