This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Wonderful Legal Service and Compassion

Ricky Nelson and Casey Baxter provided quality legal services to me during a difficult time. They communicated very well when sharing their expertise of Oregon laws. I have both professional and familial experience with attorneys and find these attorneys to be above reproach, dignified and sympathet...ic. I recommend them without hesitation and would surely seek their advice, if necessary in the future.

Very pleased with his representation.

The team there at Baxter Harder Is hard working and diligent. I always felt that Ricky Nelson was on top of my case and was forward thinking enough to able to guide me through what was an otherwise difficult time. I highly recommend him.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
