Best Landlord Attorney Around!

We used Mr. McCarty to handle our Landlord/Tenant rental agreement contract issue and eviction. He did so much background research and had everything so well prepared for the trial on our issues that we didn't even need to testify. Each argument that the defendant had was either thrown out or became... a null topic because of Kevin's conscientious and dedicated research that he presented to the judge. If you need an excellent attorney to handle your issues as a landlord, I would strongly recommend you get Kevin to be your attorney and not have to go against him! He is the best around. I feel even the judge was surprised at his knowledge and understanding of all the laws and ordinances for Oregon and Deschutes County. Thank you Kevin!

Happy Landlord, thanks to Kevin McCarty

Kevin recently represented me in an eviction case with a difficult commercial tenant. The tenant is also my ex-spouse whom I have family law issues with as well. Kevin was very thorough and really understood the complexities of this unusual situation. He was responsive, fast, extremely professional a...nd helpful and also was considerate of my budget concerns. I will definitely use his services again!

Great work. Reasonable Rates. Doesn't waste time.

I would recommend Kevin to anyone looking for real estate related legal advice. He helped us resolve an issue with an obstinate landlord and property management company with grace and professionalism, with a minimum amount of time, effort, and $ on our part. Highly recommended. Thanks again Kevin!...

thumbs up

We were able to gain custody of our grandchild with the very professional assistance of Mr McCarty. Mr. McCarty was honest and responsive.

Tough divorce case.

I will recommend Kevin McCarty to any of my friends or family, needing legal counsel. Kevin represented me in a contentious divorce. The opposing side drove the costs well beyond anything I had envisioned. This however, was our only option, considering the alternative of concession. And would have b...een much higher for me had I gone with a larger, more expensive firm. Kevin's was very accessible and kept me informed, he had good advice when things were reasonable and handled crazy in stride, rolling up the sleeves and playing hardball when we were backed into the corner. His easygoing and personable style, small office and friendly staff were what I was looking for, and received.

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.
