This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Mr. Hoover is a despicable liar and has no morals.

If you believe these self-proclaimed comments by Hoover, you're in trouble. What kind of lawyer can handle felony criminal cases, civil lawsuits, immigration, divorce, and even car accidents all at once? Let me expose this fraudster. If you're in trouble now, you'll have two problems if you absolutel...y hire Hoover: his character and morals are extremely poor.

So bad for a divorce

Avoid it for a divorce. Like all lawyers he works for him, to prolong the divorce and bill you the maximum

I dispute this comment as I do not know who it is from. My billing is always reasonable and fair to the clients.

Knowledgeable and personable!

My fiance and I received advice from Greg about my options for post-graduate immigration plans amidst COVID-19. He patiently walked us through the various routes we could take and what we should watch out for. Super nice guy and a pleasure to talk to!

Gregory Hoover, Immigration Attorney in Portland

I had a tough immigration case. I did some online research, and Mr Hoover looked like a good candidate to help me. We set up a meeting in Portland. It turned out the meeting place was a public restaurant in the Lloyd center. Mr Hoover greeted me and led me to a table. The waitstaff there ...appeared to be quite familiar with Mr Hoover. We started discussing my case. I got quite uncomfortable because he spoke very loudly and talked about private details that I did not want broadcast to the world. The waitstaff at the restaurant referred to Mr Hoover as 'that criminal defense attorney'. I would say that Mr Hoover really tried to scare me, telling stories and mentioning deadlines for applying for citizenship. (This was in January of 2017). I agreed to pay $500 for a 'Letter of Opinion'. This was not a good deal for me. I received the letter of opinion, a few days after we had arranged for its delivery. It contained no new or salient information for me and my case. On the basis of the personal interview with Mr Hoover, I decided not to retain him as my immigration attorney. I found someone else, and I am grateful, as that attorney actually did help me gain citizenship without fear tactics or public humiliation.
