Why Hire a Landlord Law Specialist?

Oregon Landlord Tenant Lawyer: Saving You Time & Money

You may be asking yourself, "why should I hire a specialist in landlord tenant law instead of hiring a firm?" After all, when this dispute resolves, you may need an attorney to draft a will, or resolve a car accident claim, or assist you with any number of other legal disputes.

The answer is -- in-depth expertise and ongoing experience related to primarily representing Oregon landlords.

Early in our career, a friend and seasoned attorney wondered aloud "is it possible for a lawyer to be a generalist and be competent at everything?" In his opinion, it was not possible. He knew that there are far too many laws, regulations and court rules, as well as vast case law, for any person to master it all. He believed, as do we, that an attorney had to specialize in order to know the "ins and outs" of a particular area of law.

For an Oregon landlord, this is a particular problem because the Court requires a landlord to strictly comply with the Oregon Residential Landlord Tenant Act. Small errors are costly and waste valuable time.

A great number of our cases involve cleaning up mistakes by others, including other attorneys. We have provided assistance to attorneys who have committed malpractice. Our firm has been hired by an Estate after its first attorney failed to evict squatters living in the decedents' house. We have been "repair counsel" hired by the Oregon Professional Liability Fund, which is the insurance fund for all Oregon attorneys, to repair mistakes made by another Oregon attorney. And we have advised countless colleagues and friends when they have their own landlord questions and disputes.

At Murphy Law Group P.C., the client always comes first. Since we are not a large firm, we do not take on a large case load and overwhelm myself; rather we strive to provide every client with the personalized representation that they need and deserve. Tenants don't have to go far to find attorneys ready and willing to bring claims against their landlord. That is why you need aggressive and dedicated legal counsel to protect your rights and best interests in the matter. Let our experience and expertise work for you!
