Who answers the phone.
Two partners and an associate. Whoever you speak to first is who does the work.
Partner
Margaret Calder
Business and real estate
Margaret founded the firm in 2004 after eight years at a large downtown practice, with the idea that a small business deserved the same care as a large one, at a price it could see in advance.
She has read more commercial leases than anyone she knows, and still enjoys it.
Partner
Daniel Wynn
Disputes and employment
Daniel joined in 2009 and became a partner in 2012. He has tried cases in state and federal court for twenty years, and spends most of his time making sure they don't need to be.
His first question on every new case is the same: what would a good outcome look like for you?
Associate
Imani Brooks
Wills and estates
Imani writes the firm's wills and trusts, and takes families through probate. She came to the law after ten years running her family's restaurant.
She believes an estate plan should be readable by the people it is for.
Sir, When our landlord tried to pass a new roof on to us, Margaret read the lease twice and found the clause that said otherwise. We never went near a courtroom.
R. Alvarez, Southeast Portland
Sir, Daniel told me what my case was worth on the first call, and he was right to within a few hundred dollars. I have never been given a straight answer so quickly.
K. Osei, Beaverton
Sir, We put off our wills for ten years. It took one afternoon, and the documents read like plain English. I wish we had done it sooner.
J. and P. Lindqvist, Lake Oswego
