I met with Keith shortly after my car accident and I loved how he LISTENED to me, spoke slowly in…read moreways that I could understand (since I'm not an attorney) and gave me all my options and advice he legally could. I chose him as my attorney after being the victim of a car accident resulting from road rage of the driver how rear ended me. I thought since i was the not-at-fault driver that I wouldn't need an attorney because it was pretty straight forward. Quickly I learned quite the opposite. Within about a week of reporting the accident I was sent tons of mail from Geico asking me to fill out a ton of information (keep in mind I'm trying to recover from a severe accident with horrible whiplash and other painful injuries including ptsd). I couldn't even believe the overwhelming amount of paperwork they wanted me to read and handle so I immediately called Keith and told him I would love for him to help me. He took over everything and basically told me I didn't have to lift a finger and he would contact me immediately if I need to know anything. My situation ended up being tricky seeing that I have the worst insurance company out there and the other driver also had Geico. This resulted in Geico not wanting to spend money helping me recover. Keith walked me through the entire process of how Geico deals with these things and what they will likely do (based off of past clients and many other business colleagues who deal with Geico insurance). Long story short, (since there would be so much to explain about why) After tons of questions, Keith giving me plenty of his time through back and forth e-mails, and a few phone calls likely ranging from 20-60 minutes my husband and I decided we just didn't want to deal with nasty Geico and I just wanted to move on with my life and try to put all the accident stuff behind me if possible. We chose to accept the unfair settlement from Geico and move on with life. Keith was extremely kind and generous and gave me a surprise client discount which increased the portion I would be receiving back from the settlement. I'm not saying anyone should expect this but it just goes to show that he is a good man and a good attorney. Even my in laws were shocked when they heard this. They said they've never heard of an attorney doing something like that. Also, his paralegal Elma and the receptionist have always been super kind and prompt in answering my calls/emails/questions/concerns. I highly recommend Keith @ White & Shephard. I also highly recommend any insurance other than Geico :)

We even had to call both offices just to track her down. The Next issue we had was we were told to expect an email and never received it. Then to make matters worse they claimed they sent it on Sept 12 at 2pm but it was sent to the wrong email address. The email address was given during the opening Zoom meeting via chat and apparently she did not record it. When we brought up these issues with Jennifer she did apologize but we had decided to find another attorney. She said her manager would call us but never did. Bring up the last issue is it's impossible to reach anyone at the Beaverton office. And after a few days with no luck. Calling the Salem office resolved the issue I would not recommend this immigration attorney services to anyone and it is overpriced.

I had the pleasure to work with Rich Parker in my bankruptcy case that centered around my private…read morestudent loans. Mr. Parker was very knowledgable about the process and took the time to explain what was happening and what was going to happen. One thing that I really appreciated about Mr. Parker, was the constant communication throughout the bankruptcy process. He was quick to respond to any questions I had and was equally as quick to respond and react with any issues that arose during my case(And if you are reading this and thinking, Yeah, he responded all the time because he was charging you for those emails, that's not entirely true. As a client, you get a very detailed invoice every month from his awesome assistant, Wendi Tibbetts. It shows on the invoice that many times there was no charge for the email communication between Mr. Parker and myself). At the end, Mr. Parker was able to resolve my case to get my monthly payments down to affordable amounts. He also got one interest rate to 0% and the other to 1%. On top of all of that, he was able to wipe out close to $40,000 from the overall amount of my loans. If you find yourself drowning in private student loan debt and don't think there is a way to get any or all of it discharged, PLEASE reach out to Rich Parker to see what he can do for you. The financial quality of my life was changed for the better because of Mr. Parker.

This was handled with due diligence, professionalism and efficiency. Richard Parker responded to all my annoying questions and he responded quickly.

I now have a chance to many things I didn't think I had a chance at, thanks to his skills. I could not have asked for anything more. Thank you, Richard.
