He had a legal case that was serious and he was given this lawyer. With my best friend's criminal past. I have to say I was impressed by how good this lawyer's practices are. He and his other lawyers working for him do a far better job than Metro Public Defender (and another nameless firm) has done. Joe is an attorney with complete integrity(including his employees and those who work with him) for who he is and what he does. Those who work for his office have also done a very good job for my best friend too outside the courtroom. My best friend got the best outcome for his case. Joe's office and rest Portland/Oregon Defense Consortium have restored my faith in Criminal Defense Attorneys here in Multnomah County, Oregon for sure.

About two months ago, I received an unexpected visit from Child Protective Services (CPS) who…read morewanted to see my 2-year-old daughter. After a brief house call during which the caseworker observed our interaction, she assured me that I had nothing to worry about and that I was a good father. Little did I know, this was the beginning of a series of false allegations made by my daughter's mother. A month later, CPS contacted me to inform me they were requesting no visitation, without providing an explanation. I was told to speak with the CPS caseworker. When I finally did, I discovered that my daughter's mother had lied about the timeline of events regarding our daughter's custody. I was also shown a photo of a bruise that I had never seen in person. Two weeks later, the CPS case was closed as unfounded. However, a week after that, my daughter's mother accused me of sexually assaulting our daughter and used photos of diaper rash to obtain an immediate restraining order against me. She also attempted to modify the parenting plan to prevent me, my two other daughters, and my family from seeing my 2-year-old daughter. Following a recommendation, I approached Roxana Manesh for assistance. Roxana immediately recognized the case as being based on false allegations. She was straightforward, explaining that it could be a challenging case due to the nature of the allegations and CPS's involvement. Roxana is exceptionally skilled, with a background in both criminal and family law. She expertly filtered through the extensive evidence I provided to highlight the inaccuracies in the allegations. She delivered an excellent defense in front of a judge known for siding with the accuser. As a result, the restraining order was immediately lifted, and the modification request was denied. For anyone facing similar allegations, especially involving CPS, I highly recommend contacting the Vern McCray Law Firm and asking to speak with Roxana Manesh.

Roxana is a fantastic active listener, who truly cares; then she takes the facts and information she's received, and then lays out next steps very clearly. She is ethical, and she exhausts all options for the rightful outcome for her clients. I would highly recommend, Roxana, to anybody who is going through family law issues, as she is honest, thorough, and is extremely polished in the work she does for her clients. My son and I thank you immensely, Roxy!

I was being pestered by these people non-stop to write a review about their services working on my…read morecase. I tried ignoring them since my experience was pretty bad but alas... they kept asking for it. So here it goes. I retained James and his crack team of professionals because they showed up first in Google for personal injury attorney. I see thats not the case anymore and should have chosen one of the others that appeared on there now. I didn't call anyone else because I assumed they were the best. Boy was that a big mistake. Shortly after hiring them they sent me to a local chiropractor for a few months. This was okay, they did a great job although it was constant 3 times a week. Once the chiropractor said everything was better James' receptionist said that they would begin negotiating my case with the insured driver. The weirdest thing happened, after hearing weekly or monthly from someone during the first month or two of my case they went radio silent for over a year. I had ideas of the thousands of dollars they were making off of my case and no one could bother picking up the phone and giving me a call. And then it came... a phone call. From the receptionist. She told me that they've been negotiating hard on my behalf and they have reached a settlement. The offer? 50% lower than the national average for someone with my injuries. How do I know this? After 15 months of radio silence I started calling other attorneys and looking for second opinions. They were all too willing to share their opinions of my case and one looked up my injuries and told me the national average settlement amount. Armed with my new knowledge of the injuries and how personal injury law was negotiated, I declined the offer. I refused to take that low ball offer against my own attorneys advice. And I'm glad that I did! They went back to the insurance company and came back with a little better offer. Which I did take. I needed to put this behind me. It had been a long road. Would I hire this same law office again? Highly unlikely. After speaking to the other law offices in the area for 10 minutes, I was armed with much more information and now know they were all smoke and mirrors. Just because someone shows up on google first, doesn't mean they will negotiate your case properly.

Our families case started well before covid. I'll reiterate what other reviewers mentioned as they…read moreare spot on... They call you and return phone calls to get you to sign on the dotted line. They'll harass you to fill out the paperwork and then once you do, you'll never hear from them again. I mean, 6 months went by without getting even a return email. I understand the Corona virus is making business a lot more difficult for everyone but Ive paid my insurance premiums on time for over 20 years. Jim pak promised me service he could not deliver. Our case is still on going and I wanted the wait to write a review but I had the last straw. They're trying to force us to take a settlement that won't even cover all our medical bills or replace my newish family van. Of course we agreed to the fee that Jim Pak charges but that was because we were led to believe we would get, at a minimum, made whole. Now, because I hired these fake attorneys (Jim wasn't even licensed in Oregon until this year) I will owe money for an accident that wasn't our fault. I highly recommend doing your research on personal injury attorneys before choosing these guys. I get an ambulance chaser vibe from these guys and wish I would have done my research. CONSUMER BEWARE!!!
