The Law office of Walter Weiss, JR.

Portland, Oregon

ABOUT THE FIRM

Mr. Weiss is a trial and transactional attorney, with a wide range of experience from basic personal injury cases to complex, multi-million dollar securities litigation.  Clients include individuals, business entities, families, and even other attorneys.  However, each client is unique, and as such so is every matter.  Mr. Weiss does not take a cookie-cutter approach to his representation of each client.  What may be good for one client and may be easier on the attorney, may not be good for another.  Every matter deserves and gets direct attention.           

The current status of the trial court system requires that an attorney be experienced in all phases of pre-litigation dispute resolution.  Mr. Weiss is experienced in negotiation, mediation and arbitration.  He is also involved in an active trial practice, in many different areas of law.  Mr. Weiss has successfully handled cases involving personal injury, business litigation, commercial and residential landlord-tenant disputes, construction claims (including construction lien foreclosures), contract litigation, property rights, family law, wrongful termination, sexual harassment, hostile work environment, and trust/estate litigation.  Mr. Weiss has an active estate planning practice.  He also handles probate (both testate and intestate estates), and guardianship/ conservatorship proceedings.

Socially, Mr. Weiss enjoys playing and refereeing recreational ice hockey.  He also enjoys golf, fly fishing, and bird hunting.  Of course all of those endeavors cease once college football season starts.  Each fall, Mr. Weiss attends all home football games and several road games of the Oregon State Beavers.

Mr. Weiss is admitted to practice in Oregon State Courts, the United States Court for the District of Oregon and the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
