Relieved

"Judson helped me when my house was being put for sale on auction . He stopped it from

happening the day of. He helped me with my bankruptcy chapter 13. I was able too keep

my home and pay off my debit to my creditors. He later helped me with a complicated sale

of my home. I can't say enough good things about Jud and if I could leave him 10 stars I

would. Thank you so much Judson. Sincerely, Sheryl"

Excellent experience working Judson M. Carusone

"We had a great friend who found herself loosing her home after her husbands death and

many years living in her home. She was delivered a notice from the local Sheriff's Dept

that home had been sold and she had six months to Redeem this property. We were

referred to Judson. We called his office and responded to our phone call in quick manner.

He told us exactly how we had to respond and is a quick manner. He told us he could file all

the documents and notifications needed to redeem this property. He discussed the

amount of his fees etc. Judson was very knowledgeable, straightforward and did just what

he said he would do. He was easy to reach and responded appropriately. We were able to

get property back for our good fried and we very much appreciate Mr. Carusone. It has

been a pleasure working with Mr. Carusone."

Best attorney I’ve ever hired

"I heed Judson in 2020 when I felt my home loan status was threatened and I wasn’t able to

properly navigate the process. Mr Carusone was very professional and direct with his

approach, he took the time to listen to and understand my personal concerns. The issue

has lasted quite as while before it was resolved but Judson never wavered or lost

confidence that we would come to a resolution. This next level professionalism and care is

really unheard of today. I would never retain any attorney other than Judson Carusone for

any bankruptcy or real estate litigation. Trust me when I say he really is the overall best

there is."

Exceptional Service

"Judson gave me his full attention on the matters of filing for bankruptcy or not with my

small business. Even though the process of filing a bankruptcy is not pleasant, Judson took

the time to reassure me everything would work out. He provided me with knowledge &

answered any questions I had. Other lawyers I met with prior to Judson did not give me

the same level of expertise. He answered all of my calls promptly & swiftly moved me

through the process. I highly recommend hiring Judson Carusone."

hands."

patience, and listened closely to our needs and questions. His knowledge of the law and

experience in the industry are first rate, and we always felt we were in good hands. I

couldn’t recommend him more highly. Thank you Judson"

"An auto accident disabled me and we were forced into bankruptcy. It became complicated because there was also a law suit with an insurance company that dragged on for over 4 years. Judson Carusone was extremely helpful and patient as this quagmire was navigated, and even helped us find an excellent motor vehicle accident attorney. Highly recommended. "

- 10/28/2021

"I cannot say enough good things about Judson and his office. If you are self-employed, have a business, definitely go to him. We met with five different lawyers before him who did not know how to go in regards to business debts and what to file. We felt Judson was able to answer all of our questions, guide us on what would be most effective and if you're not used to the process he also addressed all of our fears through the process. He is very knowledgeable and professional."

Brilliant

"Judson is one of the brightest people I have ever met. He has sharp intellect and knows the

law inside and out. After an initial meeting I decided that I couldn't find a better person to

represent me. You cannot go wrong in trusting your affairs with Judson. "

- 10/22/2021

"I cannot give this man enough praise in helping me through the most difficult time I have experienced. His knowledge, professionalism, positivity and kindness all made this situation far easier to deal with than it could have been. I had gone to another large firm to begin with and they had taken my $2500 retainer and strung me along long enough that they then told me they had earned those funds and would no longer represent me. So Stephen’s help was all the more needed & appreciated. I would whole heartedly recommend this man’s legal services without reservation to anyone in a heartbeat. Thank you again Stephen"

"Almost three years ago, I found myself in financial trouble. I was overwhelmed, lost, scared, and deeply embarrassed. I also felt a sense of hopelessness when it came to some of my most important life goals including buying a house, adopting a kid, and living a full life. I chose Stephen Behrends because of the positive reviews repeatedly showcasing his compassion and kindness. Everything I read about him was true. Stephen answered all of my questions and calmed my fears in our first meeting. He was dedicated to helping me achieve my goals, walking me through the process, and soothing my anxiety at every step: He was by my side throughout the process. For anyone looking for a kind, compassionate expert to guide him/her through the bankruptcy process, I recommend Stephen. I can't say enough positive things about him. He's wonderful."

His intent was to help us solve our problem. We did not feel rushed, nor did I feel intimidated in any way. In a day where such selflessness is rare, we were blessed by his kindness and professionalism in a time of vulnerability. I would give him the highest marks!"

"I, unfortunately, needed some legal assistance and I turned to my attorney. I had used Steve Behrends about ten years ago and I really appreciated his professionalism, kindness, guidance, and assistance. I have had to visit the office a few times and found the staff to be helpful and knowledgeable. I'm glad they are there to help me through some difficult times."

- 8/16/2012
"I recently had the pleasure of retaining the legal services and representation of Mr. Behrends. I have never been a fan of attorneys before but my experiences with him and his associates have given me a whole new perspective. He was very professional and courteous and walked me through my legal needs as well as informed me of all the requirements that we would need to meet together to resolve my issues. He worked with me throughout the entire process and is currently still there as my attorney even after completing my legal obligations. I would and will highly recommend him and his associates to anyone in need of attorney services."

Patience and Excellence Personified

"Jud represented us in a foreclosure prevention case that he took over after our first

lawyer retired. It was a long 8 years and a very hard-fought battle, but Jud was with us every step of the way and got us to an acceptable settlement. If I had to do it again, Jud is

the only lawyer I would ever consider hiring."

Always Does the Right Thing

"Mr. Carusone won for us against an out-of-state, high-priced attorney by being a better

lawyer, researching case histories and doing the right thing. An amazing human being,

father and husband, we were lucky to find him!"


- 6/14/2015

Ethical and Committed

"I was losing everything because of 9/11, and my then retiring attorney brought Jud in to

save the situation I was in, which was complicated by an adverse proceeding in BK Court.

Not only did Jud prevail in the proceeding, but he went on to win all of the litigationists'

appeals all the way to the 9th circuit court. He did this by being ethical and taking the high

road, out-smarting and out-working the litigator at every turn. To this day, he is

complemented by other attorneys for this land-mark case that even caused Oregon law to

be changed. I am a business owner and have had many attorneys over the years, but Jud is

by far the most understanding, capable, balanced, intelligent and problem-solving

attorney I have ever known. I would recommend no-one above him."


- 6/14/2015

"When the economy crashed and I was at my wit's end. Trying everything I could think of to protect myself from financial despair. And I didn't know what to do. I then found Mr. Behrends, if it weren't for him, I would be in ruin. With his guidance, he helped me protect myself and my family. I truly believe he HAS my interest at heart and recommends anyone who is needing guidance to check him out. You will be VERY pleased with this honorable man."
