We hired BAPA of Portland to help sort through and pack up our 2br apartment, on short notice. They were efficient and thoughtful (cataloging the boxes they packed), making suggestions when needed (most of which I followed!), and listening and checking in with our preferences and expectations. Coor and Nic cared a lot about doing a job they could be proud of *and* one that would meet our expectations. Coor not only oversaw and handled details beautifully, but also masterminded the project and made sure that the big picture went smoothly. It was a 2 day project, and we really appreciated that they took the time to tidy up the space at the end of each shift. I'd use their services again and recommend them to my colleagues (we're two busy professionals, and having this work "made easy" is a relief). Thanks, Coor and Team! read more

Truly concierge service. Literally, working with Coor Cohen and associates is having a "life concierge" for anything and everything you could need. Anytime. Expectations ALWAYS exceeded with respect to timeliness of response, quality of work delivered, exquisite attention to detail, discretion, and most importantly the professionalism and just plain friendliness that my service requests are met with. As an Emergency Physician, my schedule is infinitely random (difficult to schedule around in an "every other Tuesday" or "every Saturday morning" kind of way) and during my workday/night/early hours of the morning the work is a labor of love but also all-consuming and often leaves me completely spent when I get home. Point being, short on time and energy when not at work, and I wanted to spend that time and energy with my wife and enjoying life, not navigating tele prompt menus over the telephone to arrange appointments and services or completing forms and filing paperwork. Even more, I needed to "supercharge" my day-to-day efficiency. (Ever find yourself wanting for a second 'you' to slash through red tape and tasks? This is your answer. Cloning is not yet all hammered-out and perfected, plus all the ethical issues... get a Personal Assistant!) It was actually my wife who found Badass PA of Portland and suggested I contract their service to, among other things but importantly, help me schedule time together, help me to plan surprise dates, getaways, adventures, etc. and to do this, helping me to manage my non-work schedule such as booking appointments, assisting with clerical tasks, running errands, finding other contractors to complete work at home... Coor's protection of and advocacy on behalf of her clients in dealing with difficult people is second to none. I plan to send her in to the dealership as my "negotiator" next time I need to buy a car- that good. Coor also scheduled an appointment WITH my wife to get to know who she is, what she likes, her dietary preferences and needs, dress size, clothing and jewelry sizes, fashion, restaurant, hotel preferences, preferred local boutiques, you name it- just so that she can help me behind the scenes in restoring myself as the romantic man-of-the-world she fell in love with and married! Badass PA of Portland is EXQUISITELY sensitive of privacy and protecting your identity, financial information, personal information, and will NEVER require any information from you that you are not comfortable sharing. That said, over time after earning my COMPLETE trust, I have entrusted them with pretty much all of the personal information I would not entrust to anyone other than my family, my bank, my realtor, my insurance company etc. and couldn't feel more resolutely confident in them. Most importantly, you might be thinking "that sounds like something that must be nice, if you're rich!" SO NOT TRUE! Check out their membership prices and rates. Buy yourself a basic membership with even 2 HOURS of service/month and you won't believe how much they can do for you in 2 hours total service time that month, most of which can be done remotely. CALL BADASS PA TODAY. You're obviously interested if you read this, and they are your new secret weapon. Love this service! read more

I faced a very difficult and potentially dangerous situation with an adult child who lived in a city very distant from my residence. The situation required a constant presence and I was just not in a position to do it myself. The situation was quite complicated at the beginning, and became even more complicated as numerous twists and turns played out. It dragged on for months. Coor and her team were always very professional. They are innovative problem solvers and were able to expedite both simple and very complicated tasks. I was able to feel confident that every moment in time we were doing the best that we could do in the circumstances. We were continually having to reevaluate plans, make new plans, and re-order what the important tasks were. They handled everything from sourcing a property and relocating our child (I just had to sign the lease digitally), furnishing the property, ordering new technology and setting it up, assisting in filings with local government, applications for health insurance, and handling hospitality when needed. They have always been happy to be our liaison and concierge as needed. Knowing that Coor and her team were constantly available and willing to do whatever was necessary eased by stress through a very tense time. I knew that someone was on top of things, when I could not be. read more

I have used Badass PA in multiple realms of my life. I am a small business owner, a person who is striving towards wellness, and generally busy. As a small business owner, having Coor and Badass PA help maximize the quality of my social media, fine tune my profit and loss margin, improve my accounting, as well as my business processes has been extremely helpful. My business has grown, and I feel much more confident in where my business will be in 5 years. In regards to wellness and busyness, I can count on Badass PA to help with simple tasks as well, Aaron helped me break down boxes after we moved, helped me shuffle things around the house, helped me clean out the garage, and having the extra set of hands helped my husband and I get 1000% more done! Lastly, Coor handles my husband's (he works in health care, crazy hours, and does not have a lot of planning time) acupuncture, and other self care appointments. Also we can count on Badass PA to set up a date night, if we can't find time to set up a reservation. The WORTH and VALUE for the cost...have helped my business and my family so much. We still take care of our house and business very hands on, but having the extra help from Badass PA has increased our quality of life! read more

If you need to be stress free and get things done.. trust Coor and her team. I can't thank you enough Coor Cohen for helping me to take care of every little detail on my special day. Coor not only managed my event, but she kept me informed as things progressed. She arrived ontime, was communicative, managed all details and most of all - kept me stress free. My guests were very pleased and she even stayed longer than our agreed upon time to ensure that everything was taken care of. Her company name says it all "She is one badass PA!!!!" read more

Coor and her gang at Badass have changed my life for the better. As a small business owner I've always struggled with marketing and promotion. She has really helped me dial in my social media, brand my programs, and get more organized overall. Coor always has an idea or a solution to my stuckness and she doesn't let me get immobilized by my perfectionism. We get stuff done! Some things I have confidently handed off to her and her staff, others we brainstorm and develop over Skype or the phone. She provides me the support and coaching I've needed for years. Badass lets me focus on the things I'm good at and want to be doing. They take on those tasks I hate or am inefficient at completing. This has given me more excitement, energy for my business as I don't have to struggle with those things that weren't getting done. Thanks Coor! Thanks Badass! You guys rock! read more

Where do I begin!!?....I am currently working with BAPA of Portland with regards to my move from Florida to Oregon. Anyone who has moved knows how stressful this can be, now add across country, two children and doing everything remotely. I found BAPA through a friend and called to see if they could help me secure housing. After only 10 minutes on the phone with Coor Cohen, I felt my shoulders relaxing and was positive that we were a great fit. Since that first day Coor not only went to bat for me , she preformed miracles securing the PERFECT house for my family, not only that it was the second one we even considered !! Before I knew it, everything happened quickly and efficiently, she even had to deal with me out of the country and challenging financial logistics. The process was easy and seamless. Thinking that I would only use a personal assistant to secure housing, I just can't let go of Coor and her amazing work ethic , realistic point of view, endearing sense of humor and uncanny ability to ground me and keep me focused, which is not easily done. As far as I know I am her only client, she is that good. Calls and emails are returned promptly and her out of the box thinking has saved me time, money and worry. I plan on working with Coor and BAPA for several months, and even then will find some way to continue. I recommend this business wholeheartedly, don't hesitate..CALL THEM! You will be happy you did!! read more

BAPA of Portland is a truly exceptional organization. I know I am not their only client, but I certainly feel that way. Attention to detail, responsiveness, quality, professionalism...it's all there.
