Truly concierge service. Literally, working with Coor Cohen and associates is having a "life…read moreconcierge" 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!

We hired BAPA of Portland to help sort through and pack up our 2br apartment, on short notice…read more 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!

Well let me tell you! We had Steve with The Task at Hand come out to our shop to help us get organized and that is exactly what Steve did. Not only did the shop look amazing but just having a more organized environment helped to raise our teams spirits, it also helped us to become more efficient and productive. If your life is busy and you feel like you just don't have enough time in a day, it would be extremely wise to give Steve a call. I highly recommend The Task at Hand!

Her methods are logical and she works quickly and efficiently. She is also a lovely, highly intelligent and creative person.

Treat yourself to a session (or more) with her - your life will feel free-er and refreshed!
