We contracted to install a solar panel system in August of 2022. The energy benefits of the solar system worked incredibly well, but the installation of the brackets was substandard and we experienced leaks from November 4, 2022 until KB Law secured an agreement with the solar company to replace the roof under the solar system and reinstall the panels April 2023. The solar company would not discuss any redress besides temporary rubber cement patching that continued to fail until Kenji agreed to represent our interests. He received our documentation, listened to our priorities, connected us to an expert consultant who documented every stage of repair who was eminently qualified to testify on our behalf, advised us with truth and integrity to expect several different scenarios, and then followed through with updates through several months of challenging communications with the company to secure an acceptable and fair arrangement without having to go to court. If Kenji takes your case, you can expect the best possible outcome with expert and realistic experienced advice to guide you every step of the way. We recommend KB Law LLC without reservation. They were a lifeline through what could have been a far more expensive and drawn out process fighting a huge company for a fair outcome.

After observing, and being impacted negatively, by Ms Yazzolino's year's long handling of my family's trust case, which was shocking on so many levels and required a court order to resolve, I will simply state that I would never recommend her to anyone, ever.

This was a highly contested and emotionally exhausting court case that took several years to resolve. Ms. McCarthy's adult children were the opposing party, and they were represented by their own attorney. Ms. Yazzolino was professional, thorough and diligent in representing me through this proceeding. My experience with her was nothing short of outstanding. Ms. Yazzolino went above and beyond, made the process more bearable, and I am proud to say that I prevailed. For what it is worth, this case closed a few years ago. Ms. McCarthy was not a party and had no legal interest in the outcome. For anyone interested in reading the facts of this case for themselves, it can be found at Multnomah County Case No. 19PB05462. I would highly recommend her services. She is compassionate, fair and ethical .

I was in the difficult position of having to find a new attorney after my previous lawyer…read moreunexpectedly passed away, and I had less than six weeks before trial. During that time I contacted more than 75 attorneys and law firms hoping to find someone who could help. One attorney truly stood out -- Jon Friedman. Even though my case was outside the area of law he practices, he spent nearly 30 minutes on the phone with me listening to my situation and offering thoughtful guidance. He didn't rush the conversation and took the time to make sure I felt heard during an incredibly stressful time. That kind of professionalism, compassion, and integrity is rare. It was clear to me that he genuinely cares about people who are seeking legal help and wants his clients to feel understood and supported. Even though he wasn't able to represent me, that conversation left a lasting impression. If I ever need legal assistance in the future, Jon Friedman will absolutely be the first attorney I call. I have no doubt that anyone who becomes his client will have someone who truly fights for them.

Chris was incredibly helpful explaining things to me, he stuck by me for months while I was asking questions, before I even filed.

I would recommend anyone who is considering a Bk to see him, he will not pressure you and is very good at what he does. The level of attention he provides is also phenomenal. Some of these lawyers you can never get a hold of, he responds to me same day almost every single time. Thank you Chris for helping me get my life back. omid

Disappointed. I went to Chris for assistance with a serious financial issue concerning debt and…read morethe IRS. Had my initial consultation and he said he could help. Retained Chris. The bankruptcy process was long and arduous. Not a great deal of communication between us during to process. We started it in March and in July our paperwork was filed with the court. Okay so far, nothing really bad going on. Except, it was revealed to me that he himself was in bankruptcy for very much the same reason we were. That was until we had our initial hearing with the bankruptcy court. My debt was over the debt ceiling for the State of Oregon. Isn't this something that a bankruptcy attorney should know? Of course it is. After the hearing, our calls were not taken and only an email showed up. Need to research the problem. That is it. Meeting with him a week later, it was explained that he knew the debt ceiling and was hoping that the bankruptcy trustee would overlook the amount of debt I had since he slid another client through who exceeded the debt ceiling. My case was nothing but a gamble for him. He was rolling the dice with my financial future, my house and my life. I was then told after liens we placed on my house to come back and we could move forward. Fast forward. Contacted Chris. Provided a lien report for my home and. my current pay information. Weeks went by. Nothing. Followed up. Was told that he had not been able to get to it. Followed up again and this time, was kicked to the curb. Was told that he wouldn't be able to get to me for several weeks and that he was swamped with other work. I had hoped that after the massive fuck up with the filing of my case and the debit ceiling we ran into that our case might have gotten a little more attention. I now have a bankruptcy on my credit, having to. try to recover from the devastating credit advice, and still have issues with the IRS and liens on my house and no relief to show for it. DO NOT USE THIS ATTORNEY.

I was a birth mom in my dealings with B&C…read more It was an open adoption, I actually just left my daughter and her family an hour ago from our yearly visit. I couldn't have had a better lawyer. John Chally was very attentive and understanding with my requests in choosing the adoptive family. He was extremely patient with me looking through pamphlets of adoptive family stories. He connected me through phone calls and meetings. I met a family that I liked, after he further researched the family we found that they lied about some things in their portfolio, which crossed their names off my potential list. He had my back and my daughters best interest in mind. Which you need in such a vulnerable situation like this. If it wasn't for him I would have never found the family that I love so much. He went out of his way to find adoptive parents that fit my kind of personality, lifestyle and open views. I couldn't imagine not having used him and this firm, the adoption went as perfect as it could. Every day I am so grateful for the introduction to this adoptive family and their diligence in making sure everything checked out with them. I've seen my daughter once a year, for the last 7 years. Every year I realize more and more, how lucky we all were to have used B&C. I know in regard to the adoptive family, they loved John so much they used him and this firm again, for their second adoption. When it comes to finding a new family for your child, or when it comes time to finding a new child -- it's not about the money. It is about pairing the two together and doing so with sincere care and knowledge. I'll always be in debt to John for opening my eyes and showing me the most perfect family for my daughter that I was not stable enough to raise on my own. He went above and beyond, he was there for anything I needed and for every question that I had.

Shelly also deserves the same high praise. She was always available to help, and if she didn't have the answer she found it for us. There is a reason they have been in business for so many years. We highly recommend them without any reservation!!

The value of this service is monumental when facing such a major life decision.

She will tell you if it becomes apparent that you require the help of an attorney. Fortunately we did not, though without LeeAnn we may have needed to pay one a significantly higher fee for the same assistance. Bearing in mind that LeeAnn charges flat fees for her services and has no financial interest in a drawn out battle. LeeAnn helped us get our documents right the first time so that our filing was received and divorce finalized within a week of the initial filing.
