My experience with Paul Saucy was, unfortunately, EXTREMELY negative. He gave his big "selling…read morepitch" in the beginning of our meeting of how he was going to do his utmost to help me and get whatever it was that I needed. THEN after paying him his $6,500 retainer fee, he went back on everything he said he would do. I had been told by men in my office that Paul was a great attorney. Well, now I realize he's great for MEN, but NOT for women. As I spoke with other women in the community regarding their divorce proceedings with Paul Saucy, theirs were the same as mine---he gave everything to the husbands and totally took advantage of these women. I even wrote a letter to the Oregon State Bar--nothing happened. Paul refused to ask my ex-husband for spousal support, stating "no ex=husband wants to pay alimony." Really, Paul??? He gave our house, cars, the $20,000 camping trailer that I BOUGHT, and a myriad of other things, ALL to my ex-husband. He also knew my husband was abusive and mentally very unstable. I ended up with no more than what I walked into the marriage with. My money had bought many things, including the remodel of our home. The approximate total of all I had invested in my marriage was OVER $50,000. I did not get ONE PENNY out of my divorce. I was completely abused, and taken advantage of by Mr. Saucy. Having a very good education in Psychology, I can easily without a doubt say that Paul Saucy is an IMMORAL Narcissist/Sociopathic/Misogynist/Chauvanist pig, liar and cheater, with absolutely NO feelings of remorse or guilt at taking advantage of ANY female client. So, as someone who was supposed to look out for me, and represent me and get everything equally, Mr. Saucy failed MISERABLY. This man should have been DISBARRED years ago.....

It is impossible to overstate how professional, caring, expert, and thorough Paul Saucy is in every…read moreaspect of his work for his clients. I am, and will always be, deeply grateful for his work on my behalf. He is not cheap, but he is worth every penny and more. His expertise, experience, attention to detail, and organization will not only get the best possible outcome, it will set your mind at ease knowing you have the best possible attorney working for you. Divorce is hard enough, but few attorneys know how to handle truly high-conflict divorces. Paul is an expert. He will not sugar-coat the situation for you, but he will stay several steps ahead of the process, carefully anticipating and managing every step. You will be well represented and you will be believed, which is worth more than money can buy. If I could have read this review before my divorce, I would have hired Paul immediately. Don't hesitate! Paul listened to me. He heard me, he believed me, and he understood what was happening. All of his advice was excellent, even the parts that were hard to hear. Everything he predicted would happen did happen. He was always a step ahead and he quickly responded and managed every aspect of the case. He let me take an active role, always taking my ideas and concerns seriously. When we finally got to court, the opposing counsel walked in and said, "one day I'll be as prepared as you, Paul." Believe me, you want to be sitting there with Paul, not with the attorney who knows he/she is not as good or as prepared! Although his hourly rate is high, Paul actively worked to save me money, for example making quick phone calls saying "read your email!" and hanging up. He was always responsive and his office was supportive and helpful without fail. To further help me save money, he added Shannon Snow to the case. Shannon is smart, sharp, quick, and supportive. She manages tricky situations with effortlessness. Shannon's attitude is "let's take care of this right now." In court she is calm and carefully but with seeming effortlessness asks questions that get to the heart of the situation. In every instance her work brought positive results for me, and when the other side stalled, she continued with constant pressure until we prevailed. Both Paul and Shannon responded promptly to my questions and concerns, allowed me to work as a partner in preparing my case, and always, always, always listened to me and believed me. We won the best possible outcome in my case, and I have peace of mind knowing I did the best I could because I hired the best. Don't wait! Schedule an appointment with Paul or Shannon!

1-Star Review Our…read moreexperience with Mai Vang at Johnson & Taylor in Salem, Oregon was extremely disappointing and, in my opinion, deeply unprofessional. I would not recommend her as an attorney. I was a young single mother for 8 years, and Ms. Vang represented me for approximately ten months in a case involving custody, parenting time, and child support. During this time, the children's father had gone as long as eight months without seeing the children, and prior to that his involvement was extremely limited--at most two hours per week. Despite this history, I was repeatedly told that I had no realistic options other than agreeing to a 50/50 parenting plan by Ms. Vang. She was a big push over during hearings allowing opposing counsel to make the narrative they wanted without objection. Given the significant history of abuse that both my child and I experienced, I requested multiple safety provisions to be included in the temporary parenting plan. I knew Ms. Vang is fresh out of college and chose to give her an opportunity as she assured that she had significant experience with high conflict cases and cases involving narcissistic counterparts. None of those requests were meaningfully considered or incorporated into the temporary parenting plan. I did not feel advocated for, supported, or protected. I felt pressured into agreements that did not reflect the reality of our situation or prioritize my child's safety. Without consulting me, Mai Vang scheduled a trial date after a hearing with the judge and opposing counsel. Then, just four weeks before trial, she chose to withdraw from my case after I expressed a desire to work with a professional experienced in creating parenting plans for high-conflict cases in preparation of the trial she scheduled after my disappointed with her work in the past 10 months. I was left completely on my own, four weeks before trial, to navigate an extremely complex and emotionally charged situation. In my opinion, this was highly unprofessional. I spent thousands of dollars on retaining her and keeping her as my attorney for her to leave me hanging even after providing the worst service ever. She also proceeded with hearings she was unprepared for. She showed up to the court room with ungroomed hair and an unprofessional look with three natural grocers totes full of paperwork. She didn't measure up to opposing counsel. Evidence I had provided was either not submitted correctly or dismissed because it did not meet evidentiary requirements. I was never informed that the evidence I submitted needed to be in certain formats to be accepted she should have done her due diligence and requested the correct court accepted formats. Nor were my witnesses adequately contacted or prepared. In one instance, the judge indicated he would likely approve a no-contact order but not the stalking order as submitted. Despite this guidance, Ms. Vang proceeded in a manner that did not reflect the judge's feedback and failed to present critical evidence effectively. After later consulting with another law firm, I was told that going from zero parenting time to 50/50 parenting time is unheard of. Then withdrawing from a case so close to trial and failing to prepare evidence in this way was highly unprofessional. Overall, I felt misled, unsupported, and poorly represented. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this attorney to anyone involved in a high-conflict custody case or who needs strong, prepared, and proactive advocacy.
