Columbia Gorge Defenders was established to provide all those who are in need of a public defender with the best possible legal defense organization in the State of Oregon. Our attorneys fight passionately for each and every client we represent. We zealously defend our clients with every tool at our disposal from Constitutional motions to suppress evidence to early and intensive investigations.
More than just vast legal knowledge and top notch trial advocacy skills, we believe that the best defenders are supported by staff and investigators that can diligently work each case.
We have Spanish speaking staff in both offices and bilingual private investigators.
We have live legal assistants in the office every weekday — real people who not only answer the phones but also lawyers who will answer your questions. It’s our people and our attention to detail that sets us apart. We work for our clients, not the system.
