Portland DUI Lawyers

So who are the good people we help?
A message from our CEO, MacDaniel Reynolds.

Our clients are productive members of society. They are folks with integrity, who know right from wrong, and who generally respect the police. I relate pretty well with this kind of person, because this was me, twenty years ago when I was arrested for a DUI.

I’ve combined this personal experience with the years of professional experience I’ve had since as a prosecutor and a DUI attorney in Portland. I’ve designed the Reynolds Defense Firm to be the firm I wish I could have found to have helped me back when I needed it the most. So what does this mean?

I personally know that a few bad moments do not somehow undo an entire lifetime of being a good person, even though it can feel that way right now. I also know personally how important it is to find the right law firm to help you. So, what criteria should you use to know which firm is right for you?

First, you should be aware that DUI law is always evolving here in Oregon, and there is a good amount of specialized knowledge involved. To get the best representation possible for your case, you want to consult with a firm that just deals with DUI law, day in and day out.

Second, local knowledge matters. If you are facing a DUI charge in the Portland metro area, you will benefit from the help of an experienced Portland DUI attorney. This is because every jurisdiction has its own quirks in how they handle these types of cases, and the more familiar your legal team is with local practices, the smoother your process will be. Similarly, a good Portland DUI lawyer has longstanding experience with both local prosecutors and judges, so they can give you much more targeted advice than someone that practices all over the state.

If you are facing a DUI charge in Portland, Salem, Corvallis, Eugene, or anywhere else in Oregon, it’s essential to seek the help of a qualified DUI attorney sooner than later. Certainly, there are legal advantages to doing so due to the tight timelines involved in these cases. But just as importantly, you will find your stress level come down once you have spoken with a compassionate professional. Once you understand more about the system and your options in it, you will be better able to pivot and make informed decisions.

This is what we do: If you or someone you care about is dealing with a DUI charge, please contact us today. We are passionate about helping our clients find success both inside and outside of the courtroom.

I can’t express enough gratitude for the exceptional service I received from this law firm. From the moment I reached out, Rich and Sayde handled my case with professionalism, empathy, and thorough attention to detail. Their expertise and dedication were evident every step of the way, and they made a complex legal process feel manageable. Communication was prompt and clear, and they kept me informed of every development. I truly felt like I had a team fighting for my best interests, and the outcome exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this firm to anyone in need of legal assistance!

My legal team and everyone with Reynolds Defense Firm were fantastic; they not only handled my case in the most professional manner but they were always supportive and vested in my headspace and how I was emotionally handling everything. As we all may know there can oftentimes be a negative stigma attached to DUIs, the folks at RDF treated me with respect and reassured me that I’m was not merely some common criminal, but that I was a good person who had a lapse in judgement and made a poor decision. I would definitely recommend them if you find yourself in a similar situation. Good luck.

We’re solid, we’re here if you need us, and we are very good at what we do.

We understand all the feelings that come along with a DUI arrest. The challenges it brings – emotional, financial, and legal – can feel overwhelming. You may think that your life and reputation are beyond repair, but we personally understand that one bad moment doesn’t undo a lifetime of being a good person.

Our specialized team of DUI attorneys has over 100 years of combined experience. We believe in providing compassionate support to the good people who need us, and we have helped thousands of people through the legal and personal consequences of a DUI. But we don’t stop there. Our approach goes beyond the traditional role of criminal defense. More than just guiding you through the process, our goal is to make sure you come out of this a different and better person than you were before your arrest.
