The Sali Robb approach

The lawyers at Sali Robb are committed to ensuring that each one of the firm’s clients receives a quality of representation justifying the trust that client places in them. Litigation in the 2020s involves a wide variety of challenges and opportunities, and requires a legal team with the diverse set of abilities and experience bases to navigate them effectively. The lawyers at Sali Robb meet that definition.

The firm’s lawyers regularly handle complex legal matters with innovative tactics that have led to exceptional results. The firm’s approach was exemplified in a recent murder case involving extensive wiretap evidence. The Sali Robb team developed an attack on the 40-year-old Oregon wiretap statute, contending that the statute violated federal law. The case reached the Oregon Supreme Court, with Sali Robb’s briefing including an analysis of 1960s-era legislative history and references to the Nixon-Humphrey presidential campaign. The Oregon Supreme Court agreed with the defense’s position, and ultimately all charges were dismissed and the firm’s client was freed.

Other cases involve different issues and call for different approaches. Some require skillful courtroom advocacy in jury trials. Others are resolved through careful, sensitive settlement negotiations following intensive preparation. Whatever the situation, the Sali Robb lawyers are ready to provide what their clients need. The results prove it.
