Skilled and strategic advocate for complex business disputes

Brian Epley at Cable Huston provided excellent representation for my company during a challenging commercial dispute with a former business partner. While he has only been practicing for a couple of years, his preparation and strategic thinking were immediately apparent. He leveraged his background, including his honors J.D. from the University of Washington, to build a compelling case. His recognition in areas like Commercial Litigation and Litigation - Real Estate by Best Lawyers is well-deserved, as he demonstrated a nuanced understanding of both the contractual intricacies and the underlying property interests involved in our case. Brian was always professional, explained complex legal concepts in clear terms, and was a steadying presence throughout the process. We achieved a very favorable settlement that protected our core business assets. The only minor critique, and the reason for a 4-star instead of 5-star review, is that during the initial phases, there were a couple of instances where email responses took a bit longer than expected, though he was always responsive for urgent matters. Overall, I would confidently recommend Brian to any Portland-area business facing litigation or needing proactive counsel on complex commercial matters.
