Our company faced a daunting regulatory challenge involving a proposed solar installation on a parcel with significant zoning restrictions. We needed counsel who understood both the intricate local land use codes and the specific nuances of energy project development. Elaine Albrich was recommended to us, and from our first consultation, her command of both practice areas was evident. She didn't just recite the law; she provided a strategic roadmap that anticipated hurdles we hadn't even considered. Her background, including her recent recognition in energy law, gave us immense confidence. Throughout the process with the Portland planning commission, Elaine was meticulous, responsive, and incredibly professional. She translated complex legal jargon into clear business risks and opportunities, empowering us to make informed decisions. Her negotiation with county officials was masterful, securing the variances we needed without costly delays. The project is now moving forward, and we credit its viability to Elaine's dual expertise. For anyone in Oregon navigating the intersection of energy development and land use, her deep, practical knowledge is an invaluable asset. We couldn't have asked for a better outcome or a more dedicated attorney.
