Attorney Overview   
 

Ater Wynne attorneys share a strong foundation of knowledge, experience and success, built upon graduation from top universities and law schools, service in federal, state and local government and professional organizations, and experience in corporations and prominent law firms.

Among our ranks is a former counsel to the Securities and Exchange Commission, a member of one of the National Indian Gaming Commision advisory committees, a recent past president of the Oregon Association of Defense Counsel, the former co-chair of the Governor’s 2004 Mental Health Task Force and a former counsel to major West Coast utilities companies. We have earned our reputation for knowing state and local business climates, political issues, policy makers, court and regulatory agencies.  Our membership in international attorney network organizations, Lexwork International and Legal Counsel International, give us worldwide alliances with law firms in more than 25 countries.

Many of our attorneys have advanced degrees in areas outside the law, including marketing, business and public administration. Hobbies run the gamut from fly fishing, wine collecting, home remodeling and child rearing to traveling and moss-appreciation, a must in Oregon.

Clients benefit from seasoned counsel who grasp issues quickly and apply their skills with a minimum learning curve. While we are serious, tenacious advocates, clients find us approachable, responsive and easy to work with.



“When you hire an Ater Wynne attorney, you get somebody who is a leader in their field. They’re going to be creative in finding you solutions and focused on value for the client.”

Doug MacCourt
