Katharine West Lawyer Reviews & Ratings - Portland

I began my career in estate planning during my studies at Stanford Law School, preparing wills, trusts, and probate filings as a law clerk in a busy estate planning boutique. After graduating in 1997, I accepted a position with McCutchen, Doyle, Brown & Enersen LLP (now Bingham McCutchen LLP), a large Silicon Valley law firm, where I specialized in commercial litigation, appeals, and hospital/medical staff law. I remained with Bingham for eleven years before moving to Portland and joining the Oregon State Bar in 2008. Since that time, I have returned to my estate planning roots, focusing my practice on guiding individuals and families through the estate planning and probate process.. I live in northeast Portland with my husband, two children, one fiesty cat, one fish, and one frog.  In my spare time I enjoy hiking with my family, running, cooking, photography, and best of all, reading a good book.
