I was born in the mountains outside of Wolf Creek in rural Josephine County. I grew up in Ashland and am a proud graduate of Ashland Middle School and Ashland High School.. I left the Rogue Valley for college and law school at the University of Oregon. After law school, I worked as a judicial law clerk at the Oregon Court of Appeals for the Honorable Ellen Rosenblum, who is now the Attorney General for the State of Oregon. I then took a job at the state public defender's office, where I represented hundreds of criminal defendants and further sharpened my legal skills. I loved my job, but I always missed Southern Oregon. I am proud to offer excellent representation in all of Oregon, with offices in Ashland and Portland..

John grew up on his family's farm in Spiritwood, North Dakota, and graduated from Kindred High School in Kindred, North Dakota. He then immediately fled the abysmal winters of the Bison State for the sunny climes of Hawaii. There, he attended Hawaii Pacific University, and graduated with a degree in Marine Biology.. After graduation, he moved back to the mainland, with the intention of attending graduate school. A strange series of events led him to manage a pest control company in Portland, Oregon. From there, a car accident and a stroke of luck landed him in an attorney’s office, who eventually suggested he look into the law as a career change.. John decided to attend Lewis & Clark Law School, in Portland. During his first year of law school, he was a Pro Bono Award recipient, and received a prestigious Public Interest Law Project scholarship. He used his scholarship to work for WaterWatch of Oregon, which allowed him to protect Oregon’s water rights and to work on drafting legislation. In his second year, he was selected to join Lewis & Clark’s Jessup International Moot Court team, which won Best Brief at their regional competition and fourth place in the international rounds (the highest placing U.S. team). He also began a clerkship at Kahn & Ifversen Attorneys, LLP, where he served as a Certified Law Student and handled various criminal cases. Upon graduating he was awarded, in addition to his Juris Doctorate, a certificate in Criminal Law and Procedure.. To John, helping people through one of their most harrowing experiences gives him a great feeling of pride. The combination of his love of helping people, and of trial practice (which he focused on in his course work) makes him an effective advocate for his clients.. In his spare time he enjoys cooking, fishing and learning to play the ukulele.

521 SW Clay Street , Portland , Oregon 97221
Practice Areas: Criminal Defense
I have been a trial attorney for 17 years, practicing both criminal defense and civil litigation. I regularly try cases in state and federal court in both Oregon and Washington.. One of my strengths and my favorite part of practicing law is relationship building. I take great pride in the “customer service” component of my job. My client advocacy goes beyond court appearances and negotiations. It is the personal connections I make with my clients that distinguishes me from other lawyers.. I am personally involved in every stage of a case, from strategy and investigation, to motion practice to alternative resolutions like mediation and, ultimately, jury trial if an alternative resolution is not possible.. I began my career as a Multnomah County Public Defender, where I represented thousands of clients charged with every type of criminal case, and gained extensive trial experience.. Prior entering private practice, I was an attorney with a large insurance defense firm where I handled complex multi-party civil cases in the areas of personal injury, construction defect and real estate disputes and gained valuable insight about how large insurance companies and their law firms handle cases.. In my former life, I was a stand-up comic, winning the Portland Comedy Competition in 2000.. When not practicing law, I enjoy spending time with my husband Nathan and daughter Georgia and volunteering with a variety of non-profit organizations in Portland.

If you’re in trouble, or someone you care about is in trouble, I’m here to help.. The government has an enormous amount of power. Our criminal justice system is designed to overwhelm the individual and produce guilty pleas. The United States has just 5% of the world’s population but we incarcerate almost a quarter of the world’s prisoners.. I can help balance the scales. I believe in individual rights, compassion, and putting people in a position to be their best selves. I will listen carefully to your priorities, and will always be honest with you. I am committed to giving each client complete and clear counsel, every step of the way. I am an experienced trial lawyer, use creative strategies, and fight to get the best possible result for each and every client.. I also work to make the criminal justice system more fair and humane. I'm proud to serve on the Oregon State Bar's Uniform Criminal Jury Instructions Committee, the Oregon Criminal Defense Lawyers Association's Legislative Committee, Oregon Justice Resource Center's Amicus Committee, and ACLU's cooperating attorney panel.. I look forward to talking with you.

Ed Strand, a former Deputy District Attorney was military trained in investigations, and has over 30 years of Criminal Law experience. He has both prosecuted and defended criminal charges. This experience has provided him with insight re defending those charged with crimes as to investigating the varied incident circumstances, evaluating the factors and developing varied solutions for thoughtful resolutions. This balance of course includes in depth discussions with clients so as to include their informed thoughts in reaching rational and well reasoned conclusions as to the best courses of response.. Ed’s life experience has given him an understanding of the apprehension of persons facing the fear and concern of their situations. He finds often people are relieved upon their initial contact to learn matters are not as dire as their imaginations have created.. Knowing the applicable laws, including defenses, evidentiary rules are important but for developing defenses and attacking state allegations more is needed. The attorney with the broader life experience will generally have more tools for understanding and competently challenging and predicting the tactics of the prosecution and their witnesses. Ed will take your telephone call and discuss your questions and concerns. He will not charge you for this time as he determines whether he could best help you or whether he will suggest other courses for your matter. These conversations will be absolutely confidently and will most probably be useful for better understanding what might be expected, including if appropriate, discussion of probable and possible responses. He will make an appointment to meet with you at a mutually selected location.
