Jensen & Leiberan, Attorneys at Law

I had a couple of bad experiences with attorneys and Margaret restored my faith. She worked diligently to help me in the appeals process, did an excellent job and we won. Margaret also a very compassionate woman who cares about her clients and cares about doing what's right through the legal system. I can't tell you how much I appreciate her as a human being as well is an excellent attorney.

I am currently working with Margaret on an appeal. Anyone going through this process knows how difficult of a time it can be. Margaret has been extremely good at explaining how the process works and what to expect. She clearly has a lot of experience with appeals. I would highly recommend her and her staff if you ever find yourself in need of an excellent appellate attorney.

Ms. Leiberan has become a beacon of hope for what seemed to be an otherwise hopeless situation. I came to Ms. Leiberan heartbroken and confused that I had lost custody of my child after 4 years of proving to be a dedicated and fit parent. I struggled for years to get my request for a simple modification presented and argued before a judge. As the custodial parent acting in the best interest of my child, it did not seem like an insurmountable task and at the very least, I thought the worst that could happen would be for things to stay the same. I never thought in a million years that I would have custody taken away from me and lose parenting time. When I explained my story to Ms. Leiberan, she was compassionate, calm and seemed to recognize immediately that something was definitely not right. I was worried that my case was so unusual that she might not want to take it on, but she was not intimidated by the complexities of the case. Ms. Leiberan has faced numerous hurdles and roadblocks in her effort to get a complete record of the case but she took appropriate steps to overcome the obstacles so that she could write a competent and compelling argument on my behalf. Ms. Leiberan has an impressive writing style that is professional and concise, yet there seems to be a lot of layers to her arguments. She has an ability to accurately depict the most pertinent legal issues without getting the reader lost in the weeds. It is unfortunate that a relatively simple family matter went so terribly wrong that I had to pursue an appeal. I don't know how I could've brought this matter to light at the appeals court level if she were not there to help. She is a strong advocate for the sanctity of law and for her clients. She is the type of lawyer that I hope future lawyers have an opportunity to study and learn from. Although my appeal is still pending and there are no guarantees as to the outcome, I am confident that I chose the right person to represent me and I can take comfort knowing that my arguments have been accurately portrayed to the court.

I hired Deanna Jensen after interviewing several other attorneys regarding my daughter's custody case. I had a terribly difficult and complicated case with a child living on the East Coast and CPS involvement. Ms. Jensen navigated multi-state jurisdictional issues, CPS reports, psychologists, an out of state Custody and Parenting Time Study, and false allegations of abuse with skill and to tremendous effect. I was awarded Custody and I know that there are precious few attorneys who could have prevailed under the extreme circumstances that I was faced with. Deanna Jensen is highly organized, forthright and understands Oregon family law thoroughly. If you have a legitimate legal problem, and you care more about your kids being healthy than "winning" your case, then there is no finer lawyer to be found.
