Goode Law Office

My husband and I learned of John when he won a man’s case of whom my husband was incarcerated with. I then contacted John and he was so kind and patient. He went to see my husband the next day and he decided to take his case! We’re still in the process of a decision but I have a lot of faith in John and so does my husband. Amazing attorney!!

Washington County charged my 20-year-old daughter with first degree sexual abuse among other charges, they intimidated my daughter during intake saying she was going to spend many years in prison. From the moment I contacted John by phone I knew that he was the right lawyer for my daughter, his calm and serene voice calmed my anxiety and concern, and when I met him in person and told him about the situation he immediately started to work on my daughter's case. John is an excellent professional attorney who defends and fights for his client with passion and dedication. the resolution of the case was that Washington County dropped all sexual abuse charges without going to trial thanks to his professionalism and hard work in investigating the case, interviewing all witnesses and the outstanding defense he shows in the courtroom. I strongly recommend John if you're facing criminal charges. He's great lawyer and a kind person!

If you find yourself in a situation requiring criminal defense legal representation, I highly suggest you look no further than John Gutbezahl. My loved one, a 31-year-old black man was charged with Murder in Multnomah County. Statistically speaking, before we ever looked into hiring defense, it seemed the odds were stacked against him and our outlook on what was to come was grim to say the least. John was a beacon of hope to our family during this time. He states the facts, sets clear expectations, and clearly cares for the individuals and families of those he represents. His private investigator is badass too! During trial, John blew us away with his trial defense. There are really no accurate words to describe the intelligence, wit, and dedication, and determination of this man. You can guarantee yourself John will defend you with integrity, perseverance, knowledge, analytical skills, and a courtroom demeanor that sets the bar high. John made it absolutely clear before trial that it really could go either way, but he felt we had a strong defense and a good shot and coming out victorious. His truly caring personality made things much less stressful on our family during the scariest time of our lives. When it came time for the verdict 10 jurors voted not guilty and my loved one was acquitted of the charge! Even had we lost at trial, I would have felt content with whom we chose to represent him knowing he really gave it all he had. Some cases are winnable, some are just not. You can rest assured that no matter how daunting your case may seem, John, is the absolute best!

Fantastic mind. Extremely skilled negociater. Fearless trial attorney. Enough said.

John Gutbezahl is one of those people who elevates your opinion of the entire law profession as soon as you speak with him, even if you held lawyers in high regard already. He is personable, kind and whipsmart.
