I’m working with Kevin Stout. I spent one hour with him, and he clarified some very important information for me. He is kind and courteous. He obviously cares about his clients, and will go beyond the call of duty for them. I highly recommend him.

The other John Richards is a fraud.

Michael Sout helped me with some property matters. He was very efficient and helpful. They were quick to get me in and handled my matters with the upmost professionalism. I highly recommend him.

excellent lawyer

Kevin is honest, kind, and professional. I definitely recommend using his services.

For months we had been harassed and bullied by our landlords - requests for living-essential repairs ignored, belligerent and profane communication, aggressively showing up on the property unannounced… and finally, they tried to unjustly withhold our security deposit.

As tenants, we felt powerless and feared for our safety while at the house. At first we were hesitant to seek legal counsel, but when things got bad I reached out to Stout Law after being recommended to them by a new friend.

We had limited financial resources, but given our situation Michael was more than happy to become our advocate and knight in shining armor. Michaels dedication to professional ethics, conscientiousness, and strong sense of justice gave us comfort in these troubling times.

We learned that there are strict and complex rules in Landlord/Tenant law and that our current landlords couldn’t just do whatever they wanted. At a minimum, we were entitled to a fair security deposit return with an honest accounting. The state of Oregon has laws to protect tenants and rules that landlords have to follow - Michael instantly identified more than a few which applied to our case. With his swift and expert analysis of the situation, he planned a strategy that carried us to an even better situation than we could have asked for.

Even after the official settlement our ex-landlords wanted to give us trouble, Michael went above and beyond to keep everyone honest and guide us to a complete and favorable resolution.

I cannot recommend Stout Law enough for any tenants or landlords in a troubling dispute - these guys are truly experts in Landlord/Tenant law. Michael’s humanistic approach and ethical integrity should be learned by all professionals and those who practice law.

Sincerely,
An incredibly grateful tenant

I came to Michael needing some help with an issue that I had been having difficulty resolving. His ability to listen, understand my concerns, and provide clear, straightforward legal advice was very much appreciated and left me with peace of mind. He is very knowledgeable, caring, and possesses a high degree of professionalism. I strongly recommend him. He is at the top of my list for future legal assistance.

Michael was great to work with, very personable and knowledgeable.
I purchased the company where I worked for 9 years and he handled the whole legal side of it.
He assured me that he would be available to answer any questions and review anything that I didn’t understand and he definitely has followed through with that.
While sitting in his office today I witnessed first hand his passion for doing the right things for his clients and being sure they are treated fairly.
I will be happy to have him on my side should I ever need further legal advice or support.

Thanks again Michael for your help.

I am very grateful for the help I received from Michael Stout regarding an issue with my tenants. Michael grounded me emotionally in the facts of the matter. And, surprisingly, recommended a path of resolution that saved me two thousand dollars in attorney fees!

I was very satisfied with my experience with Stout Law LLC regarding a landlord/tenant matter. I knew I was entitled to legal recourse, but was skeptical regarding the likelihood of ever collecting, even if I prevailed in the case. Michael Stout was able to come up with a strategy that convinced me to move forward, and we were successful. The primary factor that convinced me was Michael's excellent knowledge of all facets of applicable law, and just as importantly, his correct reading of how events would transpire throughout the process. Working with Michael is like engaging an attorney from a prestigious national firm but getting the one on one attention typical of a small firm (and paying southern Oregon rates). Micheal was also very straightforward and honest, and kept me fully informed throughout the process. I highly recommend Stout Law.

I have worked with Carlyle Stout III for over 22 years. I have always found him very effective and fair in dealing with my property management and real estate issues. When I moved to the region, I asked my real-estate profession who the best attorney in town was, and she recommended Stout. After two decades, I do too. He's the best at what he does in the region.
