SLR MEMBER SPOTLIGHT:

This month, SLR would like to highlight member firm Tonken Torp LLP of Portland, Oregon!

Tonkon Torp is one of the largest firms headquartered in Oregon, with over 80 lawyers dedicated to a sophisticated business practice. Though our size and capabilities have grown since our founding in 1974, our commitment to community — through philanthropy, advocacy and legal partnership — has grown and strengthened right along with us.

When it comes to running a business, legal issues should take a back seat to strategic solutions. How can the law advance your vision, support your work, and protect both your interests and your progress?

Taking this perspective is what we do at Tonkon Torp. We’re dedicated to thinking like a business, so you don’t have to think like a lawyer. Our team of collaborative, business-savvy attorneys is here to help.

No matter the size or complexity of your business, we bring the right people, the right questions and the right counsel to every client relationship. We support our clients with uncommonly responsive service, pragmatic thinking, straight talk, humor and expert support.

It’s personal, business-savvy legal advice and advocacy, always right-sized to your unique needs.
