Firm Information
Overview
At Mark C. Cogan, P.C., we provide dedicated criminal defense representation throughout Portland and Multnomah County, Oregon, handling cases ranging from misdemeanor shoplifting and DUII charges to serious felonies, sex crime allegations, Ballot Measure 11 offenses, grand jury investigations, federal criminal defense and record expungement.
Facing criminal charges can be one of the most disorienting experiences of a person's life. The prospect of fines, court dates, or incarceration weighs heavily, and a conviction can leave a lasting mark on one's future. We understand this pressure, and our role is to help clients move from uncertainty to clarity by explaining the charges against them and outlining a strategic path forward.
We maintain a strong, consistent presence in local criminal courts, and prosecutors recognize our commitment to protecting client rights at every stage of a case. We encourage anyone offered a plea arrangement by the district attorney's office to consult with us before accepting any terms, since early legal guidance often shapes the outcome of a case.
Our founding attorney, Mark Cogan, has practiced criminal law exclusively for more than 35 years. He holds an AV Preeminent* peer-review rating, the highest rating through Martindale-Hubbell, and has received Avvo's Client Choice Award, among other recognitions.
Believing that a strong defense begins the moment prosecution does, we urge anyone under investigation or already charged to seek experienced counsel immediately. We offer both in-person and virtual consultations and remain available around the clock, ensuring clients speak directly with an attorney whenever needed. For more than three decades, our community has supported us, and we remain committed to serving it in return. Reach out to us today!
*AV®, AV Preeminent®, Martindale-Hubbell Distinguished and Martindale-Hubbell Notable are certification marks used under license in accordance with the Martindale-Hubbell certification procedures, standards and policies. Martindale-Hubbell® is the facilitator of a peer-review rating process. Ratings reflect the anonymous opinions of members of the bar and the judiciary. Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ fall into two categories – legal ability and general ethical standards.
