The Law Offices of Michael P Bertholf, LLC

Mr. Bertholf was my public defender hired by the D.a's office in crooked Douglas county after I fired a local attorney. He refused to recuse himsef after I tried to fire him. He never filed my appeal which he lied to me and said he did and then never responded to request for all documents for post conviction. He shows up at trial with dirty shirts with coffee stains. It was so embarrassing. I would not recommend Mr. Bertholf. He is not honorable what so ever. Thank you

This attorney sailed me down the river. He screwed me out of a appeal by lieing to me saying he would file my appeal after 30 days after conviction just to get back at me for trying to fire him because of his incompetent representation. Refused to answer my attempts to contact him during my 54 month incarceration. As your attorney you don't lie than refuse contact because your hurt feelings. If you want abdicate representation then seek a different attorney.

This is probably the worst criminal defense attorney in Jackson County Oregon...I have not witnessed a more inept or ineffective attorney in all my years in the system...At first I wasn't going to say anything but I recently had my dear friend get railroaded by him . Michael Bertolf didn't even show up for my friends motion in court??? Who leaves a client there ...alone ...to fend for themselves?? Michael Bertholf has had so many Oregon State Bar complaints for ineffective assistance of counsel that I have lost count....If you do need a lawyer and pick him....ITS YOUR OWN FAULT

Micheal is extremely experienced. He knows the difference between the truth and a con. I recommend his office 100%. He used his network of contacts to dig till he found out the truth. Thank you Michael Berthoff!

This is the most uncompetitive attorney in the state. He is a liar and doesn't even do is diligence to review the case that he is supposed to be fighting under your behalf. Save yourself from going to prison and do not hire this dump truck. Also this guy will we're shirts with coffee stains to trial and complete embarrassment.
