Michael Fuller agreed to take our complicated credit card, vacation club case. If it was possible, I would give Michael 20 star’s. He knows the law so well, and explained everything through the whole process. He put my mind at ease, and reassured me that everything would be okay. He was true to his word, and we won our case! I will forever be grateful and thankful that Michael Fuller took our case. Working with him has been one of the best experiences of my life. He is kind, and patient, and cares about people! I highly recommend him! Thank you so much, Michael!

Michael Fuller is amazing! There needs to be more people like him in this world. He stands up for what is right. He is thorough and gets the job done in a timely manner. Thank you Michael for a job well done!

Michael ended up helping me spontaneously with a ruthless debt collector. Although I didn’t qualify for his Class Action, he continued to assist me through what felt like a minefield of communication with them and as a result I’m avoiding a much bigger headache. I’m so grateful for his generous advice and availability!!!

I'm not sure why this lawyer has glowing reviews. I don't like it when I see people portrayed as a hero when money is the real motivation. The first time I contacted him was 3 years ago and he told me I would have a good chance of getting my student loans discharged through bankruptcy. However he would not do it unless I gave him $1600 up front and said he doubted anyone else would either. He did not help me about my student loans and his advice was "just don't pay it". I have a serious situation going on and have contacted everyone from city attorneys and dept of education investigators, the consumer protection bureaus etc. I have an open and shut case, but the one thing I don't have is upfront money and Mr. Fuller would not receive enough from this so it is not worth his while. So while the supposed underdog lawyer goes on fighting huge corporations and claiming to be pro bono, he gets a good settlement from those companies as well as TV publicity. I don't usually go out of my way to write a negative review. I just don't like to see people glorified when they don't really help the underdog. But I suppose my review will be taken down because as a lawyer he can probably get away with it.

Amazing man! What he did for my family with a single email is beyond helpful. He went to bat for me and hit a homerun. Very professional, very direct and works very fast. Thank you sir.

I don't know where I would be without Michael Fuller! When an aggressive trust fund wrongfully took all my money (over an old loan) and I felt hopeless without a voice, Michael was there fighting for me! If not for him, I would have been completely displaced, losing my apartment and probably would not have been able to finish my degree. Honorable people like Michael are worth their weight in gold! I can't thank him enough for making things right.

Michael represented me in a whistleblower case against a major financial institution (sic). The Underdog Lawyer is just that. An honorable man who fights for you, is an excellent listener, communicator, and is savvy in the law. Result: A confidential settlement. Highly recommend!!!

This attorney only does student loans (pro bono) cases, which when I called a week ago was never Stated to me, also I was instructed to call down to the Oregon bankruptcy clinic and fill out an application and speak to attorney and refer Michael fuller which was incorrect and now a whole week wasted playing the waiting game on misinformed Information. Worse experience and terrible customer service.
I would not recommend going thru them,
You would have better luck waiting 3 months to be assigned a random attorney (which Michael brushed me off and stated).
Poor service. Really frustrated ! Needed help and was turned away after tome was already wasted.

Looking for an attorney , going through reviews and saw a response to an elderly women's review after being ignored and your response was THE rudest, uncaring, inhumane response I've ever seen, just had to let you know how I felt and that you would NEVER get my business

**Take special notice of the comment left by the "Underdog Attorney".
As a senior disabled in extremely exigent circumstances, tried to reach out to "Underdog" via his website for an email communication; no response.
I see from the other 1-star reviews similar problems, but what interested me most were the snarky dismissive responses from this self-professed underdog to those who left anything other than a fawning review. Any sincere underdog, who was truly concerned about people, would not be such a reprehensible bully to those who cannot defend themselves.
My worthless opinion is that if an attorney cannot or just plain does not want to take someone's case or help them with their particular problems should just politely say so. It's not THAT difficult to be minimally humane.
For those of you who have got money or can bring in some shiny media attention, you might stand a chance of getting this attorney to represent you.
As with all attorneys, it's about fame, power and money. But for those desperately needing help, when you roll the dice with these sharks, you have to keep in mind there's a high probability you are the one that's going to get bit.
Good luck to all those too poor or disenfranchised, America is on a frightful trajectory. And for those of us at Ground Zero, we're the first to be churned no matter what is at stake; no matter how wronged you've been, there is no "justice" for us.

I spent almost a year trying to work with my cell phone provider to follow through with their promised promotional offer. After hundreds of phone calls, conflicting information from their agents, and no responses to my written letters I finally contacted Michael Fuller. He was knowledgeable and guided me through the process putting in many hours to make things right. He helped me understand that what they did was illegal and he took on the giant with me. I couldn't cut through the corporate red tape myself so he helped me do that. I would highly recommend using him in situations like this. We won our case and even after the win he was able to find fine print in the company's own documents that allowed for an even larger amount than was initially awarded. I am happy with every aspect of our interactions. It is possible to stand up to a corporation, no matter how large!

After getting sick of dealing with Frontier these guys took over for me and did all the paperwork and got me a bigger settlement than I expected. I had to do a bit more follow up than expected and had to correspond with several people, but Mr. Fuller was also more responsive and available than expected. I would use them again.

I'm a retired consumer attorney, myself, and I also worked for a federal judge. Each of my encounters with Mike Fuller, and with Tonkin Torp, convinced me that Mike was the top choice when I found myself in need of a consumer lawyer. Mike has the knowledge, skill, and experience to navigate the judicial waters on a wide variety of consumer issues. His communication is clear and thorough. And he does his best to represent his clients. I highly recommend him!

New Year’s Day my kitchen stove caught on fire and my family and I were instantly homeless. Leaving in only our pajamas we went to a hotel around midnight. We had lost our home in the blink of eye and with no renter’s insurance things looked pretty bleak. The fire was due to faulty wiring in the hood above the stove. Basically, my landlord was responsible for providing safe appliances throughout the unit, which she failed.
The following day she sent me a series of paperwork that said, she was willing to refund me all the deposits and January rent I had paid. The paperwork was to be signed right away and the money would only be released when I signed. The paperwork indicated that I was to release her from all liability and for me to promise not to make any future claims against her. I could tell it would be a big mistake if I signed those papers. She then began harassing me, threatening legal action against me and tried to evicting me. I was overwhelmed with anxiety and hopelessness all the while paying to stay in a hotel.
I drafted a letter and sent our emails to a list of local attorneys requesting them to see if I had a case against her. The only one who responded was Michael Fuller. He agreed to take my case on a weekend no less. He proceeded to represent me and battled my former landlord. He was able to negotiate a fair settlement for me and I was reimbursed all the monies I paid out and then some.
During this charged climate where it seems no one is treated fairly and people don’t seem to care for one another, Michael came through in grand style. It is my opinion that if someone is being mistreated and another person can help, then they should. Being silent is equally guilty. Being a citizen of America, it is my idea, that when the “powers that be” are deliberately preventing another from receiving there entitled liberties. You have the right to fight back and say that is enough! Michael is just that a protector for the minority, the consummate underdog!

While dealing with a very stressful situation I was lucky enough to be referred to Michael Fuller. From the first day we spoke and he accepted my case I had a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. Now that the case is coming to a close I can only say positive things about my experience with this firm! If you require professional legal representation or advice look no further. You will appreciate the comfort of having a team of confident,experienced, talented attorneys looking out for your best interest! I will always be grateful for all the work done on my case!

I went to law school with Michael. He is my colleague and friend. He is also one of the hardest working, down to earth, and compassionate attorneys that I know. Michael takes cases that no one else will take against opponents with deep pockets and “fancy” law firms. His sense of justice is truly refreshing in a world full of corruption and inequity. Oregon is a better place because of this guy! If you think you are getting “screwed over” your first call should be to Michael Fuller.

Our God is an Awesome God!
I know He sent me to you, Michael Fuller, because He touched your heart when you heard my daughter, Claire, share my story, and moved you to say, "Oh! I got this!"
It couldn't get any better!! You have a great big !! Your honesty and integrity are impeccable! Because of you and your awesome "skillabilities" you have turned my mourning into joy. You have given me hope and trust in you as a pure in heart attorney. In all my years and all the times I've had to seek legal help, you top them all...you don't waste a moment of time...! You're compassionate and you made me feel like I was the most special case in the world. Although I could never have afforded you, you took my case anyway. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you

Michael Fuller was willing to help me by taking on an uphill battle of a case even in a situation, where the law didn't necessarily protect consumers. He is really fighting the good fight!

I never knew that it was possible for an attorney to have so much expertise and empathy, all wrapped up in one package. He is honest and caring, but at the same time, surpasses the legal skills of any one of his peers. Everyone deserves pay for their work. But, it really seems that Michael puts more emphasis on your financial welfare, than he does on his own. It is obvious how much he loves his job and puts his all into everything he does. He models a mastery of his profession, that should be the envy of any one of his colleagues.

Initially, contacted Michael out of frustration with my cell phone company and he gave me some solid advice which resulted in a credit to my account. At the same time, my wife was working with a personal trainer who was suddenly let go by (blank) fitness. She had paid close to a couple of thousand dollars and still had more than half the sessions to go. Sadly, the contract she signed was clear in that NO REFUNDS were to be issued. I thought we didn't have any recourse but I called Michael yet again and he took it on!
His time, his work is the reason we got the refund which was fair and just. All for PRO BONO.

Michael posses the character and conviction for protecting the consumer. Very, Very happy with his help! Simply, the BEST.

Wow-A single phone call made by Mike Fuller and a long-term debt in the form of a 'collection' dispute was totally GONE. Secondly, Mike knew of my recent financial hardship as a result not being able to work do to the injuries from a 30 foot fall and provided this exceptional service Pro-bono.
Thanks Again Mike for the help and compassion. !

He is the Best!! Micheal took my case pro bono but still fought with the voracity of an attorney representing a client worth millions. I was being sued by "one of the big guys" in the debt collection business, and they weren't pulling any punches or above using sleazy tactics to get what they wanted. Micheal worked hard on my case and in less than two weeks, he got a settlement agreement that had the debt collector walking away with nothing! I am so happy and would gladly recommend Micheal to anyone; he lives up to the motto of fighting for the underdog!

Absolutely, hands down the most fantastic lawyer I could have ever asked for. Michael, and company handled my case in a very personable, polite, professional, no-nonsense way and his actions show that he is genuinely concerned for the people being taken advantage of and he quickly brought the matter into resolution. Thank you Michael, for having our backs!!! Sincerely, the underdog.

I was connected to Mike for a consumer debt case that was over 10 1/2 years old, and the debtor was attempting to collect illegally. Mike stepped in and assisted in resolving the matter without even knowing me -- pro bono. He resolved it within only a couple of weeks and helped protect my assets in the process. I trust Mike, and could tell immediately that he was dedicated to seeking justice for those unable to afford legal protection. He was prompt, responsive and extremely helpful in guiding me through the whole process. I will always be grateful to him for helping me resolve the matter so quickly, competently and efficiently. I highly recommend Mike!

When I queried Michael Fuller about a legal matter, he answered promptly and courteously, giving me all the information I needed, as if I were an important client instead of someone he didn't even know. He did not stand to gain financially from our exchange. This is really unusual--it made an extremely positive impression, and I wanted to pass that along.

Before getting ahold of Micheal, I called about 15 different lawyer offices just trying to get some legal advice, and each told me they wouldn't help unless I paid a consultation fee. However Micheal asked me some questions and gave me great advice on how to move forward with my issues, without charging me a dime. He also told me to give him a call if something else comes up, and he would give me advice on what to do next.

In 2011 I did a chapter 7 bankruptcy (all debts discharged). In 2013 my old mortgage company sold my discharged loan to another (new) company, who then came after me for payments. I had used Olsen Danes before and they were very good. I contacted them and was referred to Michael Fuller. He was terrific from the first meeting until the end of the case! He has great communication (he even gave me his personal cell# to ensure I was in the loop), gave me sound and pertinent advice, he seemed untiring in his fight for my case. In the end he forced the new company to settle with me. Then thanks to his excellent research and diligent work he found we were within the statue of limitations to sue my old mortgage company for selling my discharged loan. Again he was able to force them to settle!! Thanks to Michael it was an incredible victory for me and a large financial monkey lifted off my back! By the way, all of his staff are extremely helpful and prompt in their service. What a huge relief it is for me to know that there is a lawyer out there who is not afraid to take on the "big corporate firms" for the common man like me. I will gladly use Micheal again for any legal problems that he covers, and would recommend him to any of my family and friends. Thanks Micheal.
Sincerely, Gary G. Greenwood

I agree with all the 5 stars reviews. In addition, I also experienced the following when I seek his advise; follow through, concern about my issue, recommend the best solution for every issues, full with ideas and options in handling the issues, inventive and full with ideas of how to approach a situation, visions of many "what if" scenarios ... He is just awesome, he puts his client first, he cares ...

Truly devoted to the overall success of the case

After a long and tiresome telephonic harassment ordeal that lead to my civil case I was very fearful and apprehensive to push any topics. Micheal was caring of my personal feelings and experiences, mental welfare and always willing to go above and beyond to ensure I was fully understanding of the steps being taken and what would be gained by them. He personally called me with new information and was willing to listen to all my fears and worries regarding the case. After a year of hard work and persistent he was able to bring an end to this horrible chapter in my life with not only a protection clause for me but a settlement of $80,000.

I would trust Mr. Fuller for any future cases I may have as well as referring my friends and family to him for their needs.

I filed a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy some time ago, pro se (which I would NOT recommend anyone do). I received my discharge and was on my way to recovery, at least that is what I thought. A couple of months ago I was served with a summons, a lawsuit had been filed against me by the Trustee of the estate. I had a sense of hopelessness. Then I called Michael Fuller and explained my situation. Michael agreed to represent me pro bono! ~~ Buckminster Fuller (last name is a coincidence) wrote, "We are called to be architects of the future, not its victims." Michael became my 'architect', a skillful legal mind with a clear understanding of complex bankruptcy litigation, and I did not become a 'victim', WE WON! Thank you Michael!
