Personal note from Richard Mario,
I am happy to share with you that after 45 years of practicing law, I will be retiring from Buckley Law P.C. on December 31, 2024.
I joined Buckley Law in May 1989 when it was a small firm with six attorneys known as Buckley, Montgomery, LeChevallier & Lindley PC. The firm, renamed Buckley Law in 2011, has grown to a robust team of 24 attorneys and 30 staff handling business law, family law, estate planning, and real estate.
We have worked hard over the years to build a talented group of real estate attorneys at Buckley Law in anticipation of my transition to retirement.
In April 2023, Shareholder and Attorney Chris Fowler joined the Buckley Law real estate practice group. Chris has practiced in real estate for 20 years in Oregon. His clients have included individual real estate investors, small businesses, and some of the largest real estate companies and banks in the country. His experience in litigation and transactional matters have enabled me to transition my role at the firm and concentrate on continuing education for realtors and title companies over the last 12 months. Chris has also taught continuing education classes this year and will be taking over that role in 2025 and beyond.
The Buckley Law real estate team also includes attorneys Jon Phillips and Matthew Borghard, both of whom worked in real estate prior to entering the practice of law. This group of experienced attorneys, led by Chris, will continue to handle the wide range of challenges faced by buyers, sellers, landlords, property owners and managers, and agents in the real estate industry.
I am truly grateful to my Buckley Law partners, colleagues, and clients who have shaped my career. Linda and I are looking forward to having more time to travel and work on our home. And I plan to continue to be on the mountain skiing and teaching.
