About
After receiving my J.D. from William Mitchell College of Law in St. Paul, Minnesota in the spring of 2011, and being admitted to the Minnesota Bar later that year, I returned to my home state of Oregon to begin my legal career. By the time I had moved back to Oregon, the glut in the new-lawyer market made it difficult to find a job that I felt would provide the type of professional development I was looking for. My choice became clear. I would open my own solo law practice. Before receiving my license to practice law in Oregon in the spring of 2012, I engaged in standard contract work to gain some experience and meet some new attorneys in the Portland area. Once licensed, I leased a shared office space and began looking for clients. The choice of location proved to be prophetic as I am now a partner in a firm with many of the attorneys with whom I shared my first office. As it happened, the calls I initially received came primarily from residential tenants looking for assistance in various aspects of the landlord-tenant relationship. While not particularly lucrative, I gained invaluable experience that few new attorneys were able to achieve at that point in time. I am now a partner with the law firm of Bodzin Donnelly Mockrin & Slavin, LLP. We've upgraded to a nice office in downtown Milwaukie where we practice family law, criminal defense, property law, and medical marijuana law (explained below). While I still do some landlord-tenant work, my new focus is on medical marijuana law. In February of 2013, Oregon passed a law, to take effect in March of 2014, that would allow individuals to operate medical marijuana distribution facilities, or "dispensaries" as they are commonly called. I now provide legal representation to individuals seeking to establish grow sites or dispensaries. My firm also provides representation to individuals facing criminal charges related to possession, distribution, or manufacture of hemp, cannabis, and marijuana. I love my job and I love working with people from all walks of life. My partners and I understand that your case is the most important case in your life. It is with this mentality that we pursue your case, and we expect nothing less from ourselves and, indeed, from our clients. I look forward to hearing from you.

Kit was more than helpful to my roommates and I when our landlord put us in a very right spot. He had immediate knowledge of tennant law and was straightforward with us about our options, even putting our needs ahead of his own interests. He was easy to talk to, trustworthy, and did more for us than he had to. I WILL DEFINITELY go back to him for future legal advice.
Mr. Donnelly is great! He is very thorough, and willing to do everything possible to get the results you need. He was patient, and kind which I truly appreciated. He answered every question I had, and I left feeling 100% confident I had made the right choice by going to him. I highly recommend him and his firm to anyone.
Didn't respond to second email. Didn't really answer the question. not what I'd expect from a professional. Disappointed. Will change if receive another response.
