Portland, Oregon Criminal Defense Lawyer Mark Austin Cross

Portland OR Criminal Defense Lawyer Oregon City Major Felony Defense Attorney

Committed to Protecting the Rights of the Accused in Oregon and Federal Courts

I have over 35 years of experience as a criminal defense courtroom attorney. Since 1973, I have handled over 200 trials and approximately 2,500 criminal cases.

I have been involved in death penalty defense since 1980, and was on a state contract to defend people in capital cases for over 15 years. In the 28 years I have been handling death penalty cases, not a single client of mine has been sentenced to death.

If you are facing criminal charges, contact me now for a consultation. My office is located close to the Oregon City jails, and jail consultations are available.

If your rights, freedoms or perhaps your life is on the line because you are facing state or federal criminal charges, you are probably going through one of the most confusing and stressful times of your life.

Choose an experienced criminal defense attorney to protect you. I have been a criminal defense attorney for 35 years and I am dedicated to providing you with a powerful defense.

Call my firm today at (503) 655-0037 or e-mail me to schedule your consultation. My office is located near the Oregon City jails and I can arrange to meet with you in jail, if necessary.
