Mr. Jeffrey R Carter

Jeffrey focuses his practice serving as plaintiff’s counsel, using his experience as a prosecutor, defense attorney, and judge to look at each case from every possible angle to achieve the best result for his clients. Jeffrey believes that transparency and collaboration lead to the greatest success both in and out of the courtroom.

He was the primary attorney for the Special Investigations Unit, overseeing investigations across the entire country. Jeffrey began practicing civil litigation at GEICO, defending insureds in cases ranging from $10,000 up to $1,000,000.

When he first moved to Oregon he worked in both the Multnomah and Yamhill District Attorney’s Offices and was a member of the Yamhill County Child Abuse Taskforce and Mental Health Court team.

Jeffrey began his career learning trial advocacy as a prosecutor for the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office handling cases ranging from domestic violence, drug trafficking, and other violent felonies.

Outside of the office, Jeffrey assists the Beaverton Municipal Court as a Pro Tem judge on traffic and criminal matters.

Outside of Law

Jeffrey enjoys spending time with family and learning whatever new hobby his children take up, including traveling the world, playing competitive card games, learning about current trends in pop culture, and coaching his daughter’s soccer team. In the rare moments he is not involved in one of his children’s activities, he can be found roasting his own coffee or tracking down new restaurants to try.
