Get to Know the Founder
Tyler Moore
Managing Attorney | Licensed in Oregon, Washington and California (pending)
Tyler has spent his career counseling small businesses and individuals across the western United States, helping businesses and individuals navigate the complexity of legal matters ranging from the foundational agreements that protect a company’s future to the high-stakes commercial litigation that threatens that future. Over the course of his career, he has:
Successfully litigated and resolved disputes in state and federal courts and on appeal.
Drafted and negotiated commercial contracts, business agreements, and transactional documents for deals large and small.
Guided business owners through mergers, acquisitions, and business sales from letter of intent to closing
Advised entrepreneurs at every stage—from entity formation to exit strategy
This breadth of experience is truly unique. Tyler is not just a “transactional lawyer” who has drafted contracts but has never seen whether those contracts hold up under the harsh light of litigation, and he is not just a “litigator” focused on tearing apart agreements and relationships without understanding the attention and care that went into creating those arrangements. This means Tyler doesn’t just understand the law—he understands how businesses actually thrive and the pressures they will face in the future.
