Mr. Romano attended Southern Oregon University (formerly Southern Oregon State College) in Ashland, Oregon where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Political Science, with a minor degree in Philosophy. He then received his Juris Doctorate at Willamette University College of Law in Salem, Oregon. While in law school, Mr. Romano clerked for the Marion County District Attorney’s Office and developed a taste for trial work. He was then admitted to the Oregon State Bar in 2000 and began his career as a prosecutor working in Klamath, Coos, and Deschutes Counties. In early 2006, he then opened his private practice in Bend, Oregon with a strong focus on family law and criminal defense. In 2013, Mr. Romano opened an additional office in downtown Portland, Oregon. Mr. Romano has personally tried hundreds of jury trials, tried numerous bench trials, conducted traditional and video-recorded depositions, and has spent literally thousands of hours in courtrooms around Oregon. Mr. Romano stays current with changes in the law by consistently exceeding the minimum Continuing Legal Education requirements set by the Oregon State Bar. He’s a member of the Oregon Bar Association, the American Bar Association, the Deschutes County Bar Association, the Multnomah County Bar Association, the Oregon Trial Lawyers Association, the Oregon Criminal Defense Lawyers Association, the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the DUI Defense Lawyers Association, and the National College of DUII Defense.

"I honestly don't have enough words to express my gratitude for the help I received. Mr. Romano didn't just handle my case, he and his team gave me my future back. Mr. Romano and his assistant Amy were knowledgeable, responsive, and treated me with respect and compassion every step of the way. I am grateful to have found someone who not only knows the law but genuinely cares about your life after it. I'll always be thankful for what they did for me, and I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone who needs someone they can trust. They fought for me when I felt like no one else would, and thanks to their dedication, my conviction was vacated and dismissed."

"I hired Michael Romano for a personal legal case and I could not be happier with the process and the result. The case was resolved in a very timely manner and slightly under budget. His firm is professional and responded quickly to any questions or issues. I highly recommend this law firm!"

"I am very glad I chose Michael Romano and the rest of his law team to represent me. They recognized the stress of my situation and encouraged me by treating me with the upmost respect and professionalism, taking a huge burden off of my shoulders. Mr. Romano is a world class attorney, and having him by your side through a hard situation makes a world of difference. His office manager and lead paralegal, Amy, was paramount in keeping me updated on my case and answering or helping to answer any questions I had. Furthermore, they "keep it real", I never once felt like I was being mislead or told only what I wanted to hear. The team as a whole was forthright and kind. Thank you again Mr. Romano, and the rest of the Romano Law Team!"
