PHILOSOPHY

The government has the power to remove one’s children, property, liberty and life. Anyone who has been charged with a crime deserves zealous, intelligent, honest, thorough representation.


Ms. Long is uniquely experienced to guide her clients through the criminal process as she has experienced the practice of law as a prosecutor and a defense attorney.


As a Tillamook County Deputy District Attorney, she prosecuted criminal cases ranging from minor misdemeanor offenses to major, complicated felony matters, including homicides. While at the District Attorney’s office she received specialized training in trial presentation and cross-examination at the National Advocacy Center in Columbia, South Carolina.


Ms. Long only practices criminal defense. She is well versed in criminal law and criminal procedure. Over her tenure practicing criminal law, she has tried hundreds of cases. She is most comfortable when in front of a judge or jury fighting for her clients’ rights.



Ms. Long strives to provide her clients with the best representation. Ultimately, it is her job to hold the government accountable as no one should be convicted of a crime unless and until the government proves the case beyond a reasonable doubt.

PERSONAL

Ms. Long lives in Pacific City with: her husband (Andy); two dogs (Lucy and Rizzo); and a cat with a bad attitude, appropriately named, Felon.
