Alexander F. Sargent - Shareholder

Alex graduated in 2011 from the American College of Greece in Athens, Greece, where he spent the majority of his early life.  After working as an English teacher and translator for several years, Alex moved to the United States and to his birthplace, Portland.  He attended Northwestern School of Law of Lewis & Clark College.  While in law school, Alex received an Outstanding Advocacy award for his work with low income clients at the Lewis & Clark Clinic, in addition to spending a summer studying law abroad in Beijing, China.  He received his law degree in 2015 and admitted to the Oregon State Bar later that year.  Alex joined the firm in October, 2015.
