About Thomas, Coon, Newton & Frost

Thomas, Coon, Newton & Frost works from Second Avenue in Portland and names thirteen people, including the four in its name. It publishes in Spanish and its own page offers straight answers at no cost.

179 reviews at 4.9. It states no fee model in terms we could record, which is unusual for a firm this size, and publishes no case results we could read.

What this firm has earned Every one from a measured value, with the evidence behind it

LFL Verified 2026

Every eligibility gate this firm's state allows us to check has been checked and held: licensure, discipline, entity, website and footprint. Certification additionally requires a score of 70.

4.9 average over 179 reviews

A high rating is easy at low volume and hard to hold at this one. Pillar C scores it against the market rather than against five stars.

Service in Spanish

Published by the firm on its own pages, which is how this was measured rather than assumed from a name.

G1 LicensureNot published by OROregon does not publish an attorney register we can query, so licensure is not verified here. The state's own attorney search is the place to check it.
G2 DisciplineNot published by OR1 of the firm's attorneys share a surname with a disciplined attorney, and for Chris Thomas 1 of 1 decision(s) naming this surname have no searchable text, so they can be neither tied to nor ruled out against this attorney. The decisions that cannot be read are scans without searchable text, so this is a limit of the published record. Nothing here says the firm's attorney is that person.
G3 Entity & officeNot published by OR1 physical location verified on Google Business Profile. We read the Active Businesses register (data.oregon.gov tckn-sxa6), published as open data by the Oregon Secretary of State and could not identify this firm in it: no entity whose name contains the firm's name. A miss there is not evidence that the firm is unregistered, so this gate is unresolved rather than failed.
G5 WebsiteSite has served over HTTPS, a working phone number published, 12 named attorneys published.
G6 Footprint179 public client reviews across 1 Google listing, above the 10 minimum, and the firm's domain has been registered since 2016-04-26, so it has been operating for more than a year

Personal Injury

The firm’s people the firm names its people without saying who among them practises law · 12 more people are named by the firm without a role, so we do not call them attorneys

Also named by the firm

The firm lists these people among its team and prints no role beside the names, so we do not describe them as attorneys.
