Henderson for Judge: A Testimonial

Charles and I met as adversaries in my first personal injury suit, where I represented the plaintiff. This was not long after I cut my teeth as an attorney, mostly representing indigent misdemeanor clients for Squires & Lopez in Portland.

"It's your deposition, you go first," I recall Charles saying when I stumbled a bit with the procedure.

Charles would be an excellent judge. In all our encounters in that case, he consistently demonstrated a confident command of the law and a tireless commitment to fairness and integrity. Oregon needs judges with Charles' qualities on the bench.
