The Oregon State Bar seeks member and public feedback on proposed updates to the Client Security Fund (CSF) Rules. The changes add licensed paralegals (LPs) to the CSF Rules, and make some non-substantive changes to the structure of the ruleset. Please send comments to feedback@osbar.org by Monday, March 31, 2025, and include “CSF Rules” in the subject line.
If your principal office is outside Oregon, and you engage in the private practice of law in Oregon, new OSB Rule of Licensure 5.3 effective January 1, 2025, requires you to maintain malpractice coverage substantially equivalent to PLF primary coverage, unless otherwise exempt. See the Rules of Licensure here.
OSB and our partners are now testing Oregon Law Help, a new website where low-income Oregonians can find civil legal information and free or affordable legal help. During this soft-launch phase, OSB is collecting user feedback to help make the site the best it can be. View the in-progress site here and use this form to share your feedback or suggestions.
