About

Scott J. Aldworth is a dedicated attorney based in Portland, specializing in a diverse range of practice areas including Business Litigation, Contract Disputes, Employment Law, General Practice, Immigration, and Personal Injury. With a strong focus on employment law and civil rights, Scott is committed to guiding his clients through complex legal challenges, particularly those involving wage and hour disputes, discrimination, harassment, and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) complaints. Believing that the practice of law is a powerful tool for helping those in need, Scott states, “I wanted a career where I could help people on a day-to-day basis. People only come to attorneys when they have a big problem that they are unable to solve on their own—and workplace issues can be among the most stressful.” He recognizes that navigating the legal system can be daunting, often leading to confusion about one's rights. Scott takes pride in demystifying the legal process for his clients and collaborating with them to find effective solutions. In addition to his work in employment law, Scott's civil rights practice is focused on addressing discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation, religion, age, race, color, or disability, including cases under the ADA and Fair Housing Act. He understands the importance of having a competent civil rights attorney by one's side when facing these violations. Scott also engages in general civil litigation, representing plaintiffs in contract disputes and business litigation. With a compassionate approach and a commitment to justice, Scott J. Aldworth is a trusted advocate for individuals seeking legal assistance in Portland.
