Recording laws in Oregon: what you need to know.
Oregon uses a hybrid consent rule under ORS 165.540 — and the difference matters if you suspect you're being recorded or watched.
Phone & electronic — one-party
For calls and electronic communications, one participant may record. You cannot legally record a conversation you are not part of.In-person — all-party notice
For in-person conversations, everyone present must be specifically informed before recording begins (ORS 165.540(1)(c), upheld by the Ninth Circuit in 2025).Violations are a Class A misdemeanor — up to 364 days in jail and a $6,250 fine — plus civil liability. If you were not given that required notice, a professional sweep confirms whether a device is present and documents the evidence.

Surveillance rarely announces itself. These are the subtle tells our Oregon clients notice most often.
Information only a few people knew is somehow leaking out
Clicks, echoes, or volume changes on your phone line
Wall plates, outlets, or smoke detectors look slightly moved
Unexpected gifts or new décor from an unknown source
Radio or TV interference near certain spots in a room
Unfamiliar vehicles parked nearby for long periods

With more than three decades of hands-on TSCM experience, Michael Peros is one of the most accomplished counter-surveillance specialists in the United States.

What people are saying
Three decades of high-stakes cases — in the words of the people we protected.
Thanks, Michael, for discovering an illegal hook-switch bypass in our conference room — a bug that cost us billions. Even when the company couldn't be saved, it kept Lorenzo out of the airline industry for good.
Peros uncovered over 65,000 illegal intercepts. That evidence led to the case being thrown out — and earned praise from the U.S. Inspector General's Chief Investigator.
Michael Peros, our White Knight, saved us from malicious prosecution when we were wrongly charged with our child's murder. Exposing the illegal microphone hidden in our bedroom was key to prevailing — all charges dropped.
Michael saved me $3M in legal fees and protected 12 other defendants. He uncovered illegal wiretaps and a hidden “Brady Bug” in my office — what's considered the largest illegal wiretapping case in U.S. history.
Michael found a TK-400 Japanese audio bug hidden behind my desk. He saved my billion-dollar company — the greatest TSCM counter-surveillance engineer there is.
Thank you, Michael Peros, for saving my professional horse track from financial disaster by exposing 13 illegal wiretaps on the phones.
If any of this sounds familiar, it's time to reach out.

Who Needs Bug Sweeps in Oregon?
Oregon's economy spans technology manufacturing, agriculture, healthcare, and a growing financial services sector in Portland. Intel's largest global campus is in Hillsboro; Nike's world headquarters is in Beaverton; and Adidas North America operates from Portland — making the state a significant hub for product development, marketing strategy, and competitive intelligence discussions that are actively targeted by both domestic and international actors.
Oregon's timber and agricultural industries, while mature, involve significant land, water rights, and commodity contract negotiations along the Willamette Valley and coastal regions. Portland's growing biotech and life sciences sector adds pharmaceutical IP risk, particularly around early-stage clinical strategy and FDA submission planning.
Oregon's political environment — a perennial battleground between urban and rural interests on major land use, energy, and environmental policy — creates elevated surveillance risk for lobbyists, legislators, and advocacy organizations. Our Oregon clients include technology executives, consumer brand company managers, life sciences founders, and prominent attorneys in Portland and Eugene.
Frequently Asked Questions — Bug Sweeps in Oregon
Is it illegal to record someone without consent in Oregon?
Oregon is an all-party consent state under ORS 165.540. All participants in a conversation must consent to being recorded. Recording a conversation without the consent of all parties is a criminal offense under state law and carries both criminal penalties and civil liability. If you suspect unauthorized surveillance in your home, office, or vehicle, a professional TSCM sweep documents the evidence and supports law enforcement action.
How much does a professional bug sweep cost in Oregon?
$800–$2,500 for residential sweeps; $1,500–$5,000 for commercial offices. Vehicle sweeps typically run $500–$1,200. All Bugged sweeps use law-enforcement-grade equipment and include a written report. Call for a confidential quote specific to your situation.
What does a professional bug sweep include?
A complete TSCM sweep covers RF spectrum analysis to detect active transmitters, physical inspection of walls, outlets, fixtures, and furniture, non-linear junction detection for dormant electronics, infrared and lens detection for hidden cameras, telephone and data line analysis, and a full review of networked devices. You receive a written report documenting findings and any evidence collected.
How long does a bug sweep take?
Most residential sweeps take 2–4 hours. A mid-size office or suite runs 3–6 hours. Larger facilities — executive floors, law firms, or multi-room commercial spaces — may require a full day. We work around your schedule and can sweep after hours or on weekends to maintain complete discretion.
What should I do if I think I'm being bugged in Oregon?
Stop discussing anything sensitive in the suspected space immediately. Do not move, unplug, or rearrange objects — maintaining the scene preserves evidence. Contact a certified TSCM specialist right away. If a device is found during the sweep, law enforcement can use it to trace the source. Every engagement with Bugged is fully confidential.
