My first experience with an attorney was a number of years ago when I was getting divorced (before I attended law school). I felt rushed and disconnected when I met with the attorney - as if he had better things to do. He seemed irritated if he had to spend too much time explaining things to me, and he billed me exorbitant fees for every little thing he did. I vowed that when I became an attorney, I would provide personal and affordable legal services, as well as always treating my clients in a personal and civilized fashion. To that end, I can proudly say that I always do my best to provide my clients with the individual attention they deserve. I personally handle all of my clients' legal matters from start to finish. I meet with clients as many times as needed to fully discuss their options and needs in the process. If bankruptcy is not the best option, I have a number of colleagues to whom I regularly refer clients for specialized help. Some clients may find it difficult to come in to the office, such as elderly and single parents of small children, so I often meet with them in their homes. There is never an extra charge for personal attention. One flat fee, no matter what occurs. That's the way it should be, and that's the way it is at my office!. I was born in Seattle, Washington and raised in Anchorage, Alaska, I enlisted in the U.S. Navy after high school, where I served four and a half years as a Hospital Corpsman at various duty stations on the west coast. I served several more years enlisted in the U.S. Naval Reserves during college. I earned my commission in the Army National Guard after graduating from the Oregon Military Academy. Prior to attending law school, I was employed as a caseworker for the State of Oregon for ten years in Beaverton.  I have five children (three teenagers still at home) and one grandbaby (so far), as well as a lazy pug and a feisty English bulldog.. During law school and after graduation, I worked as a workers' compensation attorney for both the injured worker and the insurance companies (not at the same time).  I didn't care for the contentiousness and hostility of that type of alw, so I began handling bankruptcy cases and found I loved it.  Bankruptcy is a win-win: I'm able to help people get out from under their financial problems and they're happier for the resolution!  In 2017, I'm adding will and trusts to my existing bankruptcy practice (primarily because so many bankruptcy clients over the years have inquired about that service, but also to expand my practice now that all my children are out of elementary school).

I handle a relatively smaller number of cases and provide very individualized attention to each of my clients. I never lose my professional objectivity in analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of a case. I will listen carefully to a client, then lay out, in plain English, the various options available to them. I will weigh many factors when rendering an opinion as to the best way to proceed, including which judge has been assigned to your case, the county in which the case has been filed, the reasonableness of the lawyer representing your spouse/partner, the financial resources available to each side, recent appellate caselaw which pertains to your case and the likelihood of success. My practice is limited to the tri-county area (Washington, Multnomah and Clackamas County). I have been practicing law for 41 years, almost exclusively in the area of family law.  I have won custody cases in which almost everything seemed to go against my client. I am adept at articulating the winning argument, but am also careful to advise my client of the risks involved before proceeding. I usually try to work out a settlement to save my client the expense and emotional turmoil of trial, but if I believe the other side is not willing to negotiate in good faith, or is making unreasonable demands, I will fight tooth and nail for my client in court. In turn, I will tell my client if I believe he or she is being unrealistic or unreasonable or is at risk of having the judge order them to pay the other side's attorney fees. I have a relatively low hourly rate, given my many years of experience. I can afford to do this because I do not have the kind of overhead many downtown lawyers do. If you or a loved one is in need of a knowledgeable, caring and affordable family law attorney, please call my office for an appointment today.. DISCLAIMER: Users of Avvo recommendations should note that any result that an endorsed lawyer may achieve on behalf of one client in one matter does not necessarily mean that similar results can be obtained for other clients
