I joined Zimmer Family Law in May of 2016. I obtained my undergraduate degree from Iowa State University in 2011 with a Bachelor of Science in Marketing. In 2015, I received concurrent Juris Doctor and Master of Business Administration degrees from the University of South Dakota in Vermillion, SD.. While at the University of South Dakota, I spent my time participating on the Moot Court Board, Trial Team, writing for different publications, and working as a Graduate Assistant. I also clerked during law school at the Federal Public Defender for the Northern District of Iowa in Sioux City, Iowa, as well as the Environmental Law and Policy Center in Chicago, Illinois.. After graduating law school, I decided to head west to launch my career here in Portland, with an emphasis in family law. I understand that many clients are going through a very challenging time and I will provide trustworthy, compassionate, and hardworking counsel. I will treat all issues with the same determination and work hard to ensure the best possible outcome for my clients.. My personal interests include live music, heading to the movies, participating in local trivia nights, and spending time with friends and family, including my mischievous cat, Duke. I am also a film and tv buff and when I moved out to Portland I appeared as an extra in both Portlandia and NBC's Grimm!

I have a decade of experience handling Washington and Oregon family law cases and feel honored and lucky to have learned from the best of the best. I bring that wealth of knowledge to my practice but what truly sets me apart is my accessiblity to clients, attention to detail and approach to resolving cases in a peaceful manner.  I give my clients straight answers and the support they need to reach negotiated settlements.. Each client and family are different and I recognize that for some, a negotiated resolution is not possible and in those instances, I provide competent and effective trial advocacy.. I also offer flexible payment options to clients so may be able to offer services to those who cannot afford high retainers. Please think of me when you know somone in need of the services I offer..

When I first meet a client, he or she is often coming to me at the most vulnerable time in their lives. The client may be overwhelmed, worried, angry, stressed, and unsure of what the future will bring. The part of my practice I enjoy the best is watching that client change throughout the process; sometimes so much so that the person I first meet is hardly recognizable when compared to the person sitting across from me at the end of their case. I like knowing that the person who leaves my office was better off because I was involved.. Whether in court or in settlement, I will be the most prepared person in the room, which means not only involving the right people, such as CPA’s, financial advisors, business evaluators or psychologists; it also means having the tough conversations with my clients. I will always be honest with my client, even if what I’m saying is not what the client wants to hear. My goal is to settle every case that comes through the door because in my experience, clients and families typically have better outcomes when a settlement can be reached. However, I am not afraid to go to court when necessary and I have litigated several complex family law cases, which my adversaries know about me.

I grew up in Portland, Oregon and graduated from the University of Oregon School of Law in 2002. I have many years of experience helping people through family law cases, including divorces and custody disputes. I have always been drawn to family law because I have a passion for helping people through difficult situations. Divorces and custody battles can feel overwhelming and confusing for people going through them, which is why I do everything possible to help people find the solutions they need and give them peace of mind. I approach difficult situations with compassion, and my number one goal is to help people solve their problems and get them to a better place financially and emotionally. If people were to describe me, they would say I’m a strong advocate for my clients, and also courteous, honest and practical.. I am married, I have two children, and in my free time I love fishing, fixing the toys and gadgets that my young children break, and exploring the outdoors in unique environments. Ask me about the best stocked lakes in Oregon. If I’m not busy helping clients, you might see me with my family waiting in line for the new Star Wars films or enjoying a glass of wine at one of Sherwood’s numerous amazing vineyards.

Firm: Lisa M. Naglins

24111 NE Halsey St. Suite 205 , Troutdale , Oregon 97060

Practice Areas: Divorce & Separation

I have practiced family law in the Portland area (Multnomah, Clackamas and Washington Counties) for over 33 years. Raised in Portland, I graduated from Marshall High School, Warner Pacific University and Northwestern School of Law at Lewis and Clark College. My first 27 years of practice were in SE Portland, and in 2021 I moved my practice to Wood Village to provide my clients with an improved client-focused experience. I enjoy working with clients from both Portland and the surrounding communities, like Clackamas, Oregon City, Happy Valley, Milwaukie, Gladstone, Canby, Gresham, Wood Village, Troutdale, Damascus, and Sandy.. I realize that facing a family law case is intimidating, and sometimes downright frightening, especially if you have not been in that situation before. You will serve your interests best by seeking appropriate legal counsel and information as early on in any family law situation as you can.. Some of the most difficult cases I've encountered are those where a client comes to me after important hearings or deadlines have passed, and it is too late to completely salvage their case for them. A lot of people don't know that you do not necessarily have to retain or commit to an attorney in order to meet with them and obtain legal advice and their professional opinion on your situation. A very rewarding portion of my practice is meeting with family law litigants for one or a few times, to assist them with DIY filings, so that they have some important information and knowledge needed to make it through their case without having an attorney retained for the case.. I think it serves every potential client well to provide them with honest and up-front information about their case for the better. That is the best "Thank You" I could hope to receive!

Firm: Bier Family Law

8705 SW Nimbus Ave. , Beaverton , Oregon 97008

Practice Areas: Divorce & Separation

I have been practicing family law almost exclusively since 1990, and in 2007, I opened Bier Family Law. We are comfortably situated in Beaverton with ample parking and a calming view of Koll Center Wetlands, where we see clients in a variety of difficult circumstances and treat each person with the utmost of care and respect.. I love my job. Family law allows me to exercise diametrically opposed skills: I hand-hold and counsel people through perhaps the roughest emotional time of their lives while actively safe-guarding their current and future interests.  As a client advocate I also play the role of negotiator both in and out of court.  Whether protecting my clients' custody rights or parenting time, or advocating for a fair agreement in issues of support or regarding the division of assets, I do everything within my power to do what’s right by my clients.. I welcome all inquiries for an initial consultation, which allows prospective clients to decide whether the match is a good one before retaining me.  During the consult, I hear details of the case, and provide a legal overview as well as a projected estimate of the cost. There are often both tears and laughter at this meeting. Getting started is the hardest part, but picking up a phone is relatively easy. If you need sensitive and effective legal advice or help in a family matter, call and make an appointment to see me.
