Justin Oliver is the Managing Attorney at Divorce Matters and a family-law advocate known for sharp strategy, straightforward advice, and a courtroom presence that’s calm, credible, and difficult to rattle. He represents clients in divorce, custody and parenting disputes, child and spousal support matters, and high-conflict litigation—especially when the facts are complicated and the stakes are personal.
Justin is meticulous, trial-ready, and tough without being theatrical. He focuses on what actually moves a case forward: clear priorities, clean evidence, smart negotiation, and positioning that doesn’t fall apart under pressure. Clients appreciate that he doesn’t sugarcoat, doesn’t overpromise, and doesn’t waste their time. He’ll give an honest assessment of risk, cost, and leverage—then build a plan that protects what matters most.
As Managing Attorney, Justin also helps lead the firm’s standards for client experience, communication, and case strategy. He believes great advocacy isn’t just what happens in court—it’s the systems behind the scenes that keep cases organized, efficient, and transparent so clients can make decisions with confidence. When settlement is on the table, Justin negotiates with precision and purpose. When it isn’t, he litigates decisively. His approach is disciplined: stay focused on outcomes, keep the pressure where it belongs, and never confuse “busy” with “effective.”
Outside the office, Justin is a husband and dad who values directness, accountability, and a well-timed sense of humor. He understands family-law cases don’t just affect paperwork—they reshape daily life. Clients often describe him as steady in the moments that feel unsteady and relentlessly committed to helping them leave the process with clarity, dignity, and a future they can actually live with.

Mr. Oilver is good at what he does.
