30%
Uncontested Divorce 20%

So many divorces are simple enough that the parties should not have to worry about having to go to court to resolve their cases, but still important enough to have proper legal advice before proceeding with or completing their case. I can help with advising do-it-yourselfers and can also take on and complete simple divorces if you would prefer that someone else handle the paperwork for you.

20%
Alimony 5%

Alimony, called spousal support in Oregon, is an important but sometimes confusing part of divorce and separation cases. It is important to know your rights regarding spousal support, and I can guide you through that information for your case.

5%
Wills and Living Wills 5%

While everyone needs a will, it is an easy matter to neglect. I encourage my clients to get their wills done so they can mark that off their 'to do' list. I also do wills for clients who have no other legal needs at that time. Getting your will done is probably faster and easier than you think!

Good listener and hard fighter

Hired Lisa for a divorce proceeding where custody and my ability to see my daughter was involved. Lisa's extensive knowledge of the court system and fighting spirit were key to my ability to keep parenting my daughter. I always felt heard and supported by Lisa. No matter what was going on, I felt ...like I had an ally. Lisa was great at talking me through hard situations and fighting for my rights as a parent. Lisa was great at giving me realistic expectations, but also not budging an inch when the other party is out of line. I cannot recommend Lisa enough!

A wonderful caring divorce lawyer.

Lisa guided me through the divorce process. She was very friendly and understanding, most of all she genuinely cared about my situation. She explained everything clearly, I was well informed throughout the process. I was just so lucky to have her as my lawyer, I couldn't ask for a better one. I high...ly recommend her. SHE IS GREAT!!

The BEST divorce attorney in town!

I had a very difficult divorce and custody battle. I hired 2 "high dollar" divorce attorneys with fancy offices and several legal aids in tow to fight for my parenting rights and settle things. The first attorney actually stuttered while speaking to the judge in court and wasted thousands of dollars.... The second attorney bragged that he was a judge in a different county but spent almost two years and $80,000 to settle my case with very little parenting time for me. During every visit to his office he had multiple interruptions and answered several longwinded phone calls while charging me $300/hr. My ex-wife decided to take my child and move to a location that was 2000 miles away. That is when I was fortunate enough to meet Lisa! She not only stopped my ex from moving to Ohio, she got me custody of my daughter and child support from my ex-wife. Lisa has her act together in court! She does everything to keep conflict to a minimum but fights hard when it is necessary! She will not waste your money and she is organized and so professional in front of a judge! Lisa is simply the best in town!

An Attorney with a heart

By far Lisa is the best Family Law Attorney in the northwest for i had interviewed 3 others before choosing Lisa to handle my case . Lisa is very confident which shows she knows exactly what she is doing. She knows the law and is calm in her approach always encouraging i to do the same . She knows he...r business well and never cowers to her competitor . She will fight for you , no matter how long the other team drags out . If she can handle my outrageous divorce she can handle any ! . Do not look any further , Call Lisa shes a great PERSON !

With you all the way

I was lucky. I found Lisa by chance, at a time when my world had suddenly turned upside-down, and it looked like I needed a lawyer. Turns out, I really did. My divorce was a nightmarish roller-coaster ride which ended in a court trial. That’s not the way we would have had it. Lisa worked with my... ex-spouse’s FIRST lawyer in mediation, endeavoring to dissolve our marriage and arrange custody of our daughter, as amicably and quickly as possible. For reasons I may never understand, my ex backed out of what could have been FOR HER, a very reasonable settlement. She hired a far more aggressive lawyer than her first, and off we went down a long and painful road. Lisa was my advocate through it all. She was always receptive to my input and desires, and I was always informed. For reasons other than a protracted divorce, I now know much more about lawyers than I did when I hired Lisa. The number one complaint clients have against lawyers, is not being informed about what’s happening. I’m still reluctant to say that anybody “won” in trial, since it was all so needless; but with Lisa, I did prevail. If you want an aggressive lawyer to be ruthless out of spite, Lisa might not be the right fit. If you need to protect yourself from an aggressive lawyer hired to be ruthless, Lisa is up for the challenge.
