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!

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 ...

Excellent Work
Lisa packs a punch with her years of knowledgeable experience and her innate wisdom and discernment. It is rare to find someone who is so excellent at their job, and still so warm and personable.

Fantastic
I met with quite a few lawyers before I found Lisa, and I knew right away that she was the one that I trusted enough to work with during custody proceedings. She knows the law and the system so well, and she's so intelligent it's scary, but more than that, I knew right away that she was willing to go...
