Ms. Kehoe was my lawyer through a contentious divorce. She was highly professional, very well informed and knowledgeable, responsive, and supportive. When my individual negotiations with my ex broke down and I was unable to communicate with them, I transitioned from consulting to hiring Ms. Kehoe and not only was she able to efficiently and expertly complete my divorce, she did so with a better and more fair result that what I was even asking for independently. I am very happy that I went with her, not only because she helped me pragmatically and legally, but because during an emotionally volatile and difficult time of my life, having her expertise provided a sense of groundedness and emotional support that I needed.
Myah was immensely helpful during a very difficult period in my life. She was sensitive, direct, and honest, and I always felt like I could trust her to have my best interests at heart. I will be forever grateful for her professionalism and kindness, and give immense credit to her and her team for helping me get a workable resolution to an extremely challenging situation. Thank you Myah!
I have worked within the family law field since before going to law school. I have had my own family law practice since January 2009. I am a trained mediator and collaborative law attorney. My experience includes helping self-represented litigants, and litigating divorces, child custody, modification cases (both spousal and child support), domestic partnerships, and name changes.
I fell in love with the Pacific Northwest when I came to visit for the first time and knew I wanted to grow roots here. The people are warm and friendly and we have some of the most amazing outdoor activity opportunities. I love hiking in the Columbia River Gorge, walking around Portland's eastside, and being able to drive out to the coast in about an hour. Great things happen when you live in such a great community.

Knowledgeable, professional, and polite
I perform a fair amount of research when making decisions and deciding on Myah was no different. After consulting with four different attorneys Myah was my top choice and I'm glad I made that decision. She was knowledgeable, wise, and practiced professionalism throughout the legal process. It often takes a team to address an issue and Myah has a great one, her assistant was, much like Myah -responsive and kind. My case was a petition for dissolution (divorce) that was protracted due to the other party being non-responsive. So much so that Myah recommended that I hire another attorney that specialized in cases of this variety. I was happy with her recommendation and it ultimately led to a positive outcome. I highly recommend Myah.Â

Great attorney
Myah was a wonderful attorney to work with. From the initial consultation all the way through finalizing the divorce decree. She gave clear steps, recommended a great mediator and drafted my final documents. Her advice and wise counsel made this difficult process much easier.

Myah is wonderful
I'm so glad I found Myah! She was so clearly capable but was also kind and sensitive - easy to talk to. My divorce situation was not super complicated, but it was still emotional and stressful. Myah made me immediately feel relaxed and safe. She also knew the law inside and out and made sure I fought for every little thing that I deserved. She helped me get a fair settlement. Thanks to Myah I knew to ask for more than I had been advised to by another (expensive) lawyer and even that the law was more on my side than the other lawyer seemed to be aware of. Myah was sensitive to my situation and went above and beyond for me. Highly recommend!

Very Satisfied Customer
I consulted 3 lawyers regarding my custody issue. Out of the 3 Myah was the most impressive in my initial consultation, so I retained her services. I was not disappointed. She was extremely prepared. She kept me well informed of anything and everything in regards to my case. I found Myah to be very professional and she addressed my concerns in timely fashion. Her legal assistant, was also extremely professional, polite and personable. I was pleased with the service Kehoe Law provided. I would highly recommend Myah.

Perfect fit!
I highly recommend hiring Myah Osher. Her proficient understanding of the Oregon law made my legal process simple. What most impressed me was her empathy and compassion. I can not imagine how anyone could of done a better job.

An Amazing Lawyer and Person
As you can imagine, most of the occasions where you need a lawyer are not the happiest or most relaxing moments of your life. My divorce case was no exception. From the beginning, Myah was understanding, patient and professional. She walked me through the process of what would happen and listened to what I thought I wanted. At no time did I ever feel like I was being pressured to do anything or make a decision. I always felt like she had my best interests in mind and that she was the barrier between myself and all the turmoil. Because of her, I was able to finish the process with my sanity intact. Although I hope that I never find myself in need of her assistance again, she would be the first person that I would seek out if I did. There is no one that I would recommend more highly than her.

Myah is a knowledgeable and honest attorney that helped us navigate some very difficult issues.
We worked with Myah on a difficult child custody issue in 2010. She was knowledgeable, candid, and supportive throughout the process. We were bringing the action from another state and her responsiveness and follow up was invaluable to us. We knew every step of the way where we were at and where things were headed, and she didn't sugar coat things or create unrealistic expectations. We appreciated that more than anything. When the case concluded, there were no surprises and we felt like we landed in the best place possible given the circumstances. She was fair, honest, and communicative and we would definitely retain her again.

A real gem
Myah is an amazing lawyer who I hope you have a long working relationship with. She is always there to answer my questions no matter how small or silly they may be. She was very understanding to my situation and feel I owe her more than just the required fee. Thanks Myah!

Thank you soooo much!
I just wanted to say thank you for everything that you and Chris have done for me. Although divorce is not a pleasent experience, you did make it a lot easier for me and I really appreciate the prompt return emails and call backs that I recieved from you. You answered all my questions and I really felt that you were on my side. I really do hope that I won't need your services in the future but if for some unforseen reason I do, I will definitely being calling your office to have you on my side again.

Amazing Customer Relations
Osher Law has been nothing but brilliant and amazing! I don't like to deal with lawyers but going with Myah and Chris was a different experience! Not only were they knowledgeable, but they kept me informed. I like to know what is going on with my court cases and be well versed in the law, they emailed me or talked to me on the phone almost everyday. They answered all my questions and when they didn't know they looked it up and got right back to me. I will never use another law firm again.
