Katina R Saint Marie

Katina can not change the law to suit you or your needs, but she knows all the ins and outs of it, and how to best present your case to be in your favor, if you are honest about your case and the circumstances. She’s incredibly familiar with the Lane County Court system and how things operate here.... I am grateful to have had her represent me in my divorce. I was very much a mess and likely not the easiest person to work with during the process, I had a difficult time communicating, and trusting(at no fault of Katina's) but she knows the system well and how to navigate it, and is very trustworthy. Katina was very patient with me and advocated for me and my child's safety when very few others would. We got the very best possible outcome in my divorce and custody case thanks to her. More than I had even asked for. She's well worth every penny, and I highly recommend Katina for DV survivors.

Katina took my case during the initial outbreak of COVID related judiciary chaos and unforeseen delays. What would have normally taken 2 weeks took almost 3 months. Despite the extenuating circumstances, Katina graciously honored our original contract and persisted. She handled things with the utmost... professionalism and compassion. So very thankful for all of her hard work. Felt good to be vindicated!

I have had Katina as my lawyer during a separation that involved my 5 yr old son at that time. A few years of me not giving up on trying to establish some contact with my son and his father not "allowing" me any contact with him whatsoever. Since I made absolutely no progress of my own, and wanted ...legal advise, I called upon Katina for legal consult and advice as the biological mother. Katina knows Family Law inside and out and devised for me the best letter requesting what I ask for. She sent it to Texas where father and son have lived for years since he picked up and moved as I was making progress to reconnect with my boy. Just one simple letter finally made an impact and Katina helped me greatly in achieving my simple goal to at least talk to my son who is now 13 yrs old, every other week. I appreciate Katina and her assistant, Sam, to the highest mark.... 110%
