Overview
I have been practicing law in Hillsboro and Washington County, Oregon, for over 28 years, since graduating from the University of Oregon School of Law in 1996. As a long-time resident and legal professional in this community, I take great pride in serving the families, individuals, and businesses who call Washington County home. My deep roots in the area allow me to understand not only the legal landscape but also the unique challenges and values of the people I serve.
I am a shareholder with Hillsboro Law Group, PC and lead the firm’s Family Law Team. My practice is dedicated primarily to Oregon family law, including complex divorce litigation, child custody disputes, spousal support, child support, parenting time (visitation), legal separations, domestic partnerships, and domestic violence protective orders (FAPA). I am also licensed in Washington state and provide select representation in several counties. I understand, from firsthand experience, how emotional and potentially overwhelming family law matters can be, and I am committed to providing each client with compassionate, strategic, and effective representation.
In addition to my family law practice, I assist individuals with Chapter 7 bankruptcy matters, helping clients achieve debt relief and financial stability.
Throughout my nearly three decades of practice, I have earned a reputation for integrity, professionalism, and responsive client service. I maintain direct and consistent communication with every client, ensuring they are fully informed and supported at each stage of their legal matter. My colleagues in the legal community and the judges before whom I regularly appear recognize my thorough preparation and ethical advocacy.
Hillsboro Law Group, PC serves clients throughout Washington County, including Hillsboro, Beaverton, Forest Grove, Tigard, Tualatin, Sherwood, and the surrounding communities. As an established law firm deeply committed to this region, we are proud to offer experienced legal counsel with a personal, community-focused approach.
