Your Divorce, Made Simple and Respectful
Our Process: Effective, Caring and Private

Considering a divorce in Oregon?

While divorce can be one of the most difficult and stressful events in life, it doesn’t have to be a war in which everybody loses.

As Oregon’s divorce experts, we provide you with a healthy path through this major life transition by combining the advantages of divorce mediation with the option of advice and protection from divorce lawyers.

While I am currently not seeing clients in person at the Portland office, telephone and video-based services are available. I also offer a sliding scale to Oregon families who have lost their income due to the coronavirus outbreak while going through divorce.
