Facing criminal charges or a child custody dispute is a major life crisis. You are facing a turning point.

I have been a legal counselor and courtroom lawyer since 1973. I call myself a legal counselor and courtroom lawyer because I believe in guiding my clients through these stressful experiences while providing experienced courtroom advocacy. My 35 years in the practice of law have led me to believe that clients in criminal and family law situations need an attorney with the capacity to serve those dual roles.

Whether you need quality criminal defense or are facing a dispute with the other parent of your children, I am here to help. I look forward to hearing from you. You can call my firm at (503) 655-0037 or e-mail me to arrange your consultation.

An Experienced Oregon Criminal Defense Attorney on Your Side

I have been a dedicated criminal defense attorney for a large portion of my legal career. For over 28 years, I defended clients in death penalty cases. In that entire time, not a single person I represented was sentenced to death.

Although conviction for the crime you are charged with may not carry the consequence of a death penalty, you can be certain I will pursue your defense with the same vigor as if it did. Any criminal charge is major in your life, and I will protect your rights relentlessly. If you or is someone you love is facing a serious criminal charge, I have the experience and skill to help you develop a powerful defense.

When Your Children Are Involved in Your Divorce Child Custody Dispute

As a father who raised my kids on my own after my divorce, I understand what many parents are experiencing—and I understand the long-term impact parents' disputes can have on their children. I counsel represent clients in a variety of family law cases, providing compassionate legal services to parents who are going through a child custody, visitation or other parenting dispute with their children's other parent.

I strive to help my clients reach realistic, workable agreements through mediation, collaborative law and negotiated settlements. My focus is helping my clients keep their kids from being pulled into the middle of these disputes.

Contact me today to arrange your consultation. I offer flexible appointment scheduling, evening and weekend appointments and I can arrange for a jail consultation, if necessary.
