Family Law Attorney-Recommendation?

So logically trying to deal with "stepwife" aka "bio-mother of the adorable 10yr old" has failed....yet again. 

Now she won't let us see the child and we have to go back to court. We moved 1200 miles to live down the street from him...again.

 Can anyone recommend a good, b*tch busting, family law attorney in Portland, OR? I have the list of atty's in the area, I am hoping maybe one of you knows someone who may be a little more specialized in fathers rights and someone not afraid to fight hard. 

Re: Family Law Attorney-Recommendation?

  • You may want to check your local board.
  • I agree that this is a better question for your local board. Or, if your work has an EAP, that would be a good place to ask as well.
  • Your local bar association might have a referral line.  They give you the name of 3 attorneys in the specialty you need and then you can go and meet with them for free or low cost.  You can decide if you like any of them or get more names if you like.
  • yeah, tried that. Had some phone consults. I guess I was asking for a more personalized reference. They all sound the same with the exception of a $25 difference in hourly price. I posted on the local board at the above advise.

    In a perfect world I was hoping for: "Hey my Dad is a lawyer in your area, and he has a soft spot for shutting down bitchy ex-wives that abuse their parenting responsibilities!" 

     LOL. Wishful thinking...
