Attorney in Salem, Oregon
Experienced Counsel in Family Law Including Divorce, Custody, Parenting Time, Support and Modification
If you have decided to file for divorce or if have are already a party to the dissolution of a marriage, you want an experienced lawyer to protect your interests. You will face many challenging decisions regarding issues such as child custody and parenting time, support, and the division of marital property. You want an attorney who will help you understand your options, so that you make decisions that are in your best interests.
At the offices of Wheeler & Allen, Attorneys at Law, in Salem, I have over 14 years of experience handling all matters related to divorce. Though I have the skill and experience to take your concerns to trial, I will work closely with you to resolve your disputes through mediation or negotiated settlements, whenever possible, so that you can minimize the financial and emotional costs of divorce. Contact my offices to schedule a private meeting to discuss your legal needs.
I represent men and women at all stages of a divorce or family law dispute, from the decision to file through a request for modification of an existing order. At my office, you won't get shuffled over to a paralegal or an administrative assistant. I will personally prepare and file every document necessary to finalize your divorce.
I handle all matters arising out of divorce, including
- Child custody and parenting time. I will help you establish and implement custody and parenting time arrangements that are in the best interests of your children and that protect your rights as a parent. See my child custody and parenting time page for more information.
- Child support. I will review any proposed child support order to ensure that it complies with Oregon guidelines and that it fairly considers all relevant income of both parties.
- Alimony/spousal support. I will work with you to determine whether alimony is appropriate and, if so, the amount, frequency and duration of payments.
- The division of property. I will help you equitably divide the debts and assets of your marriage, including real property, investments, retirement accounts and business property.
For experienced legal representation in a divorce, contact me to set up a confidential consultation. My offices are open during regular business hours and evening and weekend appointments are available upon request. I accept credit cards for payment of fees.
