Putting the Best Interests of Children First

Shielding children from the tension and disputes between parents is a top priority at Yates Family Law, PC, in Portland. Divorce is damaging to the lives of the children when their mothers and fathers engage in a bitter battle. Custody of your child is about your child’s quality of life

You do not have to resolve child custody disputes in a courtroom. We want you to make decisions that benefit you and your children now and after your divorce or other matter is concluded. Contact us at 503-505-6009 or toll free at 888-899-4319.

An Oregon Parenting Time Lawyer Helping You With Peaceful Resolutions

At Yates Family Law, PC, we do not promote the use of children as pawns to gain an advantage in a dispute. Going before a judge is expensive and can be unsatisfying. When either parent steps inside the courtroom you no longer control the decision-making process that impacts your kids. We strive to resolve disputes concerning children outside of the courtroom.

Mediation is not only an opportunity to take control, but also help facilitate a better relationship with the other parent. That foundation of cooperation helps to resolve many future problems and reduces the likelihood of returning to court. Peace and common understanding can go a long way toward the emotional well-being of your children.

While we are proponents of negotiation in the best interests of the children, our attorney is ready and equipped to litigate child custody and parenting plan disputes. Our focus in the courtroom is to successfully advocate for the best interests of your children. Contact Us
