Family law
Portland, Oregon
Harlow & Reyes is a two-partner family law practice in Portland. We handle divorce, custody and parenting time, mediation and prenuptial agreements, and we explain each step in plain language before you decide anything.
Oregon courts call it dissolution of marriage. We take you through filing, dividing property and debt, spousal support and, where children are involved, the parenting plan.
Decisions about where children live and how time is shared. We help you build a workable parenting plan, and represent you in court when agreement isn't possible.
Both people sit down with a neutral mediator to reach their own agreement, usually faster and at lower cost than going to trial. Mateo Reyes mediates in English and Spanish.
Agreements made before marriage (Oregon law calls them premarital agreements) about property, debts and support. We draft them, or review one your partner's lawyer has drafted.
We don't handle criminal defense, immigration or bankruptcy. If your situation involves one of these, we'll say so in the first conversation and suggest where to look.
Use the form below or call. We ask for the other person's name so we can run a conflict check: we can't advise both people in the same family matter.
A member of our office contacts you to set a time: at our office on Hawthorne, by video, or by phone. Evening video slots are available on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
You tell us what's going on. A partner explains how the Oregon process works for your situation, the likely steps, a realistic sense of timing, and how fees would work. You can ask anything.
There's no pressure to hire us. If you want to go ahead, we send a written engagement letter that sets out the scope of work and fees before any work starts.
Partner · divorce and custody
Claire spent her first years in practice representing parents in custody cases before opening the firm. She handles the matters that end up in front of a judge, and prepares clients for court so that nothing on the day is a surprise.
Partner · mediation and agreements
Mateo works on the matters where people can still agree, and on making sure the agreement holds up later. He mediates in English and Spanish and drafts agreements in plain language that both sides can read.
Rates are set out in the engagement letter. If a step in your case is likely to cost more than it's worth to you, we'll say so before we take it.
If you or your children are in immediate danger, call 911. The National Domestic Violence Hotline is 1-800-799-7233.

This is what the office would have received. Because this is a prototype, nobody will contact you.
