About Matthew

Professional Experience

Nothing makes me happier than to help clients through a complicated legal issue and have them come out the other side ready to move on with their life. Whether you are going through a divorce, probate, guardianship, adoption, or need an estate plan, I can help you through the process.

I began my career by serving this country as a soldier in the U.S. Army. I then worked for many years in the aviation industry, first for several airlines and then with the Boeing Aircraft Company. Working for large corporations was challenging and rewarding, but I prefer guiding individuals through what can be some of the most difficult times in a person's life. Whether you are going through a divorce, adopting a child or caring for your elderly parents, I can help you navigate the unfamiliar and sometimes unfriendly legal system.

Community Activities

In addition to helping the lives of my clients, I also want to improve my community. I am currently on the Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District's Parks Bond Citizen Oversight Committee. Our job is to ensure that bond funds are spent wisely. Additionally, hoping to improve the practice of law in our state, I have been elected as a delegate to the Oregon State Bar. I am also a former member of the Unlawful Practice of Law Committee of the Oregon State Bar. I currently sit on the Elder Abuse Subcommittee of the Elder Law Section of the Oregon State Bar.

Personal

My wife and I have lived in Washington County for many years with our two boys and enjoy many of the outdoor opportunities that Oregon has to offer. We love to find a great new camping spot where we can enjoy boating, fishing and hiking. I also enjoy skiing and the occasional game of golf, and I like to help out with my son's scout troop.
