I am a life long resident of Harrisburg and Southern Illinois.  I graduated from Harrisburg High School in 2001 as Valedictorian.  I participated on the district, state and national levels in high school speech competitions.  I attended Union University and graduated Magna Cum Laude.  I graduated from Southern Illinois School of Law and graduated Cum Laude.

I started my practice as a Public Defender here in Saline County.  My private practice is focused primarily on family law (including handling divorce, custody, visitation, and child support issues), criminal charges, and probate.  I also handle small claims cases and selected commercial collections.

Upon completing the bar exam, I joined Michael V. Oshel, P.C.  We have since converted our practice to Oshel Law, P.C. in 2008.  I am very proud of the reputation my father has earned our firm in the legal community and in the community as a whole.  I also believe in limiting my practice to those cases to which I can devote sufficient attention.  Dad and I believe that the best advertisement for your practice is a happy and satisfied client. If you are interested in becoming one of those satisfied clients, please don't hesitate to call.

I married Bethany Davis on December 30, 2006 in South Haven, MS.

SAMPLE LEGAL CASES

Does Getting a Document Notarized Make It "Legal"?
The public's perception of what a notary does and what notarization accomplishes is often incorrect. This is particularly the case when a person brings a document to a notary public to be notarized, thinking that the notarization will in some way "legalize" the document or make it "official." Learn more here.
Unmarried? You Are Not Alone, But You Still Need a Plan
Did you know that in many instances, it is even more important that a single person have a well-coordinated estate plan, than a married couple. This is because the default laws governing estates often work poorly for people without a spouse and may not adequately provide for a significant other or unmarried partner. Having a cohesive and well-drafted estate plan will ensure that you protect and provide for those you truly care about upon your death. Learn more here.
When an Adult Needs a Guardian of Property
There are two types of guardianships: a guardianship of the person and a guardianship of the property (also known as a guardianship of the estate or a conservatorship). A guardian of the person is responsible for the ward’s physical safety and well-being. A guardian of the property is responsible for the ward’s money and assets. Learn more here.
