Best dam lawyer for family court in Oregon

The court ordered her to be my meter mediator while I was incarcerated between my ex-husband and I for my children and out of the almost 4 years that she was assigned to me she spoke with me one time. I sent numerous letters my family went into her office, I called, and she never once raised a finger to do her job and to help my children and I have a relationship while I was incarcerated. And then when I was released it was fighting tooth and nail to get my refund for the money that I paid. I had to CC my attorney on the emails to actually get a response!

I was the child in my parent's custody case for my sibling and I. Tahra lied to me, misled me, and rarely offered the support she was hired to do. As a child, I believed Tahra when she told me she would help me. It was clear that she could help me, but she didn't ever seem to have the time or drive to follow through. Tahra unnecessarily escalated many situations and rarely provided solutions. She tried to make me feel special by meeting with me at a coffee shop as opposed to her fancy office but was twenty minutes late. Tahra misguided me into believing that she would work for my best interest, not my parents'. In hindsight, she was the only person who came out of the situation with any gains. I realized that Tahra had deceived me only after believing she could make change possible for me after a year. Tahra's promises were empty and ostensible, a dangerous combination for the vulnerable child I was and the situation I was in. Tahra could've done more and chose not to.

I understand that Tahra would get bad reviews because she is designated to help couples in contentious relationships to navigate co-parenting. However, Tahra is too busy to tend to urgent matters that arise. She's at a soccer match, really REALLY sick, in court, out of town, etc. Nor does Tahra have time to call both parties when investigating allegations. One party says that the other party only feeds the child raw worms. She consults with herself and writes a finding stating that the allegation is true. She sends both parties a letter and a bill for an hour of her time. The kids say that they are locked in a closet. She consults with herself and writes a finding stating that the allegation is true. She sends both parties a letter and a bill for an hour of her time. Perhaps she was too busy to call you for a month? She is happy to bill you at double her regular rate to call you on a Sunday. You may not need a color coded calendar, but she's happy to have Tony make one and bill you for it. Tahra has a great game face smile when you first meet her. But, she does not have time to truly serve her clients. You might be willing to pay for her services at times, but she's too busy. Or, she simply doesn't care. There is not a clear litmus test to know what she will attend to and what will get ignored. You may need a parenting coordinator who you can trust. Your kids may need a good parenting coordinator. Tahra is just not the right one to make sure your kids are safe and healthy.

She goes Beast Mode in Court. Mrs. Sinks is respected and has experience for any type of case. She definitely knows what she is doing. I was blessed to have her appointed to me to represent me in court. And I would literally recommend her to ANYONE. She's got a take charge direct approach with no BS. she has a way of controlling the court room and does it in such a professional manner. Along with her ambitious driven nature. She is definitely a force to reckoned in the court room. Thank GOD for making lawyers like her!😁👍
