Are you a family law attorney who thrives in court, values teamwork, and wants to focus on clients instead of finding them? Sherwood Family Law is growing and looking for a full-time attorney to join our close-knit team.

• Collaborate with a supportive team that values growth and mentorship

What We’re Looking For:

• Strong knowledge of Oregon family law statutes, rules, and case law
• Confident in court, highly organized, and committed to client success
• Empathetic, professional, and a true team player 

Our Core Values:

• Understanding and Empathy. We believe that the only way to help our clients is to walk a mile in their shoes.  We deeply understand that a custody or divorce is the hardest thing our clients have ever had to experience.
• Always Being Prepared. We don’t kick the can down the road and we prepare from the beginning with a solid plan.  We live and die by our calendars.
• Playing By The Rules. We don't take short cuts and we believe the rules matter.  Yes, it drives us a little bit crazy when an opposing party files their hearing memorandum the morning of trial. 
• No Sharp Elbows.  We are a tight knit team and value compassion and hard work.  We've all had an experience of working at a firm where yelling and abrasiveness was just another day in the office -- it isn't for us. 
• Finding The Answers.  We try our hardest to find the answers first.  We love to learn and all strive to become the best.  We also know that Google generally has the answer, and start there first.  

At Sherwood Family Law, we believe in guiding clients through their hardest times with compassion and clarity. If you’re ready to join a firm that cares deeply about both clients and team members, we’d love to hear from you.
