Don’t Stress
Family law trouble can roll in fast — like a hard storm on an open trail. It can keep you up at night, twist your gut, and make every day feel like a fight. When it’s your kids, your home, or your future on the line, the pressure can be downright crushing. But you don’t have to face it alone.
Rugged Law steps in with steady hands and a clear plan, cuts through the noise, and stays by your side when things get rough. We don’t flinch, we don’t fold, and we don’t ride off — we hold the line with you until the dust finally settles.
Don’t Wait
When family trouble hits in Oregon, waiting can cost you — plain and simple. The longer you hold off, the more time the other side has to get organized, twist the story, or take the first shot. Evidence can disappear, deadlines can sneak up, and small problems can turn into big ones fast.
That’s why you need to reach out to Rugged Law right away. We’ll step in early, get you steady on your feet, and start protecting what matters before the fight gets any worse.

At Rugged Law, we know Oregon’s family court system can feel rough on folks who are already carrying a heavy load.

Based in Portland and serving clients across Oregon, our firm stands with people facing divorce, child custody, parenting time disputes, child support issues, spousal support questions, and high net worth property division. We also guide families through juvenile dependency matters when DHS is involved, where steady participation and clear plans can make all the difference.

If you or someone you love needs help with divorce, custody, child or spousal support, a modification, or a juvenile dependency case in Oregon, reach out to Rugged Law.

Learn what you should and shouldn't be doing to help your family law case.
Portland’s built different. It’s a city of hard workers, strong hearts, and folks who don’t scare easy.
People who show up for their neighbors even when they’ve got their own troubles to carry. Rain or shine, they keep moving. They build lives here, raise families here, and fight for what’s theirs. And when life gets rough, Portlanders don’t go looking for pity — they go looking for a way through.
But family law trouble doesn’t care how tough you are. In Portland, we see the same hard fights over and over: divorces that turn bitter, custody battles where the stakes are your kids, and parenting plans that fall apart when someone stops playing fair. We see folks trying to co-parent through tension, protect their children from chaos, and hold onto stability when everything feels like it’s shifting under their boots. And when money’s tight or emotions run high, even small issues can blow up fast.
Then there are the real Portland problems — housing pressure, job changes, and high costs that squeeze families until they crack. Sometimes it’s a move across town that turns into a custody war. Sometimes it’s a partner who uses control, threats, or fear to keep someone trapped. Sometimes it’s a parent who disappears, breaks agreements, or makes promises they never meant to keep. No matter what the story is, the results are the same: worry, sleepless nights, and a future that suddenly feels uncertain.
That’s where Rugged Law steps in.
We don’t flinch when things get messy — we dig in, sort out the facts, and fight for what’s fair. We help Portland parents protect their time with their kids, secure strong custody and parenting plans, and stand firm when the other side tries to bully or bend the rules. We handle the paperwork, deadlines, court strategy, and hard conversations so you don’t have to carry the whole load alone. When it’s time to negotiate, we stay sharp. When it’s time to stand up in court, we stand tall.
Because Portland isn’t just a city to us, it’s home. These streets, these families, these people – they matter. We fight for our clients like they’re our own, because what’s on the line isn’t just legal paperwork. It’s the people you love, the life you’re trying to protect, and the peace you’re trying to earn back. When the fight gets tough, Rugged Law is ready.
Grit, honesty, and loyalty when it matters most.
