Welcome to the website of Forrest R. Collins,
Divorce Mediator and Collaborative Attorney

It seems like everyone knows someone who has gone through a “typical” divorce or custody case. The case took too long and cost too much. The client had no control over the process and ended up being dissatisfied with the outcome. The thought of their ex still leaves them bitter. It seems like a constant battle just to enforce the judgment.

Sound familiar? You do not have to have the same experience. 

People tend to have assumptions about the divorce process. They are unaware there are options for resolving their case in a civilized, respectful way that allows them to retain control over the outcome, maintain their privacy and stay out of court.  The Law Office of Forrest R. Collins is pleased to provide such options, including custody and divorce mediation and Collaborative Law (also called Collaborative Practice or Collaborative Divorce).  Forrest is a Portland, Oregon divorce mediator and divorce lawyer who provides a full range of family law services, including traditional representation.  Additionally, Forrest is availble to help self-represented litigatants on a limited basis.

This website is designed to be a resource for families in transition. Please explore it to learn more about the best option for your family. You will also find links to other useful information you may find helpful as you move through this process.
