It’s fun to watch celebrities get divorced, but it’s not fun when it’s you in the courtroom.
Celebrity divorces are dramatic, public, and often entertaining to watch from a distance. But real-life divorce in Oregon is nothing like that. You are not performing for the world — you are speaking directly to a judge who is evaluating your credibility, behavior, and judgment. Treat your divorce with seriousness, because how you present yourself in court matters.

DUI 101: Get sober before it's over.
If you have been charged with a DUI in Oregon, you are likely under a court order to avoid alcohol and controlled substances while your case is pending. Now is the perfect time to get sober and enter a drug or alcohol treatment program. It is cheap insurance, helps you function at your best, and allows your attorney to show the court and DA that you are not a public safety risk. Treatment is confidential, affordable, and almost always beneficial.

If you have ever been drunk, high, or under the influence, wait until you are under the influence of divorce.
You may think you know how you will handle divorce, but you do not really know until you are in the middle of it. Divorce can make even calm people act emotional, reactionary, or defensive. That is why it is so important to have trusted, objective voices in your life, whether that is a friend, family member, therapist, clergy member, or your lawyer. They can help you slow down, see things from a different perspective, and avoid decisions driven only by emotion.

How do you really know when your marriage is over?
Sometimes the hardest part of divorce isn’t the paperwork or the legal process — it’s realizing the marriage is truly over. When communication, trust, and respect break down completely, it may be time to move on. Knowing when to let go can save both partners and their children from deeper emotional and financial strain in the future.

Think cops have to tell the truth? Think again.
Most people think police officers are required to tell the truth. They are not. Unlike attorneys, police officers can legally lie or mislead you during investigations and interviews. The only time they must tell the truth is when testifying under oath in court. If you are ever being questioned, remember: stay calm, remain silent, and call a lawyer.

How do you know what’s best for your parenting plan? I’ve got an easy answer.
When creating your parenting plan, use the “Rule of Three.” Figure out the three things that matter most to you — the ones you need to feel happy with your plan. It could be holidays, first days of school, or meaningful family traditions. Everything else is negotiable. Knowing what’s most important helps you advocate for what truly matters, and at Romano Law, we can help you do just that.

What Happens If You Don’t Pay Child Support in Oregon?
Failing to pay child support in Oregon can have serious consequences. You could face wage garnishment, license suspension, or even jail time. Courts take these cases seriously because child support is for your children, not your ex. If you are struggling to make payments, contact a lawyer immediately before the state takes action.

Big game this weekend? Don’t fumble with your life.

Everyone has the right to remain silent, but most people don’t have the ability.
Everyone has the right to remain silent, but most people can’t resist talking. Once the police read you your rights, do yourself and your lawyer a favor—stay quiet. Anything you say can be used against you, even if you think you are helping. Remain silent and call a lawyer immediately. It is the smartest move you can make.
