Matthew R. Muenzen

I am an experienced and dedicated attorney with a demonstrated history of working in family law, juvenile law, and child welfare law. My career has been driven by a passion for helping others, a value I developed during my time as a police officer and public defense attorney. With a Doctor of Law (JD), Master of Arts (MA), and a Bachelor of Science (BS), I combine a strong legal foundation with hands-on experience to guide, educate, and advocate for my clients.
 
Since 2008, I have specialized in family law with an emphasis on juvenile law, practicing first in Tennessee and now in Oregon. Over the years, I have represented children and parents in child welfare cases and presented on topics such as child abuse and neglect. I also have extensive experience navigating the challenges of working with the Oregon Department of Human Services, ensuring my clients receive compassionate, personalized, and tenacious representation.
 
I tailor my approach to each client’s unique needs, whether as a zealous advocate in the courtroom or a collaborative problem-solver seeking resolution. I understand the complexities of family and juvenile law and am committed to providing customized legal advice with respect and compassion. Whether crafting parenting time agreements or handling complex custody disputes, I am dedicated to securing the best possible outcomes for my clients and their families.
 
When I’m not in the courtroom, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two daughters, exploring Oregon’s natural beauty, discovering new bourbons and coffee blends, working in my yard, quoting my favorite movies, and staying active through strength training.
