About

Erin Kathleen Morris is a dedicated family law attorney in Portland, Oregon with extensive experience in a variety of family law matters. Erin Kathleen Morris is a zealous and committed advocate for her clients and their families. Licensed in both Oregon and Washington state, she has a wealth of experience in family law litigation, including divorce, legal separation, custody disputes, child and spousal support, prenuptial agreements, relocation, and parentage/paternity cases. Erin's approach is centered around tailoring her legal strategy to her client's ultimate goals, whether that involves reaching a settlement out of court or aggressively pursuing their interests at trial. She understands the deeply personal nature of family law and approaches each case with compassion, transparency, and attention to detail. A native of the Pacific Northwest, Erin spent much of her childhood in Vancouver, WA as the daughter of a local high school football coach and teacher. She earned her Doctor of Jurisprudence from the Willamette University College of Law and graduated Cum Laude from the University of San Francisco with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science.

Erin has been recognized for her legal skills and dedication, being named a "Rising Star" by Super Lawyers Magazine for two consecutive years (2017 and 2018) and receiving the 2017-2018 "10 Best" Lawyer award for client satisfaction from the American Institute of Family Law Lawyers. Outside of her legal practice, Erin enjoys exploring the Pacific Northwest with her family and friends, experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen, and diving into a good novel.
