Mediator and Lawyer
About AJ Wahl
I practice family law and mediation on the Oregon coast. A child of divorce, I understand the stress that these cases place on families and children and I work hard to help people find solutions that are best for their kids.
Before becoming an attorney and mediator, I worked for the Governor of Wisconsin, as a Research Aide in the Wisconsin State Legislature, and on various political campaigns. This gave me the ability to see multiple sides to an issue and I learned the benefit of hearing each side before forming an opinion. As a custody evaluator, it is crucial to see the whole picture and have in-depth conversations with everyone before making a recommendation. I think it is important to remain impartial and treat parties fairly and with respect.
I obtained my Juris Doctorate at Willamette College of Law. While at law school, I met my husband, and upon
graduation, we decided to make the pacific northwest home. I like to garden, clam, hike through the woods and on the beach, and create jewelry and pottery.
I hold a Bachelor Degree in Molecular Biology, Classics, and Legal Studies from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I live in Gearhart with my husband, two daughters, dog, and chickens.
