About
I have been practicing family law almost exclusively since 1990, and in 2007, I opened Bier Family Law. We are comfortably situated in Beaverton with ample parking and a calming view of Koll Center Wetlands, where we see clients in a variety of difficult circumstances and treat each person with the utmost of care and respect.I love my job. Family law allows me to exercise diametrically opposed skills: I hand-hold and counsel people through perhaps the roughest emotional time of their lives while actively safe-guarding their current and future interests. As a client advocate I also play the role of negotiator both in and out of court. Whether protecting my clients' custody rights or parenting time, or advocating for a fair agreement in issues of support or regarding the division of assets, I do everything within my power to do what’s right by my clients. I welcome all inquiries for an initial consultation, which allows prospective clients to decide whether the match is a good one before retaining me. During the consult, I hear details of the case, and provide a legal overview as well as a projected estimate of the cost. There are often both tears and laughter at this meeting. Getting started is the hardest part, but picking up a phone is relatively easy. If you need sensitive and effective legal advice or help in a family matter, call 503.595.4141 and make an appointment to see me.

Lilian was recommended to me by a former attorney due to the complexities and difficulties of my divorce situation. I don't think you could find a more detailed, prepared, on-top-of-it attorney and staff to accomplish your divorce. She and her staff are amazingly compassionate and professional and helped me accomplish everything we set out to do. She communicates well to you about your case and I can't imagine that it would even be over and done in the time it was without her focus and energy to overcome every road block thrown at us. I will be forever grateful for her and her staff.
Lilian used her expert legal skills to navigate me through my unique situation with great success. Her council, patience, and years of experience lead me through my unfamiliar undertaking with confidence. Her office staff is superior in their professional efficiency and supportive kindness.
Words cannot express how appreciative I am for Lilian Bier, Sierra Fotos, and the entire Bier Family Law staff. I am so grateful for your support, professionalism, and dedication to me and my son. I don’t know where I would be without your genuine passion for protecting children and the amazing legal work you did on our behalf. Your ability to listen and understand exactly what we were up against, as well as, your trust and confidence in me and my case, prepared a foundation for the truth to be heard. Your passion for the law and intrinsic drive to do the right thing, even when the opposing counsel did not, are truly honorable examples of your character that allowed me to have complete faith in you and your team. You provided examples compassion again and again and I will be forever grateful for your support. I will continue to hear your voice of encouragement, kindness, and resilience throughout my life. Thank you for everything!
I have been using Bier Family Law for 15 years. Lilian is one of the best advocates one could hire during a divorce/child custody situation. I have referred her and her firm for years and will continue to do so.
Lilian and everyone in her office were absolutely incredible. Lilian made me feel empowered and confident to go through with everything and I'm so thankful. My life is so much better having her help!
Lilian Bier and her staff renewed my faith in the legal system. She, along with everyone in her office, work with unparalleled professionalism and dedication, supporting clients during a very difficult time. I started my divorce process with one of the large, most well known firms in Portland and did not know what it was like to be truly represented and supported until switching to Bier Family Law. The difference was remarkable. Ms Bier and her staff know the law well and use that knowledge accordingly. They kept me informed regularly and asked for input as needed. They worked tirelessly to help me get through the process and get the best possible outcome, even adding a touch of much needed humor and humanity at exasperating times. It is without any hesitation or reservation that I recommend Bier Family Law to anyone looking for the best representation on all levels.
Bier Family Law was extremely knowledgeable and trustworthy! I hired them during a time that for most is so scary and confusing. Their team took me by the hand and helped me though every step of the process. I highly recommend the expertise of Bier Family Law.
Lilian and her team showed me kindness, respect and thoughtful representation that kept me going during one of the darkest periods of my life! She is expensive but please don’t let that interfere with your decision to have her represent you as I can say that she is with every penny! I will be eternally grateful to her and her team!
I was broken, frightened and thought I had to stay in an unhealthy marriage. Never have a I met two women, Lilian and her assistant Mary Ann, who were more caring, thoughtful and brilliant. Lilian was one hundred percent committed to helping me dissolve my 24-year marriage in a manner that was respectful to my fragile state. She always continually asked what I wanted and acted accordingly. She was a master in mediation and a no-nonsense trial attorney. Don’t let her tiny stature fool you, she can be vicious fighting for you. My case was very difficult and it was solved in a respectable time for a very reasonable cost. Never was I not able to contact Lilian or Mary Ann. Never were they not there for my best interests. Lilian’s kindness and knowledge of the law and what is right got me through a very difficult time. It was a tough fight, but because of Lil, I came out of it a much stronger women. Consider yourself lucky if she agrees to take your case.
I held off on writing this review to be sure of doing it justice. She was so good for me I wanted to do the same back for her. An attorney friend gave me 3 references to handle my divorce. After interviewing all 3 I chose Lilian and could not have been more satisfied. My friend later told me that Lilian would have been his choice as well were he in the same position. She was excellent in getting me through a very difficult time, handled my case with professionalism and--most importantly--caring, even recommending a course of action that reduced her fees. She was excellent about follow up, including a few years later when financial issues were completed to insure that the satisfaction of judgement was filed. Perhaps the best praise of all--despite an at times contentious process, at the conclusion my ex recommended Lilian to a friend!
