Murmurs from the Willamette Week

From today’s Willamette Week Murmurs:

“DOYENNE OF DIVORCE DONE: For decades, Jody Stahancyk has been the biggest name and personality in Oregon’s family law bar. Now after 51 years as a lawyer and 38 years leading her own firm, Stahancyk, Kent & Hook, she is stepping away from practicing law. Stahancyk, 76, has sold her interest in the firm to her partners, although she will license her name to them for a year. She’s not going to stop working, however: She is opening a bed-and-breakfast in her hometown, Prineville, starting a podcast about the financial elements of practicing law, and will continue to assist paralegals seeking to obtain licensure in the areas of family and landlord-tenant law. “It’s just time to move on to new adventures,” Stahancyk says. “I am absolutely dedicated to expanding the practice of law to paralegals who are experts on documentation and the backbone of family law.””

“Hanging Dusty in my office gave me a lot of courage” says Jody.

The real the story is at Oregon Licensed Paralegals Online School the perfect new online school for people who want a place in the law but don’t want to go to law school.
