OPLaw is a small firm dedicated to giving every client the personal attention their case deserves.  Our firm offers a free 30 minute consultation by phone or in person to determine if OPLaw is the right firm for your legal issue.

Some of the legal areas we handle for our clients are:

Criminal Defense, DUI, and Traffic Tickets

When the blue lights came on, your troubles have started.  Let OPLaw help make sure that regardless of the seriousness of the crime you have been charged with that your rights are respected, not violated.  From traffic ticket appeals and DUI cases through serious felonies, OPLaw can take you step by step through your personalized criminal defense, including motion practice, trial, and even appeals to the Vermont Supreme Court.

Family Law

Divorce.  Alimony.  Child Support. Parent-Child Contact.  Family Law is often filled with intense emotions, which can hinder you negotiating the best possible outcome for you and your children.  Let OPLaw shoulder the burden of making sure your wishes are respected, whether in property division or child custody.  Or let us help you avoid long drawn-out litigation by drafting a prenuptial agreement.

Employment Law

Whether you are creating policies for the employees at your small business, or want to make your sure your employment contract meets your expectations, OPLaw is there to help.  We review employment contracts to make sure you receive what you bargained for, and nothing less.  We also can advise employers about hot button issues like sexual harassment policies, employee terminations, even drafting employee handbooks for businesses.  Let OPLaw take the stress out of legal issues and let you get back to running your business.

Landlord-Tenant Law

As a landlord, it's not unreasonable to want to get the rent paid on time, and have your tenants keep the rented space in good shape.  If you're a tenant, you deserve to have a rental that is habitable and a landlord who fixes problems when they happen.  OPLaw can stop many problems before they start, by carefully reviewing any lease contract before signing.  And we will vigorously assert your rights when a lease contract is violated, whether you are a landlord or a tenant.
