Salem family law attorney Sarah M. Litowich is an Oregonian through and through, with roots in rural eastern Oregon and the Willamette Valley. She is grateful for these deep Oregon roots because she learned the value of hard work and building and maintaining strong relationships. Her legal career has taken her to southern Oregon and the Willamette Valley, which she now calls home.
Growing up in Washington's San Juan Islands taught Katherine Denning firsthand the power of strong communities. Island life can be isolating unless you learn to rely on your friends, neighbors, and family. And Katherine knows that strong families grow stronger together. That is why Katherine has created a law practice centered around helping parents and children.
Born and raised in Los Angeles, California, Zachary Gottlieb made his way to the Pacific Northwest in 2014 to attend Willamette University College of Law to pursue his dream of becoming a lawyer. During Zachary's time in law school, he joined multiple organizations to help his community. From helping collect clothing for children in need, to mentoring law students, he is passionate about giving to others.

Custody cases are not fun or easy but working with Zachary Gottlieb made the process less stressful. He was very sympathetic and understanding of the situation. I really appreciated that he always asked how the kids were. I also really appreciated that the communication was constant whether it was emails or calls. Zachary was very professional and always explained the process and answered all the questions I had. He walked me through everything and never gave false expectations. He was very honest about all possible solutions and outcomes and that made it easier to make decisions. Thank you!!!

I am so grateful to have had the stability of an attorney from this firm beside me walking into one of the most nerve racking situations of my life! Custody situations tend to be hard anyway, but even on short notice Mr. Gottlieb was able to appear with me and help navigate this process with prompt, patient and professional support. Thank you again!

We are so glad we chose Litowich Law to help us with our adult adoption. We received excellent advice, counseling, and attention from Katherine and her staff. Michael and Ingrid were on top of the details and very responsive to our needs. It was definitely a great experience.

I had a very difficult, two year divorce that was made even more trying as there were two little children involved. Sarah could not have handled my case better. She was masterful in balancing the professional aspects in giving me the information I needed to make well informed decisions, with a caring and supportive approach that kept me level headed and focused. She recommended books and podcasts to help me process the difficulties of a divorce and was simply there to listen when I needed to be heard. She never told me what I wanted to hear, but always what I needed. I can't imagine going through

Zachary Gottlieb handled my parenting plan case professionally. I can’t thank him enough! I wasn’t sure what to except, since it was my first time working with an attorney. He was transparent and honest throughout the whole process! It lifted a huge weight off my shoulders knowing that he was there to help and was going to be doing the “heavy” work. He communicated with me throughout the whole process and made sure I was satisfied. He answered all my emails and questions, promptly. He made sure my voice was heard, as well as the other parties’. I highly recommend Litowich Law!

Greatly enjoyed working with him. The company was super respectful and honest. I would recommend them to everyone and the team that I would love to work with again.

I feel so lucky! I've heard horror stories of people's divorces and dealing with their lawyers so was super apprehensive about hiring anyone. However, I contacted Litowich Law and spoke to Zachary and felt like it would be a good fit. He listened to me. He understood what I wanted and how I wanted this to happen as far as the tone of the divorce process. He may have disagreed with me on some issues, but we talked about them and he would explain the legalities of the issues, and we would come to an agreement. He was so supportive and real and very patient. Everyone was very professional and helpful

I hired them for a child support case. Amy was great and attentive but everytime I talked to Sarah, she kept talking and wouldn't listen to what I have to say and kept telling me what she was going to do. Fast foward a few months and $4000 later, I was still not able to get a straight answer if how much child support would be. She even said to "not appear as a deadbeat dad." At that point I asked to stop work and get copies of my files to seek a second opinion. She then dropped me as a client then charged me for dropping her. I felt like she has a gender bias towards men.

Sarah and Amy were exceptionally helpful and straightforward through the whole process. The transparency and quick responses were helpful in finding a resolution.
We got amazing advice that wasn't driven by money, but what was best for our case. Sarah answered EVERY question we had with honesty and care. She also provided us with advice that was timely and helpful.
Sarah helps get what is best for everyone involved. She helped us see all sides and presented all the information so we could make informed decisions.
They made a possibly difficult situation bareable. Would recommend and use
