Attorney Matthew Muenzen helped secure a reversal for a parent from the Oregon Court of Appeals in a challenging dependency case involving no identified alleged perpetrator, complex medical evidence, multiple alleged marks, and no history about how the child received the marks.
The Court made clear:
Dependency jurisdiction requires proof of a current, real, specific, and immediate risk to the child — not just a generalized risk based on past concerns and opinions.
This case highlights the importance of:
- Careful review of medical and factual records
- Holding the state to the correct legal standard
- Protecting families from unsupported findings
We’re proud of Matthew’s work and the impact this decision will have for parents navigating the DHS system and the dependency process in Juvenile Court.

One of the greatest gifts a father can give his family is a plan for the future.
Estate planning helps protect the people you love most by creating clarity, security, and peace of mind for the road ahead.
This Father’s Day, we celebrate the dads thinking ahead for their families — today and for generations to come.
Separation changes everything — but it doesn't have to disrupt your kids' world.
A strong parenting plan creates the stability children need to thrive, even when family looks different. Clear schedules, consistent communication, and shared decision-making can reduce conflict and help everyone move forward.
At Gevurtz Menashe, we help parents build agreements that put kids first.
