About Abbie
Abbie Obenour built her professional foundation across two fields that meet in many family law disputes: law and public health. She combined rigorous academic study with a practical interest in how health, welfare and family systems intersect. The result is an approach that addresses legal issues as part of a broader social picture.
She earned a Bachelor of Arts from Ohio State University, graduating summa cum laude. She stayed at Ohio State to complete a Master of Public Health, a degree that exposed her to population-level health concerns and policy questions. She then attended Capital University Law School, where family law formed a central strand of her legal training.
Early in her career she moved between courtroom work and client counseling. That experience shaped a practice that balances litigation readiness with an attention to negotiation and settlement when appropriate. Colleagues describe her as concise in court and meticulous in preparation. Clients encounter an attorney who frames legal issues clearly and presses for practical outcomes rather than headlines.
Her public health background is not academic ornament. It informs how she evaluates cases that touch on child welfare, medical evidence and health-related support matters. She reads medical and social-service reports with a practitioner's eye and seeks input from experts when necessary. That perspective can be useful in custody evaluations, contested support disputes and matters where long-term care decisions are part of the conflict.
Abbie Obenour is active in the local professional community and holds current membership in relevant associations. She practices through The Obenour Legal Group, where she handles an array of domestic relations matters. Her work spans custody and visitation disputes, child and spousal support issues, and divorces that involve complex health or welfare concerns.
She writes and speaks on practical issues for clients and peers, aiming to translate technical law and health information into usable guidance. Her courtroom work is complemented by case management that anticipates future needs and documents them for court purposes. In day-to-day practice she emphasizes clear client communication, steady preparation and careful use of expert resources.
Today she practices family law at The Obenour Legal Group, handling custody, support and related domestic relations matters.
