    "My voice was being heard."
    She always made me feel like my voice was being heard and took the time to explain things in detail when it was necessary. Most importantly, she fought stringently for my child and for myself as a good father. If you are looking for the highest quality, most professional and compassionate family law representation, Amy Carei should be your pick.

    "Highly recommended!"
    I was lucky enough to have Haley Helms and her team help me through my divorce filing. Their response times to questions, compassion that they showed and overall service level was second to none. Highly recommended!

     | Everett, WA
    "I could not be happier with the outcome."
    Best attorney and team in Vancouver! I could not be happier with the outcome! Her and her team are always very quick to respond to my questions and give answers that I could understand. She truly made me feel like she was in it with me throughout the whole process! I would recommend Teresa and her team every time!
    – Lindsay
     | Vancouver, WA
    "My team was head and shoulders above the rest."
    My team, Margaret Stewart, her paralegal, Jacquelynn, and Grace were comforting, professional, prepared, and easy to correspond with. There were months of preparation leading to a very stressful morning. But once, we got into court, I realized, that my team was heads and shoulders above the rest.
    – Carleigh
     | Tacoma, WA
    "A deeply empathetic human."
    Courtney is a true professional in every sense of the word. She's also a deeply empathetic human who will pour her heart and soul into your case and Kayla will keep everything flawlessly organized on the back end. I cannot recommend Courtney enough.
    – Holly
     | Portland, OR
    "Knowledge, expertise, professionalism."
    From start to finish, Mark and his entire McKinley Irvin team provided the highest level of knowledge, expertise, professionalism, and quality of work. Very happy with the quality of Mark's representation and the outcome he obtained. I give him my highest recommendation.
    – James
     | Tacoma, WA
    "Grateful with the outcome."

    I can’t begin to express how grateful I am to have had Christa Melton’s guidance and expertise during a very challenging and drawn out divorce. She and the entire team kept constant communication helping reduce any added stress. In the end, my children and I are grateful with the outcome and Christa as our legal representative. Thank you to the entire McKinley Irvin team.

    – Lillian
     | Tacoma, WA
    "Sharp, thorough, and gets results."
    I cannot recommend Carry Porter highly enough. She handled an extremely complex and high-volume case for me, managing an overwhelming number of filings and winning every motion. Beyond her skill, she was responsive and calm, and made me feel supported throughout the entire process. If you're looking for a family law attorney who is sharp, thorough, and gets results, she's the one.
    – Christa
     | Kirkland, WA
    "Guided me through the divorce process."
    McKinley Irvin and their team are wonderful. They were always available whenever I had questions, and guided me through the divorce process with patience and kindness! I highly recommend them for any of your law needs.
    – Ashley
     | Kirkland, WA
    "I couldn't ask for a better team and outcome."
    Functioning like an extension of my family, Lindsay Camandona and the McKinley Irvin team educated me through all aspects of the marriage dissolution process, kept me informed and organized at every step, and genuinely cared for my well-being throughout the difficult and stressful experience. I couldn't ask for a better team and outcome – highly recommended!
