    "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.

    They delivered with compassion and understanding for my circumstances and I am extremely grateful to my attorney for restoring my belief in justice and protecting me from adversarial behavior during contentious court proceedings. Thank you McKinley Irvin and Lindsey Noel for the fine representation.

    "Phenomenal support and counsel."
    Hillary and her team provided phenomenal support and counsel. Within a short 30 minute call I had clarity on what our game plan could be and how she would support me. Hillary is highly experienced and competent, communicates clearly, is pragmatic, direct, discusses options, and takes action quickly.

    "Explained the process and options clearly."
    Jane Malico explained the process and options clearly and understandably at every step of the way and was very responsive to questions. I appreciate that Jane gave realistic assessments of situations and encouraged me to consider my goals when making decisions. I would gladly work with Jane again.

    "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
    "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.
    – Andy
     | Tacoma, WA
    "Integrity that instills confidence."
    Brian has a commanding and confident demeanor and an integrity that instills confidence and calm among the stress and chaos of divorce. He is very responsive and communicates all possible outcomes and options thoroughly.
    – Ailsa

    "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
    "Brilliant in court."
    Casey is brilliant in court, professional in his filings and I grew to trust Casey and Karrey implicitly. They taught me how to handle communications with my ex and always stay child focused. I have been and continue to be very grateful to have had this amazing legal team on my side through such a difficult divorce process!
    – Rebecca
     | Vancouver, WA
    "Helped me achieve a fair outcome."
    Sarah guided me through every step of the divorce process, ensuring I was informed and confident in my decisions. She was always responsive, answering my questions promptly and providing thoughtful advice tailored to my situation. Her negotiation skills ultimately helped me achieve a fair outcome.
