    "Extremely competent."
    Nathan was the perfect lawyer to help me through my divorce. I was terrified, clueless, and heartbroken, but Nathan was with me the whole way. In addition to being very supportive, he is extremely competent – I wound up with a very generous settlement at mediation.

    "I felt heard and supported."
    My case was a high-asset, amicable divorce with children after 20 years of marriage. From the start, Theresa was upfront and direct, clearly explaining what was and wasn’t possible according to the law. I felt heard and supported throughout, and I believe her dedication helped us move through this significant life change as smoothly as possible.

    "Litigation skills are unmatched."
    10/10 recommend Brent for anything family law related. He’s so personable and truly cares about his clients and the outcome of their case/situation. He is extremely knowledgeable and thorough and his litigation skills are unmatched. Will recommend him to anyone I know going through a family law matter.

    "A fierce advocate for me during my divorce."
    Cameron was a fierce advocate for me during my divorce, and Amy kept me apprised every step of the way. I never once felt "in the dark" about my case, I always felt seen and heard, and was consistently treated with the highest level of compassion and professionalism.
    Sarah  | Tacoma, WA
    "A true advocate and extraordinarily competent."
    Sam was a true advocate and extraordinarily competent representing me and my case. I have never felt so at ease despite all of the troubling litigation coming from the other party. Sam always left me feeling reassured in his strategy and his results spoke for themselves in court.

    "I'm so happy I found them."
    My case is finalized!! There aren’t words to express my gratitude for Hillary Dawn and Ryan. Hillary has been my guide through the daunting process of family court. She and my paralegal Ryan kept me in the loop about possible outcomes, court dates, etc. They were always available by phone or email if I had additional questions or information. I’m so happy I found them.
    Danielle  | Tacoma, WA
    "Good to know you hired the bigger fish."
    Lindsay Camandona at McKinley Irvin was excellent. The customer service at the firm is excellent. The best part is that when my (now ex) husband's lawyer heard we had hired McKinley Irvin, her response was, "Uh oh..." In the end, my divorce was quite amicable. But it's always good to know you hired the bigger fish.
    Tammie  | Tacoma, WA
    "A high ethical standard."
    I had the opportunity to have Courtney Bellio represent me in 2 family law cases, and I have nothing but positive things to say about her work. Courtney is incredibly precise and knowledgeable, but also holds herself to a high ethical standard. Most importantly, Courtney took time to get to know me, my family, our situation, so that she could provide legal advice that was right for us.
    Isaac  | Portland, OR
    "An awesome family attorney."
    Rainer Frank was an awesome family attorney. He helped our family through a difficult and long battle regarding custody and child support. In the end, he worked hard and not only solved the original issue, but helped us with adoption as well (which he took the time to research just for us). I could never thank him enough!
    Brittany  | Tacoma, WA
    "Offered me sound advice."
    After 25 years of marriage I was blindsided when served with a petition for divorce. Jennifer was very professional, she took the time to understand my case, offered me sound advice and, along with her team, guided me through the entire process resulting in a fair settlement without going to court.
