"My case was handled perfectly."John and his legal team have had my back all the way. Their response to any of my questions and concerns was always prompt. They made me feel as though I was their only client. Once the I's were dotted and T's crossed, my divorce came swiftly. My case was handled perfectly. I cannot recommend them highly enough!– Clancy| Kirkland, WA

"Extremely grateful to my attorney."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.– Liz| Tacoma, WA

"David is a rockstar attorney."David is a rockstar attorney. If you need a smart, wise, responsive, attorney for a tough case, David [Starks] is definitely it. I felt connected, informed throughout a hard and long divorce and educated on process and next steps when I needed to be. I’m convinced that my divorce would have taken a different path without his wisdom and clear but fair approach.– Former Client| Seattle, 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

"Earned my respect and trust."What impressed me most, is how incredibly well prepared she was and how confident she was in court. She's so professional and empathetic. She realizes how hard it can be to need her services and really helped explain the process so there were no surprises. I can't thank her enough. Caitlin [Royse] has earned my respect and trust.– Former Client| Everett, WA
-
"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.– Natalie| Everett, 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

"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

"Hard-working, sensitive, and professional."I could hardly ask for a more hard-working, sensitive, and professional attorney with a strict attention to detail and organized, rational approach.
