    "A phenomenal attorney."
    Caitlin Dennis is a phenomenal attorney! I can't say enough about what a blessing she was as her expertise is incredible. I would not hesitate a minute to recommend her to anyone. I am so grateful to have found Caitlin!

    "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.

    "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.

    "They go the extra mile and beyond."
    From the first moment I met Teresa and Chriss, I felt instantly at ease and assured that I was hiring the absolute best. Throughout the entire process, they were consummate professionals, extremely knowledgeable, and compassionate. I continuously felt in the loop about the next steps. Nothing falls through the cracks. They go the extra mile and beyond for their clients.

    "A great team in helping me get a fair outcome."
    Excellent attorney. I worked with Brent Bohan and Lindsey who were a great team in helping me get a fair outcome at trial. They were effective, thorough, and communicative over the lengthy process and I was glad to have them supporting me throughout.

     | Seattle, 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
    "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.

    "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.
