"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
-
"Could not be happier with the outcome."[Elizabeth] provided straight forward advice on the issues at hand and what I could expect. This information allowed me to reach a settlement that was more than fair. She also recommended a mediator that was very good at keeping everything centered. Could not be happier with the outcome, given the circumstance.– Former Client| Kirkland, 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 excellent job advocating for me."David [Starks] did an excellent job advocating for me and giving sound advice. He used his smarts and experience to focus on the essential legal matters and what was necessary to get the best possible outcome for me.– Former Client| 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

"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
-
"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

"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!– Former Client| Vancouver, WA
