    "Their thorough guidance was invaluable."
    During a very painful time in my life, I found a bright star in attorney Jennifer Payseno and her team. Two years later, my eyes well up with tears just remembering their compassion while guiding me with expert knowledge and precise actions. Their thorough guidance was invaluable.

    "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.

    "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.

    "Knowledge, expertise, professionalism."
    From start to finish, Mark and his entire McKinley Irvin team provided the highest level of knowledge, expertise, professionalism, and quality of work. Very happy with the quality of Mark's representation and the outcome he obtained. I give him my highest recommendation.
    James
     | Tacoma, WA
    "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
    "Helped make a difficult process manageable."
    I highly recommend McKinley Irvin and Carry Porter as an excellent divorce attorney. She helped me navigate the divorce and custody process and was a strong support and incredibly knowledgeable resource throughout the process. Her paralegal is wonderful and was always quick to respond to any questions I had. Carry helped make a difficult process manageable, and I am very grateful for their help. Highly recommend!
    Amy
     | Kirkland, WA
    "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
    "I can't thank him enough."
    My children were not safe with my ex. Eric was the third attorney on my case. He was patient, calm, and helped me show the court what needed to be seen in order to protect my children. I can't thank him enough for the guidance he provided.

    "Highly recommended!"
    I was lucky enough to have Haley Helms and her team help me through my divorce filing. Their response times to questions, compassion that they showed and overall service level was second to none. Highly recommended!

    "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.
