    "He put in a lot of hard work."
    I felt like the communication between Sam and I was very good and open, I never wondered what was going on and always got a prompt response to any questions. I felt like I truly had an advocate for me and my case. He put in a lot of hard work and I appreciate it.

    Katie McGinley with McKinley Irvin was my divorce attorney. Her professionalism and experience helped me tremendously. She led me through each step of the complicated legal process and the tough time in my life. She is understanding, caring, thoughtful, communicative and respectful.

    "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.

    "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
    "My voice was being heard."
    She always made me feel like my voice was being heard and took the time to explain things in detail when it was necessary. Most importantly, she fought stringently for my child and for myself as a good father. If you are looking for the highest quality, most professional and compassionate family law representation, Amy Carei should be your pick.
    Andy
     | Tacoma, 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
    "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
    "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
    "Helped me through the most difficult time in my life."
    John Rosecrans (and his awesome team!) helped me through the most difficult time in my life. To John, it's about doing the right thing and making sure I am supported and properly informed of my options at every turn. John, Leanne and Patty have always gone above and beyond, and for that I am forever grateful.
    Jessica
     | Everett, WA
    "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.
