    "My team was head and shoulders above the rest."
    My team, Margaret Quartararo, 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.

    "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.

    "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.

    "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!

    "Navigated it all flawlessly."
    Cameron did an amazing job on my case. It was complex and he navigated it all flawlessly. He and his paralegal Amy were so good at explaining what was happening in my case to me. It can all be very confusing but the whole team at McKinley Irvin did a great job helping me get through this very scary time in my life.

    "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. [Kim Schnuelle's] knowledge of family law and the King county legal system seems to me unparalleled.
    Former Client
     | Seattle, WA
    "I felt heard and supported."
    My case was a high-asset, amicable divorce with children after 20 years of marriage. From the start, Theresa was upfront and direct, clearly explaining what was and wasn’t possible according to the law. I felt heard and supported throughout, and I believe her dedication helped us move through this significant life change as smoothly as possible.
    Shelley
     | Seattle, WA
    "They cared about me and my family."
    Mark, and his paralegal are absolutely amazing. Beyond just the legal representation they were tremendous in helping me through this extremely difficult time, and exhibited time and time again how much they cared about me and my family.
    Eric
     | Tacoma, WA
    "Highly knowledgeable."
    Brian helps take this burden off of you. He is highly knowledgeable and knows how to navigate these issues and address them appropriately. He is mindful of your finances and does a great job representing you, which is all you can ask for and expect.

    "I can't say enough good things."
    I can’t say enough good things about McKinley Irvin. Going through a divorce is never easy, but the team at this firm made the process as smooth and supportive as possible.
