"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.– Alana| Seattle, WA

"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.– Aaron| Kirkland, WA

"My case was handled perfectly."John and his legal team have had my back all the way. Their response to any of my questions and concerns was always prompt. They made me feel as though I was their only client. Once the I's were dotted and T's crossed, my divorce came swiftly. My case was handled perfectly. I cannot recommend them highly enough!– Clancy| Kirkland, WA
-
"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.– Jordan| Seattle, WA
-
"Offered me sound advice."After 25 years of marriage I was blindsided when served with a petition for divorce. Jennifer was very professional, she took the time to understand my case, offered me sound advice and, along with her team, guided me through the entire process resulting in a fair settlement without going to court.– Nick| Seattle, WA
-
"I couldn't have been more pleased."I hired Sarah Hovland to be my attorney in my divorce case. I couldn't have been more pleased with everything she did for me, and what the final outcome ended up being. I would absolutely recommend Sarah to anyone going through what I went through...she'll make sure you don't get the 'wool pulled over your eyes'!– Tom| Everett, 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
-
"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
-
"My team was head and shoulders above the rest."My team, Margaret Stewart, 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.– Carleigh| Tacoma, WA
-
"Fantastic experience."Fantastic experience with them. They speak to you like a human being and not just a client. The ease of the process and candor between client and law firm were appreciated. Thank you for all your help!– Nathan| Kirkland, WA
