Our Commitment To You

Our approach to family law cases is to look first at our client’s needs with the goal of protecting our client’s future. Our family law attorneys’ focus and philosophy is to approach every case with our clients by weighing all options and considering the consequences. We don’t see a family legal matter as a contest to be “won.” Instead, we see the process as a means to help our clients prioritize what is most important to them and work toward their vision for a better future and, when possible, to cooperate with the other side to achieve a resolution.

Whether you have children together or not, leaving your relationship is challenging. We can help you take a confident step into the next stage of your life. Our family law attorneys understand that not every conversation or step of the legal process will be easy. You will go through a wide range of emotions during your legal action, but we are here to provide you support and guidance along the way. Whether you’re in Seattle, Bellevue, further out in King County, Snohomish County, or beyond; one of our goals is to assist you as you navigate your path forward in the process.

We provide legal services across the spectrum of family law problems, including:

  • Parenting plans and child support
  • Divorce
  • Prenuptial, postnuptial and co-habitation agreements
  • Mediation
  • Collaborative divorce
  • Modification of existing family court orders
  • LGBTQ+ family law matters
  • Other family law issues

While our Seattle family law attorneys try to avoid litigation, we understand that some cases require it. In those situations, we are skilled and committed to resolving your case in a professional manner.
