Araceli Amaya is a highly qualified attorney who very successfully navigated me through a contentious divorce. I would recommend her to anyone.

Araceli and her staff at McKinley Irvin are very supportive and responsive. She is very knowledgeable and gives you great insight to both sides of a situation. She presented all the possibilities for my situation and helped me get the result I wanted. I would highly recommend Araceli and the McKinley Irvin firm for any family law case.

Very thoughtful h helpful folks.

Araceli Amaya is a wealth of information and experience in area Family Law and Estate Planning. She is extremely versed in many areas while able to empathize, lawfully protect and manage regardless of your unique individual or family situation. We highly recommend Araceli as your experienced attorney as she has several decades of proven success for her clients. Ms. Amaya far exceeds anyone we have worked with in our real estate industry when protecting or dividing assets and working with people and sensitive topics. She is the best in the business, hands down.

I engaged Araceli Amaya to help with my divorce process. She is extremely smart, figures out complex situations with few questions and very empathetic. Her attention to detail and no-nonsense approach to problem solving are amazing. Initially i was worried if attorney can understand the unique challenges & situation with international assets, complex emotional situation with children etc. - but Araceli has been a tremendous help in the overall process. Highly recommend her and she can be a true partner in the complex legal journey!!!

Araceli Amaya leads her practice with compassion and integrity. I whole heartedly encourage you to reach out to Araceli should you require Family Law services.

Errors, lack of knowledge, big fees even though my ex was agreeing to everything... I had to send papers back to lawyer (Anthony Zorich jr.) several times due to errors they made writing them; I'd ask what a statute was about because I was signing that I understood or complied with it, and lawyer Anthony just said he didn't know, that he didn't have time to look them up or memorize them (isn't that his job? To know that stuff for me?) He wrote to have payments made to companies instead of me, so the state can't automatically recover that money for me.... I had no idea at the time that there were options or I would have chosen to have it paid to me! It was just a very expensive mess even though my ex was agreeing to anything we wrote!! So I would never recommend him or the paralegal I worked with! Now I have to spend many hours of precious time and money fixing (re-writing) visitation and child support and go back to court all over again, and ex is no longer in picture...

Great experience with Araceli. Knowledgeable, responsive, effective, and served my needs while also giving me the best advice, vs. pressuring me to handle issues a specific way. Support staff also very friendly, responsive, and effective.

Brent P. Bohan went above and beyond the call of duty during my divorce proceedings. He is excellent with high conflict custody cases and has a smart yet aggressive approach that is both efficient and effective. He manages client expectations well, and tends to deliver more than he promises. He is also motivated by justice and by his client's need whereas most attorney's are primarily motivated by accruing fees. He was responsive, accessible, supportive and had creative strategies for dealing with opposing counsel. He kept me on task while I was struggling with multiple stressful events such as family illness and car accidents, and let nothing fall through the cracks. I highly recommend Brent to anyone who is going through a contentious divorce, particularly one that involves a custody battle. He will work very hard to settle but will not hesitate to go to trial if the situation calls for it. He also pushes his client's money much farther than any other attorney I know of. Brent breaks the stereotype for law practitioners and faces each case with an attitude of honesty and integrity.

Having to go through legal procedures is rarely something that brings pleasure to people, at least it is not something that I draw pleasure from. I view it as a daunting and unpleasant task, but a necessity at times. Brent Bohan helped to make my experience with the legal process as painless as I imagine possible. He understood my aversion towards the process and was empathetic without needing any explanation. He is the only reason for the 4 star rating, otherwise I would view the legal process as a -5 stars for sure.

Brent Bohan was my attorney for my divorce. He was very helpful and always got back to me in a timely manner.
