Cheryl was very professional and helpful in addressing my issue. With her help, my matter was resolved within two weeks. She responded quickly to communications, which was important as the matter was time sensitive. Her fees were reasonable and were well-worth it to have this matter solved. I would recommend her to others looking to address matters within her areas of practice.

Miryana Gerassimova at McKinley Irvine in Tacoma is an amazing attorney who works hard to protect, counsel, and advocate for her clients. I have referred multiple client to Miryana because of my confidence in her expertise and professionalism.

Ron was straight with me from the start, he explained to me what we could and couldn't do as well as what the cost would be so I wasn't left in the dark, wondering if there was some till spinning adding costs I knew nothing of. Ron worked magic for me, because do to my ignorance and thought that people are generally good, I didn't have a lot of supporting documentation to combat the slander my ex was saying about me. Luckily I was able to find some documentation and with Ron's attention to detail and knowledge of the law he turned what to me seemed a loosing battle into the best outcome that could be obtained. Ron and his sidekick Jess kept me informed and feeling taken care of. In this world more than not you get what you pay for and I will say not settling for a cut rate attorney paid off in the end.

I've had a lot of questions recently about separate/community property issues, and making legal agreements with my partner when purchasing real estate. Miryana Gerassimova has been there for me with every particular complex question I have had, and has really helped me to troubleshoot any foreseeable legal issues that might come up in the future when thinking about these big life changes. I can't thank her enough for the great advice she's given me to set my partner and I on the right path towards success. Would highly recommend her for counsel!

Cindy is awesome. She was highly recommended to me and I hired her when my King County case became complicated due to child custody matters. We worked together for a year and although divorce was awful, she was one of the best things during the process. We had a fairly difficult case. My ex-spouse is a military member and his representation was not professional: poor ethics, poor communicator who consistently did not meet deadlines, tardy to proceedings, and blatantly lied about documented facts. Cindy is realistic, consistent, would think three steps ahead, and she was always courteous and business-like, even when the other party was not respectful. Divorce is stressful in the first place but it is worse when the other party attempts to escalate matters. I was lucky to have Cindy as my representation, as she is level-headed and will take the high road. She will always stick to what is legal and beneficial in the long run and won't let emotions get in the way of business. In fact, she looks for ways to de-escalate the situation if emotions heat up. She is a solid legal guide and reliable in all ways - in my case, she regularly discussed paperwork, reminded me of deadlines, double-and even triple-checked documents, worked ahead of deadlines, explained any legal questions, and was able to meet with me if I wanted in-person meetings. I know she also researched military regulations and rules in my case, so she would have better insight. In addition, she checked-in with me when things were slow so we were in constant communication. The three best character traits about Cindy are she is honest, hard-working, and dependable, which are really important when it comes to divorces (in my opinion). She does not play games and will not manipulate or massage the truth so if you want straightforward representation, she is the one. I know she cares about her clients so she does not take advantage of people, which I know is not always the case when it comes to lawyers. Communication is prompt; she is available via email, text, and phone (although I usually texted her prior or set a phone appointment). In addition, she tries not to waste your time or money, and is thoughtful about funds. Divorce was expensive but I know my total was about half of that of my ex-spouse, and I know his representation was not communicating with him as frequently. I am thankful Cindy was in my corner and would recommend her to anyone going through a [difficult] divorce. I really only have positive comments about her; if you want a detail-oriented, thorough, knowledgeable, honest lawyer who has the foresight to give you the best legal advice for you (and your children), I highly recommend Cindy.

McKinley Irvin is a fantastic law firm. Ron Nerio and Mallory Absher were a great help with my case and very timely as well as kind. I would recommend them to anyone!

Jamie Walker and her team (Kendra and Sondra) helped in my time of need. Not only were they my legal counsel, they were my emotional support too.

Jamie Walker is very intelligent, confident, kind and articulate. What impressed me most was her professionalism and the degree of familiarity she had with my case at every turn -- at times I felt like she knew it better than I did! I was treated with the utmost dignity and respect. Jamie's relentless advocacy and thoroughness made me feel as if I were her only client.
