Teresa and Chriss were awesome! Divorce is a difficult and exhausting endeavor, but these two ladies kept the process going! Many thanks!!

There really aren’t words to describe what Lisa Ward has done for me. Lisa took a very messy and extremely complicated anti-harassment case against me and with true skill got it dismissed. I was so blindsided by the case against me that when I came to Lisa my anxiety was at an all-time high. She assured me that I could hand over my stress and anxiety to her and that she would do everything in her power to defend me…and she did just that. I can’t tell you the relief I felt every time I met with Lisa whether it was in her office or before/after the hearings. This case was moving fast and the evidence against me felt insurmountable. Lisa placed priority on my case because it was moving so quickly and sifted through the evidence with a fine-tooth comb, explained in detail all possible outcomes, and came up with a game plan in record time. Lisa knew my budget and she broke down exactly what was necessary and what wasn’t and allocated her time and resources to make sure my money was being used efficiently. Watching Lisa walk into each court hearing gave me a sigh of relief. Her passion, poise, and skill in the courtroom is incredible. Navigating the noise of this case and sorting out what was relevant and what wasn’t was masterfully done and led to the eventual dismissal of my case. Moreover, Lisa has a very personal approach with her clients. This was deeply important because this case was personally difficult and very close to home for me. Lisa was there for me whenever I needed her, checked in with me often, and I never had to wait for a response from her which is so critical when you have so many important questions. I strongly recommend Lisa Ward for any of your legal needs. I truly can’t speak highly enough of her.

Starting Tuesday we tried to contact this law firm for an attorney after a referral. The person stated that a intake person would contact us within 30 minutes. That didn’t happened. My daughter was in a urgent need of a attorney so we called several times and we just got a answering machine response to leave a message. The next day my daughter went into the Vancouver office and receptionist said we would receive a e mail setting up a interview time before the end of the day. That didn’t happen. We again called and sent another E mail and that person said for us to either E mail or call to schedule a consultation. When we E mailed the person we received a auto reply message that she will be out of town until next Tuesday! Finally today, 4 days later, they contacted us and my daughter talked to a person who then informed her that they couldn’t help her until September! The question is if they are that busy or they don’t want to help a potential client, why not just say that so we could move on.

Lisa Martin was very helpful and caring. She was there when I couldn’t be for my mother. I really appreciate her help during the divorce. A wee bit spendier than others but it was totally worth it

I would very strongly recommend against working with McKinley Irvin on your divorce case, and specifically recommend against working with David Gross.

DO NOT GO TO THIS BUSINESS, SAVE YOURSELF THE MONEY AND GRIEF!

Lisa’s service was invaluable to me as I had to navigate post-divorce stress and threats from my ex-husband. Every step of the way, Lisa confidently and professionally handled my questions and concerns in a timely matter. The cost of her service and legal expertise was commensurate with the peace of mind I received. Because of her efforts and swift legal action, Lisa was able to quickly resolve my matter. Even after our business was completed, Lisa made herself available to me within minutes after leaving a voicemail to answer another legal question I had. That made me feel valuable and important as a client. I’m so appreciative of everything she did for me, and highly recommend her.

I worked with Lisa Ward on my case. I originally started with a different firm and quickly realized after the first court date that I needed better representation. I was very fortunate to have found that with Lisa Ward. She took time to sit down and review my case and explain in depth any questions I had. She provided an excellent service and never at any time did I feel rushed. As emotions can sometimes take the best of us all, Lisa, with the help of her team of paralegals, kept every expectation reasons and the process moving along a progressive rate. She not only focused on providing constant updates but also looked for moments when she could help keep the costs down as well. I am so thankful everyday to have had our paths cross and for the extremely positive outcome that we were able to obtain. I would most highly recommend Lisa to anyone. Thank you so much Lisa. I wish you all the best going forward into the new year.

I spent $62,000 on a divorce/custody case and got nowhere. Ended up firing them and hiring someone else. They also had the nerve to raise their hourly rate by $50, after I'd signed a contract. Do NOT hire them!!!!!

I used Mr. Kuehnl while attempting to obtain custody of my daughter as well as defend myself against an unmerited protection order. His staff was very professional and capable. He adequately helped the judge see the truth in the protection order hearing. We did not end up having to litigate on the custody issue. He negotiated to help me obtain an end result that was best for my daughter.

I would like to thank Lisa Ward for her expert representation in my recent mediation/divorce. I felt I was very well represented through out the whole process. I appreciate how professional, efficient and highly capable she showed herself to be from day one through the end of mediation. Divorce is awful. Lisa helped me navigate some very tricky tax and legal issues to make sure issues were properly addressed, all the while keeping the painful process going as quickly as possible, thus saving on damage to my family, not to mention legal fees. The divorce will be final 90 days after filing. I highly recommend Lisa Ward to anyone needing a personable, efficient family law attorney. I would also like to thank her assistant, Lisa L. I appreciated your attention to detail and support during this painful process. Thank you both, ladies. I am grateful.

Casey Sanders and his paralegal Karrey were a dream to work with. Recently went through a divorce and I don’t think the process could have been easier than these two made it for me. Questions were always answered quickly and I feel I was given real, reasonable advice and realistic expectations.
