I engaged Brian Edwards at McKinley Irvin to represent me during a complex and emotionally charged divorce involving significant assets and a contested parenting plan. From our initial consultation, it was clear that his decade-plus of experience, honed since graduating from Seattle University School of Law, provided a solid foundation. His recognition in the field of Family Law, which I noticed from his firm bio, was evident in his strategic approach. He navigated the legal intricacies with precision, particularly in structuring a fair division of our business interests, and his calm demeanor was a steadying force during negotiations. While I sometimes wished for slightly quicker email responses during non-urgent periods, his thoroughness in preparation and his ability to explain every step of the process more than compensated. The outcome was favorable and provided the stability my children and I needed. Brian is a consummate professional who combines legal acumen with genuine empathy, making him an excellent choice for anyone facing family law matters in the Seattle area.
