Overview

EXCLUSIVELY FAMILY LAW

We believe the rights, responsibilities, and privileges related to family relationships are among the most sacred in our society. Since our founding in 1991, we have focused on one pivotal priority: to protect what our clients value most.

EXPERIENCE AND RESOURCES MATTER

With extensive experience in complex divorce and family law, our attorneys are among the best family law strategists, negotiators, and litigators—and we have a deep bench. Our family law professionals can assemble a team best suited to the facts and needs of each client’s case, no matter how simple or complex.

PROTECTING OUR CLIENT'S RIGHTS AND ACHIEVING THEIR GOALS

It all boils down to this: we either reach a reasonable agreement or we litigate the case. Either way, we are accustomed to achieving successful results for our clients. Although personal styles differ, every McKinley Irvin attorney espouses the following practice philosophy:

  • Treat every client with compassion and respect;
  • Negotiate from a position of strength;
  • Be more professional;
  • Be better prepared;
  • Always lead the case.
