I got an excellent divorce settlement. The attorney responsible was retired when the ex-husband began short-paying, late-paying and then not-paying spousal maintenance. My eml reminders and requests for pmt got creative excuses, unkept promises of pmt and then silence. NEEDED, an experienced, saavy ...attorney. A consultation with Kiona Gallup went well and I hired her. She listens to understand, appreciates the dearth of legal and backup documentation that I can/have provided, explains options, follows through and keeps me apprised. She has deployed a Judgment Agreed Order, negotiated Joint Escrow Instructions [for sale of home jointly-owned with the ex] and filed a Motion to Enforce with the court. Kiona's communications and legal documents are cogent, succinct and factual. She has been The Right Attorney for my legal issues.

We are so thankful we found Kiona Gallup after having different family law representation. Kiona is effective and thorough. She listens, treats clients with the utmost respect and honestly advises whether it makes sense to take legal action or not in a given scenario. Our family law matters took plac...e in King County's Kent Justice Center where Kiona has much valuable experience with various commissioners and judges.

Community Advocates Northwest represented me better than I could have ever imagined. My attorney went above and beyond for me in my family law/ child custody case against an extremely powerful opponent. I couldn’t have asked for a better law firm or attorney! My attorney was Kiona Gallup. Kiona gave ...my case all the time and attention that was needed to be successful in court. She was strategic and confidant during very difficult court proceedings. I would highly recommend anyone of the attorney's at Community Advocates Northwest. I very much appreciate the knowledge and support I received from Kiona and Community Advocates Northwest.
