Margaret Doyle Fitzpatrick

Margaret can go up against any lawyer / layer-commissioner in the area. She is as good as it gets. She is not only a powerhouse of an attorney - she is ethical and kind - a rare combination of fearless, brilliant, and human. Doesn't get any better! I have used her against one of the highest paid... divorce attorneys in Seattle and she proved herself stronger on each issue and willing to go the extra mile to support what was right and good for kids each time.

Margaret represented me on several occasions related to a very troubling divorce. In response to the unhealthy, aggressive approach taken by the other party and their legal counsel Margaret provided well thought out, documented, and appropriate responses. Those responses, and motions brought to rei...nforce our position won the day in the Superior Court of Washington and in the Court of Appeals Division One of the State of Washington. The legal findings were the best the court system was able to achieve and maintain given the circumstances. Beyond the legal aspects I found Margaret's perspective and advise excellent. Margaret helped protect my young children, retain primary custody and the house for us to live in. Since the divorce the framework of mediation established in the parenting plan has provided the basis for conflict resolution in 12 followup mediations without having to engage the court system again. If you have a tough case needing great representation. If you need someone understanding, capable and willing to go the distance. Margaret is who I recommend to all I know.
