Kind and Compassionate Counsel

Hillary was transferred onto my divorce case 6 months in, and we were quickly able to build a trusted relationship that allowed me to feel safe, seen, and heard. My feelings were validated through the entire process and she held space for me as best as she could. She able to advocated for me and fo...ught her best with every conflict and road block along the way. She is empathetic, she listens and she is honest. Hillary is secure in her confidence and worthiness to hold space at what she is good at. She holds her own. I hold gratitude to have had her as my attorney, as not only is she an amazing counsel, she has an amazing team of paralegals who are also right there beside you, doing their best on your behalf. I could not have hoped for a better team. Together, we did everything and tried everything and my case had a great outcome.

Stayed awesome during our crazy case!

This review is a long time past due! I dont think I can say enough great things about Hillary. She stayed with is for 6 years dealing with a psychotic, narcissistic coparent who liked to play games, on top of being across the country from us majority of the time. She helped us navigate court and alwa...ys kept what was at our child's best interest at heart rather than just winning a case. She became more than an employee, she became like family, so much so that she celebrated the birth of our youngest child with us from across the country. If our case had stayed in Washington State we would not have hesitated to keep her as our attorney!

The absolute best attorney in the state!

Hillary has been our family attorney for over four years now. Every single time, she has displayed the utmost professional behavior. She is exceptionally ethical and honest. I recommend her fully to anyone who has a need for family law. She does VERY well with men’s rights and works her butt off for ...her clients! We love her.

Professionalism and a Class Act

I hired Hillary to assist with a post secondary education court case that was brought by my ex-wife. Hillary handled my case with professionalism and class and was available to answer all my questions which is so important in any trying time. Hillary has the personality to listen and show the respec...t that your case deserves but with all of her professionalism she is tenacious! Hillary fights for her clients and I would recommend anyone looking for a good family law lawyer to hire her. Pure class!

Excellent help when needed

I was in a situation where a vengeful ex-husband was trying to attack me to wrest away parental controls from my wife. With Hillary help we were able to establish a clear pattern of repeated attempts from the husband on trying to use the courts to get his way, and was able to establish that he ha...d been violating the parenting agreement in coercing the child to enter an agreement against me. The case was dropped to no small relief on my part and it was thanks to Hillarys help!
