Faye and McKinley Irvin saved my life

I am a 71-year-old man. After 30 years of marriage, I was ambushed by my ex-wife (and her two children) with a petition for divorce. Being retired, my situation looked financially bleak if they got their way. Homelessness appeared likely. It was always about the money to them. I was seriously cornere...d, so I got Faye in my corner. Faye and my McKinley Irvin team turned this franchise around and saved whatever is left of my life! In the end, I was awarded 70% of the community property AND spousal support. My case lasted almost five years but was well worth it!

Strategic, Compassionate, and Effective

Faye provided invaluable support and guidance during a very emotional and challenging time. She helped us navigate the complexities of our case with compassion and understanding. We highly recommend Faye to anyone seeking an attorney who truly cares about their clients and their families.

Amazing Attorney

I don't even know where to start if there is more than 5 stars I would give it. If you want an attorney to present you and when they walk to the court room everyone chocks on air look no further because Faye means business and she knows what is she doing. Faye is really rare gem who truly cares about... her clients and believe in their case. Because of her I have fully solo decision making for my son educational and Medical. I mean Faye is Vice President, Clark County Bar Association, you cannot buy this position you can only earn it with an excellent work. Faye is such an amazing attorney who you would hire and sit and relax and have 0 worries. She goes above and beyond with her clients and she always make sure you leave her office with clear picture and understanding everything. I used to have old attorney who only cared about money and she won't even show up to the case she send her paralegal. But with Faye omg less than a year when she stepped in my divorce case got resolved and she I got everything I asked for and my divorce been going on for 3+ years and it's super messy. I can't thank her enough.

Excellent communication

Faye and her team worked on my divorce case that was just recently finalized. She was very knowledgeable and easy to communicate with. Every email was responded to the same or next day. She had everything under control. Communication was flowing beautifully. I felt informed and well taken care of. I... would definitely recommend her to everyone. Great team work.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
