Very professional

Bevan represented me in my divorce. He was always very professional and worked very hard on my case. All of his staff helped me through a very difficult time. Even though they are a busy office Lexie and Bevan always answered all my questions timely. Maxey Law Office was a godsend.

ARE YOU LOOKING FOR AN ATTORNEY WITH INTEGRITY AND LEGAL EXPERTISE? IF SO, BEVAN MAXEY IS YOUR MAN!

Emotional and mental abuse in a marriage can leave you feeling like you are standing in the middle of a eight lane freeway at rush hour, stark naked. You can imagine the patience, interpersonal skills AND legal expertise it takes to work through such a divorce case. I will be forever grateful to ...Mr. Bevan Maxey, his assistant Jeannie and other members of his office staff who treated me with patience and respect as I struggled to get my feet back on the ground, as we moved through the divorce proceedings. If you are looking for an ethical attorney who has integrity, interpersonal skills and legal expertise, Bevan Mexey is your man. Yes, there are many atttorneys who have legal expertise but it is difficult to find legal expertise with the integrity this man displays.

Bevan Maxey review for divorce and custody case

Bevan and his assistant Lexie were incredible through a difficult divorce and custody case. Their combined expertise, empathy, and committment to both me and my daughter went beyond my expectations. I would recommend them to anyone seeking legal advice that is ethical, respectful and timely.

Trusted & Respected. I would recommend Bevan, and have to any one needing a great lawyer.

I first met Bevan and his legal assistant Lexie back in 2002. Because of some choices I had made I needed a defense attorney. I had heard from friends that Bevan was the best. I am very happy I listened to them, they were right Bevan and his legal assistant Lexie are the best. And the charges associa...ted with this case were dropped. Now let’s fast forward 10 years. I was going through a divorce. So I called Lexie (I had called her every year on July 14th to let her know that I was still doing good) I told her I was in need because my husband wanted a divorce. She set up an appointment and we proceeded. Bevan and Lexie were both always willing to help and answer my questions. Divorce is hard but in my opinion mine ended well, it was nice to have them on my team. Bevan was also used for defense for my daughter’s as well, and like with my case 11 years ago we are very happy with the outcome. I felt very secure knowing my children were in the hands of the best. I have most recently hired Bevan for the 3rd party custody of my 2 grandchildren. Again I am grateful for the support I have with them. I know that I and my family are in good hands. When we need them Bevan and Lexie are the best!! And we did get the 3rd party action for my grand children.

Mr. Bevan Maxey - "Great Attorney"

I hired Mr. Bevan Maxey, who was highly recommended by another well respected Spokane attorney. As a professional who earns a good income, I needed to know that I was being represented by a very knowledgeable attorney. My case involved a complicated family law matter 3 years after my divorce. The ...original divorce had taken two years of litigation and was very contentious and costly to me. To allow time to pay off massive debts after the divorce decree, I had filed a Chapter 13 bankruptcy which allows five years to pay off the debt. This precipitated numerous lawsuits from the ex-spouse that took close to 3 years to settle since many were frivolous and far reaching. As soon as the ink was dry on the Bankruptcy proceedings, an attempt was made to force continued alimony payments. There were loads of documents filed by opposing with great amounts of misinformation. Since there had been so much litigation through both the divorce and the Bankruptcy proceedings it became a very complicated legal issue. Mr. Maxey and his assistant Jeannie did an outstanding job of weeding through the massive amount of information and misinformation on this case. They did not miss a single detail, and provided great examples of case law to support our position and put a stop to this continuous litigation by a disgruntled spouse. Mr. Maxey and his staff were always very responsive to any phone calls or emails. They kept on top of the case from day one. It is obvious that the judge and other attorney's have a high regard for Mr. Maxey and his legal expertise. Mr. Maxey's billing is straight forward and honest. I would not hesitate to contact Mr. Bevan Maxey in the future for any legal matter.

"I had a client come to me after using Bevan on a domestic violence case that turned into a full blown divorce and custody battle. Bevan was very cooperative in helping me "get up to speed". In my work I drafted an appeal of the decision of the Commissioner before whom Bevan had argued previously. I listened to his arguments to this Commissioner. I found him to be calm and commanding, erudite and firm in his advocacy, even when the Commissioner was ruling against him and his client. I recommend him highly."
