Client Services

We believe the rights, responsibilities, and privileges related to family relationships are among the most sacred in our society. Accordingly, we represent our clients with respect and professionalism, understanding that all families are unique, special, and important. It is our goal to achieve the best possible results for our clients, while at the same time delivering the very best personal service.

We are dedicated to providing exceptional legal services and quality client service. We have therefore implemented the following client service goals and monitoring mechanisms:

  • Same day return of phone calls and email by either attorney or staff
  • Client satisfaction inquiries
  • Same day consultation appointments, in person, by phone, or via videoconference
  • Hours of business M-F, 8:00am-5:00pm
  • After hours voice messaging service
  • Detailed monthly billing statements
  • Major credit card payment options

Our Clients' Advantage

Our work as divorce and family law attorneys centers on one primary focal point—our clients. Our attorneys and staff work on behalf of our clients because we believe strongly in the value and purpose of our work.

Having counseled and represented thousands of individuals in divorce and family law matters since 1991, we have encountered clients from virtually every line of work, economic background, and family relationship. Although each client is unique, the great likelihood is that we have represented clients in circumstances similar to yours.

Most of our attorneys focus their practice in certain sub-categories of family law. By focusing their practices on certain types of divorce and family law matters, our attorneys are better able to build concentrated knowledge and experience in the kinds of cases they enjoy working on the most. This concentrated knowledge and experience provides a significant value to our clients in terms of both efficiency and insight. Moreover, all of our attorneys work collaboratively and routinely share knowledge and experience with one another.

Client testimonials

    "I knew I had a great team looking out for my best interest."
    My daughter is the sunshine of my life. I felt despair and a sense of helplessness on the day I was served. On the first appointment day when I arrived at the office and sat down with my lawyer, I knew I had made the right decision. From the beginning of my case to conclusion, I knew I had a great team looking out for my best interest (and the best interest of my child). Thank you McKinley Irvin!

    David remained very level headed and family focused throughout our proceedings. That said, I always felt my specific needs were very well represented and that I could count on David to be a trusted adviser during an otherwise difficult time.
