Seattle – July 14, 2022 – McKinley Irvin, the Northwest’s premier family law firm, announced today that 22 of its attorneys have been selected to the 2022 Super Lawyers and Rising Stars lists.
Attorneys are nominated by their peers for their professional accomplishments and dedication to the practice of law.

This year more than half of McKinley Irvin’s practicing attorneys were recognized, with 21 attorneys from the firm’s Seattle, Issaquah, Everett, Tacoma, and Vancouver offices included in the Washington Super Lawyers and Rising Stars lists.
