McKean Smith LLC - Vancouver (WA)

5 /5 Troy Poncin: We reached out to David Shannon regarding a relatively minor legal issue, and he exceeded our expectations. Despite the low-stakes nature of the matter, he was incredibly accommodating and professional throughout. His initial advice was realistic, direct, and helped set clear expectations. Ultimately, David guided us to a fair and satisfying resolution with the other party. He met our needs fully, and I’d confidently recommend him to anyone looking for thoughtful, effective legal representation.

5 /5 Astrid Kurniawan: I had the privilege of being represented by Sonia Montalbano in a case involving gender discrimination and retaliation, and I cannot recommend her and McKean Smith highly enough. What began as an incredibly challenging situation became one of the most empowering experiences of my life, thanks to Sonias expertise, guidance, and unwavering support. She made navigating the complexities of employment law feel manageable and even meaningful. Sonia is not only an exceptional legal strategist but also a compassionate advocate. From our very first conversation, she provided clear, actionable advice and set realistic expectations, ensuring I felt informed and supported every step of the way. Her keen ability to balance encouragement with space for reflection made all the difference, giving me the courage to take decisive action. Her meticulous preparation, polished revisions to my complaint, and professional communication with opposing counsel resulted in a resolution that exceeded my expectations and gave me the breathing room to move forward personally and professionally. I’m deeply grateful to Sonia and McKean Smith for their outstanding work and the positive impact they’ve had on my life.

5 /5 Brendan Jobin: I cannot express how grateful I am to Deanna Rusch and her amazing team for changing my little ones life and mine for the better. She fought and helped us establish a set schedule--the benefits are endless for my relationship with my little one. Deanna was efficient, professional, and strong for us. I have a sense of peace knowing her and the team have our back. #clientforlife

5 /5 Haley Minsker: Deanna and her team were compassionate and effective in handling my divorce. They made sure I understood all of my options and helped alleviate the stress of this emotional process. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a great lawyer.

5 /5 Tate Page: This was one of the most important decisions of my life. Having to survive the most complicated divorce, I needed to hire the best, competent team I could find. Lisa Martin and Nicole are the best you could ask for. I told them I wanted time with son as my first and only priority. Lisa and Nicole placed surgical pressure when needed, delicacy when necessary and brutal honesty when justified. I had to let my first representation go as he could not handle the case. Lisa took it on, and took my life personal. I am so grateful she gave me and my son a voice. Since then we have enjoyed many wonderful memories and it is thanks to this perfect team. Lisa and Nicole are the best team you can get on your side. They have a friend and a client for life.
