Ryan P. Hamilton
Family Law Attorney

I chose to be a divorce lawyer and custody attorney because the first time I saw how much happier someone could be at the end of a divorce, I knew I was doing the right thing. It changed my entire perspective on what divorce actually means for someone. It means a new direction, a new path, a new life. It means being able to find happiness again.

Megan K. Paull

Being a family law attorney always felt like the right path for me. I have always had an ability to connect with people and understand their perspective. This has been a great strength in helping people through divorce and custody disputes. As a Washington divorce lawyer, I do everything I can to make sure people make the best decisions for their family and future.

Client Testimonials

"I had the good pleasure to work with Ryan as a colleague and refer my clients in need of family law services to him for over five years. I continue to be impressed with his ability to assist his clients through knowledge of the law and achieve great results for them."
David Blair
Attorney
"Megan was great! She helped me get through a really tough time. I had false allegations made about me and she showed that not only were they untrue, but the individual making the allegations was unreasaonble, not credible, and vindictive. I highly recommend her."
C.P.
Former Client
"I have hired Ryan and his team multiple times over the last seven years to address difficult divorce and custody issues. With his help and professionalism we prevailed each time. I highly recommend him and his team.
