In addition to its new Bainbridge Island location, joining its Downtown Seattle, North Seattle, Spokane, and Bellevue offices, the firm was recently named to Inc.

Attorney Laura Gano
Anchoring the firm’s Bainbridge Island office, Laura brings a future-focused perspective and deep Kitsap County roots to help families navigate high-conflict custody and complex divorce cases.

Dellino. “We are thrilled to welcome them to the firm and look forward to continuing to build our deep bench as we work to serve clients on a higher level than any other firm in the region.”
