FAQs About Divorce in Washington State

Can I keep our Kirkland waterfront home in the divorce?

It depends. Washington is a community property state, so the court considers various factors in dividing real estate and money, including when the home was acquired, who invested in it, and its fair market value. We help protect your financial and housing interests during the property division process.

Divorce for tech professionals often involves equity-based compensation, such as RSUs, unvested stock, or startup shares. These assets can be complex to value and divide. Our firm has extensive experience advising clients near the Google Kirkland campus and understands how to protect your interests.

Not always. If both parties agree on the terms of divorce, we can often resolve the matter without a formal trial. We offer mediation and negotiation services to help Kirkland families reach an agreement privately and efficiently.

Yes. Washington courts allow you to file as long as you meet the residency requirements. Our legal team has extensive experience with international divorces and coordinates legal processes involving overseas spouses.

The legal minimum is 90 days, but if your case involves property, child custody, or financial disputes, it may take several months. We help keep the process moving while protecting your long-term goals. Contact us today to schedule your confidential consultation.
