Kirstyn D. Palmisano

Anson · family law · May 2026

Kirstyn and Catherine were great advocates when my Ex was infringing on my parental rights with visitation. So often, and particularly in WA State, fathers are at a disadvantage when trying to enforce parenting plans and court orders. Kirstyn was able to provide balanced advice telling me what is and is not possible based on our prior Court Orders, and we determined that my Ex was in fact in contempt. We then created a case and roadmap setting expectations of possible outcomes, and Catherine represented me in court. Even though the judge was blatently against us in court based on his opinion of our verbal argument (his own bias), the written contempt was ironclad and indisputable and as a result we won, creating better and healthier boundries with my Ex. I was even awarded some of the money from the judge based on the degree of contempt and Catherine's ability to outline the ramifications.

I can’t tell you how many lawyers I have contacted and how many consultations I paid. I went from big firms to lawyers here on Avvo with a lot of reviews, contacted some that were recommended. and in the end I landed on Kirstyn Palmisano. Let me tell you, she was very responsive, attentive and answe red all of my questions in such a caring and observant manner that I knew I wanted her and her team to represent me. I have a high conflict divorce, but Kirstyn and her team walked me through all of the steps and helped me feel safe and taken care of. I feel very confident and reassured having Kirstyn and her team representing me, guiding me through the legal process and stayed focus on protecting the best interest for me and my child. Kirstyn is not afraid to stand by her clients and fight for you and for what is right. She is very sharp, and knows her stuff very well. She also has a very skilled paralegal and I had the pleasure to also work with her other legal partner, and they are an amazing team!

Kirstyn is a knowledgable, passionate, understanding and no-nonsense lawyer. She helped navigate a lengthy and painful divorce process, always guiding me, championing my cause, and strategically planning our next moves. Although I failed at marriage and made a bad decision choosing my ex, hiring Kirs tyn was the best move
