Testimonials
Arabic alimony lawyer reviews in Kent
Read what Arab American families in Kent say about our Arabic-speaking alimony attorneys.
“My divorce involved a mahr agreement and community property issues. Washington is a community property state so everything had to be divided. My lawyer understood Islamic marriage contracts and fought for my mahr to be enforced separately. I got custody through a parenting plan and a fair settlement.”
Noor A.
Kent, Washington
2025
“My divorce was complicated because Washington uses parenting plans instead of custody orders. My lawyer drafted a plan that protected my time with the kids and got the court to enforce my mahr as a separate contract. She understood Syrian family values and explained everything in Arabic. I felt heard.”
Sawsan T.
Kent, Washington
2025
“My ex claimed my business income was much higher than it was to get more child support. My lawyer brought in a forensic accountant and showed the real numbers in King County court. The judge set a fair amount based on actual income. He spoke Arabic and understood what it's like running a small business here.”

Washington family law overview
Understanding Washington's family law statutes helps you protect your rights and plan your case. Here's what you need to know.
Divorce Requirements
Washington is a pure no-fault divorce state. The only ground for divorce is that the marriage is irretrievably broken. The court cannot consider fault in dividing property or awarding maintenance.
Property Division
Washington is a community property state. All property acquired during the marriage is presumed community property and is subject to "just and equitable" division — which is not necessarily 50/50. Separate property (owned before marriage or received as gift/inheritance) may also be divided in some circumstances.
Unlike some community property states, Washington courts have discretion to divide community property in a way that is "just and equitable" rather than strictly 50/50. Courts may also divide separate property if justice requires it.
Child Custody
Best interests of the child
No
- •The relative strength, nature, and stability of the child's relationship with each parent
- •Agreements of the parties
- •Each parent's past and potential for future performance of parenting functions
- +5 more factors considered
Washington uses "parenting plans" instead of custody orders. A parenting plan specifies decision-making authority and the residential schedule. The court considers the best interests of the child and encourages both parents' involvement when safe.
Child Support
Washington uses the income shares model based on both parents' combined net incomes and the number of children. The Washington State Child Support Schedule provides detailed guidelines.
Support continues to 18, or through high school completion if the child is still enrolled and under 19. Post-secondary support is not automatically ordered but may be agreed upon.
