Kimberly Dean
Kimberly Dean joined O’Loane Nunn Law Group in August 2008. Kimberly focuses her practice on family law, estate planning, and domestic partnerships. She has lived in Washington her entire life, having graduated from the University of Washington and Seattle University School of Law. Kimberly brings broad experience to the firm having worked in the King County Prosecutors Office, a large complex litigation firm in Seattle, and a small family law firm where she gained extensive experience in the intricacies of this fast-paced and ever-changing area of law. The deadlines, pressures, and challenges of successful litigation suit her personality. Her experience brings the maturity and sophistication necessary to litigate complex family law issues. Family law is particularly rewarding to her because she enjoys working closely with each individual client to provide personal attention to help them reach long-term solutions that align with their needs and values. Kimberly believes that a successful outcome in a family law matter is one that maintains relationships and brings an end to turmoil so that parties can move on with their lives. She believes that achieving favorable long-term solutions in family law issues can often be accomplished through alternative dispute resolution processes. She is currently working on bringing collaborative law to her practice.
