Tristen was well known throughout Washington State as a social worker where she dedicated 10 years of service with several local public agencies before attending law school. Upon graduation, Tristen chose to practice family law as an extension of her social work experience.Tristen has a winning track record using her keen ability to anticipate the other side's case strategy to stay one step ahead. Her unique ability to be competitive yet reasonable and compassionate makes her a trusted attorney by clients and well respected by her colleagues and the bench. Tristen is known in the community for zealously and diligently advocating for her client's interests. She is never hesitant to take on complex and difficult cases and has many years of experience in the courtroom and with successful results. Tristen's distinctive approach to clients is to establish a rapport of trust, confidence, and candor with clients at the earliest onset to create and accomplish a case strategy for the best possible outcome.

She works diligently to keep her clients apprised of all developments in their case so the client may remain proactive throughout their litigation."I try to convey to all my clients that I can appreciate the difficulties that lie ahead for them during and after the litigation. I am not a detached lawyer but a lawyer who truly cares about the outcome of each and every aspect of their case. I strongly believe in coming up with solutions outside of the box to fit my client's individual case rather than using a cookie cutter approach to family law. At the end of the day, my clients are real people with real problems who have trusted me to take care of their family's legal needs."

I consulted with Tristen approximately 4 months ago to start the ball rolling to end my long term marriage and end the life of domestic violence. Tristen and her team have been very kind, patient, and caring throughout this entire process. I have never been through legal proceedings such as this, although I did start divorce proceedings over 15 years ago, but lacked the courage to follow through, for many reasons. This time was different as I am a different person now and my ex not longer has my child to hold as leverage. With the knowledge that I was very concerned for my safety and the safety of my son, Tristen helped me to understand the options I had, given my circumstances. And though our original plan started on one path, an unforeseen event threw me onto a different path of needing to obtain a DV protection order, which Tristen guided me through while I was in a very emotional state resulting from the event. Tristen and her team show'd genuine concern for me and my safety and stayed in contact with me till I was safe. From that point the Key Law Team has been nothing but professional and concise in every instance regardless of mode of communication, i.e. email, phone, face to face. Every time I walk into the office I feel a sense of calm with the environment they present, which is so helpful at such a stressful time. I will admit I have not always been the best "client" as these times can cause emotions to guide our actions and Tristen has had to "talk me off the ledge" many times. Unfortunately she has also had to clean up the mess I made when I did not listen to her guidance. I strongly recommend Tristen and her team to anyone in need. They will not let you down, they truly are the experts!!!

We hired Tristen as representation for my grandaughter's custody case and parenting plan. Tristen was eloquent and educated-proving her experience and confidence to be unwavering. She understood the emotional aspects of going through an ugly court trial and did everything she could to accommodate us in every way she was able. Tristen was not the first attorney we consulted, but she was the one we hired because of her experience as a social worker and familiarity with our type of situation. I hope to not be involved in another predicament such as ours, but given the extremely favorable outcome I would not hesitate to hire her again. So happy with the results and so grateful for her reassurance.

From the first consultation session and throughout the entire legal process, Tristen Key eased my anxieties, provided ongoing and timely information and kept what was best for me at the center of all decisions. In talking with Tristen, it is quickly evident that she is smart, mastered the expertise in Family Law etc. specific to WA and prides herself in administering high quality service. The administrative/paralegal staff readily answered questions, quickly scheduled appointments and efficiently managed documents. I strongly recommend Key Law Offices to anyone seeking legal advice in the areas of Family Law, Divorce or Separation. You will be fully satisfied!!!

Tristen helped me through a tough time with a unexpected separation with my ex in Jan 2020. She consulted with compassion, provided crucial information and education regarding the matter, offered multiple choices of approaches with pros and cons. She is very professional and efficient! I am lucky to have her on my side of the ring!

Tristen helped me navigate my issue with a perfect balance of sensitive care and pragmatism to help me make the best choices for the situation. It was very tough to handle, but Tristen and Samantha both managed the emotions, time and communications required to get everything done. I would definitely return and will always refer my people to her office. I'm so grateful for the care I received. Thank you both.

Putting Tristen and her team on my divorce case was the best decision I made for my future. I really could see the difference in preparedness and individual attention between my legal team and my ex’s. I honestly felt like her propelling arguments at the temporary hearing are what landed me primary custody with my child. In addition to that, I went from a position of thinking I’d have to live in poverty to having a settlement big enough to go to school and get my life back on track. I also understand how uncommon it is to work with a legal team that works so hard to keep their fees low for their clients. Tristen makes top tier legal work affordable for people like me.

I hired Tristen to help with a legal separation. She was very knowledgeable and did everything possible that was in my best interest. Her communication throughout the process was excellent. Thanks to Tristen and Samantha, it was a painless process.

I am deeply appreciative of Tristen's representation in my divorce. I first met with her when I knew that I wanted to separate, but wanted to be sure that I considered everything so that it was done in a manner that was both safe and financially responsible. She helped guide me through the early steps of separation, all the way through drafting a parenting plan, negotiating a settlement and the final steps of my divorce. Our first meeting was about a year ago now, and looking back I'm certainly able to say that the relatively drama-free resolution of everything has been possible because she is capable, knowledgeable, and communicative. The nature of divorce itself can be stressful, but Tristen's approach is calming because of her straightforward manner and responsiveness. What it all has amounted to is a happier life for me and my kids.

Meeting with Tristen was like meeting with old friends. I felt comfortable the moment I walked in. Samantha at the front desk was amazing and everything was communicated to me perfectly. She was also wonderful in helping watch my special needs son as I needed a last minute consultation with Tristen and didn't have child care. Tristen immediately recognized the ways in which I was being taken for a ride in the paperwork I showed her and gave me reassurance and sound counsel! If I ever need representation in Snohomish County, Tristen will be the first person I reach out to!!

I initially started with a one-hour consultation with Tristen. It was a very emotional moment for me but Tristen was smart, courteous, professional, and kind and she could answer all my questions and walk me through the process. I was comfortable talking to her and her knowledge gave me confidence to hire her as my lawyer. She always made sure I know what was happening, explained to me everything I need to know and made sure I get what is fair. I am very smart but this is something I could not figure out on my own especially with the emotional toll it has on me. Note that me and my ex are both working professionals on a different field. Tristen was very diligent and worked with me in person, on the phone and in email. During the hearing, you can tell which lawyer was the smarter one and has done her homework, it was my lawyer Tristen. She is extremely smart, very diligent, very thorough, and would “fight” for me. I was very impressed with her. She was well prepared, she knew what she expected was going to happen and relayed that information to me and that is what happened. She’s extremely knowledgeable, she knows the system and the process and she can point out what mistakes the other party did. She knew the court would deny my ex’s demands because they filed it incorrectly and that they were asking for more than what was fair. She’s very hardworking, makes sure we are on track, and gets what I asked for or corrects me and makes sure I get what I deserve. My case is not over yet but I’m confident that with Tristen as my lawyer, I’ll get what I want and what is fair.

Tristen and her team show'd genuine concern for me and my safety and stayed in contact with me till I was safe. From that point the Key Law Team has been nothing but professional and concise in every instance regardless of mode of communication, i.e. email, phone, face to face. Every time I walk into the office I feel a sense of calm with the environment they present, which is so helpful at such a stressful time. I will admit I have not always been the best "client" as these times can cause emotions to guide our actions and Tristen has had to "talk me off the ledge" many times. Unfortunately she has also had to clean up the mess I made when I did not listen to her guidance. I strongly recommend Tristen and her team to anyone in need. They will not let you down, they truly are the experts!!!

We hired Tristen as representation for my grandaughter's custody case and parenting plan. Tristen was eloquent and educated-proving her experience and confidence to be unwavering. She understood the emotional aspects of going through an ugly court trial and did everything she could to accommodate us in every way she was able. Tristen was not the first attorney we consulted, but she was the one we hired because of her experience as a social worker and familiarity with our type of situation. I hope to not be involved in another predicament such as ours, but given the extremely favorable outcome I would not hesitate to hire her again. So happy with the results and so grateful for her reassurance.

From the first consultation session and throughout the entire legal process, Tristen Key eased my anxieties, provided ongoing and timely information and kept what was best for me at the center of all decisions. In talking with Tristen, it is quickly evident that she is smart, mastered the expertise in Family Law etc. specific to WA and prides herself in administering high quality service. The administrative/paralegal staff readily answered questions, quickly scheduled appointments and efficiently managed documents. I strongly recommend Key Law Offices to anyone seeking legal advice in the areas of Family Law, Divorce or Separation. You will be fully satisfied!!!

Tristen helped me through a tough time with a unexpected separation with my ex in Jan 2020. She consulted with compassion, provided crucial information and education regarding the matter, offered multiple choices of approaches with pros and cons. She is very professional and efficient! I am lucky to have her on my side of the ring!

Tristen helped me navigate my issue with a perfect balance of sensitive care and pragmatism to help me make the best choices for the situation. It was very tough to handle, but Tristen and Samantha both managed the emotions, time and communications required to get everything done. I would definitely return and will always refer my people to her office. I'm so grateful for the care I received. Thank you both.

Putting Tristen and her team on my divorce case was the best decision I made for my future. I really could see the difference in preparedness and individual attention between my legal team and my ex’s. I honestly felt like her propelling arguments at the temporary hearing are what landed me primary custody with my child. In addition to that, I went from a position of thinking I’d have to live in poverty to having a settlement big enough to go to school and get my life back on track. I also understand how uncommon it is to work with a legal team that works so hard to keep their fees low for their clients. Tristen makes top tier legal work affordable for people like me.

I hired Tristen to help with a legal separation. She was very knowledgeable and did everything possible that was in my best interest. Her communication throughout the process was excellent. Thanks to Tristen and Samantha, it was a painless process.

I am deeply appreciative of Tristen's representation in my divorce. I first met with her when I knew that I wanted to separate, but wanted to be sure that I considered everything so that it was done in a manner that was both safe and financially responsible. She helped guide me through the early steps of separation, all the way through drafting a parenting plan, negotiating a settlement and the final steps of my divorce. Our first meeting was about a year ago now, and looking back I'm certainly able to say that the relatively drama-free resolution of everything has been possible because she is capable, knowledgeable, and communicative. The nature of divorce itself can be stressful, but Tristen's approach is calming because of her straightforward manner and responsiveness. What it all has amounted to is a happier life for me and my kids.

Meeting with Tristen was like meeting with old friends. I felt comfortable the moment I walked in. Samantha at the front desk was amazing and everything was communicated to me perfectly. She was also wonderful in helping watch my special needs son as I needed a last minute consultation with Tristen and didn't have child care. Tristen immediately recognized the ways in which I was being taken for a ride in the paperwork I showed her and gave me reassurance and sound counsel! If I ever need representation in Snohomish County, Tristen will be the first person I reach out to!!

I initially started with a one-hour consultation with Tristen. It was a very emotional moment for me but Tristen was smart, courteous, professional, and kind and she could answer all my questions and walk me through the process. I was comfortable talking to her and her knowledge gave me confidence to hire her as my lawyer. She always made sure I know what was happening, explained to me everything I need to know and made sure I get what is fair. I am very smart but this is something I could not figure out on my own especially with the emotional toll it has on me. Note that me and my ex are both working professionals on a different field. Tristen was very diligent and worked with me in person, on the phone and in email. During the hearing, you can tell which lawyer was the smarter one and has done her homework, it was my lawyer Tristen. She is extremely smart, very diligent, very thorough, and would “fight” for me. I was very impressed with her. She was well prepared, she knew what she expected was going to happen and relayed that information to me and that is what happened. She’s extremely knowledgeable, she knows the system and the process and she can point out what mistakes the other party did. She knew the court would deny my ex’s demands because they filed it incorrectly and that they were asking for more than what was fair. She’s very hardworking, makes sure we are on track, and gets what I asked for or corrects me and makes sure I get what I deserve. My case is not over yet but I’m confident that with Tristen as my lawyer, I’ll get what I want and what is fair.

I consulted with Tristen approximately 4 months ago to start the ball rolling to end my long term marriage and end the life of domestic violence. Tristen and her team have been very kind, patient, and caring throughout this entire process. I have never been through legal proceedings such as this, although I did start divorce proceedings over 15 years ago, but lacked the courage to follow through, for many reasons. This time was different as I am a different person now and my ex not longer has my child to hold as leverage. With the knowledge that I was very concerned for my safety and the safety of my son, Tristen helped me to understand the options I had, given my circumstances. And though our original plan started on one path, an unforeseen event threw me onto a different path of needing to obtain a DV protection order, which Tristen guided me through while I was in a very emotional state resulting from the event.

I honestly felt like her propelling arguments at the temporary hearing are what landed me primary custody with my child. In addition to that, I went from a position of thinking I’d have to live in poverty to having a settlement big enough to go to school and get my life back on track. I also understand how uncommon it is to work with a legal team that works so hard to keep their fees low for their clients. Tristen makes top tier legal work affordable for people like me.

I hired Tristen to help with a legal separation. She was very knowledgeable and did everything possible that was in my best interest. Her communication throughout the process was excellent. Thanks to Tristen and Samantha, it was a painless process.

I am deeply appreciative of Tristen's representation in my divorce. I first met with her when I knew that I wanted to separate, but wanted to be sure that I considered everything so that it was done in a manner that was both safe and financially responsible. She helped guide me through the early steps of separation, all the way through drafting a parenting plan, negotiating a settlement and the final steps of my divorce. Our first meeting was about a year ago now, and looking back I'm certainly able to say that the relatively drama-free resolution of everything has been possible because she is capable, knowledgeable, and communicative. The nature of divorce itself can be stressful, but Tristen's approach is calming because of her straightforward manner and responsiveness. What it all has amounted to is a happier life for me and my kids.

Meeting with Tristen was like meeting with old friends. I felt comfortable the moment I walked in. Samantha at the front desk was amazing and everything was communicated to me perfectly. She was also wonderful in helping watch my special needs son as I needed a last minute consultation with Tristen and didn't have child care. Tristen immediately recognized the ways in which I was being taken for a ride in the paperwork I showed her and gave me reassurance and sound counsel! If I ever need representation in Snohomish County, Tristen will be the first person I reach out to!!

I initially started with a one-hour consultation with Tristen. It was a very emotional moment for me but Tristen was smart, courteous, professional, and kind and she could answer all my questions and walk me through the process. I was comfortable talking to her and her knowledge gave me confidence to hire her as my lawyer. She always made sure I know what was happening, explained to me everything I need to know and made sure I get what is fair. I am very smart but this is something I could not figure out on my own especially with the emotional toll it has on me. Note that me and my ex are both working professionals on a different field. Tristen was very diligent and worked with me in person, on the phone and in email. During the hearing, you can tell which lawyer was the smarter one and has done her homework, it was my lawyer Tristen. She is extremely smart, very diligent, very thorough, and would “fight” for me. I was very impressed with her. She was well prepared, she knew what she expected was going to happen and relayed that information to me and that is what happened. She’s extremely knowledgeable, she knows the system and the process and she can point out what mistakes the other party did. She knew the court would deny my ex’s demands because they filed it incorrectly and that they were asking for more than what was fair. She’s very hardworking, makes sure we are on track, and gets what I asked for or corrects me and makes sure I get what I deserve. My case is not over yet but I’m confident that with Tristen as my lawyer, I’ll get what I want and what is fair.

I consulted with Tristen approximately 4 months ago to start the ball rolling to end my long term marriage and end the life of domestic violence. Tristen and her team have been very kind, patient, and caring throughout this entire process. I have never been through legal proceedings such as this, although I did start divorce proceedings over 15 years ago, but lacked the courage to follow through, for many reasons. This time was different as I am a different person now and my ex not longer has my child to hold as leverage. With the knowledge that I was very concerned for my safety and the safety of my son, Tristen helped me to understand the options I had, given my circumstances. And though our original plan started on one path, an unforeseen event threw me onto a different path of needing to obtain a DV protection order, which Tristen guided me through while I was in a very emotional state resulting from the event. Tristen and her team show'd genuine concern for me and my safety and stayed in contact with me till I was safe. From that point the Key Law Team has been nothing but professional and concise in every instance regardless of mode of communication, i.e. email, phone, face to face. Every time I walk into the office I feel a sense of calm with the environment they present, which is so helpful at such a stressful time. I will admit I have not always been the best "client" as these times can cause emotions to guide our actions and Tristen has had to "talk me off the ledge" many times. Unfortunately she has also had to clean up the mess I made when I did not listen to her guidance. I strongly recommend Tristen and her team to anyone in need. They will not let you down, they truly are the experts!!!

We hired Tristen as representation for my grandaughter's custody case and parenting plan. Tristen was eloquent and educated-proving her experience and confidence to be unwavering. She understood the emotional aspects of going through an ugly court trial and did everything she could to accommodate us in every way she was able. Tristen was not the first attorney we consulted, but she was the one we hired because of her experience as a social worker and familiarity with our type of situation. I hope to not be involved in another predicament such as ours, but given the extremely favorable outcome I would not hesitate to hire her again. So happy with the results and so grateful for her reassurance.

From the first consultation session and throughout the entire legal process, Tristen Key eased my anxieties, provided ongoing and timely information and kept what was best for me at the center of all decisions. In talking with Tristen, it is quickly evident that she is smart, mastered the expertise in Family Law etc. specific to WA and prides herself in administering high quality service. The administrative/paralegal staff readily answered questions, quickly scheduled appointments and efficiently managed documents. I strongly recommend Key Law Offices to anyone seeking legal advice in the areas of Family Law, Divorce or Separation. You will be fully satisfied!!!

Tristen helped me through a tough time with a unexpected separation with my ex in Jan 2020. She consulted with compassion, provided crucial information and education regarding the matter, offered multiple choices of approaches with pros and cons. She is very professional and efficient! I am lucky to have her on my side of the ring!

Tristen helped me navigate my issue with a perfect balance of sensitive care and pragmatism to help me make the best choices for the situation. It was very tough to handle, but Tristen and Samantha both managed the emotions, time and communications required to get everything done. I would definitely return and will always refer my people to her office. I'm so grateful for the care I received. Thank you both.

She’s extremely knowledgeable, she knows the system and the process and she can point out what mistakes the other party did. She knew the court would deny my ex’s demands because they filed it incorrectly and that they were asking for more than what was fair. She’s very hardworking, makes sure we are on track, and gets what I asked for or corrects me and makes sure I get what I deserve. My case is not over yet but I’m confident that with Tristen as my lawyer, I’ll get what I want and what is fair.

I consulted with Tristen approximately 4 months ago to start the ball rolling to end my long term marriage and end the life of domestic violence. Tristen and her team have been very kind, patient, and caring throughout this entire process. I have never been through legal proceedings such as this, although I did start divorce proceedings over 15 years ago, but lacked the courage to follow through, for many reasons. This time was different as I am a different person now and my ex not longer has my child to hold as leverage. With the knowledge that I was very concerned for my safety and the safety of my son, Tristen helped me to understand the options I had, given my circumstances. And though our original plan started on one path, an unforeseen event threw me onto a different path of needing to obtain a DV protection order, which Tristen guided me through while I was in a very emotional state resulting from the event. Tristen and her team show'd genuine concern for me and my safety and stayed in contact with me till I was safe. From that point the Key Law Team has been nothing but professional and concise in every instance regardless of mode of communication, i.e. email, phone, face to face. Every time I walk into the office I feel a sense of calm with the environment they present, which is so helpful at such a stressful time. I will admit I have not always been the best "client" as these times can cause emotions to guide our actions and Tristen has had to "talk me off the ledge" many times. Unfortunately she has also had to clean up the mess I made when I did not listen to her guidance. I strongly recommend Tristen and her team to anyone in need. They will not let you down, they truly are the experts!!!

We hired Tristen as representation for my grandaughter's custody case and parenting plan. Tristen was eloquent and educated-proving her experience and confidence to be unwavering. She understood the emotional aspects of going through an ugly court trial and did everything she could to accommodate us in every way she was able. Tristen was not the first attorney we consulted, but she was the one we hired because of her experience as a social worker and familiarity with our type of situation. I hope to not be involved in another predicament such as ours, but given the extremely favorable outcome I would not hesitate to hire her again. So happy with the results and so grateful for her reassurance.

From the first consultation session and throughout the entire legal process, Tristen Key eased my anxieties, provided ongoing and timely information and kept what was best for me at the center of all decisions. In talking with Tristen, it is quickly evident that she is smart, mastered the expertise in Family Law etc. specific to WA and prides herself in administering high quality service. The administrative/paralegal staff readily answered questions, quickly scheduled appointments and efficiently managed documents. I strongly recommend Key Law Offices to anyone seeking legal advice in the areas of Family Law, Divorce or Separation. You will be fully satisfied!!!

Tristen helped me through a tough time with a unexpected separation with my ex in Jan 2020. She consulted with compassion, provided crucial information and education regarding the matter, offered multiple choices of approaches with pros and cons. She is very professional and efficient! I am lucky to have her on my side of the ring!

Tristen helped me navigate my issue with a perfect balance of sensitive care and pragmatism to help me make the best choices for the situation. It was very tough to handle, but Tristen and Samantha both managed the emotions, time and communications required to get everything done. I would definitely return and will always refer my people to her office. I'm so grateful for the care I received. Thank you both.

Putting Tristen and her team on my divorce case was the best decision I made for my future. I really could see the difference in preparedness and individual attention between my legal team and my ex’s. I honestly felt like her propelling arguments at the temporary hearing are what landed me primary custody with my child. In addition to that, I went from a position of thinking I’d have to live in poverty to having a settlement big enough to go to school and get my life back on track. I also understand how uncommon it is to work with a legal team that works so hard to keep their fees low for their clients. Tristen makes top tier legal work affordable for people like me.

I hired Tristen to help with a legal separation. She was very knowledgeable and did everything possible that was in my best interest. Her communication throughout the process was excellent. Thanks to Tristen and Samantha, it was a painless process.

I am deeply appreciative of Tristen's representation in my divorce. I first met with her when I knew that I wanted to separate, but wanted to be sure that I considered everything so that it was done in a manner that was both safe and financially responsible. She helped guide me through the early steps of separation, all the way through drafting a parenting plan, negotiating a settlement and the final steps of my divorce. Our first meeting was about a year ago now, and looking back I'm certainly able to say that the relatively drama-free resolution of everything has been possible because she is capable, knowledgeable, and communicative. The nature of divorce itself can be stressful, but Tristen's approach is calming because of her straightforward manner and responsiveness. What it all has amounted to is a happier life for me and my kids.

Meeting with Tristen was like meeting with old friends. I felt comfortable the moment I walked in. Samantha at the front desk was amazing and everything was communicated to me perfectly. She was also wonderful in helping watch my special needs son as I needed a last minute consultation with Tristen and didn't have child care. Tristen immediately recognized the ways in which I was being taken for a ride in the paperwork I showed her and gave me reassurance and sound counsel! If I ever need representation in Snohomish County, Tristen will be the first person I reach out to!!

I initially started with a one-hour consultation with Tristen. It was a very emotional moment for me but Tristen was smart, courteous, professional, and kind and she could answer all my questions and walk me through the process. I was comfortable talking to her and her knowledge gave me confidence to hire her as my lawyer. She always made sure I know what was happening, explained to me everything I need to know and made sure I get what is fair. I am very smart but this is something I could not figure out on my own especially with the emotional toll it has on me. Note that me and my ex are both working professionals on a different field. Tristen was very diligent and worked with me in person, on the phone and in email. During the hearing, you can tell which lawyer was the smarter one and has done her homework, it was my lawyer Tristen. She is extremely smart, very diligent, very thorough, and would “fight” for me.
