My paralegal, Tanya, and I work closely to maximize your outcome and minimize your emotional toll. Our goal is to create a durable solution for your family law issue.. founded O’Loane Law Group with my mother, Rodi Hartney O’Loane, after fifteen years of family law experience on my own. After Rodi retired in 2019, I maintained the law firm as a solo practitioner. I focus my practice on all aspects of family law – in litigation and in mediation. My primary goal is to help you create a durable solution for your family law issue..

Both approaches have made me a better “outside the box” family law attorney. I am honored to help people navigate a difficult time in their lives, whether it is through litigation or mediation.

Patrick Songy

Firm: Deno Millikan Law Firm, PLLC , PLLC
3411 Colby Avenue , Everett , Washington 98201
Practice Areas: Family
Since being admitted to the practice of law in 2007, I have been a trial attorney.. I spent my first five years as an assistant public defender in Bradenton, FL, where I more or less lived in a court room. I acted as trial counsel, a division chief, appellate counsel, and a liason to diversionary programs. I had the fortune of trying many jury trials, including mandatory life cases.. In 2012, I started working in civil litigation in Sarasota, FL. I represented plaintiffs exclusively. This time period provided me with very valuable education. I had the benefit of very good attorney mentors who taught me an enormous amount about trial craft, negotiation strategy, and many of the finer techinical points of legal practice.. In 2015, my family made the decision to move to Washington. After briefly practicing on my own, I joined the firm of Deno Millikan, PLLC. At Deno Millikan, I practice primarily in the areas of family law, criminal law, and personal injury. Working with such an experienced group of attorneys with such a broad legal background has allowed me to continue expanding my practice and get the best possible results for my clients.

Stephanie Petersen

3411 Colby Ave , Everett , Washington 98201
Practice Areas: Family
I am a partner at Deno Millikan Law Firm, PLLC. I’m a trial lawyer, and I use my legal skills to help my clients in a broad variety of cases. I’ve been honored by the Willamette University College of Law in Salem, Oregon by serving as Note and Comment Editor of the Willamette Law Review.. I’ve been identified as a Washington State “Super Lawyer” by Washington Law and Politics Magazine in 2003. I’ve been active in the Snohomish County Bar Association, and in 2010 served as Trustee, being elected as Vice President in 2011, and the Snohomish County Bar President for the year 2012. I continually work with other attorneys and in seminars to develop better and better trial skills. Part of that work has been through training offered to trial attorneys in the Spence Trial Lawyers College regional programs. The fact is, that most legal trials are battles involving the mind, persuasion and advocacy, but often not recognized is the fact that trials become matters of the heart as well. Developing these skills and my caring for my clients’ issues has been the key to success for me, and for my clients.. Snohomish County is the place where I was born and the place where I grew up. This community shaped my vision of who I wanted to be in the world and how I wanted to live. The values that I grew up with are the value of hard work and the satisfaction that comes from hard work, the value of integrity in dealing with my clients, my associates, the Courts and opposing attorneys. Finally, I was taught and enjoy the happiness that comes from helping someone else. These values led me to become a lawyer, and these values are a cornerstone of who I am as a lawyer and in helping my clients resolve their important and difficult problems.. My work as a trial lawyer encompasses a variety of legal areas, most of which may require a skilled negotiator or advocate at trial. Complex divorces, personal injury cases, and difficult commercial and business problems occupy the bulk of my legal time.However, we live in a community that has a lot of non-trial problems, involving leases, contracts, land disputes, and all sorts of other problems. Helping my clients solve their weighty problems is one of my favorite parts of the legal profession.  I also serve as an arbitrator with Snohomish County’s Mandatory Arbitration Program.. I always knew that I would return to Everett after finishing law school, to raise my family here. I love being able to share the same things with my daughter that I enjoyed as a kid. Whether it is skiing at Stevens Pass with my family and friends, walking though the Evergreen State Fair on a rainy August afternoon or hauling in a crab pot off Whidbey Island, this is the place that grounds me.. If you are reading this and looking for an attorney, give me a call or email me at  and let’s talk about the solutions that may be available to you.

I am not a detached lawyer but a lawyer who truly cares about the outcome of each and every aspect of their case.
