Hi, I’m Melissa Hall a personal attorney in Seattle
At Smol Law, I’m committed to providing inclusive and understanding legal services. I have a special focus on chosen families, queer people, people who are gender non-confirming and others who might hesitate to use a traditional lawyer. I can practice anywhere in Washington State. Whether you’re navigating a legal name change, growing your family or need support with other legal matters, I’m here to stand by your side. My practice is built on respect, empowerment, and a deep understanding of the unique challenges faced by the communities I serve.
