Jeff Eustis has worked a construction defect case with me that lasted about 5 years. I don’t believe the outcome would have been as positive if not for Jeff’s ability to stay the course and not let the details get lost. Jeff was a great team member and a leader. I will be calling him on the next issue.

We used Jeff to help finish a sub-division project and subsequently made him our Home Owner's Association Attorney. He was extremely instrumental in helping us with County reguations, creating Bylaws, Amending our Articles of Incorporation, other necessary governing documents, and deeds to convey inherited land at the time several years ago. Now as the Association attorney he is just as helpful and skilled in HOA matters, liens, forclosures if need be, and we trust him and could not do without him. AND, he has a great personality and sense of humor, rare in most lawyers we have known!

Attorney Erickson recently represented my nephew in a criminal case. She went above and beyond to provide him with top-notch representation. She extended compassion and kindness to him and impressed upon him that his future is brighter than he believes. I would not be afraid to recommend Attorney Erickson to anyone. She is not only a wonderful attorney but person as well.

I enjoyed working with Erik Bakke, he was very informative, and made me feel confident in my situation. Bankruptcy is a hard and embarrassing time and Erik helped me and my family through it as if we were family. I was on the cusp of Chapter 7 and Chapter 13, although it took more time and more effort Erik fought for me and he won the battle. I appreciate his professionalism and compassion, and will go to him again if I am ever in need of a Lawyer.

Erik knows his stuff and can be as tough as he needs to be. However, he is very sensitive to his clients' needs, both legal and personal, and works with them to achieve a satisfactory outcome. He knows his stuff, cares about his clients, and continues to serve even after "the case is closed." I would always trust Erik to help me!

He always took my worries and made me feel like I would get through it all, and he made sure everything worked out just fine.

Recently, I was in need of Admin Law help to deal with a State Agency. After reviewing several law firms I decided to go with Seattle Litigation, and I am glad I did. Jessica Creager was assigned my case. She had a very good handle on my issues and was very proactive. She balanced my needs with the system and provided an answer to the state that included no less than 4 issues that needed to be taken into account. She always listened to my message and I always felt she had my back. I followed her lead 100% of the time. It was definitely her pro-actions that got us to a very good solution. Also, when I reviewed my invoices I never felt that they were padding the charges. Bottom line I would have no hesitation to recommend Seattle Litgation/Jessica Creager for any of your litigation needs. --

We came across Jay when our application for adjustment of status was going nowhere. We couldn't get any answer as to why we didn't receive an interview date for my wife to get the green card. People I knew personally who immigrated to the US after, had gotten their green card fairly quick while my wife's was stuck in "limbo". The moment we started working with Jay, he was thorough on what might be the reasons for the delay and explained the entire situation from beginning to end and provided us with a number of options on how to proceed with our case. He immediately began to work towards a resolution and in under year he was to able secure us an interview and my wife's green card. He is attentive to your concerns and has plenty of insight.

Our group hired Ryan when a government organization near our homes announced a project that had not gone through the proper CEQA and Coastal Development Permit environmental reviews. Ryan succeeded in preserving the public's right to be heard and in getting the organization to conform to the laws to which they should have conformed all along. The briefs, declarations and letters he wrote on our behalf were strong and thorough. Throughout the process, Ryan was always accessible, responsive, professional and fair in his billings. He was also very understanding of our lack of knowledge of the complicated CEQA and coastal laws and processes and he was always patient in explaining them to us. If we ever have another need for an environmental, land use or government agency attorney, we will call Ryan Moroney immediately.

Ryan Moroney handled the case for the group Save Our Big Trees for which I am the spokesperson.

Always available, prompt to return emails and phone calls, clear in his explanations and knowledgable on the issues. He wrote a brilliant brief and response. His passion for protecting the environment was evident throughout our interactions. I would highly recommend him without any reservations.

When an environmentally sensitive habitat on and adjacent to our property was damaged by an unpermitted project, we needed help finding the most cost-effective path to obtain restoration and protection from continuing damage. Ryan helped us understand our alternatives, seek public records, draft a petition, complete discovery, prepare for trial and, after we received a favorable decision in trial, work out terms of a settlement agreement. Attorneys from other firms working on our case thought he did great work, too. He is knowledgeable, friendly, hardworking, confident and honest. I would not hesitate to work with him in the future.

Results! If I had to choose one word to describe Fox that would be it! From the very start he handled my case professionally and on more than one occasion he would predict what action the opposing party would enact with precise accuracy. Fox's expertise is unsurpassed. During the entire time he worked my case I felt confident I had picked the right man for the job. It was absolutely amazing to watch the strategic maneuvers Fox implemented throughout the process. It was as if I was watching a master chess player. He walked me through the process and we were completely prepared come trial time. Mr. Fox understood exactly what I wanted with my trial and in the end the Judge granted my motion and more! Like I said, Results! I will forever be grateful to Mr. Fox. Thank you. Thank you.

I can’t say enough about Fox to adequately convey his intelligent strategies, discretion and overall excellent knowledge and preparation of/for a trial. As my case was nearing the trial date, my former attorney was trying to scare me into settling, telling me I had no choice, telling me to concede and pay an exorbitant settlement. It became clear to me she was not prepared and not comfortable in a trial situation. I sought a second opinion from Fox and within days of meeting with him, he was up to speed on the details of my case, explained what the possible outcomes could be from the trial and that I actually had a strong case to go to trial. Immediately after relieving my former attorney and hiring Mr. Fox, he had discovery materials and subpoenas served, filed motions in support of my case and prepared me for trial. While the outcome of my day in court was not what I wished for, it was better than I could ever have hoped for without Fox. I ended up with a much better deal than I had thought possible thanks to Fox.

I was impressed from the start, and throughout the pending matter. Matt asked very direct questions and got to the bottom of a complicated issue fast, and prepared a responding motion quickly. He and Adam worked well together and caught several discrepancies in the opposing legal filing which proved it was false. He presented my case concisely before the judge. Very professional. I was pleased with how Matt was sensitive to extra expenses which would be incurred if we took a certain route, which we eventually did not; that to me is a mark of integrity. The matter was resolved exactly as I hoped, and I will definitely recommend this team to anyone who needs an attorney.

Matt represented me regarding contempt charges against my ex for his refusal to follow the conditions of the divorce decree and turn over assets to me. Complicated and difficult case and I am so very thankful he was on my side representing me. He argued on my behalf so brilliantly and fiercely that my friends who attended the hearing to support me told me afterward how impressed they were with his tenacity, skill, and knowledge. He stood up for me and did not let the opposing attorney get away with a single one of his attempts to twist the truth. Cannot praise Matt and his firm highly enough! I could not have endured the very long and extremely contentious hearing without Matt on my side fighting for me. I don't know how he could argue so well for so long (2 hours!) without making a mistake or showing emotion with what the opposing attorney was claiming, but he did. So instead of feeling completely stressed, I was able to sit back, relax, and let him handle it all. I feel If had hired a lawyer from another firm, I truly would have been in trouble. I hope I never need legal representation again but if I do, I will call BlackClay immediately. Honest, reputable, knowledgable, and fight very hard! Highly, highly recommend!

Sometimes in life you find yourself in bad situations that unfortunately you put yourself in. I had made my mind up that I was going to admit my guilt and go at a charge alone, and I'm very pleased I didn't. I met with Chris and he was very knowledgeable and seemed excited to help me out, and after short deliberation with my wife we decided to hire him. He worked hard for me and always took the time to explain what was going on. There are always going to be consequences when you break the law but its great to have someone like Chris on your side to fight for the best possible outcome.

He resolved the issue was very attentive and I can't express how happy I was to have found him.

The legal proceedings frustratingly took over a year. Barry kept me well informed throughout the matter. I put a lot of trust in Barry since I have no legal knowledge. He was well prepared at each court appearance and referred me to the needed expert witnesses for my case. I am very happy with how Barry handled my case and would highly recommend him.

Peter Alfinito did an excellent job of representing me. I was involved in a minor car accident in which I was legally at fault because I had the stop sign, even though it fell into a 'gray area' as to who was responsible, based on the circumstances. I contacted several attorneys by phone to determine who I wanted to represent me. I was impressed by Peter's credentials. He asked questions, explained the legality, and calmed me down, since I was very upset about the situation. Peter gave me a reminder call to confirm that I would be available on the court date and to review the process. Peter is very professional.

Steven worked with me diligently during a horrible divorce and custody battle. Not only did he work closely with my other attorney, but he also showed something very few attorney's do, compassion. He was so dedicated to making sure my family and the best outcome was what we got. He was able to truly, with my other attorney, my voice to be heard in court and went above and beyond to communicate and meet with me, even if it was out of the way for him. I have never had such a pleasant experience with Attorney Ballard in my corner with my other counsel and it was great to see someone truly care about justice and what it right vs wrong. I cannot thank him enough for his efforts and highly recommend him to anyone who needs someone that will fight for you and what matters most. He also has a great blog that is worth reading that gives you a great insight to just what kind of attorney he is and that is also what put my mind at ease when going in to trial during my divorce.

My life would be drastically different had I not employed the compassionate, understanding, effective, pragmatic, good humored, wise and tough advocacy services of Steven Ballard. Against the odds of a slowly changing court system that has traditionally favored only mothers as able and willing caregivers Steven blazed a trail that will afford my children the good fortune of being with their father a fair equitable and exact 50% of their lives. From hopeless despair through humble and triumphant success Steven was there every step of the way providing whatever I needed legally and emotionally while staying true and focused on the big picture with integrity. Regardless of gender he will stand up for you and for what is just and fair no matter your circumstance.

Attorney Ballard is sensitive, caring, intelligent, talented, congenial and so much more. He stood for me with dignity in difficult circumstances and challenged injustice. Regardless of the adversity he remained true. I have recently been reviewing his work and found that it was far more impressive than it seemed at the time. He subtlety wove into his work a richness that is uncommon. Having him on your side is to have integrity in your corner.
