Attorney Mr. Arusi Loprinzi of Perkins Law is a bright shining star. He rapidly stopped harassing communication with a cease and desist demand letter and negotiated terms regarding a property buyout. Throughout the process he listened attentively and communicated clearly, efficiently, and promptly. He knew the law, advocated for my best interest, and was direct with his recommendations regarding action steps. He solved two of my major life stressors in just a few weeks, out of court, with a favorable outcome.
Anyone can read Mr. Loprinzi’s accolades on his bio/CV demonstrating that he is highly intelligent and experienced, but he is more than that. There is depth to him. There is kindness. Through the words he writes and in his attention to detail, he demonstrates care and compassion. The care is communicated by his timing and dedication. His compassion is communicated with thoughtful reflection of seeing all sides and possible outcomes.
As I said to him at the end of the case, the words “thank you” do not adequately communicate the gratitude that I feel for Mr. Loprinzi. There is a special appreciation that forms when one literally restores your peace, safety and resolves a personal crisis. There is no adequate way to convey that depth of gratitude. I hold Mr. Loprinzi in high regard and have tremendous respect for him.
You want this attorney in your corner and his boxing gloves are already on, ready to fight for you.

To Whom It May Concern,
I am compelled to pen this recommendation to assist you in what could be one of your most pivotal decisions. Several years ago, I found myself entangled in a domestic dispute and made the decision to enlist the services of Attorney Arusi. From the onset, Arusi's approach was remarkably personal. He extended his ear to truly listen and empathized with my situation, making me feel more like a friend than a client during our initial meeting. His transparency and insight into the intricacies of the legal system were not only enlightening but also grounded in realism.
Attorney Arusi exhibited a tenacious commitment to my case, demonstrating an almost inexhaustible work ethic that made it seem as though he was tirelessly working round-the-clock. His communication was both persistent and timely; I was regularly updated with calls during the early hours of the morning or late at night, reassuring me that my case was receiving the ceaseless vigilance of a special ops team.
Ethically unimpeachable, Arusi showed a strategic boldness in his proceedings, unafraid to assertively make his presence felt to ensure that my voice was heard. His advocacy for my rights, particularly as a father, was unwavering. His correspondences were a bastion of truth, displaying a strategic acumen that left no stone unturned.
Watching Attorney Arusi in the courtroom was witnessing a master at work – his legal acumen was nothing short of formidable, and I found myself almost in sympathy with the opposition due to his commanding presence and strategy. In the end, Arusi's efforts culminated in a victory for my case, and he was more than prepared to represent me through to the very last gavel strike.
Without hesitation, I can assert that Arusi will forever be my initial contact for any legal matters, especially those of a domestic nature. If you seek a legal representative who exudes the precision and dedication of an elite operative, then I implore you to consider Attorney Arusi to champion your cause.
Sincerely,
Jameson

Arusi helped me through quite possibly the most difficult time in my life. He was caring, professional, knowledgeable and realistic. He was quick to respond to any emails and phone calls and always shot me straight. We ended up successful in court and he made the very difficult and emotional process of divorce so much easier. He gave me confidence to keep fighting for the outcome my children and I needed. He helped me feel safe and like I had someone fighting for my family's needs that genuinely cared about the income. I would whole heartedly recommend him to anyone who needs a compassionate, knowledgeable, personable attorney. He was amazing. I really cannot say enough good about him. Thank you for everything Arusi!

I am so happy I called Barry. He went above and beyond for me, while he was sick at home with covid, before I even had officially hired him! Barry is an outstanding guy, and a true defender of the innocent, at least to me. He is worth every penny, and so is his lovely assistant, Denise. This is a strong team you can count on to be there for you and to really defend you

I was referred to Barry from a friend who had used him and was really pleased in his services. After a consulting with Barry I knew we should hire him. He was amazing! Barry kept in good contact with any updates that were happening. He or his Paralegal were always friendly and available. His services were life changing for my son. Sometimes you find yourself in situation you never thought you would be in an and this was one of them. Hopefully we will never need Barry again but if circumstances happen we would hire him in a minute.

Profitt law is one of the best HOA Law firms in the northwest. I have worked with other firms and finally found a home with Profitt law. Kathleen and Vicky are amazing they make you feel like you are their only client when you stop by or when you call. Working with this firm isn’t like any other firm, some firms that are large you feel like they provide a service and send you a bill. This firm makes you feel like they are here for you and only you; they make you feel like you are important and they are your HOA partner. After working with Profitt Law for almost a year now I can honestly say I am a customer for life! If you and your board want a law firm that is there for you, always has your HOA in the best interest and you want someone you can trust then choose Profitt Law you won’t be sorry!

I found this attorney to be extremely knowledgeable in her specific area of expertise, i.e. condo law, in addition to being extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of the general practice of law.
She was also very responsive as I was always able to reach her when needed to discuss various aspects of the case. and she kept me totally informed at all times.
She listened to what I had to say about the case and we had a very co-operative and mutual exchange of ideas as, unlike many other attorneys with whom i have worked with, she realized that the client knows more about his or her case than anyone else; and ,therefore is someone whom the attorney should listen to.
I was extraordinarily impressed with her knowledge of all of the facts of the case and the law and her willingness to "dig" for all of the pertinent facts and law.
One aspect of her handling of the case that most impressed me was her willingness to go the extra mile and learn about other matters that were going to have an impact on the case. She did whatever it took to make certain that we would prevail.
She was unquestionably willing to stand up for my rights in the most difficult of circumstances when many another lawyer would have backed off. But she also knew when to compromise and work with the opposition at the right time to amicable settle the case. In other words, her judgment skills were impeccable--- something that is not taught in law school and that is lacked by many an attorney.
Finally, although not really of any consequence when compared with making certain one wins and everything else that is involved with litigation, she was very reasonable with her legal fees.
I was extraordinarily impressed with this attorney on all levels and would very highly recommend her to anyone.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Christian! My case drug on for nearly two years and I wanted to give in multiple times. Christian encouraged me to not give up and gave sound advice on how to keep proceeding. He was very clear with how my case was proceeding and forwarded all emails/correspondence from the opposing counsel to keep me well informed of what was going on. I most definitely would not have been able to do what he did on my own and I am forever grateful for his very professional help through a very trying time of life.

Words fall short in expressing my gratitude for Christian. With great dignity and care, Christian worked to help me navigate a long and emotional parenting time matter. Throughout all the work on my case, Christian remained transparent, honest, and always gave attention to detail. I never wanted to have to take the road through the courts, unfortunately circumstances called for legal support and I am very grateful I chose Christian to represent me. I highly recommend Christian's services.

Hiring Conrad was clearly the right choice. He was prompt, professional, and resolved my case in my favor quickly and efficiently. Not only that, but he put up with my many after hours phone calls and emails, going out of his way to answer all of my (admittedly excessive) questions.

Conrad is proactive in understanding the case, and constructing and communicating a straightforward game plan. His knowledge of the law, attention to detail, provision of a timeline with periodic updates, including next steps and what to expect, put me at ease throughout the process. Conrad collaborated with other colleagues for additional expertise whenever the case veered a direction beyond the scope of his daily practice. When unforeseen obstacles surfaced, Conrad met them head on with calm, intelligent redirect to the law and desired resolution. His writing and articulation are clever and strong; he is distinctly professional, but by no means a pushover. He is laser focused on the best outcome for his client. You can’t find a better lawyer.

Conrad won an extremely complicated real estate case for us at jury trial out of town, which was a terrifying experience; then successfully navigated the process for us when they appealed. Calm, focused, professional and respected by the judges. Highly recommend Zubel PC without hesitation. Areas of the law he has helped us tremendously with: real estate, rescission, land sale contracts, insurance policy review & claims, DEQ, dealing with a dishonest commercial lender.

I was in a minor fender bender in 2001. After wasting two days on the phone with the insurances, my husband told me to find a lawyer. I found Mr. Dalton and he even reffered me to a chropractor, who in turn sent me to a message theropist. If I had not found him I would have been in pain and not able to seek treatment till after I delivered.

We've used "Bill" Gibson a few times and have recommended him to family and friends. He has always been very down to earth in explaining and making sure we understand all aspects of a case. Unlike some attorney's he watches out for the client. We've know him for years through his attorney work and have come to consider him an acquaintance/friend.

Other than a very quick and impersonal Arbitration, he was knowledgable with my case because he took the time to read it thoughally before we arrived. He knew the facts and granted me the full award I was seeking. I appreciated his fairness and his demeanor with the Plaintiff who did not deserve any sympathy. His Assistant Joy was also professinal and helpful.

Nikk is very knowledgeable and competent in employment law practice. In my particular case, not only did he take his time to understand my unique situation and need, his extensive knowledge and legal experience with uncompromising dedication to doing the most thorough work that was effective at outlining a good strategy and executing against it. I would highly recommend Nik’s services.
I thank him humbly and gratefully and have already recommended him to others as someone who I consider an expert in his field and will continue to do so.

I retained Mr. Knox as a criminal defense attorney in September 2021 after being arrested for a false felony DV charge and associated misdemeanor charges after an argument with my ex-partner.
Mr. Knox visited me while in jail and said I needed to provide $10k upfront to take my case. At first he seemed understanding, knowledgeable, and engaged but that quickly shifted.
After our initial meeting upon release from jail, he was mostly uncommunicative about the case, not responding to multiple inquires for weeks at a time, not even from his paralegals or office staff. He provided no information to me that I needed to hire a separate civil/family lawyer to deal with custody/visitation issues for my infant daughter, despite multiple inquires about that process. When I discovered that separately and asked him about it, he referred me to another attorney that actively made the situation with my ex worse. When I asked about what I could do proactively to demonstrate my willingness to comply with the legal process, he off-handedly said "Go register for one of those DV Intervention programs or whatever the [F-word] they are called".
At our plea bargain in Feb 2022, he seemed more interested in sharing the fact that he knew the assistant DA personally than he did about the details of my case. When I protested that the assistant DA was repeating the lies my ex was spinning to the court, he told me to "shut up or you'll ruin everything". He did not attempt to counter them in any way.
He allowed a No Contact Order against my infant daughter to be part of the felony plea down to misdemeanor, even though she was not harmed or involved in the incident in any way other than being 5 weeks old and in the room at the time. This allowed my ex to keep our daughter from me for the 2 years of my probation, without even sharing pictures or updates. He seemed completely uninterested with my concerns of being prevented from parenting my infant (and only) child. At no point did he share with me the evidence provided in the police arrest report that demonstrated I was not guilty of the felony, or question the poorly conducted investigation in any way.
When I asked him, at the plea bargain, what his experience was with this kind of case, he hemmed and hawed, and only after multiple direct inquiries did he acknowledge he had never argued a felony DV case in trial. He was pushing the plea bargain because that is all he knew how to do. He had previously explained the risk of going to felony trial, but not that he had no experience doing so until pressed directly as we were walking into the courtroom. At no point did he disclose what the negative ramifications of pleading guilty to the misdemeanor could/would be.
After the conviction and sentencing, he did not tell me anything about the probation requirement for immediately signing up for a Probation Officer, and I almost got an immediate probation violation. Within a few weeks of the plea bargain, he removed himself from representing me.
He flat out did not know what he was doing, and rather than disclose that while I was under duress in jail, he took my $10K, did the bare minimum, and jumped ship as soon as possible. I lost my home, job, professional license, standing in my business community, friends, relationship with family members, and 2 years of my infant daughter's life because of his incompetence on a case that multiple other attorneys have since said was easily winnable. He didn't even try.
He is a personal injury attorney that has no experience taking complex criminal defense cases to trial, and his mishandling of this case ruined my entire life. I would sue him for ethical misconduct and misrepresentation, but the 2 year statute of limitations has passed. I am reporting him to the bar for malpractice without disclosing his lack of experience.
Do not hire him for complex criminal defense representation.

Bill and his assistants were all extremely helpful and easy to work with. He resolved my case swiftly and without issue.

I called Blake my law bodyguard while he was working on my case because that is truly what it felt like. I had never even considered suing someone before my burn accident and I barely had the confidence to pursue a settlement when I came to Blake with my questions. Both he and the paralegal on my case, Wendy were very sympathetic to my situation and gave me the confidence to get my life back after my accident. I was terrified of the person who caused my accident and I didn't have to speak to him once. He even referred us to someone who could help mediate our differences. I feel so lucky to have found Blake and Wendy. Do yourself a favor and give them a call (which by the way they replied to faster than any of the other lawyers I called about my case).

I filed a restraining/move-out order against my former partner, who had become increasingly angry, abusive, and I feared violence from him. I wanted to be sure that he would not be allowed back into my home so I hired Greg Oliveros to represent me. My former partner was challenging the order so we went to court. Before the hearing Greg went to talk with him. He told him that he had about a 1% chance of winning and he negotiated a settlement of the case. It has been an incredible relief to have it over with! Greg is very kind, thorough and has a heart. I recommend him unconditionally! His staff is absolutely wonderful, too. :)

I was very disappointed with the service I got especially for the tens of thousands I was charged. I had trouble getting anyone to return phone calls and emails yet when they wanted more money they hounded me for days and their collections guy was just this side of Guido. In the end they wouldn't help me anymore if I didn't pay them another $5k. Everything was done at the last minute and offers were done without my consent. It was basically damage control with absolutely no real concern for me as a client. As a matter of fact I got more information from my ex and their lawyer than I did from my own. When they did respond to my emails it was with responses like talk soon, and will look into it but I got charged every time for that. When I emailed to check on status because they didn't update me same thing, full charge even when I had to repeatedly request information because they did not get back to me, they blew through 5k every two months with no progress. I got charged many thousands to sit down wi a “paralegal “ that they fired and days of data supplied by me was simply lost. A true spousal support discrepancy was deemed “ indefensible “ by Mr. Oliveras and the last time I was innhis office he had more due diligence watching a basketball game during the “session “. They dropped me during settlement negotiations and really should be charged with legal malpractice. Then I ended up defending myself as when I got upset on unapproved settlement terms they told me that I was recorded on their phones and that “Greg would review my recording as to what they would continue to “represent “ me - lol. In the end my ex and I managed to come together and settle it ourselves with my ex's lawyer writing it up, filing it, and my ex giving me a copy of the agreement because my lawyer couldn't be bothered. If for some reason I ever need a lawyer again I will not choose this firm. It has put me off all lawyers, and I hope to never see this team of lazy salespeople again. I am ordained and this was already a very rough situation for me and was contentious in the beginning which is why I was looking for the assistance of a lawyer in the first place even though I didn't really have the money they wanted. Sadly nobody would help me or even cared or even asked about my disabled child at home or showed any concern about my financial reversal. This is the service I got. I'm way worse off financially now all to get an agreement that my ex and I made together with no help from the big 007 Oliveras Law Group.

I hired this attorney to assist me with a personal legal issue. He soon became overly personal and very unprofessional. He had no regard whatsoever for my legal situation and instead initiated personal calls after hours to my home. He was selfish and acted extremely out of context. Our legal situation was ultimately unresolved costing us thousands of dollars and time. This attorney needs to revisit his ethics and how his actions effect others. We do not recommend him and would not hire him!

This "attorney" took payment for a very simple case. On two occasions, he failed to file paperwork on my behalf which resulted in a summary judgment against me. He is a very poor attorney. Prior to his disciplinary hearing that I filed, he called and left me a message that he would like to give me a refund (over 2 years later!). HOWEVER...I have called and left several messages trying to get the refund he offered. Not a single call was returned.

I am a single case, so I can't speak to her broader treatment of clients, but I feel discarded and ignored. We went to her to get a revocable living trust. We initially waited 2 months to see her, due to her workload. I should have taken this as a sign. It's now been about 9 months since we finally signed our papers and we still don't have copies of them. She virtually never answers the phone, and never returns calls when I leave messages. I've sent 9-10 emails since May of 2018, and she has answered exactly 2 of them, both saying that she was sorry for being busy. The last one said she'd get back to us in a week... that was more than a month ago, and she's back to ignoring us. We gave up and are moving on to a new attorney. I'd really love to get copies of the paperwork we already paid for (in time, tears and cash), but I'm no longer holding my breath.
In terms of the quality of the work in creating the paperwork, I have every faith that she did diligent work. She asked lots of good questions and helped us think through many contingencies that we hadn't previously considered. In the 2 actual meetings we had with her, she displayed the kind of care I had hoped for, and was in fact why we chose her.
Unfortunately, after all of that... we have nothing to show for it. Since that last meeting in May of last year, we were so casually and so thoroughly discarded, you'd think she had retired. Because of this, I not only cannot recommend her, personally, but I must actively caution you against choosing her. It's not worth the frustration.
