Alisheva did an incredible job with my immigration case. She was able to do what other lawyers couldn't do for 30 years. In less than a year i was able to finally return to my home town in mexico and also have my work permit. Highly recommend her for any immigration issues you might have!

Having no experience with legal issues before, I was completely lost when I was arrested for DUI out of state. Luckily, Winnie met me at the door and within minutes had the ball rolling. Receiving a DUI from a different state as a WA resident adds an extra level of difficulty as you get to deal with two DOL's instead of just one. They were able to have my suspensions run concurrently which saved me about 6 months of time and expenses. I highly recommend them.

JOHN WAS THE HARDEST WORKING PERSON I EVER MET. HIS WORK ETHIC AND COMMUNITION WITH ME DURING MY CASE WAS AN AWESOME EXPERIENCE. HE WAS SO OUT THE BOX WITH ALOT OF HIS IDEAS. I WAS VERY PLEASED ON HOW OFTEN HE WAS THINKING OF MY CASE SPECIFICALLY. JOHN WAS EXTREMELY GOOD AT COMMUNICATING WITH ME OFTEN. HE KEPT ME UP TO DATE, EVEN IF THERE WERE MANY MONTHS BETWEEN COURT DATES.
JOHN IS KNOWN AND WELL RESPECTED IN THE JUSTICE SYSTEM. WHEN HE WAS IN FRONT OF THE JUDGE, HE WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND YOU COULD TELL HE HAS HAD MANY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN THE COURT ROOM.
I WAS INNOCENT ON MY CHARGES AND HE BELIEVED ME FROM THE START. ALTHOUGH IT TOOK SOME TIME, MY CASE ENDED EXACTLY HOW IT SHOULD HAVE. FULL DISMISSAL OF ALL CHARGES.
I CREDIT ALOT OF THAT DUE TO JOHN'S HARD WORK AND EXPERIENCE AS A FORMER CHIEF PROSECUTOR.
I WOULD RECOMMEND USING JOHN WHEN YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO LOOSE !!!!!

I hired Ed to take over as my attorney from another divorce attorney that charged me several thousands to get absolutely no where in my divorce. He was compassionate and to the point advising me with no empty promises. He was able to completely resolve the case in a timely manner. I wish I had hired his office first.

I do not even know where to start on how fortunate I was to have Ed and Spencer on my side for a brutal divorce proceeding. I will summarize how awesome Ed and his team were, but I really want to highlight his ability to be caring and to listen throughout the two year battle. This was an emotionally draining and a hard two year fight. Ed was extremely honest with me and didn’t play games wasting time. I was always kept informed and knew my options.
Ed was relentless and knew the law which ultimately lead to us winning at trial. From the day he took my case I put full trust into him and I feel this was such a success because of that. He knows the law and is phenomenal at trial in front of a judge!
Ed was very thorough and was always very forthcoming on what he needed from me. I had to trust him though the process and I’m so glad I did. My ex was a complete liar and fabricated so many lies throughout the two years, there were multiple contempts and hearings while we waited for trial. Ed was always on his A game and was able to shut down the other side without issues.
Ultimately, Ed and his team were always very well prepared and he knew my case inside and out. He was able to come out on top of the divorce proceedings and got more than I ever thought possible from trial. This was all due to his due diligence in the case. Do not hesitate hiring him!!

Eric is an exceptional lawyer and person. He provided great advice through out my deal, helped negotiate issues with the seller, and provided analysis on the risk of each situation. Furthermore, Eric was prompt in his responses and in getting the due diligence and closing docs done in time! Another thing that makes Eric stick out from the rest, is his use of software. Eric utilizes his own portal to store all your documents, invoices and sets up a slack with you to facilitate quick communication. Lastly, Eric’s transparent pricing allowed me to make sure that I know what I was paying for with no surprise fees.
I strongly recommend Eric and his services to anyone who is looking for legal counsel.

A job well done Eric, thank you for your kindness and devotion to helping me with my business needs!

Kristi came highly recommended by a long time District Court Judge. He described her legal ability as second to none in the area. Following a vicious pit bull attack while on duty as a Deputy Sheriff, I retained Kristi who works as a team with Jay Flynn. Kristi formulted a plan for the case and began sending me to doctors for formal and professionally documented evaluations. After a year of medical examinations from the defense and our side, The defense requested to mediate. This is where Kristi's ability really shined. For sake of a long description, Kristi's negotiating skills with the Insurance company was BRILLIANT. We had an initial offer of $100K to $125K to $145K. Ultimately she secured me a $220,000 settlement with reduced cost to L&I. I was so pleased with the out come. She was outstanding in every way!

I can't begin to say how much I appreciate the time and effort Kristina put on my case. I was injured in an auto accident and Kristina kept working for me to get the best result possible. It took a little bit longer than average, but it was worth it as Kristina worked with me, kept me informed every step of the way and always discussed my options. I wound u with a little more than I expected and it was a result of Kristina's work and belief in my case. If you are in need of someone who honestly cares about you more than a percentage of your settlement, call Kristina!

Kristi is very smart and works her butt off to make sure her clients get the most out of their resolvement. She knows the laws like most Pastors know the bible. I was amazed by her knowledge and the power she presented in a court room. Kristi is an amazing lawyer and I would recommend her and Jay to anyone needing legal representation for personal injury

Did I mention integrity? Mr. Shultz came recommended by an attorney in Spokane. When meeting with him, he explains the pros and cons of each option, with patience and clarity, often providing examples from his decades of experience. He is well connected in the legal and business communities. He follows up on his commitments EXACTLY as agreed upon. He usually takes calls out of the blue, and when he doesn't, he readily returns calls, generally that day. He has never talked down to my wife or I, and is a gentleman to the core. He is a extremely pleasant individual with a great sense of humor. After hiring him to resolve an issue with a deadbeat contractor, which he did, he has provided me advice on other legal concerns without asking for reimbursement. Overall, his time and cost charges are extremely fair and reasonable. We put 5K down as a retainer, and received a good portion back after the issue was resolved. He has in depth knowledge and experience in a wide swath of legal areas. In the legal field of the Tri City area, Mr. Schultz is a blinding white beacon among a plethora of dim lights. He is the ONLY lawyer I would recommend PERIOD.

My wife and I were involved in a motorcycle accident that injured us both. We would never have been able to navigate everything Mr. Reinig took care of. Bill is kind, compassionate, experienced, and extremely skilled in his craft, which is making sure his clients are compensated for their injuries, ours having been a motorcycle accident. He was not only in consistent communication with us, but he was persistent in communicating with all parties involved and getting our case resolved. I have much appreciation for the job he did on our behalf and I am truly grateful he was here in the Tri Cities when this event happened.
Thank you Bill for a job well done!

Prior to having Bill as my legal counsel I had never had any need for an attorney. I was injured in an auto accident in 2015 & had no idea where to turn, so I asked my chiropractor if he could recommend anyone to me. I didn't want to just pick someone out of the Yellow Pages or from an online ad.
Much to my delight my chiropractor recommended Bill Reinig to me. He & his son Zach pretty much held my hand throughout the rather lengthy process. I was always kept in the loop & each step was painstakingly spelled out for me by them. When all was said & done my settlement far exceeded what I was expecting. So this is end of the story, right ? But wait there's more !
The settlement check was mailed to me. It was a 5 digit check. I took it to my bank to be deposited & the ATM machine ate it & did NOT give me credit for the deposit ! I tried for an entire week to get this resolved with my bank, but it just wasn't happening. They were telling me that it would take as much as 45 days for this to be resolved. I was beyond frustrated. So, as a last resort I called Bill's office & explained to Cindy what had happened. This was on a Friday at about noon. Bill was out of the office until the following Wednesday. The office staff typically leaves the office at 1 PM on Fridays. The bookkeeper was out until sometime the following week. Cindy called Bill immediately & explained the situation to him. Within 15 minutes Bill called me. Within 30 minutes they put a stop payment on the original check, issued a new check & sent via FedEx overnight to me. Now that's some over the top service if you ask me !! I define great service as something that happens when you least expect it.
So ,if you are like me & you don't who to turn to for someone that will protect & serve your best interests, then please do yourself a favor & call Bill Reinig. You will sleep better because you made the right choice. I don't make statements like this unless they are well deserved & this one without question certainly is !!

William reinig, (bill) is truely a nice man! He really cares, actually cares about his clients being made whole again. He does everything he can and beyond to keep open communication with his clients, he fights for every penny for his clients! When my husband and I met him, the first thing I thought was he was not at all like the stereo types and jokes that come with the title attorney. I would recommend him to anyone! I couldn't have had a better experience, given the unfortunate circumstances. Thanks, Bill!

Jonathan helped me in my case and since has helped another two family members. I referred my family to him because of how well he handle my case, he was honest with me didn't give me any false hopes and also made sure HE found the best way to help me. He saw my case and consider everything that applied to me and recommend not only the most advantageous way to do it, but also the most cost effective given my financial situation, while making sure that it wouldn't jeopardize my legal stay in the country. His fees are exceptionally affordable, and he is willing to work with his clients by letting them make payments on his attorney fees. Almost everyone in his office speaks Spanish including him. If there is a need for him to travel to the immigration appointments or to accompany you in those appointments, he doesn’t add it as an extra fee on your bill. Over all he was excellent, he was reassuring, realistic, affordable and very knowledgeable of the CURRENT laws.
Thank you Jonathan.

Mr. Flynn came into my life back in October 2013. He helped my husband&i during 1 of the hardest and WORST TIMES IN OUR LIVES. He treated us like family not like clients. Jay made sure my children never went w/out.my husband got the care he needed; due to Jays persistence. I can honestly say I would never let any other attorney represent my family or myself ever again. Jay Flynn is and will be MY attorney forever.
you need to look no further, if you're looking for a PHENOMENAL,HONEST,DEDICATED legal representation you have found the him. Jay always kept us informed, included us in the entire case. He Definitely made this part of our lives much more pleasurable(and it wasnt something u want to go through ever) and to be honest i never thought we'd get through this ordeal but we did because of the exceptional work from Jay Flynn..... you won't be disappointed!!!..i PROMISE

Jay is a great man and lawyer. He, and his partner Kristi McKennon represented me after I was in an accident at work, causing me to lose my right leg. Over the two years, Jay and I would talk regularly about my case, but also how my family and I were. He was always concerned about our well being and made me feel like we were not only his clients, but his friends.
Jay always made sure that whatever I needed to have done, whether it was traveling for appointments, changes to my prostethic, or anything pertaining to my case/well being was done. It was done correctly and compassionately. Jay always made sure that I was always prepared before testifying, or giving my deposition, and I would recommend him, and Kristi to anyone needing legal help with personal injury

Jay has been my rock and a bright light in my life for many years. Since I've been working with Jay and his law partner Kristi Mckennon, my life has become such an amusing occasion in every way. I really recommend you get to know Jay if you have the time. Totally worth it!
I was the victim of a home invasion where I was brutally beaten, raped, and left for dead. The maintenance man at the complex where I lived was a DNA match, as well as having a mountain of evidence against him, and was charged with the crime. I did not attend the trial except to testify as I was still recovering from this horrific incident and trying to cope with the physical and mental consequences in the aftermath. During the criminal trial, detailed facts were revealed that all duplicate keys to the resident’s dwellings were not secured by the management and that obtaining the duplicate key to my apartment was indeed how that man gained access to my home.
One of my doctors had previously recommended Jay Flynn to me should I ever decide to move forward with a civil case against the complex. I’m summarizing this backstory as a preview of my experience with, and to emphasize the extent of compassion and trust, distinctive motivation to excellence, and life’s value and worth when a job is well done. I was an incredibly fortunate witness to how easily Jay Flynn and his law partner Kristina Mckennon brought these positive aspects back into my life after such a tragic event.
When I heard news from the criminal trial that the duplicate keys to every person’s apartment home in that complex were not secured in any way (256 units), and the owners and management felt duplicate key security was insignificant under the circumstances, I made up my mind to change that. I could not live with the fact that such a horrific event could happen to someone else because of such a serious, yet easily solved problem, such as security of duplicate apartment keys. So I contacted Jay Flynn while the jury was still in deliberation during the criminal trial.
The outcome of the criminal trial was in favor of the prosecution and the convicted criminal now serves 24 ½ years to life in prison. The civil case is now resolved also. And with Kristi Mckennon as the lead, teamed with Jay Flynn and myself, sponsored by Representative Gael Tarleton, ESHB1647 was signed into law in Washington State on April 26, 2013. This law bridges the gap in Washington State law regarding security of duplicate keys in residential rental dwellings.

Alicia Berry has my trust in matters of the law. Her competence and knowledge of the language is only surpassed by her comfort level in the court setting. My experience with Alicia Berry lasted seven months and there was never a missed dead line for discovery or motions. Alicia Berry deals with the present as well as anticipates the future. I was treated with great respect and felt as though I was her only client. The practice of Law is certainly advanced and enhanced with Alicia Berry involved.
It was most evident she has the respect of fellow attorneys in the halls of the courthouse.
Thorough, competent, hard working, most effective and God fearing are just some of the strong attributes I assign of my dealings with Alicia Berry.

I reached out to Mr. White for a second opinion on my immigration case. He encouraged me to reach out to USCIS directly and see if we could expedite the case since it's been over a year. I did and even though I have not heard back directly from USCIS but they started to process my case now! In addition, I was hearing different opinions on my case, and it was reassuring that Mr. White had the same opinion as my primary lawyer on the conservative side. He also gave me a couple of extra pieces of advice which I will definitely utilize in the future.

John Raekes is absolutely one of the best attorneys I could recommend to anyone if you run into problems in Kennewick. He is extremely professional, knowledgable and on top of things when it comes to getting back to you and responding to questions. He has a very honest, down to earth, layed back demeanor (perfect in a stressful situation) and Most of all he is not money hungry, he doesnt up the price for this or that, when he says Thats the price then THATS IT and he sees it through til the very end. He is a perfect example of what a great attorney is. He is easy to get a hold of and keeps you updated on the status of your case throughout the whole process. Thank you John for all your assistance!

I had bad experience with a person of authority and I needed to find some one I could trust fast, I hired attorney and thought I’d be ok then got ahold of Shelly and knew I’d be ok,hired her on the spot cause I could tell in her tone of voice just over the phone how compassionate and understanding she was,not just good attorney but a great person,I fear no bad outcomes with justice in my case and words can’t say how thankful my wife and sun are to have you defend my rights god bless,anyone reading this if Shelly will take your case you won’t find some one more devoted to your case if you had wrong doings just be honest with her and she will do the same!

Pat’s large corporation background and post-graduate business education makes her an astute counselor for complex business transactions. She understands the 'why' as well as the 'how' of getting things done. She is also tireless in her attention to details and engagement follow-up. I would recommend her without reservation for corporate, contract, business and real estate matters.

We were involved in a construction contract dispute involving an unlicensed, underqualified, unresponsive and untrustworthy contractor who, among other things, filed a frivalous lien on our project. Fortunately for us, we retained Ms. Foster to handle this situation. She immediately communicated with the contractor's attorney and within weeks the lien was removed and the matter resolved in our favor. Ms. Foster was knowedgeable, aggressive, responsive and properly focused on our case. We would highly recommend her for her great work and results and would not hesitate to use her again if the need arises.

Catherine Harkins is beyond what I thought of any kind of BAR associate. I am very opinionated about those who serve in the BAR, but Catherine surprised me and showed me that there are people in that system who care, who can and will do what they can within that system to resent the facts, to stand and fight for you, to expose the lies that have been pointed at you! Catherine Harkins is an EXCELLENT attorney, Her partner, Ryan, is too, I appreciate you Catherine and Ryan, thank you so much!!!
