About a year and a half ago, I was hit by a car, as a pedestrian in a crosswalk. A family member encouraged me to reach out to a personal injury attorney to get repercussions since I was not at fault. The recovery process has been incredibly difficult, but it's been much easier since working with Joe Rome and the team. I appreciate how quick Joe is to respond. I also really appreciate, that he has been informative and empathetic throughout our time working together.

Mr. Trudell and his office staff are top notch, A+. My business law firm referred him when I was in a vehicle accident, and I’m extremely satisfied with how the process was handled. No accident case plays out perfectly, but his office maximized my interest at every turn. Highly recommended, and would work with them again any time! Thanks Pat, Barbara, and Rachel. 🙏

I have used Steve's firm on 3 different personal injury claims for 3 separate auto accidents. Steve and his team are extremely professional and compassionate. In particular Heather Doss and Tracey Smith went above and beyond to negotiate with insurance companies and health insurance providers to achieve the best possible outcome for my cases. Every attention to detail on the costs of their services was documented and explained to the fullest. As I already have, I would hire them again and again.

I had a significant accident and needed help. The insurance company I had to deal with wouldn't budge and wanted to undercut me. Neil was there for me every step of the way, clearly explained to me every thing that would happen and what needed to be done. The legal results ended up being better than expected, and if I or anyone else ended up going through a similar ordeal again, I would recommend Neil be the first person they call.

Joe is very professional, and always kept me updated. Joe was also great at covering all options that's on the table. He is definitely one of the best attorneys out there and someone I would highly recommend without hesitation. Unfortunately I've been involved in a couple of accidents recently, and Joe has done a phenomenal job both times he's represented me. I've been driving for over 30 years and over the years have worked with other attorneys before and I can confidently say that Joe is the best when it comes to experience, communication, feedback, knowledge, outcome and it's pretty clear that he really cares about his clients. Even though it's an unfortunate event to ever be involved in an accident but I feel very fortunate, and lucky that I got Joe on my side. He's definitely my go to guy for life.

Ms Mordehkova was a true criminal defense advocate for a challenging client with delusional thinking, who committed a high public profile crime. She was vigorous in her representation, very supportive and patient with her client, timely in her responses to family inquiries, and just a true professional. I highly recommend her.

Evegeniya went above and beyond for not only me, but my family who was also very involved in my case.
She represented me (twice) and not only helped me to see the bigger picture of my circumstance, but also led me through a very tumultuous situation, providing me with a sound solution to my situation.
Thank you, Evgeniya, for guiding me every step of the way while instilling a new-found confidence in myself to navigate a life obstacle.

Absolutely no regrets other than wishing I called earlier! After getting cut off by a car while on my motorcycle, I was left with plenty of scratches and a totaled bike. Being in the Military I felt like I had to settle my case ASAP. I recieved a ridiculous offer from an unresponsive insurance company which had me on the search for help. Luckily, I was pointed in the direction of Mr. Meyers and his team. After calling them, I felt like my case was on auto pilot never had to stress out again. Even after PCS'ing to Korea, they kept me updated until the very end. Max Meyers Law helped us get more than 23x our original settlement offer! The most professional and experienced team I had the pleasure to work with. Thank you for everything Meyers Law!

I hired CMS Law Firm after an unexpected loss of access to a prior estate planning professional triggered a schedule challenge for a time-sensitive estate plan update. The CMS Law Firm staff worked cooperatively to rapidly achieve all unique aspects of my estate plan requirements. The rate quoted in advance was quite reasonable and sustained for the completed task. All questions were answered with great competence and I was afforded the ultimate degree of control and flexibility throughout the process of the estate plan generation and finalization process. Since this is not a solo practice, it affords a greater probability of prompt availability when needed.

I can't speak more highly of Chris and his staff. I live in Arizona and he initiated and handled probate for me after my sisters sudden passing in Washington. They kept me regularly informed of the progress and went the extra mile navigating some difficult situations. I will use his services again when I institute a trust.

My wife and I needed to do an estate plan, create a will, and set up a trust. Having completed the process, I would highly recommend Chris to help with yours. He is very professional, knowledgeable, and tactful estate planning professional. He was able to guide us through the process and give us all the information we needed to make the right decision. He was very clear about laying out the pros and cons of certain decisions we were contemplating, without making us feel like he was telling us what to decide. In our conversations we found him to be caring, attentive, and tuned in to our family values.

By far the best attorney I have had the pleasure of working with. I had an unemployment matter with a very large corporation. He was very helpful and informative. He answered my question about the case well after normal closing time and is very thorough. He will tell you honestly how it will or could possibly go and he is very professional and seems to be well known by judges. Definitely recommend

All around amazing work. I am dealing with court for unemployment benefits I was told I shouldn't have gotten because my employer claimed that quit. I was nervous to go to court with a huge corporation. I applied for the unemployment Law group and Mr. Norman assigned to my case. He is very knowledgeable and always quick to respond. I never had to worry about what was going on with my case because if I had questions I could email and get very quick responses. I had no idea which way to go or what to do and Mr Norman just swooped right in, took control of the helm and guided me in the right direction. I went to court the first time and got a decision in my favor. They appealed it and he agreed to actually take over my case again even though he didn't have to, and we won! All around amazing attorney and I would highly recommend for a vast variety of types of court cases from criminal charges to unemployment. If you want an attorney that's on top of it, knows what he's talking about, has been doing this for a long time and is very professional? Mr Norman is the way to go! I always knew he was on my side and would answer my questions and stand by my side on that brutal day, even if we lost (which we didn't, woot woot!!). I would definitely pick this attorney again.

He was very communicative and patient in explaining unemployment law. He was always prompt at responding to my emails and questions and ensured that we were aware of updates and changes as soon as they happened. Dan did an excellent job explaining the process and giving me realistic expectations. I felt prepared going into my hearings.

Last year I hired Kirkland attorney Glen St. Louis after my husband and his attorney got me to sign divorce papers saying that I would receive a 35k judgment on "distribution of property" in a divorce if I have up a claim for spousal maintenance. My husband had agreed to take all the credit card debt which accumulated over 17 years of marriage. after I signed the documents, I decided it was still best that I see an attorney to review what I thought was a good deal. I was shocked when Mr. St. Louis explained that it appeared my husband had tricked me into a "35K Judgment" because it was clear from all the paperwork and debt that he took, that my husband was going to declare bankruptcy when the divorce was final to get out of the credit card debt and to get out of paying the 35K judgment. Mr. St Louis also explained to me that it was practically impossible to pull my ex-husband into court for contempt of property distribution award because he explained the family law did not allow that. In other words I was about ready to lose everything I thought I was getting in the divorce, and there was absolutely nothing I could do about it. My ex-husband later admitted to me that this was indeed his intentions. I had to spend over 5K to Mr. St. Louis to get out of the agreement, and with hard work and ingenuity, Mr. St. Louis got everything tossed out of court and forced a settlement on my husband and his attorney in my favor to re-structure my 35K bankrupt able property award into spousal maintenance, plus attorney fees. I could not have been happier. My regret was that I did not consult with an attorney before I got myself into the problem, but I was very very happy and satisfied that Mr. St. Louis got the agreement thrown out and a whole new settlement that my ex-husband could not discharge himself out of in bankruptcy. He now has to pay me court ordered spousal maintenance until the total sum of 35K is paid in full. Mr. St. Louis is very good in court and knows how to weave the facts and tell the story of a client's case into the process of the law to the court and best represent the client very well in court. I now receive monthly installment of spousal maintenance I never would have received without Mr. St Louis help. I got the additional small bonus justice was done and my ex-husband is very angry with what Mr. St. Louis accomplished for me. I would hire Mr. St. Louis in an instant if I ever needed legal services. I highly recommend his skills and talent to anyone with family law problems.

My divorce in King County Superior Court is finally done and I am thankful to my attorney, Glen St.Louis as he managed to get me a parenting plan that protected my daughter and got me a lot more in property settlement proceeds than I ever could have imagined. Mr. St.Louis is a very cerebral long term planner, yet he was very tenacious when he had to be, and knows how to think outside of the box. I’m a mom with a daughter that is nearly a teen-ager and had no experience with the family law courts or the way the system works. Mr. St.Louis explained it every step of the way. I had all sorts of nasty and false accusations toward me, and Mr. St.Louis knew how to disarm the untruths and lies. He was very thorough and thoughtful and knows how to deal with challenges. He understands human behavior which is a big plus in dealing with family law issues. He could almost predict every one of my husbands or his lawyer’s dirty tricks and was always prepared for them. My former husband was a pain in the caboose nearly the entire case and threw three different attorneys at me, and each time they threw a curve ball at Mr. St.Louis he treated it as a form of exercise and never got thrown off his game. It didn’t matter what pitch they threw, he knew how to hit it right back at them with more zing and spin. Mr. St.Louis ”responds” rather than “reacts” to things and does not let his buttons get pushed. He’s calm and has a sense of humor which helps. It was apparent at each step in my case (including at hearings and mediation) that he was at least two steps ahead of my husband’s attorneys in knowing what had to be done to place the advantages in my favor. He did not charge me for every meeting and phone call like other attorneys do and for that I am thankful. Mr. St.Louis is talented and disciplined lawyer. If I needed an attorney ever again, he will be the one I want on my team. I enthusiastically recommend him. You will be served well. One Happy Mother

I make this well earned referral for my former attorney, Glen St.Louis and his law firm in my divorce. They obtained for me 50% time with my son and daughter. The fact that I do not have to pay child support is also a plus because I do financially provide for my kids, but the BIG thing for me is that I get to be a highly involved father with my children; something I was unsure of two years ago. Glen worked very hard, tirelessly and intelligently in representing me and turning around a situation for me. He gave me great advice and was always probing to come up with the best result he could get for me. He charged a reasonable rate and worked with me to be sure I’d weather the litigation storm. He knoew how to lean into the negative things and turn them positive. Glen is a planner and he and his staff were very helpful in guiding me with tips on how not to shoot myself in the foot which is easy to do in emotional situation like family law. He gave me tips on how to get along with my estranged spouse and to try to turn things positive in raising our children together. He’d politely challenge me on my thinking, and I learned a lot about myself in how I dealt with things. When I adjusted my attitude, my spouse seemed to notice and her attitude toward everything changed and it helped big time in getting a great parenting plan for our kids. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of understanding the human behavior aspect of divorce and feeling like you are losing your family, and all the fear it causes. Glen did much to give me a different perspective, and yet still stood up for me against my ex wife and her law firm with politeness, professionalism and determination. His law firm is interested in what is best for children and he does not play bulls*hit in that regard. He may be a little demanding of his clients, but it is because the law firm actually cares about children and doing the right thing to be sure that the client turns out to be the best parent they can be. I’ve never had a law firm before that goes the extra lengths. I could not be any more happy than I am right now to be a big part of my children’s lives. I highly recommend the services of attorney Glen St.Louis, and his law firm for any family law related legal matters a person may be experiencing. If I ever need help again, Glen St.Louis will be the attorney I turn to. Signed; A Very Happy Father 2022

I first talked to Bruce right before NJP and he gave me free counsel. I hired him afterwards and never thought twice. I was facing two charges 112a and 92. He won my case with the best possible outcome; the Admin Board results were 3-0 no misconduct and 3-0 retention, a unanimous win. His extensive experience and tremendous talent was the reason my board went so well. No matter what the details of your case are, he will ensure you get the best possible outcome. I have 12 years in the Navy and now I will be able to continue my career. I am eternally grateful for that.

I was facing TWO allegations in my Command which are 112a and 93. With 16 years in the Navy, I knew the Navy has ZERO tolerance when it comes to illegal drugs and I take it very seriously. I got so worried that my 16 long years I spent my life in the Navy would just flush thru a drain like waste. As soon as I found out about it, I didnt hesitate to call Mr White and he gave me some advises before I even hire him and met in person. The moment I met Mr White, I felt very comfortable and ease. He is so flexible that I can meet or call him almost anytime of the day to answer any questions and worries I had. I will never forget that time he told me that he will go to war for me to win this battle. The day of my Adsep board he truly proven me what he said by shutting down our opponents who tried to take me down. I highly recommend Mr Bruce White to anyone who is facing the toughest time in life.

Mr. Fox agreed to represent me in a custody case at a point that I was already served, confused, and helpless. My wife had an attorney but I did not. Therefore, she was way ahead of the game and my lack of knowledge prior to Mr. Fox had done serious damage to my own case. When Mr. Fox took over, everything changed within days. Mr. Fox‘s professionalism and integrity was above any other attorney I had ever come to contact with. He is an amazing person and an exceptional human being.

Chris came highly recommend and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the outcome. I came to Chris with a divorce case involving tricky financial issues and student loan debt. Chris found the case law to reinforce my position, and consulted outside sources to make sure all the bases were covered.
The process lasted a year and through it all Chris was honest and straightforward about the challenges of our case. He’s a great lawyer because he never promised an outcome or inflated expectations. He understands the legal and emotional issues that arise. He kept my expectations realistic at every move and he was right every time.
My case was resolved in a settlement hearing luckily and not a trial. I credit Chris’ steadfast preparation of arguments and case law that showed the other side a settlement would be best.
Chris was constantly evaluating and adjusting our strategy during the case which was great because the demands of the other side morphed. Chris was prompt at communicating, whether it was a phone call, text, or e-mail. He was a staunch, ethical advocate and I recommend him highly.

Mr. Kirk handled my case with knowledge and care. He is well informed, he kept me informed, but at every point in my case I felt like I could just "let go" - feeling comfortable that I hired a professional who is respected as an "elite" in his field. I did understand, before hiring Mr. Kirk, that he is very busy, and sometimes our conversations were brief because of this- however, I appreciated that. The good ones are always busy.

I was arrested for DUI in Kirkland, and it was my 2nd DUI arrest in less than 7 years. The seriousness of a second offense is greatly increased over a 1st offense, the mandatory penalties, the monetary fines, mandatory jail time (Minimum 30 days). I am a professional, a father of 3 young children, small business owner with employees who also depend on me. Very unnerving to consider how spending 30 days in jail would affect me and those that depend on me, not to mention the very significant monetary costs, driving restrictions, home monitoring, etc.
I did a lot of research, and interviewed 3 attorneys to represent me in this DUI case. All 3 were very highly rated, with very positive reviews. I was impressed by all of them. I chose Bill Kirk to represent me based on his analysis of the circumstances of my case, the aggressive strategies he proposed to attack the case against me, his great familiarity with the Kirkland Municipal Court system and it's prosecutors and judges, and just the overall impression I got from meeting with him. He was clearly very intelligent, knowledgeable, experienced, and competent, as well as being warm and empathetic. He was very easy to talk to, took the time to explain all my options, outlined all the steps that I needed to take. He was not the least expensive of the 3 attorneys I interviewed, but he inspired the most confidence, and ultimately I decided that Bill Kirk was the attorney that I most wanted on MY side in the courtroom.
Bill did a wonderful job representing me in the courtroom. He analyzed every detail of evidence, he was exceptionally well prepared for each pretrial hearing, he presented logical and organized arguments against all vulnerabilities in the prosecutors case against me. He was clearly well liked and well respected by all present in the courtroom.
Ultimately Bill Kirk was able to get my case dismissed before going to trial. What a GREAT relief that has been for me!
Bill and his staff always acted with great professionalism, and also with great sensitivity to how embarrassing and scary this situation is for his clients. I think it would be VERY hard to find any attorney anywhere who would be able to provide a better or more capable defense against a DUI charge. I give my very highest recommendation to William Kirk. Also my sincere gratitude.

Carlos worked hard to get my long drawn out case dismissed. He not only was my lawyer but reached out to make sure I was okay during difficult times regarding the case. He has compassion, insight and listens to his clients while suggesting the best options necessary. My first time needing a lawyer and I was completely naive to the process. Carlos put me at ease and ultimately my case was dismissed! Highly recommended.

Carlos saved my husbands life, and our family. Two years ago my husband was arrested, and facing very serious charges. If convicted he was facing 40 years in prison. I knew picking the right attorney would be the most important decision I ever made. Before finding him, we where totally clueless on what to do, and how to handle this extremely stressful situation. The day Carlos told me he would take this case all my anxiety lifted. Although he is extremely intelligent he spoke to me in away he knew I would understand. He believed in us and our story from the start, and did everything he could to calm my nerves and to ensure me he will do the very best, and work as hard as he can to save my husband. After the first meeting he had with my husband, he had him moved out of lockdown he was in for 23 hours a day to regular population, and in a much more comfortable location in the Jail. The months and days leading up to trial he was always there to answer any question I had, any time of day or night. I saw a total change in my husbands confident level. Any problem that popped up, he made me feel like it was our problem, together, not just mine. He did an amazing job at trial, it was a very stressful two week trial, and Carlos and his wife are an amazing team. His wife even helped me ensure one of our star witnesses made it to court on time to testify after he ended up in the hospital. The trial ended with a hung Jury, witch is amazing considering everything we had against us. Carlos was ready to do it all over again. Only he negotiated an amazing deal with the prosecutor, a deal that was to good to pass up. My husband will be out in less than 2 years, and he was facing 40 years. We couldn’t be happier, and Carlos and his wife have become more than just our lawyer, they have become our dear friends. He really went above and beyond anything I ever expected. My 2 year old son will have his daddy back before he could even remember him being gone. I highly recommend Carlos Gonzalez

I've dealt with other attorneys with my previous auto accident cases and my experience with attorney Ed Harper has been absolutely great. Previously, dealt with attorneys who's best interests were to claim what they can and get their cut and not much of sincere concern when it comes to client. Also when the case is not big enough, they would simply close the case rapidly without much concerns of client's well-being. Attorney Harper was not one of them. Him and his team guided me with care and advised based on client's interest. I am glad that I've resolved my case with attorney Harper and his team.

As a law clerk for Harper Law, I got to know Ed and his staff quite well. Dealing with victims of traumatic personal injury accidents is by no means an easy task but Ed and his staff take on not only the role of legal advisor, but that of counselor and confidant as well. I would recommend Harper Law to anyone I know in need of a personal injury attorney.

Jeremy Bartels was wonderful to work with. I was in a car accident a couple of years ago and needed an attorney to handle the settlement after years of physical therapy for my injuries. Once Jeremy took over my case, things progressed successfully with his diligence and attention to me as a client and to the case itself. Even when things were not progressing due to waiting on responses from medical providers or the at fault driver’s insurance company, Jeremy kept me informed on what was happening. His communication at every step was amazing and one of the reasons I felt I could trust his work on my case. The case was settled, and the outcome was, monetarily, more than I had hoped for. I hope I never need an attorney for a car accident again, but if I do, Jeremy will be the one representing me.

It has been several years since I had contact with Jonathan, however, his integrity, professionalism and kindness is that I will never forget. My teen daughter used CPS with her father with complete lies when not getting her way. I requested supervised visits to protect myself during the investigation. Jonathan was amazing, respectful and could see her demeanor and relationship with me. I appreciate his professionalism and integrity through this difficult time.

I hired Mr. Milestine for a CPS case. He handled my case with professionalism and sensitivity. He helped me make logical decisions when I was an emotional wreck. He is the type of attorney that is on your side, not only understanding the law but human nature as well. I would highly recommend Jonathan.

I am a licensed mental health counselor, a therapist in private practice for over 30 years, and recently retained Jonathan on the advice of another attorney that I regard quite highly but was unavailable. His high praise for Jonathan proved true, as he was both very professional and personable in his representation of my case, which was basically a delusional ex-client claiming that I and members of my family were stalking her. She was able to use the state to get a domestic violence restraining order against me and my son, who did not know her, and the assistance of a "victim's" advocate at taxpayer expense as the state has written these laws to "protect" the "victim" even if everything they say is utterly fallacious. Jonathan put together an excellent defense (you have to basically prove you are innocent as the state is quite willing to assume otherwise) demonstrating that dates and times she said she was being "stalked" were times when I was out of state, along with other impossible scenarios she contrived. This has made a deep impression up me that there are a lot of very deeply disturbed individuals out there who are even worse off than you might detect or imagine in a counseling session. And should you come across one who wants to mess with your life for their own insanely self-indulgent motives, it is good to know an effective, kind, skillful and reasonably-priced lawyer to protect and vindicate you. Jonathan is one such attorney and I will be referring all of my clients who need legal consultation to him from now on, knowing they will be well served. He also gives a one hour free consultation to fully understand your situation and assess what can be done to help you.

Dealing with Mr. Forgette was my first experience needing a lawyer. While extremely apprehensive in the beginning, Simon was able to quickly lay all of my fears and concerns to rest. In the little over 10 months that Simon represented me, I found him to be both courteous and attentive to my personal wants and expectations, but also to be someone who wouldn't hesitate to tell me when those wants and expectations were getting out of line with the reality of the situation. I came to trust and depend on his advice completely and in the end, he was able to achieve everything I had asked him to do. A very intelligent and competent attorney and someone that I would gladly work with again should the need ever arise.

Simon and his staff saw hope in my situation when several lawyers said no. Simon took the time to listen, investigate and piece together an outcome everyone else said would be impossible. I can't thank him enough for his help and I will forever be appreciative for his professionalism and his friendship.

Simon represented my husband in a motor vehicle accident case. His case was complicated and took several years to come to trial. Simon and his staff gave us the best legal representation possible. We are forever grateful for his time, compassion, honesty and integrity. There is no finer trial lawyer that represents the true meaning of the word Client, than Simon Forgette. We are honored to call him a true champion of our representation.

John Rosecrans and his colleague provided outstanding service defending me from aggressive frivolous family law hostility. He is a great communicator, matching clarity with dependable service. Such an attorney brings honor to his profession, and certainly can provide much needed understanding (and even assurance) facing difficult challenges. He has my best recommendation an appreciation!

John Rosecrans represented me in a divorce proceeding (2014-2015). John definitely achieved excellence in each of the above ratings. Also, he is a man of principle. His reports for mediation were free of hearsay and malignment towards both parties in the divorce. I learned from this experience that, while divorce is never easy or pretty, the attorneys have the capacity to either moderate or exacerbate dissension between the parties. John Rosecrans demonstrated his commitment to a cooperative and respectful divorce experience.

James not only helped me navigate a very difficult and stressful situation he also took the time to explain the process to me.
This was my first and hopefully last personal injury claim. I had no idea what I was up against. Jim came through for me like a champion. He was there when I needed him, had questions or just needed to have things explain to me. A real nice man and a very good lawyer. Thank you so much.

I had the opportunity to hire Mr. Beard on two separate occasions. One was a career ending injury from commercial crab fishing in Alaska. Back at the end of 2003. He worked tirelessly on this lawsuit until the end. Which took almost two full years to settle. He kept in contact and informed on every issue of this case. With vary favorable results for me. Then in 2012 I was given the chance to try a return to the commercial fisheries. All was going good for the first few seasons. Then on Halloween night. A crew member lost control of a crab pot. Striking me in the head. Leaving me with a severe head injury. After receiving zero help for my injuries from the vessels owners. I had no choice but to again seek out Mr. Beard for his help. Without hesitation, he was helping me. Instantly things changed. My doctors started actually helping me. Bills started to get paid. And the owners of the boat finally admitted that I was hurt on the boat. Since they wouldn't acknowledge this before Mr. Beard stepped into help. When he did, things happened fast. My head injury left me with a TBI which was severe. Which led to many medications and bad side effects. In the end. Because of all of this. I tried to take my life. Mr. Beard stood by my side. Still doing everything possible for me and my family, to get through this horrific ordeal. Which thankfully I did. He never gave up on me. When many others had. This may have been possibly one of the most difficult cases he may have ever faced. In my opinion, I'm sure it was. Since the TBI, suicide attempt, coma and very long hospital stay. And the many issues involved in any lawsuit. After about three years of his relentless work he put in for me. He secured me a favorable settlement, that will let me live my life, as I had before these horrific injuries. He will work non-stop. Without exception for you. He will tell you straight, the pros, cons and risks of the lawsuit. Mr Beard, in my opinion. Is one of the most knowledgeable, best versed attorney in the maritime field. In the end, he is one of the best. I wouldn't want anyone else representing me, when my whole future is at stake.

We first hired Mike Zeno 25 years ago. As a small business owner we needed assistance with developing our company. Over the years our company grew and so did our working relationship with Mike. Over the past 25 years Mike has been our silent business partner. His guidance has helped us with real estate contracts as we purchased our new facility. He has successfully helped us negotiate large vendor contracts. He has helped us manage the ever changing challenges of being an employer in Washington State. Most importantly, Mike has stood beside CNC and helped us successfully fight a David vs. Goliath lawsuit. Our David company found justice and resolution thanks to Mike's tenacity, wisdom and concern. We are grateful for our 25 year partnership with Mike Zeno.

Dan came highly recommended by my physical therapist back in 2011 when my wife and I were involved in a hit and run collision. Dan communicated with us in a thoughtful and caring manner, and demonstrated that he is a very professional, personable, and honest individual. Dan was thorough, clearly walked us through every phase of the process, and we left with a settlement that was fair for all parties involved. I highly recommend Dan Kilpatric if you require the services of a highly competent attorney.

After working with Dan Kilpatric on a recent personal injury case, I felt I needed to share my experience on here for others to consider if they are looking for a highly professional, ethical, and extremely trustworthy attorney to represent them in any sort of personal injury case. Dan was always very communicative and informative throughout the entire process, and I always felt that my representation by him and his office was in great hands. I had previously utilized Dan's services in a situation years earlier, and I never hestiated or bothered shopping around for another attorney this time around in my recent situation. I just called Dan back as I knew he would do everything he could for me as was the case before! He did! Great attorney, and a great guy all around who is highly reccommended!

Dan handled a personal injury case involving my father. I can't recommend Dan more highly, he was very professional and so patient with my 86 year old father, which led to a favorable settlement. As the former Senate Majority Leader in Washington, I was familiar with lots of first-rate attorneys. After checking around with trial attorney lobbyists, his name kept coming up. I'm so glad we hired Dan to represent my father. He did an outstanding job under very difficult conditions. I would certainly recommend him, and use him again in the future (hopefully I won't need his services). If you're in need of a personal injury attorney, do yourself a favor and hire Dan Kilpatric!

Tim recently assisted my partner and I with filing an S-Corp for our consulting business. We are not very knowledgable about business law, but Tim worked with us every step of the way to make the process go smoothly. He helped us to gain a better understanding of our legal priorities as a business in Washington and made sure to help us complete all of our filing quickly. Thanks so much, Tim!

Tim is a fantastic lawyer! He truly cares about his clients and knows the law. My business partner and I hired Tim to help us get our new business going...he explained every step of the process in detail and reviewed all the paperwork with us in person so we could ask questions along the way. He was patient, flexible, reliable, and constantly looking out for our best interests. Highly recommended!

I recently worked with both Brandy Andersson and her paralegal Tena Kibbey to renew a court order. I found they were both very responsive and on top of the details of my case. I think their rates are fair comparable to other firms in the Seattle area, and loved that I was able to work with a paralegal to keep costs down as much as possible. Brandy is a thorough and highly experienced attorney who will fight for you. I've been working with her for years on a complex case and wouldn't trust anyone else to get the job done.

By far the best attorney I have had the pleasure of working with. I had an unemployment matter with a very large corporation. He was very helpful and informative. He answered my question about the case well after normal closing time and is very thorough. He will tell you honestly how it will or could possibly go and he is very professional and seems to be well known by judges. Definitely recommend

As the owner of collection agency, I have worked with many attorneys nationwide over the last 20 years. Attorney Perkins rates among the best. We approached him with a tough collection challenge which Dennis was able to bring to a positive conclusion through his determination and his ability to cut through the BS and get down to business. He was easy to communicate with and always available for conference. I will be using Dennis to represent my firm in all of our future business in Washington.

I was referred to Taylor by a close friend who had done their estate plan with her. She worked with me on redrafting my estate to help save me hundreds of thousands in estate taxes.
She even drafted a pet trust for my dogs, which I had never thought about doing but feel so good in doing so.
Highly recommend.
