Rafael Urquia recently represented me in a lawsuit pertaining to injuries sustained from an incident with a dog. He gave me his full attention when I recounted the events of that day, and was sensitive and compassionate regarding the serious injuries I endured. Rafael was extremely generous with his time over the course of 21 months, and was successful in a mediation settlement. He is the best lawyer I have ever dealt with, and I would recommend him enthusiastically.

I was in a no-fault accident and the folks at Urquia Law were helpful from day one. Communication was stellar as I was always made aware of what was happening with the case and part of the decision-making with professionalism. I was awarded substantially more than if I tried to negotiate on my own and was able to move on with my life swiftly.

Mr. Freeze gave such a comprehensive explanation. I was on the right track but he confirmed it with the law. Now I can confidently pursue my request for the Open Board Meeting minutes. Also I can consider legal action if all fails because he gave me my "sword."

I hired Nicole Li from the Li Law Firm for a matter under investigation by the Department of Health.
Her responsiveness, communication style, and emotional awareness were impeccable.
Nicole responded to emails almost immediately, relieving any weighing concerns.
Communication via phone and email conveyed assertiveness and authenticity, which showed the traits of a genuine individual.
Nicole alleviated my concerns the whole time we worked together, easing a disruptive and emotionally difficult time in my life.
After what seemed like forever, the matter under investigation was closed with no further action. My license is unaffected-
I recommend Nicole Li!

Nicole is an excellent lawyer. I felt so seen by her. She listened to me, she shared herself with me, and she believed in me. Her support was comforting and so necessary as I moved through the formidable process of being investigated by the DOH. From the outset, she made herself completely available to me and made sure to include me in every aspect of our process together. She advocated for me in a skillful and honest way, and because of her support, we were successful in closing the case within four months (granted my case was not a complicated one). I highly recommend Nicole for any case involving the DOH of Washington State. She is caring and personable, efficient and talented.

As a new business owner, I was looking for someone to help navigate the world of compliance in the therapeutic world. Nicole was both knowledgeable about the legal requirements for my business and mindful in her delivery of information and recommendations.
Nicole became just as invested and enthusiastic about my business as me! She established an efficient communication system where we could easily brainstorm and share ideas about the business and update documents like client intake forms and policies. It has been a great partnership!
As my business grows, Nicole continues to be a wonderful and reliable source - from answering my business questions to helping create new documents and policies. I know that I can count on her for my business needs.

Joe wins cases... He is a shark in the courtroom. He wins because he has three gifts that other attorneys wish they had; CONFIDENCE, Joe is willing to go to trial and fight for his clients. He doesn't back down in trial, or in settlements, because Joe has a long history of winning really tough cases. INTELLIGENCE, Joe is on top of the every change and technicality in the Law, he wins many cases before they even go to trial because he is willing to put in the hard work and do the pre trial motions and hearings that many attorneys are unwilling to do. CHARISMA, Joe is the cool kid in the court room. He draws everyone in when he speaks. The jury wants be on Joe's team.. and that means they are on your team. Joe won my case, he saved me from having to do 10 years in prison for a crime I wasn't guilty of. I couldn't have had a better attorney fighting for me.

He handled a speeding ticket in Jefferson County for my daughter and it was dismissed with her presence required in court. She did not have to miss a day at college and it was money well spent!

Dave is one of the best attorneys I have ever worked with. He's so versatile in his knowledge. He speaks in such layman's terms. Dave really has a passion for advocating and advising his clients. I have been working with him for 4 years. There's no one else I go to when I need help outside of Dave!!! Thank you for everything you've done for us.

I consulted with David Sadick at least 25 times over the last three years for help on a case involving insurance liability. David was just fantastic - from explaining the right concepts at the right time of the case, guiding me through collecting the right documentation and statements from the parties involved, through to negotiations with the adjustor. He really understands and cares. Cannot recommend him enough!

Mr. Charlton took what most would consider to be a losing case where essentially, it was law enforcement and their family members vs a convicted felon. He listened to the us and worked diligently to investigate facts. He never pushed his client to take a deal, he presented options and followed our wishes, even when there was very little hope. With a show of force from the police in the court room against us he took the case to trial in superior court. We could not be happier with the level of tenacity he showed - he objected left and right and made the prosecutor pissed and flustered. He did his homework and it showed. His objections were sustained way more often than over-ruled. This gentleman knows his stuff and he is not afraid to use it! In a jury trial in an uphill battle - he WON! He did a fantastic job and most of all was super respectful. I've worked with other defenders that were complete jerks and spoke to me like i was a six year old and owed them something. I highly recommend Scott Charlton. I can't thank him enough!

When I got a DUI, I was devastated. I had no prior convictions, and had no idea what to do or where to turn. I was scared and had no experience at all with the law. I am so grateful that I turned to Mr. Davies as my lawyer. From the very beginning of the process, he was clear, concise, and understanding. He never sugar-coated anything, and was extremely thorough in every aspect of my DUI case. While he made no promises, he was confident that he could reduce my conviction. He helped me every step of the way, (even personally indemnifying the impound company that was holding my car for any liability so that they could release the car to me...and did this while he was on vacation!), and he was always available for any questions I had. He made me feel safer and less anxious, and in the end, everything he promised was realized. My conviction was reduced, and as a result my penalties were drastically reduced as well. I highly recommend Mr. Davies. He's exceptional--has the experience, knowledge, and contacts within the county to get the job the done, and always with the client's best interests first and foremost.

Even working pro bono. He is the best lawyer I've ever had. I'm a convicted felon, with multiple d.u.I.'s. I was treated with dignity and respect, despite my flaws. It gave me the desire to change my life around. He's as good as it gets. Creme de la creme.

Mr. Hynson sees his clients as real people, not just a way to make money. He works hard to make sure you have the best defense possible, keeps you updated, and lets you know what to expect. He will stand up for your rights and not take any BS from the court or the DA.
He is a honest man that went into law to fight the corruption in our legal system, to make a difference, and to REALLY help people.
He has always been willing to work with clients on payments they can afford.

Joe is a great Attorney in a corrupt system! He will definitely get you the best deal possible when bargaining with the prosecutors. Whatever he charges PAY IT it will be worth it. Although I am happy and grateful that I didn’t have to see Joe in a trial setting, I can only assume that his performance would be impressive at the very least! His persona and demeanor show charisma, real talent, and a demand for respect in a courtroom. I’ve known Joe for almost 10 years and I would not recommend anyone else for representation. His Secretary Rocks too I feel bad that I can’t remember her name at this time.

I'm disabled, limited money, and on the straight & narrow.. trying to live my life free of my previous troubles with WA legal system... When filling out the form for the background check to purchase a legal firearm, I said that I hadn't been in a 'psychiatric' facility as an adult,.. but it turns out I had turned 18 just a few days prior to the psych. Facility!
Julie came to my rescue, was with me and had helped me through this every step of the way...., even now when I got a summons for a review hear after 2 yrs(which she both asked & got the judge and prosecutors approval, stating that if I didn't receive any new charges during the 2yr unsupervised probation, I WOULD NOT have to come back to the Clallam County District Court! I'm disabled, on SSI, I've got severe Social Anxiety & Panic Disorder in public, (Which are all okay, & I'm stable on my meds for the majority of the time, plus my new Service Dog in Training Chattam is a huge help, or he will be but he's in the process of training!)
Julie was & is still doing a great job..., shes very caring and understanding, so when I received a summons, out of the blue -so 2 speak.. yesterday, regarding my case from 2 yrs ago, requesting that I appear for a review hearing,... Even after she had gotten me permission to not have to come back to court if I didn't get in trouble again..., and I contacted Julie immediately, and she is on it .., she said she is going to figure it out for me, and I'm once again so greatly appreciative for her skill, level of care & empathy, and her drive to take care of her clients in the best most beneficial way she can!

I have recently used Mr. Haas in civil litigation work. His ethics and principles are above reproach. He is capable, king, and a real problem solver.

Michael Haas did very little to move my case forward. When I decided to part ways, he provided me with a case folder that seemed thrown together and incomplete. He said he would send me an invoice and the remainder of my retainer of $5,000.00. I received neither. He did not respond to any emails, phone calls, or letters requesting the invoice and retainer remainder after 4 (+) months. While he "represented" me, he rarely responded to any inquires and spent much of the time patting his own back in the four face to face meetings I had with him. He is currently running for Superior Court Judge. I would think again before voting for him! I would definitely not recommend him to a friend.

In a personal injury matter, Mike provided me truly impressive service in all aspects. He was able to rapidly grasp the important issues in my case and brought it to a successful conclusion through settlement without lengthy court proceedings. He has both breadth and depth of experience in law, and this was immediately obvious to me.
I have worked with several attorneys for both personal and professional matters, and he is clearly the best that I have encountered, including those in my own family. He is both competent AND compassionate, and in my view this is an all too infrequent combination in both law and health care. I recommend him without any reservations whatsoever.

My husband and I hired David to draft our estate plan soon after we moved to Washington in the spring of 2020. He answered all of our questions, responded to all emails promptly the entire process was quite easy. This happened during Covid shut down and he made arrangements for us to sign our documents from our car so that it was safe.
His rates are very reasonable, he charges by the hour rather than a flat fee. That was nice because our case was pretty straight forward and simple, I suspect a flat fee would not have worked out in our favor. Its fair to both the client and the attorney when it's billed by the hour.
About a year and half after we drafted our estate plan we decided to make a change to our will. David was super prompt in handling that change for us. We did this right before the holidays and I expected it would be drawn out process. Instead he got it turned around in a couple of days. It was great.

You get what you pay for, and I ended up paying much less than I anticipated or wanted to with this attorney. There's a reason for that. I should've known I was in trouble when his disgruntled secretary quit the first week I hired him. Over the four months we worked together, he did nothing for my case. My ex-wife and her attorney were actively taking my children and money, while this guy was intent on simply "managing his client." He asked me to be patient, and I now realize it was his way of saying you're the last in line. He had $6K in retainer money that just sat there while he claimed he was negotiating terms for settlement--ruining my chances of actually settling. After threatening to fire him because he'd disappeared for several weeks, he quit, claiming he and his family had Covid. Then I went on to represent myself and gain orders that benefited my case, when he'd told me this wouldn't ever happen. Good luck with this guy, Maybe he'll actually work to fight for you and your family. He sat by and watched while mine was being destroyed.

Noah has represented me in Criminal, Dependency, and Family court. I've has quite a few lawyers over the last decade and he is, by far, the one that I felt helped me the most. What I appreciate about him the most was that he was realistic. In the privacy of his office he would level with me, discuss possible outcome, worst case, best case, ect. He would make sure that I fully understand the situation so that there were no surprises. No matter how bad/good the case looked he would never push me into making a decision. He would give it an honest try for anything that I was asking in court. Very happy with his performance and would defiantly recommend him.

I received a questionable speeding ticket on Highway 101 this summer driving back to Kitsap County from Sequim. Noah was recommended to me by a friend. Noah did a wonderful job and got the ticket dismissed. I drive a lot for work and having a clean driving record is very important to me. I would highly recommend Noah for any speeding tickets.

I found Lorraine to be knowledgeable and initially helpful though we never made it past the consultation despite her telling me I could work with her (and even offered a “locals” discount). When I returned for a second meeting, after gathering the information for my divorce as she directed, she was “not accepting new clients”. I emailed and called and the response was unprofessionally long in coming, and I was met with a flat out “no” despite my best efforts to just get a phone consult of 1/2 hour to answer questions. I thought I had legal counsel. Divorce is hard enough.
Now I have to go and invest time and money to start again with someone else. I feel dropped.

I hired Lorraine Rimson to represent me through a very painful divorce. She did not take time to get to know the details. Further , she never pursued delving into my spouse's dangerous behavior.
If you are looking for the attorney to "fight" for you, Lorraine Rimson is NOT your attorney. She was unprepared with my case and very ineffective at defending me against opposing counsel's accusations. I became very fearful of what would happen if my case actually proceeded to trial.
Her style made a divorce process harder, longer and more expensive that it needed to be. Lorraine Rimson is not the attorney you want on your side. Very dishonest and unprofessional. Rorraine Rimson kept telling me "she was working on my case", but nothing has been done, I was charged thousands dollars.
Her confrontational approach to family law has left permanent and unnecessary scars on my family.

I would like to highly recommend Lorraine Rimson. Lorraine represented me in a divorce proceeding. She is extremely professional and also brings a personal aspect into dealing with her clients.
