Wanted me to pay $2,000 upfront for a broker scam, so I added him to an email with the broker to analyse if what they were saying was truly a scam or if it wasn’t. He made sure to include in the email that he wasn’t my lawyer (because I hadn’t paid him 2k yet). Why would anyone in the right mind blindly give a lawyer $2,000 without know if they truly have a case or not.

Before I contacted the law offices of Tim Billick I felt powerless and very upset after discovering that someone had taken the intellectual property that I worked so hard to create and was selling it online without my permission. To my surprise and disbelief, Mr. Billick had the infringing material removed from the Internet much quicker than I ever imagined was possible. Now I am feeling so relieved! If you're looking for a skilled attorney who will fight tooth and nail to protect your intellectual property rights, Mr. Billick isn't just an attorney you're are looking. Mr. Billick is THE ATTORNEY you're looking for.

I consulted TBillick Law on a complex copyright licensing issue that intersects with trust & estate law. Several IP attorneys passed on advising me due to the complexity, but Tim had relevant experience in both areas and took the time to figure out the best approach. He even did some background research and made calls before I officially signed up as a client and did not charge me for that! He answered all my questions and carefully explained a complex legal situation. I was fortunate to have found Tim to clarify an otherwise convoluted process.

I was going through a tough time in my life when everything looked like a lost cause. Then, my family found Defense Attorney: Chris Black. At our first meeting, Mr. Black gave me hope. With him on our side, we felt assured that our case would be handled swiftly and smoothly.
He kept us updated and was always available to answer our calls and emails promptly. Mr. Black went above and beyond—efficient, courteous, and professional. I highly recommend Chris Black’s legal services to anyone in need.
As a unique case, I have truly never met a lawyer like Mr. Black. He keeps it real and is a genuine advocate for his clients.
Thank you, Chris, for your solid support and for being such a positive force during that difficult time.

These folks are just great! I urgently needed to understand my rights. A lawyer friend recommended Macdonald Hoague & Bayless, and I will always call them first. Jesse Wing, Adarsh N. Parthasarathy, and their team were warm, empathetic, generous, friendly, efficient, and extremely competent. I honestly couldn't have asked for better legal advice and support! Working with them solved my issues and empowered me with strategies to advocate for myself! I couldn't imagine going anywhere else for legal representation.

I made the best decision when I chose Catherine Fleming of Fleming Law to represent me in my lawsuit against the city of Seattle. I had a bicycle crash on a poorly marked Seattle street which left me semi-paralyzed and permanently in a wheelchair. Catherine is a personal injury attorney but has a special interest in representing injured cyclists, pedestrians or vehicle drivers who sue municipalities for negligent road design. My case was a complicated one due to a preexisting condition, but Catherine had built a strong case, and the city did not want to risk going to trial. They proposed settling out of court, and during her skillful mediation, I was granted a 7-figure settlement, an amount which far exceeded my expectations and for which I am forever grateful to Catherine. This can only be attributed to her in-depth preparation, knowledge of the law, and prior experience with cases against the city of Seattle.
I found Catherine because of another attorney’s high praise. He is a prominent Seattle attorney, and even though he specializes in bicycle accidents, he said he doesn’t like taking cases like mine, against the city of Seattle, as they were high risk and hard to win. He said there’s only one attorney that he knew of who has won these types of cases, and that’s Catherine Fleming.
It was this referral by another highly reputable attorney and my initial conversation with Catherine that led me to retaining her for my case. She absolutely proved to be the right choice. Catherine is a hardworking perfectionist who skillfully builds a case with tenacity, thoroughness, and an unwavering commitment to fight for her clients.
If you have been injured, either cycling, walking, or driving, and think it may be the result of poor signage or road design (or any other reason), consult with Catherine Fleming at Fleming Law. She is one of a few who has the expertise to take on these cases and has earned respect for her many wins. She has earned mine, and I am most grateful that this large settlement amount brings us a newfound financial freedom and peace of mind for whatever our future holds.

We are so glad we found Catherine Fleming and Fleming Law!
After my wife’s bicycle crash in Seattle and subsequent spinal surgery, we faced an uncertain future. Before, she had been a strong cyclist and active hiker, but now was confined to a wheelchair with incomplete paraplegia.
Not only did we experience the loss of the many activities we had once shared, we now faced looming medical expenses, and the possibility of needing long-term care in the future.
We believed that the area where my wife crashed was confusing and dangerous for bicyclists, but were unsure if we had any hope of recovering anything for damages. Catherine agreed to take us on as clients and worked tirelessly to build our case against the city. She amassed evidence that the street design at the site of the accident was unsafe, and furthermore that the city had been aware of this fact.
As the case progressed, it became clear that we had chosen the right attorney for the job. She demonstrated a thorough understanding of the issues and the law surrounding bicycles and traffic safety. It was also evident that she also commanded the respect of her counterparts in the City Attorney’s Office.
After Catherine guided us through a successful mediation, we were delighted with the settlement. While no amount of money can replace my wife’s mobility, we now face the future with less anxiety.

“Jeff is truly one of the best attorneys out there! I was dealing with a stressful situation where a travel agent failed to issue my tickets after I had already paid. Time was running out, and I thought the whole trip would fall apart. Jeff stepped in with incredible professionalism and skill. He quickly assessed the situation, communicated effectively with the travel agent, and took all the necessary steps to ensure I got my tickets on time. His attention to detail, persistence, and calm demeanor throughout the process were outstanding. Thanks to Jeff, the issue was fully resolved, and my trip went ahead as planned. I couldn’t be more grateful for his help. If you need someone who truly fights for you, Jeff is the attorney to call!”

Jeff and his team were nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we reached out, they provided clear guidance, exceptional professionalism, and unwavering support. Jeff’s expertise and thoughtful approach reassured us throughout the process, and his leadership truly stood out. A special shoutout to Jananson, whose meticulous hard work and perfectly crafted demand letter played a crucial role in overturning our insurance denial.
Their dedication and attention to detail made all the difference, and we couldn’t be more grateful for their efforts. If you’re looking for a team that delivers results with compassion and excellence, look no further than Jeff’s team. Highly recommended!

They put you through an inital intake process which is positive. I wanted a quick end to my divorce and was happy to compromise to make it happen. Our goals seemed to align.
Unfortunately this firm provided poor council during the first phone call with the attorney. Luckily this did not lead to a financial move that would have put me in violation of a court order. Later the attorney wanted me to provide documentary evidence he had previously advised against in an aparent 180. Such documentation was previously claimed to put me in legal liability. What can I believe?
Very disappointing.
Divorce is tough enough. I hired an attorney becuase I am no legal expert and I wanted a quick, mediated end to my marriage. Instead I get bad and changing advice. Plenty of good reviews of these guys. Hope I'm an outlier.

Truce Law is the law firm you want to hire when you want a stress free and wonderful experience. All of the attorneys seem to truly care about their clients and the whole legal team is professional, communicative, and knowledgeable. Melodi and Dianna are the best duo you could ask for. They helped me tremendously and they are not only wonderful at their jobs, but also wonderful humans in general with big hearts. If you need legal help, this is the place to get it!

I cannot recommend Truce Law highly enough! From the moment I reached out, their team demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for my case. Dianna, Melodi and Giselle were incredibly knowledgeable, approachable, and kept me informed every step of the way. Their attention to detail and dedication to achieving the best possible outcome was truly impressive.
What stood out most was their ability to explain things to me in a way that was easy to understand, which gave me confidence and peace of mind throughout the process. They were friendly, responsive, and always made me feel like a priority.
Thanks to Dianna and her amazing team I was able to resolve things efficiently and with a positive outcome. I would highly recommend Truce Law to anyone in need of skilled and trustworthy legal representation.

I cannot thank Beckwith Law Group enough for the way they handled my legal matters. I specifically want to thank Attorney Jay Krohn, who personally handled my case and court appearances. Jay and the rest of the Beckwith staff treated me with the utmost compassion during one of the most trying situations of my life. They worked diligently to get me the most positive outcome I could have hoped for and were always available to answer questions and encourage me throughout the legal process. I am certain that I would not have had nearly as good of an outcome if I had chosen a different firm or if I had resorted to a public defender. Beckwith also offered me a very fair flat rate for their services and let me make payments, which made hiring them possible for me as there were no surprise costs. I would HIGHLY recommend this law group for anyone who needs the type of legal services they offer. Thank you again to Jay and his awesome paralegals! I am so glad I decided to hire you. I’ll never tell another lawyer joke again!

This company was retained to assist someone trying to steal my land. They clearly have a losing case. This firm has delayed every email and settlement offer presented to them. They takes weeks or months to respond to calls and emails if at all. It is clear they are doing this to delay the process to rack fees for their clients. Read all the horrible reviews about this firm online and how they treat their own clients and opposing counsel offering them more than generous settlements. We have 7 attorneys and have never experienced this kind of unprofessionalism. Even our property insirance company and the firm retained said this is the most unprofessional communication ever. All they have to do is agree to a settlement but they delay the process to rack of trial fees and do not communicate with clients or opposing counsel. Read all the horrible reviews before hiring these people.

I retained their services for help with business contracts, and business partner discussions. They were extremely prompt, thorough, and helped me succeed with positive outcomes. I first worked with Imants, then mostly with Phil Neale. Phil was very easy to get a hold of, and constantly updated me on progress. Every time I called in, he either answered the call right away, or called back very shortly afterwards. Highly recommend, and we will retain their services when needed again in the future!

I was immensely grateful to have Shannon Polley represent a loved one who was at risk of 2+ years, minimum, of prison for unlawful possession of a firearm. She advocated for his truth with unwavering dedication, a wealth of knowledge, and genuine warmth. Her composure and sharp intellect instilled a deep sense of confidence and trust from beginning to end. Shannon possesses the unique ability to connect with clients on a personal level, making you feel supported, respected and truly heard throughout the entire process. Her ability to adapt and act with precision amidst trial gave us the peace of mind we needed during an extremely stressful experience. I recommend her with high regards if you are looking for a defense lawyer who will go above and beyond, she is a relentless advocate for her clients and was an absolutely powerful force in the court room.

I couldn’t have asked for better representation.

What a Civil Rights Lawyer Can Do for You
A civil rights lawyer focuses on protecting individuals whose constitutional rights have been violated by government authorities, employers, or private organizations. These lawyers specialize in cases involving discrimination, police misconduct, freedom of speech, and other fundamental rights guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution and civil rights laws, such as the Civil Rights Act, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and the Fair Housing Act.
Whether you've been discriminated against due to race, gender, religion, disability, or other protected characteristics, or you believe your civil rights have been violated by a government entity, a civil rights lawyer can help you seek justice, hold wrongdoers accountable, and secure compensation for any harm you've suffered.
When Should I Hire a Civil Rights Lawyer?
You should hire a civil rights lawyer when your constitutional rights or other protected rights have been violated, and you need legal assistance to seek justice. Some key situations in which you may need a civil rights lawyer include:
- Employment discrimination: If you have faced discrimination at work based on race, gender, age, religion, national origin, or disability, a civil rights lawyer can help you file claims under laws such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act or the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

It’s important to clarify the fee structure during your initial consultation to avoid unexpected costs.

Top Questions to Ask a Civil Rights Lawyer
Before hiring a civil rights lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with civil rights cases?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it’s employment discrimination, police misconduct, or First Amendment violations. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer works on a contingency fee basis, hourly rate, or flat fee, and ask for an estimate of the total cost of your case. -
What is the likelihood of success for my case?
Ask the lawyer to provide an honest assessment of your case, including the strengths, weaknesses, and potential outcomes. -
Have you handled cases like mine before?
Inquire about the lawyer’s experience in cases with similar facts and legal issues. -
What is the timeline for resolving my case?
While exact timelines can vary, ask for an estimate of how long your case may take, from filing to resolution. -
Will you handle my case personally?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may work on parts of your case, so it’s important to know who will handle your legal matter directly.
How to Check the Credibility of a Civil Rights Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable civil rights lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their state bar license: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no disciplinary actions against them.
- Look for specific civil rights experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in civil rights law and have a history of handling cases like yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who can speak to their experience with civil rights cases.
- Check for advocacy or nonprofit work: Lawyers involved with civil rights organizations, such as the ACLU or NAACP Legal Defense Fund, may have a strong reputation in the civil rights legal community.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a civil rights lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- A detailed account of the violation: Provide a written summary of the events, including dates, times, and any people involved in the violation of your rights.
- Documentation and evidence: Bring any supporting documentation, such as emails, letters, photos, or video footage that may help prove the violation of your rights.
- Records of complaints or reports: If you’ve filed complaints with a government agency or reported the violation, bring copies of those documents.
- List of questions: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes of your case.
- Information on damages or harm: Be prepared to discuss the harm you’ve suffered due to the violation, such as emotional distress, financial loss, or physical injury.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and get the best possible legal advice on how to proceed.
