I had received a speeding citation from a cop in Pierce county. I went online to try and find an attorney to represent me. I stumbled upon Michael Sheehans reviews and saw he had helped a lot of people. I decided to have him represent me and he did not disappoint. He got my speeding citation dismissed in court and I had to pay nothing to the courts at all! He was a lifesaver for my future career and I appreciate it! It may take alittle time because of the backups in the courts system, but give Michael time and he will not disappoint you. Thank you again Michael for getting rid of the citation.

Gordon and his team have been excellent advocates throughout my relocation case. He has a thorough understanding of the complexities of family law and helped me successfully navigate through the often confusing hoops one must jump through when it comes to family law. I felt supported and confident through the whole legal journey with the knowledge that we were following the law. If I had any question regarding the case or how to proceed, Gordon was such a great sounding board. Gordon’s professionalism, years of experience and integrity kept me on the high road throughout the case. He stuck to the objectives we set out with and we achieved our desired outcome without engaging in negative tactics or getting sidetracked by a large volume of narratives from the other party. Gordon and his team paid attention to my needs and ensured that all my needs were addressed promptly and effectively. Overall, these qualities make a family lawyer not just effective, but also a trusted advisor and ally during challenging times.

I don’t typically write reviews, but I felt compelled to do so after the exceptional service I received from Mr. Lotzkar and his staff (Misti and Nicole). I had an incredibly difficult and emotionally taxing case, yet throughout the entire process, Mr. Lotzkar and his team were not only professional but also compassionate and patient. They made me feel like more than just a client, always putting my best interests at the forefront and providing sound, thoughtful advice tailored to my specific situation.
My case took over a year to finalize, and during that time, their unwavering support never faltered. They were consistently straightforward, empathetic, and always available to address my questions or concerns. Even after the resolution of my child support modification, when new and false allegations emerged from my ex, the team sprang into action without hesitation. They took my calls immediately and swiftly handled the new legal motions, ensuring I felt supported every step of the way.
The Lotzkar Law Firm truly goes above and beyond for their clients. I can’t thank them enough for their dedication and relentless advocacy on behalf of me and my children. I will absolutely turn to them again when I need to navigate the legal challenges of moving school districts for my children, and I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone in need of exceptional legal representation.

I would highly recommend Gordon Lotzkar and the Lotzkar Law Firm. Both Gordon and his staff (Misti and Nicole) provided excellent counsel, advice and guidance which turned a very difficult situation into a manageable situation. He and his staff gave me the confidence that I had chosen the right firm to represent me.
Gordon and his staff provided a consistent and professional pragmatic approach which transformed an emotionally charged and unfamiliar situation into a grounded, logical predictable plan to best address and position to achieve a favorable and desired outcome. The result, the process and representation were outstanding.
He (collectively to include his staff) has full command and a deep understanding of the process. They were patient, provided clarity and were always responsive. The focus was on the facts and process. His use of resources and delegation within the team is notable as I am familiar with billing practices, the Lotzkar firm was efficient, highly effective and by far the best value as they are respectful of time and budgets. On all fronts, he truly has his clients' best interests in mind.
Overall, my experience was excellent, refreshing, and I would highly recommend Gordon and his team without hesitation. I consider myself VERY fortunate to have had him and his team on my side.
Thank you!

I am incredibly grateful for my attorney’s assistance throughout this process. Due to a debt collection agency’s error in claiming I owed money, my credit was severely impacted, causing me significant distress. My attorney not only listened patiently to my situation but also took swift action to clear up the misunderstanding and successfully restore my credit. His professionalism, efficiency, and genuine care made me feel truly reassured. I highly recommend this attorney—if you need a reliable legal advisor, he is an outstanding choice. Thank you again!

We were recently hit with an unexpectedly large and unreasonable bill from our apartment management, leaving us feeling overwhelmed and unsure of how to tackle it. With very little time to act, we reached out to Maxim at the eleventh hour, hoping he could provide some guidance. From the moment we connected, Maxim was an absolute lifesaver. He listened intently, asked all the right questions, and immediately jumped into action, treating our case with an urgency and commitment that was truly impressive.
Despite the last-minute notice and complex details, Maxim approached our situation with expertise and precision, analyzing the issue from every angle and coordinating with the apartment management team on our behalf. In less than 24 hours, Maxim not only navigated the complexities of our case but had the issue fully resolved, securing a fair outcome for us. His level of dedication and thoroughness was beyond anything we could have expected.
Maxim kept us updated throughout, explaining each step clearly and ensuring we felt confident in the process. His professionalism, swift response, and genuine commitment to his clients’ well-being make him a truly exceptional attorney. We can’t thank him enough for going above and beyond when we needed it most. If you’re looking for a lawyer who combines deep knowledge with a true passion for helping his clients, Maxim is the one to call!!

I went through an extremely contentious divorce with Rene by my side and thank goodness. I could trust him always to be honest, ethical and to go after our priorities. He is a kind and empathetic human being and also never wavers in his professionalism. My case involved domestic violence which meant added complications and also meant I was even more all over the place emotionally. Rene was always, always a calm, steadying force bringing me back to center, back to integrity and refocusing me on our priorities. Which made it possible for me to advocate as well as I could for myself and my son - if I had not been able to do that it would have been a big regret for me. I imagine that is an accomplishment in most divorces. But when your ex drags you back into court over and over for years it is a major feat - he has the patience of Job. I should also mention we won almost every point, and ultimately accomplished all of our priorities. Not through snarky fighting or misleading arguments or playing on technicalities (which are a horror to experience in court). In court or mediation, Rene is not theatrical or super aggressive, he is confident, reasonable and matter of fact - from what I have witnessed this is very much appreciated by the legal professionals involved. I probably did not have the presence of mind to acknowledge it at the time - but now I feel as good about how we won as I do about winning.
The other thing people always want to know about is cost. It was not cheap, of course, it took a long time and my ex is really good at creating situations I need Rene to handle for me. But Rene has always been more than fair in his charges, accounting for every penny, and never ‘rounding up’ when he could have easily justified it. He is just as ethical in his billing as he is in his practice of law.
Clearly, I recommend him highly. I am trying to remember what I wanted to know before I started this journey. I went to Rene because my cousin (also an attorney) had seen him practice years before and was so impressed she never forgot his name. When I sat down with him he did not say everything was going to go exactly as I wanted nor did he seem resigned to it happening. I don’t like it when people ‘sell’ me by painting a best case scenario only - and there was none of that. He listened very closely and cut straight to the issues that mattered to me and presented options - which is pretty much the definition of a competent attorney. And I remember looking around his office and seeing multiple awards for ethical practice; which in conjunction with my cousin’s recommendation tells me he is well respected in the legal community. Nothing I have experienced in the intervening years has altered that first impression; it has only grown better.

Rene Cespedes was highly recommended to us. Hiring him was one the best decisions we have ever made. I cannot praise his work and caring style enough; he is an exceptional attorney. Rene successfully managed numerous complex family matters over the course of a decade and continues to represent us as needs arise. He is particularly adroit when dealing with challenging situations. I’ve witnessed firsthand the respect and deference Rene garners from colleagues in the legal community for many years. Rene deserves far more than 5 stars.

Rene is more then just legal representative for our family. In representing me in my divorce, he became a champion for my children's custody needs. Rene has represented our family for over 12 years now, continuing to fight for what is in the best interest of the kids financially and emotionally. Rene works to resolve issues outside the court when possible. He focuses on the big picture needs and take time to understand what is best for our family. Rene is fair and just, professional and human. We have referred him to our family and friends when need arises. Our family is better off having Rene on our side!

Brian and Diem changed my life. I cannot thank them enough. They truly care about their clients.
I’ve been drowning in debt for many years. It’s all I could think about. My entire paycheck was going towards minimum payments to creditors. There was no way I was getting out of this without bankruptcy.
I lost my job over the summer and consulted with a handful of attorneys before finding Brian. After filling out an online form, Diem immediately called me and scheduled a consultation for Brian and I that afternoon. He spent over an hour with me, and I learned so much from him. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, and he was ready to act fast! Other attorneys wanted me to wait months to file, and they couldn’t wait to get me off the phone. Brian took time to educate me and make sure I had all the facts. We ended up filing immediately.
Brian was always a text or phone call away to answer all my questions. I was always afraid to file ch 7 bankruptcy, but from the moment I first spoke with Brian, I was at ease. I knew I was in good hands.
The entire process was smooth, no problems whatsoever. Brian made sure I was fully prepared.
I’ve already recommended him to friends who are in a similar situation, and I highly recommend him to whomever is reading this. Please just book a consult with him and start living life free of crippling debt. A huge weight has been lifted. He’s the best of the best.

I cannot say enough good things about Jason, my attorney, and Donna, his paralegal. From the very beginning of my case, they have been nothing short of incredible. I hired Jason and Donna because my spouse had retained an attorney who was aggressive and unpleasant, and I knew I needed someone professional and capable to stand by my side. Jason and Donna exceeded every expectation.
They handled every aspect of my case with professionalism, expertise, and compassion. They truly listened to my concerns, and their guidance gave me confidence throughout this difficult process. Thanks to their hard work, I’ve achieved everything I hoped for up to this point.
Their dedication, responsiveness, and thoroughness have been remarkable. If you’re looking for a team that will fight for you with integrity and skill, Jason and Donna are exactly who you need. I couldn’t be more grateful for their support, and I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of exceptional legal representation.

I cannot thank Jason & Donna enough for their help protecting my children. We had multiple hearings over the course of 8 months. Jason and Donna were available 24/7. No matter what day of the week or time of day, I could reach them if needed. They went above and beyond with their skills and resources to protect my children as if they were their own. We are so very grateful for their time and strong efforts to keep them safe. If I ever need help in the future, I will only use Jason & Donna.

Attorney Palmer was referred to me by an attorney here in Connecticut that I work closely with. I needed an attorney familiar with Elder Care & Trust issues as well as someone who could be trusted to work with me from a distance since the action took place in Seattle & I live in CT.
John went out of his way to keep me informed prior to our mediation hearing on an ongoing basis. He reviewed volumes of documents and was instrumental in helping me formulate an informed decision on what path I should follow during our mediation hearing. John worked diligently throughout the 14 hour process discussing options with the other 4 parties attorneys. With his help a settlement was reached that was agreeable to all parties and one that was very close to my preferred outcome. I would highly recommend Attorney John Palmer!

I am so fortunate to have been represented by Doris in our immigration case. My family went through many complicated steps to achieve my spouses permanent residency. Nevertheless Doris was very meticulous in her work and was prepared for all obstacles. I have a great appreciation for all her knowledge not only in immigration law, but also in real estate law, which was very beneficial to our situation. We have so much gratitude toward Doris for helping us reunite our family. I highly recommend Doris to anyone who needs a lawyer they can trust.

Ms. Eslinger helped me with my estate planning documents a few years ago, including a will and power of attorney documents. During our first meeting, she explained about the probate process, we discussed about the appointment of guardians, executors, and trustees for testamentary trusts. She explained that it was not necessary for me to have a living trust even though she could have collected higher fees for a living trust. She was thorough and professional. She recently also updated my documents for me. I highly recommend her service.

This is the second time I tried an uncontested divorce and it went much much better. The first time was through an online "fill in the blank" site that was useless. This firm provides great directions along the way to try to prevent it from becoming contested. I had to give in a little which is fine so I could get it over with. If it did I had options to try to settle it. Bo is honest about the process and all fees, and tells you exactly what to do. There are NO surprise charges or fees. All in all I'd use this firm again, as he did his job admirably.

He took control of a chaotic situation and I highly recommend his services.

Mr. Weintraub was my lawyer for a modification of child-support gate. I think he did a really good job of figuring out my former spouses actual income versus what was reported and even corrected Washington State’s calculations. He looked at his finances and tax returns and I think his tax background helped a lot which is one reason I hired him. Other lawyers I consulted didn’t point them out. He has a very helpful staff and was less cost than many others quoted, so I’m very happy with his overall work.

I've hired ben four times and have never been disappointed. He handled the creation of my living estate. He handled the creation of a contract for one-off workers. He handled a dicey HR work situation. He explained the methods and processes in making a tricky software business with a partner. In all cases he was prompt clear, polite, and effective with my time. For the living estate he gave me a book he wrote so i could ingest a lot of information before we spoke. Now that is being economical for everyone.

Our non-profit coalition worked with Benjamin Premack to review and update our organizational bylaws. As an attorney, Mr. Premack was very knowledgable about both state law, and best practices. He was a good listener, which helped him develop language that was both legally sound, and would work well with our organizational culture and administrative capacity. And he was a good communicator, coming to our board meeting and patiently explaining the impacts of the proposed changes to a large group with a wide variety of opinions. We had an excellent experience, and would recommend Benjamin Premack to any organization looking for thoughtful legal support.

I would highly recommend him to anyone- during your most vulnerable time- he doesn’t take advantage or act shady. He truly was a godsend, as my parents died within months of each other. I have nothing but good things to say about him. Total respect. If I need another attorney for these matters- I will definitely hire him again.

I had engaged with an attorney to help with my father's estate. She strung me along for two months, telling me filings had been made, documents "in the mail". Deadlines were coming to transfer assets and discovered she had done nothing at all. I called Jason and Madeline and they jumped in right away. They got what they needed from the prior attorney and had my court docs for me the next day so I could move forward with a property sale. Jason is responsive and educated me on the probate process, walking me through every step. Truly saved the day, and I cannot thank them enough. You want to hire these people, without hesitation.

Dennis Brislawn is an exceptional lawyer. He is very professional and he helped me with a difficult problem I was having with a suppressor I bought while I was living in Washington state. I purchased the Bronze level trust of the GUNDOCX Trust system (which Mr. Brislawn created ) in November of 2012 and was approved by the BATFE and received my stamp in May 2013. My husband took a job transfer to Texas and we moved before I could get my suppressor so I applied for a form 20 to transport the suppressor. Things became more difficult for me when the dealer I bought the item from lost their FFL. For several months I tried to get the matter taken care of and it became more difficult since the dealer could not help me . I could do nothing on my own. Then I contacted Dennis around April of this year to see if he could help. He made phone calls and advised me on how he could handle things. He also updated my trust from the Bronze level to a Silver level since I now reside in Texas. I flew to Washington state this June and I was finally able to get my suppressor. Dennis was able to accomplish so much in a short period of time. He is very thorough and he gets the job done

Without Dennis Brislawn, I wouldn't have been able to fulfill a childhood dream of owning a suppressor. I put the wheels in motion back in February of 2013 when I created a trust and applied for the stamp. About 10 months later, the ATF finally approved it and I raced down to my local dealership to pick it up. Unfortunately, during those 10 months, I fulfilled another childhood dream of changing my legal name and this barred me from getting the suppressor since it was for the trust with my former name. I had zero legal experience and no idea what to do. I even considered just eating the cost of the stamp, getting my money back, and abandoning this goal from my bucketlist. Thankfully, I got in touch with Dennis who walked me through the whole process. He knew all the right people to contact, all the forms that needed to be filled out, and he kept me in the loop the entire time. Today, I finally got to thread the suppressor onto my pistol and the smile hasn't left my face since!

I had received a speeding citation from a cop in Pierce county. I went online to try and find an attorney to represent me. I stumbled upon Michael Sheehans reviews and saw he had helped a lot of people. I decided to have him represent me and he did not disappoint. He got my speeding citation dismissed in court and I had to pay nothing to the courts at all! He was a lifesaver for my future career and I appreciate it! It may take alittle time because of the backups in the courts system, but give Michael time and he will not disappoint you. Thank you again Michael for getting rid of the citation.

Received help reviewing a family partnership and a power of attorney document to determine if I understood what each document said as there were multiple family members involved with differing points of view. The discussions were very contentious and so it was important that I correctly understand the options available to me. There were and remain delicate issues as family matters involving property and aging parents often are. The family partnership document was particularly challenging. Diane reviewed both documents carefully and then laid out the information in a way that a non-lawyer could understand. Phone calls were productive and her turn around time in summarizing the call and the information was nothing short of amazing. She is highly skilled, knowledgeable in her field and straightforward and honest in her assessment of the situation as spelled out in the documents. She is also kind and takes to time to get to know you. I felt that I was a person and that I mattered. I would absolutely recommend her.

How will you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a flat fee or by the hour and ask for a detailed estimate of costs. -

A good lawyer should be able to explain the best strategies for minimizing taxes, avoiding probate, and ensuring your assets are distributed according to your wishes. -
How often should I update my estate plan?

Do you offer ongoing support or updates?
Some lawyers provide periodic reviews or updates to ensure your estate plan stays current with changes in your circumstances or the law. -
How will you help my beneficiaries if something happens to me?
Ensure the lawyer is willing to guide your heirs through the estate administration process or help manage your trust after you’re gone.
How to Check the Credibility of an Estate Planning Lawyer
To ensure you’re hiring a credible estate planning lawyer, follow these steps:

- Check for membership in professional organizations: Lawyers who are members of organizations like the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (NAELA) or the American College of Trust and Estate Counsel (ACTEC) often have a strong reputation in the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first meeting with an estate planning lawyer, it’s important to come prepared. Here’s what you should bring:
- List of assets and liabilities: Provide a detailed inventory of your assets, including real estate, bank accounts, retirement funds, investments, and personal property, as well as any debts you may have.
- List of beneficiaries: Be ready to discuss who you want to receive your assets and in what proportions. This includes naming guardians for minor children if applicable.
- Existing estate documents: Bring copies of any existing wills, trusts, powers of attorney, or other relevant estate planning documents.

- Information on medical and financial decision-makers: Be prepared to discuss who you want to appoint for healthcare and financial decisions if you become incapacitated.
By being well-prepared, you can ensure a productive consultation and begin building a comprehensive estate plan that meets your needs and protects your loved ones.
