Called in with questions about Advanced Directives. I was given incredibly helpful advice that allowed me to find resources regarding my situaiton; connect with an attorney that is an expert in the field I was searching for, and quickly resolve my issue. I would absolutely call Northwest Legal again.

Caitlin Mitchell and her team did a phenomenal job handling my case, and I couldn't be more impressed with her professionalism and expertise. Caitlin always took the time to listen to my concerns and explain the process, keeping me informed at every stage. Her attention to detail and her dedication made all the difference. When I needed a voice, she provided it. The outcome exceeded my expectations, especially considering how challenging and complex the case was to navigate. Caitlin is compassionate, knowledgeable, and fully committed to her clients. She transformed an intimidating process into one where I felt valued and supported, protecting my rights every step of the way. I highly recommend Caitlin Mitchell and her team.

We had a very bad experience with Mr. Hwang. This was the only appointment we had with him. I think he is impersonal, angry, self absorbed and not patient. What do people need when they are going through the worst of their lives? -Patience, kindness and awareness of other people’s feelings, as death can be devastating for the family and friends. Knowledge without these traits is like getting a big enciclopedia. Please read all the reviews that have been written about him. I did not before setting an appointment, and regretted it.

Jinoo is a very knowledgeable and experienced attorney, responsive and thorough in leading his clients through the process. He has a fine way of connecting with people. He is not only professional but also caring in interacting with his clients. He is very patient. He intentionally repeats key concepts time and time again to drive the point through to his clients. And because he gave us the heads-up and explained his rationales, we found his advice very helpful. We are very grateful for his invaluable service and would recommend him to anyone in a heartbeat.

Mr. Hwang represented me in a very difficult estate. I was the personal representative. He guided me adroitly through some very unusual twists and turns. He help me use a specialist attorney for a controversy involving a Contractor. He always provided very precise instructions His legal documents and pleadings were thorough and clear. His attention to detail and precise wording make sure there were no loopholes And kept me protected from adverse parties. In negotiations with some third parties, he was tough and put the others on their heels, resulting in the best outcome for me as his client and for the estate. I have seen many of Mr. Hwang’s estate planning packages Including wills and trusts. . They are impressive, incorporating contemporary elements that reflect up-to-date best practices. I do have a basis for comparison because I see a lot of estate plans given that I am a professional fiduciary and am often in the position of administering trusts and estates. Mr. Hwang gets my top rating!

Northwest Legal did an outstanding job putting together our somewhat complicated estate planning. Jinoo covered all the bases to make sure my husband and I, as well as our beneficiaries, are protected. I can’t say enough about the professionalism and dedication shown to us on every aspect of our estate. We and our grown children (live in a different state) are very grateful to know that when the time comes, all the legal aspects of managing our affairs have been already professionally addressed and Northwest Legal is just a phone call away should they need them. Thank you so much Jinoo and Stephanie! David and Teresa Williams

Jinoo Hwang was referred to me by another lawyer who recommended him for his skills in creating a trust that was more useful for me because it was applicable in all 50 states and not just one. Jinoo's knowledge of recent changes in trust laws were invaluable in creating a trust which is inclusive of my estate but also allows me the flexibility to designate specific things to individuals in the event of my passing. The final piece that I was impressed with was the succession of trustees and the inclusion of a third party to act as the trustee in case of need. All trustees are fiduciary and charged with administering the trust in my best interest. This final piece afforded me much peace of mind. I recommend Jinoo's services in this manner.

Loved working with Jinoo. You are not just a file number to him, he really cares about you and your family. He also does a fantastic job of explaining and walking you through, step by step, what you are dealing with so you leave confident in what he has helped you with. Very highly recommend!!!

Friendly customer/client support knowledgeable and experienced to current laws

Keith Semple is an outstanding attorney. I appreciate his knowledge, experience, respect, and kindness. He is prompt to reply to phone calls and emails and he works hard for his clients. He makes you feel like a priority. Anyone would be fortunate to be represented by Keith Semple.

They're not very good at returning emails. They fail to follow through on promises and reject your case without investigating it in it's entirety. I spent months going back and forth with the same attorney who did not deliver the service he claimed he was going to give just for him to raise my pressure and tell me NO. I also sense some fishy behavior behind this situation as well. If you're an innocent or guilty white person, you would stand a chance in fairness and obtaining legal representation. However, innocent blacks who are by far not remotely guilty?....Please do yourself a favor and don't waste your time calling this firm.

Commingling attorneys who do not correct their failures and then proceeded to hire their criminal friends I have reported them to the bar numerous times right now and they’re under investigation for unlawful conduct lack of ethics and also I have an investigation into the criminal conspiracy. That’s been ongoing with my families money. Ian Richardson will not even speak to me and I have a fiduciary duty to perform.
