Glen St.Louis has been my attorney since June 2013 in a child custody modification action. He was referred to me by another attorney. We just completed the case. I am very impressed with his skills and how he looked out for my interests, explained everything clearly, and didn’t waste time or money. He was thoughtful, realistic and transparent with me and followed through on everything he said he could do. He is very highly qualified and obviously put a lot of thought into my case. He advised me very well. And while he made a very good impression in Court, his skills go outside the courtroom to develop a good human and evidentiary strategy and reach out into the community to find the experts and witnesses needed to put together a solid case for his client. I would hire him again if I needed to. His fees were very reasonable.

This is a recommendation in the highest regard for the legal services of attorney Mr. Glen St.Louis and his fine staff who tirelessly worked for me for almost 2 years with a very difficult ex-husband in a divorce case. Mr. St.Louis and his staff were outstanding. This is the second time I have used the services of Mr. St.Louis as he represented me in an earlier civil case around 8 years ago which also ended very favorably for me. We just recently completed the trial in my recent divorce case in Snohomish County, and Mr. St.Louis was talented, skilled and thoughtful in building a case that got a very good parenting plan, the best one for our children; obtained a property distribution for me that allowed me to keep my house and all of my retirement, plus an additional $10,000 on top of that! Mr. St.Louis was very well prepared and organized for court and made a presentation to the Judge that she appreciated and respected. My ex decided to settle the case on the first day of trial when Mr. St.Louis displayed the trial skills to slowly dismantle my ex’s case to shreds, not giving him an inch. By the time Mr. St.Louis was done, my ex was hanging his head in disbelief and despair. Mr. St.Louis handled all aspects of my divorce in a highly competent, professional and skilled manner. In court he has great attitude and smoothness with no hesitation with his lines of attack. His low key panache and command of the law and facts display his confidence and strength. Mr. St.Louis is very good at reading people and was aggressive only when needed, as to not increase the tension in my situation. My ex's attorney withdrew from the case when she discovered that Mr. St.Louis was representing me. His fees were reasonable and he even gave me a $1,000 discount at the end of trial in order to help provide a smooth economic transition for myself. I highly recommend Mr. St.Louis and his staff with no hesitation for the highest quality legal services.

I think Glen St.Louis is the best, most responsible, creative and thoughtful attorney I have ever hired. He represented me in my King County parentage action where the mother had been very difficult for years and made many false allegations toward me and my wife of everything from sexual abuse, alcohol abuse, drug abuse and anything she could think of in order to keep me away from my son. Mr. St.Louis worked very hard on my case for almost a year in a modification that finally resulted in 2013 of me being awarded custody of my son. Mr. St.Louis demonstrated through his highly organized talent of putting together and presenting evidence in court, knowledge of rules and law that every one of the mother’s accusations against me were false. Mr. St.Louis is a master as strategy in complex family law cases. He is not a quitter and worked very hard and smart for me and my child. Mr. St.Louis followed up on all his work and went beyond what I expected of an attorney. He won attorney fees awards against the mother and was very agile at dealing with the mother’s attorney in court. He was even available on some weekends to work with me because of my work schedule. Mr. St.Louis brought 5 or 6 motions in court over the year of the court case, on everything ranging from motions for adequate cause, motions for temporary orders, to contempt motions, to appointment of evaluating psychologists and trial continuances, and Mr. St. Louis won every motion in my favor that he brought. He practically embarrassed the other attorney because he was very well organized and made very good oral arguments. He also won for me attorney fees and costs on the motions. At one motion for compelling a psychological evaluation of the mother 45 days before trial, the Judge first was shaking his head “no” at the beginning of the argument , and it didn’t look good, but by the end of Mr. St.Louis’s argument , the Judge was shaking his head “yes” and we won the motion and the mother was ordered to undergo a psychological evaluation. That psychological evaluation of the mother was the key to putting the final ding in the mother’s case and Mr. St.Louis was practically a genius for his timing, and his knowledge to win the motion right before trial. That motion and psychological evaluation of the mother eventually resulted in me getting custody of my son. I want to say that now that my son is with me, he is happy, thriving and has a stable home. Had it not been for Mr. St.Louis’s hard work, skill, presence in court, and knowledge, I would not have my son living with me today. I highly recommend Mr. Glen St.Louis as a selection for a family law attorney. In court he has presence and the Judges do listen to what he has to say.

  I hired family law attorney Glen St.Louis to represent me as a petitioner in a protection order hearing early in 2013 based on a recommendation of a friend.   I was very pleased with Mr St.Louis’s representation and his command of the facts and law in my case.  I’m a single mother of two young children from another country and had been harassed by several people who were friends of my former live-in boyfriend who is an attorney.  One of his friends kept telling me to “go back where you came from” and following me around.   I was very scared to go to court because I feared I would not be treated fairly (she was a therapist). Mr. St.Louis did an excellent job of presenting the facts and law to the Court to show I was being harassed and to make the link to my former live-in boyfriend and his friend who made the comments directed to annoy, embarass and humiliate me.  The Court found the comments by the woman to me to be “racist” and “unacceptable in Seattle” and gave me a protection order and attorney fees against this perso.  The Court complimented and agreed with Mr. St.Louis’s thoughtful analysis  to show the racism and discrimination toward me.  Mr. St.Louis gave me hope in a legal system where I’m a minority.  He was excellent in thinking on his feet to the Court’s questions and had a very good command of family law and discrimination law to show what happened to me was not to be tolerated.  He's very professional in and out of court.  His legal fee and cost was very reasonable and less expensive than other attorneys I talked with for advice.  I'd use Mr. St.Louis’s legal services again in a minute for any kind of a discrimination or family law matter.  He's an excellent attorney.

Glen St.Louis was my attorney from March 2011 until completion of trial a year ago in mid-summer 2012. He is one of the hardest, smartest working attorneys in court that I have ever hired. I trust his legal judgment without question. Before I hired Mr. St.Louis, I had lost my 19 month old son due to incompetence from a prior attorney, and another attorney making a misrepresentation in court. I spoke with 22 other attorneys to get my baby back before hiring Mr.St.Louis. Mr.St.Louis was the only attorney that gave me advice that was different than everyone else, and it was very creative, insightful and ultimately it allowed me to get my baby back. That was because he really studied the case and learned it from front to back The divorce process with my husband was very high conflict. I was misdiagnosed with psychological illnesses and my baby was taken from me though he was doing fine with me and had never had any psychological issues in my life. Mr. St.Louis reviewed all the professional reports and record of over 400 court filings and he brought a very good “motion to vacate” the first case, and won on 9 out of 10 reasons before the Chief Family Court Judge. He totally destroyed the parenting evaluator and psychologists reasons for taking my baby. He exposed how the corrupt recommendation happened and how the system made a big mistake. And got the facts and law wrong. The Judge agreed and I got my baby back after nearly a year separation from me. The Judge found Mr. St.Louis very well organized and in command of the facts and the law. The Judge agreed with Mr. St.Louis and wrote a 10 page opinion to withstand any appeal. Mr.St.Louis completely shut down the other experienced law firm in court. Then we had to go to trial six months later after he won the motion to vacate, and at trial he and fellow attorney, Stuart Brown, did a brilliant trial job of dismantling my husband’s, parenting evaluator and psychologist case all over again over a three week trial. Mr. St.Louis had over 535 exhibits prepared and all of them, except one, were admitted into evidence. He is very masterful with evidence rules in court and a natural at cross examination. Twice the Judge changed her rulings against my attorney on an evidence rule, after Mr. St.Louis politely educated her to the cases and the law. He knows how to catch people in their lies and destroy their credibility. Mr. St.Louis and Mr. Brown at trial were so prepared that we did not have to put on one witness because they completely destroyed and shut down my husband and his expert’s case. Eight witnesses against me and eight witnesses destroyed on the witness stand by my lawyer, repeatedly caught in lies and prejudice (I am from a foreign country) that gave me hope for justice when I had almost lost all hope. When my husband got done putting on his case, he wanted to settle and gave me permanent custody. That is how good Mr. St.Louis was at trial. He won by destroying the other sides case before it even got started. I still have my little boy, and I am in the process of suiting the psychologist and parenting evaluator for malpractice and negligence for all the economic and psychological damage it caused me and my son. I will always be grateful to both Mr. St.Louis for the preparation work and his expertise at trial. He is brilliant and a great personality in court. I highly recommend him.

Glen helped me with my visitation issue. He was aggressive when he needed to be. Kept me informed but also didnt fill me with false hope. He's straight forward, tells you what to expect good or bad. He also worked with me on payment. I can't begin to describe how that helped me since at the time I was unemployed. He definetely thinks out of the box. On all matters. Thanks Glen.

We would highly recommend Mr. St. Louis. In our opinion, he is an excellent attorney and has given us good advice. He uses very sound strategy, and our position in this case has improved tremendously since he began managing it. He is knowledeable about the law, works well with others in the family law field (GAL's, etc.) and has shown us to be a person of integrety.

Glen is a very intelligent lawyer. He is a straight shooter and very honest. He has the ability to see 5 moves ahead, like a master chessman. I appreciate his candor and his integrity. You will not find a better lawyer in the courtroom. My opposition in my legal issue has been through 3 attorneys in 12 months. Glen is respectful but his knowledge of the law, and his ability to read people is intimidating to fellow attorneys. He is a moral man, he is a good person. He has helped me through the most frustrating time in my life. Glen is a consummate professional, my father was an attorney for many years, so I have known quite a few. Glen is hands down the best man I have ever had good fortune to deal with. His knowledge and his honesty are beyond reproach. You will not be disappointed should you find yourself needing legal representation.
