I highly recommend SGB. We are especially pleased with all the work that Sergio Garcidueñas-Sease and their team have done for us! I was able to rest easy knowing that they had all the details of our case handled. I could continue to focus on supporting my family and especially my son on his healing journey without the added stress of dealing with all the insurance companies. Their patient, kind, and professional manner were appreciated and they took special care in explaining the process and procedure in terms that both my teenage son and I understood. I am forever indebted to them, their team, and to their former colleague for the referral.

While driving south on I-5 in Tacoma, an underinsured motorist sideswiped a dump-truck causing it to spin around and go north in the southbound lanes and hitting us head-on. We were crushed between the spinning dump-truck, the car that caused the accident and the car that rear-ended us. We hired Schroeter Goldmark & Bender to represent us. The insurance carrier for the underinsured motorist paid us the limits under their policy. Our own insurance company basically made an offer of zero to cover life-altering and permanent injuries. Our team at SGB of Sergio Garcidueñas-Sease, Lindsay Halm, Adam Berger and Alder Burgess took over for us. One of the most important things they did was to shield us from the stone-walling, delaying tactics of our own insurance company to whom we had paid premiums for more than 30 years. From the beginning they handled the case as if it would end up in litigation. You need attorneys like SGB that have your back and are not afraid to go to court if that is what it takes. They had the added challenge of doing this during Covid. Thank goodness for Zoom conferences. We ultimately got a court date. Two months prior to our court date, we went to mediation, via Zoom. We didn't hold out much hope for mediation, but we were willing to make an attempt. What a surprise when the insurance company came to mediation finally willing to negotiate. After a full day of the mediator going back and forth between Zoom rooms, we came to a fair monetary settlement. We are convinced that the insurance company, even then, was only willing to negotiate because Sergio and the rest of his team were well prepared bulldogs willing to go to court if mediation failed. As they like to say "This was not their first rodeo". A car accident is horrible. You need the best attorneys you can find to protect your interests. Besides being professional and knowing the law inside and out, Sergio and the rest of the team are compassionate and truly care about their clients. We strongly recommend them to anyone who needs their services. Without Sergio and SGB our insurance company would have paid us nothing.

I hired Sergio for an auto accident claim. Sergio met with me and my spouse and we discussed our case. Sergio was very professional and laid out the process very clearly. Sergio was very upfront about expectations regarding my case and I was very appreciative of that. Sergio worked very diligently for me and kept me apprised of each step he was taking. I was very impressed with Sergio's work, given we were in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic. In the end Sergio was able to get us a settlement that was better than expected. I would call on Sergio again and refer him to others for assistance.

Tamaki law is the supreme and unsurpassed Law Firm with the most committed lawyers that go above and beyond for their clients. I was referred to Sergio Garciduenas-Sease and I could not be any more happier that this occurred. I actually wish I started off my case with Tamaki Law right off the bat! With Tamaki Law their service and dedication is incomparable and truly like no other. I got into a collision when I was only 15 years old. It was the most impactful moment in my life. I suffered PTSD and various other injuries. It significantly impacted my teenage years. However, Mr. Garciduenas-Sease at Tamaki Law made sure to get the Justice I needed and truly deserved. Mr. Garciduenas-Sease and Tamaki Law supported me in ways I never expected. Mr. Garciduenas-Sease was my attorney and he truly believes in Justice. I believe God put Mr. Garciduenas-Sease in my path to find deserved compensation for my physical and mental injuries. He definitely made me feel like I was his only client. I could email him at any time with any concerns or questions and I received quick responses! I've never seen anyone be so devoted to their profession. At times I couldn’t get rides to the Tamaki law office for appointments, so they even provided transportation! That was one of the most heart touching moments! I would always get pep talks by Mr. Garciduenas-Sease before any major process I'd have to go through. He would take as much time as I needed with him (even up to 1 hour or 2 hours) to explain every single key point. I never left his office in doubt or worried. I always left encouraged and ready for the next step. Words cannot explain how great Mr. Garciduenas-Sease is and how truly passionate about his profession and how deeply he cares about his clients. He is very engaging, tireless, studious, and diligent. This man is a true artist of his profession. I know his job is his life he will not give up until he finds your individual Justified needs you are looking for. I have never met a lawyer like Mr. Garciduenas-Sease. I am 100% sure he is one of the top ranked lawyers in the Yakima Valley! And he speaks fluent Spanish too! I could say I found my Justice and Equity I could not be more satisfied with Tamaki law and most of all their best dedicated lawyer Mr. Garciduenas-Sease. I've gained all the compensation I could ever ask for!

Dealing with adverse insurance companies can be very daunting and overwhelming. Before seeking advice from Sergio, I felt as if my case did not stand a chance. Sergio took the time to carefully listen to not only the facts of the incident but also how I felt about the whole situation. He was very accomodating and thoroughly explained my rights to me, while also detailing what legal remedies were available. He gave me a list of suggestions, but ultimately enabled me to make the final decision. I don't wish any personal injury cases on anybody, but if such an incident occurs, I highly recommend Sergio.

Sergio represented me in a personal injury case and was very good at explaining every step of the process and my options. Dealing with the insurance companies left me feeling overwhelmed and having Sergio as my advocate really alleviated the stress of the situation. Due to the accident and the medical bills, I was placed in collections. Sergio was able to correct my credit report and get that information taken off. Thanks to Sergio, we reached a better settlement than I could have ever imagined. It was a long daunting process and I was really glad to have Sergio by my side.

Sergio was awesome, when I first talked to him he told me he would fight for me and do the best he can to make the case as painless for me as possible. I was his client for over a year and a half. Throughout that time he was respectful and really cared about the treatment I started and how I was feeling. Never once did he pressure me to settle early or any of those bad stories you hear about injury lawyers. Sergio was very professional and answered every question or concern I had. I recommend anybody that has an injury and not sure about what to do to go to Tamaki Law and ask for Sergio because he will take care of you to the best of his abilities. I am so fortunate that he handled my case. There is not enough words to describe how great he was and how grateful I am.

I contacted a few attorneys before contacting Sergio. They were not timely and one was not friendly at all. I was the one who was hurt and when going to the others they didn't seem to show me that my case would be important, although they would take it. Sergio and his para-legal were absolutely amazing. He has always made time to talk to me and answer my 10-million questions, haha. He has worked hard for me and always was in communication with me, not once has he been unreliable. I would recommend him in a heart beat, no question about it. Thank you for everything you have accomplished for me Sergio.
