Very honest person.

This law firm could not have done less to help us. We met with Dean once and he assured us we had a case. Besides staring at my wife inappropriately, and telling us a very long story about his daughter who was on a troubled kids retreat, we saw nor heard from him again after signing the paperwork. We were then passed off to a paralegal associate for communication concerning our case. We had one phone call with the insurance company where we provided the same information that we gave to Dean. The insurance company stated there were denying any claim for my injuries and we were told there would be a follow up conversation with Dean to discuss our next step. After waiting several months to hear from Dean or his paralegal I wrote an email to check in. I did not receive any communication until a letter arrived from Dean stating that he would no longer be representing us. In short, Dean is your man if you've a case that is a sure win. In the event there is any work to be done I recommend looking elsewhere. This office is only in business for the easy cases.

I have been working with Dean and Leslie since my car accident in July of 2015. Having sustained a head injury, I knew I needed outside help so I could focus on getting better. I was referred to Dean and I couldn't be more grateful for the support and services he and Leslie have provided me over the past year and half. They are easy to communicate with, thorough and so dedicated. My accident was/is complicated. I was hurt on the job and the other driver at fault denied responsibility after admitting fault at the accident. Dean was able to get the other driver's insurance accept full liability after a year of fighting for me. We still haven't closed this case but I have complete trust in his firm. I recommend Dean to anyone who is injured and in need of legal help. He is the absolute best in Seattle

I hired Shaw Law Group working with Bridgett and her partner to gain legal advisement on educational law issues, and I had a similar experience as another person who wrote a review. I spent $400 on tasks I could have completed on my own or had already done on my own. They detailed what they did for the $400 I paid for services, which gave me a few new pieces of information but overall very little that I wouldn't have already discovered on my own. It was only my second time ever needing legal advisement, and it subpar, where I've had much more luck with free legal advisement services and greater care/customer service. It seemed that they lacked the confidence to direct a case or advisement successfully and didn't really want to be involved, but of course, they could accept money. I needed sound navigation advisement, which was not given, only that I was dealing with "good ole boy, good ole girl" education issues. That's not what you pay legal advisement for, especially in a place where it is important to navigate culture and legalities. I received a parking ticket while on a visit to one of their locations, which they paid, likely because they probably already sensed my disappointment in their services. I was appreciative, but it just seemed to reiterate the wasted time and money aspect. I was in email conversations back and forth on topics, but would be pushed off because I had reached a limit to what they could do with what I paid for services. I believe the tasks completed would have been worth no more than $100-200 of their time at best. I would not recommend these lawyers as they seem to lack confidence and sound legal advisement for important situations, especially in areas where you are spending a considerable amount of money on education services where you need answers. Like in a previous review, I'm sharing my experience to help prevent others from spending money on services you don't receive for the money you pay. With a few minutes on the phone in correct advisement, I could have done what they did for me myself. Disappointing.

Bridget was hired as a consulting attorney to determine the best school for my children. She took 9 months to basically do a phone interview with a handful of people, cost me over $3000 to do so , then came out with an opinion anyone could have made reading a parent magazine. My children are both special needs and I really was counting on Bridget to make a well informed, insightful, thorough decision. I am a teacher by profession so when I read her report I was devastated. She did not choose the school I felt and still feel was appropriate for my kids but I could have lived with that if she had really shown she had worked hard to come to her decision. We all really want to have faith in our legal system and rely on people like Bridget to take our cases seriously. When I take my kids to the doctor, have my car fixed, or even send them to school everyday, I trust they are with the best, most professional, hard worhing expert in that field. I am spending time writing this review because I'm hoping to prevent another parent and/or person from this experience. There are so many other attorneys out there who really do care and really will work hard to guide and council.

Mr. Perkins was my attorney when I was struck by someone who did not have insurance. I was fully covered and figured that my own insurance company would compensate me fairly for the damages to my car and the injuries I received. They wern't. As a matter of fact, they wanted to settle immediately and the dollar amount was more than insulting. I found Perkins & Associates in the YP and found him and his staff to be friendly and easy to work with. My questions and concerned were handled professionally competantly. It took about 8 months for the case to be settled out, but ultimately, my car was fixed completely, my injuries were treated by a chiropractor and paid for by my PIP insurance AND I received money in my pocket as well. I HIGHLY recommend Dean Perkins & Associates to handle a personal injury case. I couldn't be happier.
