First of all I would like to thank to Justin for his great work! My case was not easy (don’t want to use the word ugly), but thanks to Justin and his team I manage to win the case and being able to be with my child once again which was the goal from the beginning. The process of the divorce took more than a year and he and his team were with me the whole time. Very patient, persistent and knowledgeable. I will always recommend his service. Good luck to everyone out there.

Justin and staff were a great resource through my divorce, highly recommended

Truce Law is simply the best! Divorce is never easy for anyone but having them on your side makes it a whole lot easier! The team was always prompt, communicative and always had my best interests in mind. 10/10!

If you are looking for a friendly and knowledgeable as well as highly skilled legal team to help you through those family law issues that come up in life, then Truce Law is the place! Competent and friendly staff at all levels puts you at ease. Their rates are very competitive and they are always in communication with you to keep you on top of what they are doing. I highly recommend them to you.

I read a recent review of Patty and I was encouraged to share my similar experience with her in 2021. I had a serious employment matter which led me to Patty. Patty told me she does 2 hour consults at some amount between $400-$500. (I dont recall exactly). I brought a cashier's check (probably by design so you can't pay for just the hour you used) The consult lasted just 1 hour and Patty answered the phone for another client for several minutes while I was still sitting there. I left with the understanding that the remaining hour would be used going forward but in the following days, she stopped returning my phone calls when I needed legal help the most. My experience mirrors other reviews with this “consult fee” up front and lack of follow through. . Patty is a nice person and a pleasure to speak with but I really didn't need to line her pockets while facing a serious, time sensitive employment matter. Seattle is a big city, keep looking.

Divorce is not easy, however Justin and his team made the legal process straightforward. The team kept me apprised of timelines, deliverables and ensured I understood the process each step of the way. The team expressed a genuine concern for my wellbeing, they were thoughtful and professional in all our interactions. All this, and they kept the costs to a minimum. Should you find yourself in need of legal services, I highly recommend Truce Law.

I reached out to Patty to handle an employment issue. I paid a rather exorbitant fee of $500 for two hours of her time. After our initial consultation an hour of time remained. She stated she would research my case further but never did so despite repeated contacts and complaints. She was apparently too busy to handle my case or she decided that the paycheck she was going to earn wasn’t high enough or the case wasn’t important enough because I wasn’t a member of a racial minority. She was willing to refund my fee paid in full, but I would never recommend Patty to any client needing an employment attorney’s help. Because of her I have been unable to recover income lost and earn unemployment income to live on while procuring another job.

Truce Law are very knowledgeable with their job! I filed my divorce with Justin Aanenson and he did a fantastic job. My divorce was quick and easy with Justin. He was able to get my divorce within three months and everything was resolved. Very professional with his job. I will recommend him to anyone who want to do their divorce quick and stress free.

Hanna Oh handled our divorce and made the process play out smoothly. I'll definitely use her for my next one. Would recommend.

Justin did a nice job with a long term marriage ending in divorce. He did a good job of listening to my concerns and providing guidance during the process. He allowed me to research a few things on my own. He is very detailed and professional.

Justin was very knowledgeable and nice to work with. I would definitely recommend him if you fine yourself needing a lawyer.

This is the worst lawyer I have ever interacted with in 47 years. To my surprise, I found a review of Ms. Rose by reviewer "Kelley" in 2015. Wow, I was shocked! it is one thing to read criticism from another reviewer. It is another thing when the conduct described by a stranger matches line by line what the business/person, did to you. That is not a coincidence. When I read the review by "kelley", I was shocked that Ms. Rose had done this type of thing to other vulnerable people. She is the first lawyer I have ever interacted with who made my situation more stressful and less legally viable to the point that I had to walk away and eat the $500 deposit. Lawyers I have interacted with in the past, help you with your situation. The retainer fee and scope of work is signed easily with no drama. NOT WITH PATTY ROSE. I am just grateful that I was able to retain actual legal assistance and walk away before it was too late! I succeeded in my hearing despite her efforts. I called her on the phone and she offered a free consult and proposed a $750 flat fee for her help with all services required in preparation for my unemployment hearing with the OAH. During our initial consult, Ms. Rose seemed nice. She offered my mom and I a convenient weekend consult (July 25th). While we were there she spoke about offering personal investigative services, legal research work and more, for a total flat fee of $1250 with a $500.00 deposit. On July 25th we asked her to send over a fee agreement +scope of work and promised we would send the $500. What we received via email was a contract that had zero language in it about a flat fee. We were both dumbfounded. We asked her why this was the case and she apologized and said she would send us another. We received this new fee agreement on July 29th. Again, none of the language in the contract described a flat fee and a scope of work remotely close to what she had committed to in person on the 25th. Still, having never experienced anything like this previously, in good faith we sent her the $500 which she cashed the first week of August. From there we talked several more times. Each time she promised to send over a fee agreement resembling what we had all agreed upon. Thank GOSH we never agreed to sign any of the other random unrelated contracts! Having retained over 30 attorneys between the both of us, neither of us had ever had a lawyer behave this way. Each of us called attorney friends of ours who instructed us "to run away" from this attorney. As stressed as I was with getting my documents prepared for my hearing with the OAH, Ms. Rose made it 100 times worse, increasing my stress level with her mental games and repeated submission of documents that bore zero relation to anything she committed to in person or by email. What kind of horrible person would do something like this to someone already dealing with the stress of fighting the OAH for unemployment owed?! I wrote an email to her stating that I was grateful that she did this to me-someone who had the resources, extended timeline, and legal experience to know that her behavior was so out of line that she was violating the principles of the Washington State Bar. While she might be great at researching employment law and well connected in employment law forums, she is a lazy SCAM artist who brings people in with her free consultation. People who provider her with the $500 are so committed and suffering such stress, they stick with her. They rely on her doing the work that they either can't or won't do themselves. When she loses your case because she performs zero work she tells you that she is primed to represent you in District court for five times the amount of money. I don't care how many attorneys refer to Patty Rose for her free consultations and employment experience, DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BELIEVE THAT SHE WILL WORK TO MAKE YOUR SITUATION BETTER.
