I hired Ms. April back in 2016 to help me with my divorce. She handled everything professionally, with promptness, and patiently answered all my questions. Because I had such a great experience I decided to seek her help again when it was time to file for a child support modification. Just like the last time, she made everything go smoothly. I would definitely recommend Ms. April.

Erik is a skilled attorney who is able to act strategically to get results. His experience and effectiveness is invaluable in overcoming challenging situations. His services are highly recommended.

Hiring Erik as my divorce attorney was the best decision I made for my divorce. As a cardiologist, my mindset was that I must protect what is mine and fight to win. I initially hired the most expensive high end attorney and law firm in Tacoma, and it was a disaster. I successfully wasted money, probably close to $50,000 to $100,000 and got no where. My ex-wife hired a sleaze ball attorney that would do anything to drain more lawyers fees out of me to pay his fee. While my first attorney didn’t do anything unethical, but he was unable to manage my case in a manner that would be in my best interest long term. He was also impossible to reach, and I felt like my case was not a priority. When I asked to mediate, he came up with reasons not to “give up.” Finally, and most importantly, he could not provide an accurate forecast of how my divorce was going to go. My divorce was an expensive mess and the best thing that happened to me is my attorney fired me. Let’s just say I let him know how unhappy I was with the amount I was spending. So I hired Erik, solo attorney, no big law firm. I just wanted out of my divorce. Erik was not only significantly less expensive than my previous attorney, but he was more experienced and consciences about the particulars of my case. He spent a significant amount of time (which he did NOT bill) to explain why my divorce put me at risk longterm and that I needed to settle and mediate. Erik was able to provide a forecast of My divorce and it was spot on. He cleaned up my case. He got me out of contempt (another screw up from my first attorney), provided expert personal guidance, and negotiated a settlement in my favor (well relative favor) with my ex-wife’s sleaze ball attorney to get me divorced quickly. Erik isn’t flashy and doesn’t have a website with a bunch of Pizazz. He isn’t trying to please his buddies or court judges during trial. He is to the point, honest, get the job done the way it should be in the clients best interest. No BS. ”This is how it is,” “this is what we want to avoid for your case,” let’s get you divorced and on with your life.” I never want to get divorced again and I don’t wish it upon anyone, but if you are a soon to be ex-husband, go with Erik.

I've never been a fan of lawyers. In fact, I've tried to avoid using a lawyer since my divorce in 2016. When I did hire one in the past, it was a horrible experience. In the past couple years my ex had filed multiple petitions, one of which was to change the parenting plan that we've had for years, and take my kids from me. At this point I knew I needed to hire a lawyer again, but based on my previous poor experience I made sure to pay more attention to how the lawyer operates. My experience with Ms. April was great since my consultation. I appreciate how straight forward and "matter of fact" she is. She is highly knowledgeable of the law and straight to the point. She listened to my concerns and represented those concerns well. Ms. April excels in the courtroom as well. She clearly states facts and evidence without the "fluff" and is very well spoken. I was very impressed. After working with her, I know why she is respected among many in the community. I wouldn't hesitate at all to use her again in the future. I strongly recommend her. Thanks for your help Ms. April, I appreciate everything!

I would recommend Sophia to anyone needing a divorce attorney. She is extremely knowledgeable about the law, professional, and responsive. She is a good listener who will work hard to get the best outcome for you. She is also very honest and up front about your case and doesn’t just tell you want you want to hear. Her demeanor is such that she makes a difficult and sometimes stressful process less so.

She helped me with my custody case, and was excellent. Gave me all the information I needed to make sure I knew my rights, and answered every question I had, no matter how silly it might have been. I definitely recommend her!!!

And by far these women in this law office know what there doing and your money is worth it . Stacy did a fabulous job I highly recommend her to anybody!!!!!

Kimberly handled my legal separation and when the time came, my final decree of divorce. She was always prompt, compassionate, and a pleasure to work with.

I highly recommend Ms. April and her paralegal Ms. Olenick. Both of them were always on top of their game and kept me updated on court proceedings. Ms. April did an excellent job understanding my concerns and addressing them appropriately during my divorce and custody hearings. I always felt prepared and confident with Ms. April as my representation. She went above and beyond my expectations. I will always recommend her to anyone needing a divorce/custody lawyer in the Tacoma area. Thank you!

Kimberly April is a fantastic attorney who worked extremely hard on my case from beginning to end. She was extremely attentive and answered all of my questions. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you need an amazing attorney who will work hard to get you what you deserve.

Erik is a talented attorney; incisive, on point, and aggressive in the best way. He is the man you want in your corner. I would recommend him for any family law case for which you a need strong, ethical, and focused lawyer.
