Hugh McGavick was exactly who I needed for my case. I had an employment related legal situation, where my employer changed what we had originally agreed to for my retention. Originally, a bonus for my retention through a specific date was agreed to. Upon my last day, they sent a separation agreement that did not include this bonus, and even included wording that if I sign the separation agreement, I would be waiving all claims, obligations, etc. with the company, and it even specifically included bonuses. I obviously was concerned about this, but the company refused to amend the agreement to include the bonus they had already agreed to, and told me they would pay it out after I signed the agreement... an agreement that made them not legally liable to do so. I've never needed legal aid before, so I had no idea where to start, but I was able to find Avvo, which led me to Hugh. Hugh wasted no time and after I contacted him, explained the situation, and paid for his services, he went after the company quickly. He made sure to gather from me all the information he needed, and presented the facts to the company in an organized and clear way, while also citing the laws and governing bodies for Washington they were potentially violating. As someone who knows nothing about this sort of thing, it really was helpful to know how employment and wage laws in Washington applied to me and my case. The company sent the bonus after Hugh's involvement, and Hugh is honest with billable hours as well. He sent me an itemized invoice after our business was concluded, that showed how he spent every moment on our case, and even refunded me part of the balance as I had paid for more time than was needed. I couldn't be happier with the help I received from Hugh!

With Hugh McGavick, I was represented better than I could have ever imagined. My needs were put first and I was treated as a friend rather than a number. My opinions were valued and my doubts were reassured. My nerves were calmed and the process was always explained thoroughly. Hugh McGavick went above and beyond and did everything he could to ensure a great outcome. I couldn't have asked for a better representation.

For more than twenty three years Mr. McGavick has handled cases for myself as well as family members with outstanding results. He is honest, ethical and really cares about his clients. He will not waste your time or your money. I highly recommend Mr. McGavick.
