Very reliable and knowledgeable. Mrs. Baner helped me move the case quickly and effectively. I think she is the best for family law in WA.

I hired Mrs. Baner to assist me in a post divorce mediation situation. While I had initially opened to work through mediation without representation the other party obtained counsel and while I never felt inability to represent myself the handling by legal on the other side made it clear I was not seen as an equal or something to be given respect and open communication. After being manipulated and shoved around and give false/bogus legal threats to try to intimidate me it became clear that I would not be respected or taken seriously without having my own legal counsel. I spoke with approximately half a dozen attorney's and was turned off by many. In the same way the counter parties counsel had approached me and handled the situation so many attorney's pitched themselves as being aggressive and being able to "get a win", that they almost seemed eager for a fight. I always tried to open up with my situation not being about winning but being taken as an equal party in mediation (which ironically shouldn't even require an attorney) and making sure a lack of representation was not (if only perceptual) a disadvantage. Mrs. Baner understood my position on the matter, what I was actually looking for, and actually understood what I was not looking to do which was equally as important to me. She was not afraid to correct me thoughts and views when they were truly not going to be legally sound (and thus be of no value in mediation) but also fully supportive on the items that would be of merit. I hired her to both diffuse any legal bulldozing by opposing counsel but also to make sure I did not equally make a fool of myself or waste time arguing things that were perhaps subjectively and emotionally valuable but legally of no value in our case. After hiring Miranda I had several attorneys circle back with me and every single one of them said the same thing "I'm sorry I wasn't able to work with you on this but you made a good choice", and that was unsolicited feedback. It became very clear how well known Miranda is and in my experience how respected she is in the legal community. Miranda was well acquainted with our mediator and while there was no impropriety she was informed from prior mediations how best to communicate our position and to put us in the best position to argue our case. Every case is going to be unique but if you are looking for someone to represent *YOU* well, someone that is in my opinion known for the right reasons, this firm needs to be on your short list. She won't sugar coat things, she will tell you when your wrong, and when the time comes to present your case you will have a known quantity. The impression I had from beginning to end is that Miranda is just as selective in the cases she takes and the clients she chooses to work with. Some people look for certain traits in their legal representation and its important to make sure you have a match on both sides. For my family and our case, Miranda was exactly what I was looking for.

I feel so lucky to have found Miranda. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and never minded answering my multitude of questions. Miranda is kind and compassionate and worked with great dedication on my divorce case. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

Miranda and her team are AMAZING! She’s honest and direct, and no stone is left unturned when it comes to her team and their attention to detail. My divorce and custody battle has been extremely stressful and downright ugly at times, but having her on my side every step of the way has been invaluable, as is the outcome she helped me to achieve at my recent hearing. She fought for me and my son through every twist and turn and I sleep better at night with Miranda and her legal team on my side! Forever grateful.

Getting advice from Miranda was incredibly helpful. She was very knowledgeable and professional. What felt most helpful was the compassion she showed. I felt like I could trust her because she acted with my families best interest at heart and that felt the most reassuring.

To say that I found Miranda at a very low point would be an understatement. She helped me when I had left my now ex-husband with nothing but our 3 yr old and our stuff. I was a full time college student and could barely afford attorney's fees. She met with me and gave me advice to be able to attend 3 hearings on my own and when I needed full legal representation she was there, no questions asked. She saw how important certain aspects of my parenting plan are and helped me fight for those. No, I didn't get everything I wanted, but realistically you don't in a divorce and no attorney can give you that. What she did give me was peace of mind knowing that my daughters (and mine) best interests are legally binding and my exes actions can be held accountable in the future. A peace of mind if you will. I'm forever grateful for her and her stuff, especially handling a contested divorce during COVID. It was nothing short of a wonderful experience. She was honest and upfront about parts that I knew I couldn't "win" and helped me get the ones that I could. As much as it pains me to know I'll need her services in the future, I'm grateful I've found someone I can trust to not only be there as my lawyer, but as another mom looking out for other moms. Divorce isn't easy, especially a narcissist, but she made it smoother and handled it with grace.

I recommend Baner and Baner for any issue that falls under their areas of expertise. I was represented by Ms. Baner, who was competent, confident, very responsive, and patiently explained all the details with me through the whole process. I also had occasion to consult with Mr. Baner on an issue for which I received timely and helpful consideration.

The attorneys at the Baner and Baner Law Firm offer competent and complete legal services. I recommend their services.

Did not help. Hard get ahold of staff was professional they acted like they cared overall felt the brush off. Would not recommend for collections wasted my valuable time
