From day one when Jack sat me down and started to review my case he was upfront and never sugar coated what could happen in my case. After tremendous amount of anxiety I decided to file divorce. Jack and his team jumped right in and guided me to what needed to be done. Over the course of the 14 months my case took to settle Jack and his team were always their to answer questions, be there for emotional support and fight the good fight. They always kept me well informed and always involved me in every decision while always looking out for my girls and my best interest. The outcome of my case was the best with me receiving full custody of my beautiful daughters and no spousal support. Which is super rare in the state of Washington for a father. From Robyn to Lori to Josh I couldn't feel there is a better team I could of have. In fact to the point I feel like they are family! If you are looking for the best, well Jack Berner and his team is it! Thank you Jack, Josh, Robyn, and Lori! I am eternally grateful to you!

One of my goals was that my former spouse and I could come to an agreement ourselves, without fighting it out in the courts. The divorce docs Ryan drafted addressed custody and dividing our property in a way that was thoughtful, fair, and reasonable enough for my ex to agree to sign them. Ryan went to 2 hearings in my place and ended up getting the judge to sign off on all of the divorce paperwork that my ex and I had agreed on. I can't imagine trying to wade through the whole legal process alone, especially with all of the other stresses during a divorce. Highly recommend this lawyer.

In September 2022, I hired Steven J Fields to represent me in a difficult divorce. His hourly rate…read morewas $600 per hour, and the consultation fee is $600 per hour. I placed my trust in him and his paralegal. I began to wonder if I should in November 2022. In our first hearing - he did not file for child support properly; The Commissioner pointed it out. Steve told me later that he had always done it that way. Implying the commissioner was wrong. So, I asked when he would file again. Keep in mind. He knew my wife had left the family, I was working and raising 3 kids by myself. She was providing zero help. His response? 'you can't just file a motion for child support, it takes time and money.' Then later he told me that the reason he didn't file the initial motion correctly is that I was in a hurry, and he was trying to help me. So, our motion hearing March 2, 2023. Opposing counsel pointed out that Steve had not filed my financial declaration. Steve insisted that he had, that he had a receipt. But lo and behold, they were filled March 8th - 6 days after the hearing!!!! The hearing on March 22, 2023, did lead to an order for child support by my wife. There were several mistakes. He did not like being called out on them. In fact, when I asked why he had a hearing with my wife's lawyer to reschedule the trial he told me I was a difficult client. That his paralegal had asked him several times to fire me because I caused too much stress. When I was given my files - other client's information was mixed throughout. I am letting them know. When I asked for copies of emails Mr. Fields sent opposing counsel as I am now Pro Se (after Steve knew I was out of money he withdrew as my lawyer.) he told me he owns them - and would not provide them to me. I was billed over $30,000 by Mr. Fields and we had not gotten to mediation! I had asked him how much he felt I would need to have available to get through trial. I asked his paralegal several times for him to call me. I never received a response. Oh - my wife was directed to provide release of records. Steve and his paralegal decided to draft them. One big mistake - they had an incorrect birthdate, so I was charged several hundred dollars for records that came back with nothing. He told me that the birthdate issue was my wife's lawyers. No Steve - you included the originals with the wrong birthdate sent by your paralegal. I have them with your paralegals handwriting! There is so much more, and I am preparing a filing with the Washington State Bar Association. He knows. He didn't seem to care. Someone wrote that anyone looking should look elsewhere. I wish now that I had. Steve and his paralegal did a terrible job representing me and my children and he gave me the records to prove it. Steve did not prepare me for what to expect - wife filed for reconsideration and Steve was indignant when I asked him to explain if she could do that. Same when she filed a counter motion against my motion for child support. I never felt that he communicated with me as to what to expect.

Steve is the best, most knowledgeable attorney with whom I have ever worked and it's not even a close comparison. His logical reasoning was on point, his answers to questions were concise and helpful. I appreciated his efficient and effective work after he carefully listened to me and then reviewed the thousands of pages/documents in my case. He, and his paralegal Tasha, quite literally "saved the day". I could not have picked a better attorney and I was so thankful to have them represent me. I am in their debt forever.

Very Disappointed!!!! Going through a divorce is not easy…read moreand you expect to have a support from your lawyer. My lawyer Allen Dermody just went out on medical leave and guess what???? I found this out only after he left for medical leaving and I was totally abandoned by this firm! I paid 10k for my process that is still with them , but Chad and Les that should be taking care of my case, just don't care!!! If they are going to charge $300 per hour to ready and charge all the emails that I am sending asking to please reply to answer my questions, and also the numerous phone calls that Ieft with VM.... it will be terrible. They just want your money because you have 0 help. No sympathy from them. The reception woman called Sabrina is just too rude! I told it was an emergency and to her ask Les for the 2 time to make sure he calls me, and she told me that he has a client and would return my call maybe in 24hrs! THIS WAS AN EMERGENCY!!!! And if it was going to count 24 hours for a reply, I was in advantage, because I sent an email to Les with questions a week ago and NOTHING!!! They have my 10k for the deposit, but they are not helping me at all after Allen left and did even had the courtesy to notify me! Also tho this Sabrina! For someone that paid 10k for a service, I am pretty sure I am a client. Run from this place! They are so bad that I can even tell that the attorney from my ex is WAY BETTER!!!!! Run!!!!! Don't waste your money here!

The person that took my call shared that Ms. Mcllwain would only have an initial call with me for $100, would need a $5,000 retainer for any follow-up and charge $300 an hour for time beyond the initial consultation. The call was strictly financial focused. My objective for an initial call was to validate if Ms. Mcllwain had the background to meet my needs, was interested in my case and to see if we were compatible. Ms. Mcllwain also reached out to me in a follow-up email stating that she needed to be paid even if we have a "meet and greet". I have worked with multiple attorneys and have never experienced such a money first approach. Other attorneys I have worked with have instilled confidence that they had a fiduciary duty to act for the benefit of their client.

They almost always responded to my questions immediately, which is incredibly rare and gave me great confidence throughout the entire process. I also appreciated their honesty and integrity. They gave me a realistic assessment of the merits of my case instead of simply telling me what I wanted to hear or taking the case just for profit. Their advice was thoughtful, transparent, and always in my best interest. Despite taking on my case at very short notice, they handled everything professionally and did an excellent job. The entire team worked seamlessly together and made what could have been a very stressful situation much easier. A special thank you to Ian, Tommy, Cynthia, and Mark. From the legal assistants to the paralegal and attorneys, everyone was knowledgeable, responsive, compassionate, and genuinely committed to helping. Their teamwork and dedication exceeded my expectations. If you're looking for a law firm that is responsive, honest, and truly cares about its clients, I would not hesitate to recommend this team.

Mr. Savage was able to quickly pick up my case when my former firm/attorney retired from family law. He acted with urgency, making time to review all previous materials and correspondences, to meet with me to understand my goals, and clearly communicated next steps and timeline. It is clear to me that Mr. Savage is very comfortable and knowledgeable when it comes to family law. He was able to catch small things that my previous attorney missed or actions the former firm had taken that were no longer the standard. This keen eye for detail made all the difference in my case and we were able to get a parenting plan in place, despite a lack of cooperation from the respondent, during our first hearing. Mr. Savage was incredibly responsive and even caught an after-hours declaration the respondent emailed hours before the hearing. He notified me right away and advised me of the next probable steps, eliminating concerns I had over the last-minute response. I was also impressed with Mr. Savage's integrity; for example he informed the commissioner of the respondent's declaration despite its untimely arrival and the respondent failing to appear at the hearing. My overall experience was 5 gold stars! Huge thank you to Mr. Savage and team.
