    My experience with dore was very disappointing. There was constant inconsistencies with what the…read moreparalegals and the lawyer told me. Also, both of them told me a task would be done within my time working with them and it was not, leading me to be in the dark on whether it's worth it to keep pursuing this case. I raised both issues with the staff and they had no answer, just changed subject. This is not how you treat clients/people in general. However, we were able to do this on a contingency basis so I did not lose money working with them, just time.

    Jim and Kate are my personal Jesus'. About a year ago I found myself particularly screwed, in a…read morevery unique way. I run a small record label and had a storage unit where I store my stock (records, shirts, posters, etc) located in the same building where I live. Another tenant got evicted and had a storage unit next to mine. Well the staff mixed up the units, cleaned out my unit instead, throwing thousands of dollars worth of stock into a dump truck. After much back and forth with the management and quickly realizing they weren't going to do the right thing (even after 100% admitting they were at fault!) I knew I need to seek legal support. Jim was kind, direct, and confident that we would get me compensated in full. And boy did he! They not only got me every cent back in terms of worth of damage, they kept me in the loop as far as progress on the case. And didn't let me settle for less than what I was entitled to. Seriously, I would have been so screwed, so so screwed unless I met Jim and Kate. I will be singing their name to anyone that I know that will need legal help. They are truly the best.

    They have gotten me off of multiple tickets, great people. I would recommend to anyone who needs to…read morefight a ticket.

    Good evening, I hardly write reviews, but after reading so many positive reviews. I've decided to…read moregive Mr. Groover a chance. Mr. Groover would be my second attorney for this citation. In the beginning everything seemed promising and their communication was fantastic compared to my first lawyer where I would not get a response for days and even a whole week. My first lawyer told me he would take care of everything and look into my case. Offered to help with a citation. Come to find out nothing was done and gave some bogus advice stating I can only appeal this citation. I ended driving back to court 10 minutes after he stated that and I recieved another contested hearing for may 12. I decided to look for a new lawyer after filing my grievance with the state bar for his conduct. that's when I decided to look for a new lawyer and came across K. Groover and his reviews. Spoked to Mr. Groover or his assistant, mid April . I Informed him as to what happened to my first attorney which I filed a grievance against for the fact that he stated he would help with the citation, would look into it, ended up he didn't do anything. But still have the nerves to offer his service to help with my insurance claim. 05/08 I got a call while I was at work and was told to either take the plea bargain or Kenneth will not be representing me. Stating with how federal way court works, they had 2 lawyers look at the case they don't want to take on the case. I asked why and their was responses was we don't want to ruin our relation with the prosecutors. Refuse to even take this to trial even after I told them they will be compensated for their time. So far the only thing they did was prolong my court date. Filed a continuance since Mr. Groover was busy with other cases. When it came down to my case, pressuring me to take a plea bargain. Not just once but on multiple occasion. 4 different occasion mentioning and reminding me of the plea bargain. so their way of fighting your citation is Charge 300$ to a client, sit back and hope someone accept the plea bargain and also having them pay the fees of 140$ for the no seat belt violation. That's a win win for both the attorney and the court correct? On to the next client. They are more worried about their relations with the prosecutor. Instead of actually representing their client. What relation are they referring to? Are they just trying to avoid putting this officer on the stand? Now I got an email stating the officer can't attend my new hearing date and it got pushed back to July. Where's the justice in that? If you think this is all about money it is not. I can easily pay off this citation, I'm only fighting this because 1ST, I did nothing wrong and if they want to give me that citation they can give it on record based on hearsay. Nothing on the police report was admissible in court until I see everyone involved testify under oath. The person who cause the accident did not have insurance, nor did she get a citation. The best part is the police report was 1 paragraph long they considered that evidence. At the end of the day I rather pay thousands in legal fees than pay this greedy city. I wonder how serious Mr Groove would take this case If I did offered $1,500. Win or lose I'll happily pay my insurance premiums. 5/11, called today and found out the lawyer withdrew Officer Sales from being subpoenaed. I responded "with why" with no response then Stated prosecutor offered a plea bargain and we don't want to take on this case because we don't want to ruin our relation with the prosecutor. Also stating I won't get my partial refund back unless I sign some paperwork. But all was done was my court date getting prolonged. I told them I'm not signing anything until my new lawyer sees the document they are requiring me to sign before my portion of the payment. 1/3 goes to lawyer fee since they took on my case and filed a continuance. my refund are being held until the paperwork they are requesting are signed.

    I first went to Chi because she was referred to by a friend. However, my experience with her was…read morenot great at all. I contacted her around September to handle my case, and from time to time I asked her for updates in which she gave me very basic information. One day the DOL sends me a notice that my drivers license has been suspended because of failure to notice the court of my options. Mind you, this is something that is completely done by the lawyer. I message Chi, and she started to blame the court about how ridiculous they were, but in reality she should've kept status on my case. It's clear Chi treats each case as a $$ bag and doesn't care to check up on the status of her clients cases. As a result, this lead my insurance going up because Chi was unable to keep up with my case. Why would I go to a lawyer just to have my insurance go up....... and having to deal with that.??? Although she helped me with my ticket It's clear she doesn't value her customers and her replies are just straight up unprofessional at times. I wouldn't recommend her and steer away, there are other lawyers. A

    I am thoroughly disgusted with Attorney Chi Nguyen's lack of professionalism and communication…read more I found her through Yelp in July 2025 with glowing reviews. After a July 4th consultation, I hired her to handle my parenting plan matter (not my protection order, though she gave advice on that too). What followed was one of the worst professional experiences I've ever had. Here are the main issues: Never in court - She never once appeared in person, only via Zoom. We paid her the same as anyone else, yet she didn't show up physically. Unprofessional appearance - On Zoom, she dressed in casual T-shirts, not courtroom-appropriate attire. Paralegal overseas - The paralegal assigned to our case (Bernard) was working permanently out of the country. This made direct communication about our case nearly impossible. Bad legal advice & dishonesty - She advised my child to drop a protection order to "help" with a 50/50 parenting plan, then denied ever giving that advice in court. This damaged our case. Unprepared in court - Judges were visibly frustrated with her lack of preparation and awareness of required next steps. Communication failures - She ignored the client portal (where we receive notifications) and instead sent critical updates by regular email, which caused us to miss deadlines and hearings. Documents were submitted incorrectly and late, resulting in continuances, sanctions, and extra costs we had to pay ($700). Recent failure - For a GAL hearing, financial documents we sent in late August were submitted at the last minute. She failed to consult us on which GAL we preferred, leaving us blindsided in court. We left court feeling defeated every single time. Yesterday's hearing was the final straw--we fired her immediately. Hiring an attorney is stressful enough; you need someone professional, prepared, and communicative. Chi Nguyen was none of these. Do not hire her. I only gave 1 star because Yelp wouldn't let me submit my review without doing it.
