Russ Hermes resolved my case in six months to my satisfaction after my first lawyer failed to close my case after two years. His firm was able to handle my case remotely which was also important to me. I do not live in the area and after an initial face-to-face meeting, all matters were handled by email, phone or paper mail.

If you have other options, I do not recommend choosing this law firm. The final bill I received was…read morefar higher than the initial quote I received. First one lawyer/admin/paralegal took my call and gave me an estimate. Then she scheduled a 2 hour call with another lawyer in the firm. By the end of the 2 hour call, the new lawyer then gave me another estimate to finish the project that was way higher than the initial quote but I feel obligated to continue with them because of the 2 hour ($600+) sunk cost. What was more unacceptable was that the lawyer's response was not timely. Sometimes she didn't respond for 4 or 5 days after multiple follow up emails. And she claimed that she didn't receive the final signed document from the opposing lawyer due to email server issue (which I received through regular consumer Gmail account). I am not sure if she is telling the truth. If she is, I wouldn't want to work with a firm that has unstable email servers that may miss important legal emails.

Amanda soon started selling and cooking hard drugs at my house and I am very lucky I didn't get in trouble with her crimes. I have never used drugs ever. It took Mr Trickler 7 long months to evict her but that is because of the Washington State laws that protect squatters. Amanda is the worst squatter that has ever lived.

Don't understand the low stars for this firm…read more Cory Rein is an excellent attorney. He is handling a family member's case. He was referred to us with the recommendation that Cory does not overload himself with cases, he prefers to dig in and get to know his clients cases thoroughly, completely. I have to say that so far--that is exactly what is happening. Cory is incredible, and so is his gifted Paralegal Jill Jenkins (Hi Jill!). Jill is Very responsive. Both of them are very organized. In court, I have never seen an attorney more prepared. He had a binder with tabs to cover any single thing that opposing counsel mentioned, no fumbling or looking for things, no ahhs or umms. He is VERY prepared in court. It's obvious he is totally at home speaking in court, he's a very experienced and effective litigator. No BS, no wasted words, and Cory *completely* out-lawyered opposing counsel at every turn--so far. If you have a case unlikely to settle, Cory is the type of attorney you dream of finding. Thank God we were referred to him, and he agreed to take the case. Cory is our third and last attorney, we have an extremely high-conflict case, and he's managing it with ease, whereas the last one absolutely could not deal, even after being warned. Cory is unrattled, has no problem calling things out, being an aggressive advocate when warranted, firing off a letter in 15 minutes getting action(!), and gently pulling back when it's not in the case's best interest. Jill has a great sense of humor about it all, so refreshing. Jill also writes very powerful Declarations out of "word salad," so gifted. The best part about Cory is he literally takes the Reins (pun intended) and takes action, he plans for all outcomes, and he is not afraid to use the law and courts, none of this "lets not rattle the cage" bs. --Yes, please, I want to rattle the cage, I'm sick of being nice, I'm done *taking it* and I'm ready to dish it out.-- Cory is your man. He is several steps ahead, bringing forward strategies and motions while we are still processing what just happened--Cory is halfway to the next goalpost. He has really really great timing, and so far, has not missed a single trick. ;-) We have an ongoing case so I can't elaborate on specifics.

Review: Mr. Helms is a perfect example of why the general public hold lawyers in such low regard…read more As a landlord, I hired him several months ago to evict a violent, mentally unstable tenant; there were multiple major violations of the written month-to-month lease. He had delayed filing and serving the necessary pleadings, refused to respond to my many calls and emails, and repeatedly (3 times this month alone) cancelled scheduled phone appointments due to an unexplained "emergency". He has violated Washington's Rules of Professional Conduct regarding providing diligent, competent services as well as keeping his client(me) reasonable informed as to the status of the case and failing to communicate in a timely manner. He has not adequately shown how my money has been spent. Although working for another entity (the Carson Law Group), obviously no one oversees his work. I fired Mr. Helms and filed a complaint with the Bar Assn. A malpractice claim is being considered.
