    Waste of time and money! Extremely overpriced! $130/hour. Don't waste your money.

    Researching divorce attorneys in the Bellingham area for my sister and gave Roy a call. We talked…read morefor a few minutes letting him know it was not a contested divorce and both parties were in agreement. He also mentioned he could go to court if need be. Then made it seem as if he could review all her paperwork so she could finally file. So we decided to do the 2 hour consultation which wasn't even two hours. Roy wasted our time and money. He used bait and switch telling me he'd go to court if necessary then telling my sister he doesn't go to court anymore. Also we told him some of the respondents income paperwork wasn't completed and should hold off on the consultation but he insisted on my sister coming in only to say he couldn't do anything because of the missing income declaration. Please do yourself a favor and don't throw your money away by going to Roy!

    I scheduled a consultation appointment with a goal of getting a prenup drafted. After prepaying a…read morehefty upfront fee, Mr. Martin wasted my time by refusing to look at draft I put together that outlined my goals, asked me unrelated questions, wouldn't let me talk, then told me he would not draft up the document unless I agreed to have my fiance use an attorney in his network to review it with her. I told him my fiance would use her own attorney and then showed me the door! I told him I wanted my deposit back and he threatened to sue me if I canceled the check. Unbelievable. Do not use this attorney for any legal work. If you do, you will be sorry.

When we had a client that was in dispute, he navigated through it all and helped us overcome the whole ordeal. I highly recommend him for all his hard work. He puts his clients needs first.

    Within the first two weeks of having hired this Law Firm, it was apparent that Michael Kleps had…read moredifficulty answering questions but said he could help me right away if I paid an additional 20%. Which I did. But I would email questions and not get answers and have to resend the same question and get charged again. At a time when the only reason I'm seeking their assistance is due to the death of a loved one, I expected there to be at least some kindness and helpfulness extended. There never was. I would email the same question two and three times and never get an answer, but always got corresponding charges. I started looking my questions up on the internet. Things we're at a stand still for a while, as I sold property and then needed Michael's help to finish up. Again, he would not answer questions I emailed and I even remembered asking him those questions a year earlier when this first began. He complained that my bill was high because of my constant emails. I advised him that the emails were repetitive questions. I couldn't believe that he wasn't aware of this, but now I'm certain that he was very aware of what he was doing. He was nickel-and-diming the estate and finally I had to speak with his Superior who at first refused to speak with me. When I sent him an email expressing my displeasure that he even refused to speak with me and that there was no recourse he answered and said, Michael told him that he was able to handle the situation but he knew good and well then that Michael was not handling the situation because I had sent him as a heads-up, particular documents, also complaining that Michael would not answer questions. I had to speak with his boss two times. I ended up paying twice as much as what I read online a probate should cost and we hadn't even gotten into the difficult work, when the costs would really rise. We started working on, what would he called, the Financial Statement, where he refused to include my wages as part of the financial statement. He had assigned a secretary to work with me to try to prove that I was receiving a fair payment for my work but after disbursements were made between beneficiaries, there was no money left to pay my wages. He refused 6 times to include my wages in the financial statement, all the while charging me for this repetitive work of six times, which finally pushed me to firing the law firm of Carmichael Clark. Michael had tried to get me to drop him but since I am out of state, I did not want the difficulty of trying to find another attorney but he forced me into a position of having to fire him, which now I see so clearly why he wanted me to fire him. He never told me that being out of state, I was required to have an agent. He said that I could easily finish it on my own, but Washington law does not allow for that, which I did not know and Michael knew that I did not know that. There is so much more I could say but you get the general idea. I strongly urge anyone to look for other representation. They are only interested in nickel-and-diming the client and not doing any work for it.

At the temporary hearing, Chellie arrived in court to provide great support and helped soothe my daughter's fears at seeing her abuser. Chellie and Josh worked with the opposing attorney to get an order to dismiss the matter. At the hearing, they both came very prepared with orders. The case got dismissed! Josh and Chellie are a fabulous and experienced team. They set our minds at ease and cared for us throughout the whole process. I would definitely recommend them!

Not only did they secure everything I wanted during the settlement conference, but they also skillfully avoided the need for a costly and stressful trial. Their professionalism, expertise, and dedication and hearts of gold made all the difference in my case. I felt supported and confident throughout the entire process. If you are looking for a divorce attorney who will fight for your best interests and save you time and money, Joshua Bruner is the right chose! I honestly never thought that my case would be settled in a settlement conference I thought it was for sure they go to trial. I do not believe any other attorney could've actually made this happen and all they cared about was really what was best for me.. I am so thankful that God brought them into my life. I will be thankful for them every single day because their hard work, caring and dedication literally ensures that my children and I will have a great life. Thank you so much Joshua and Chellie
