Used before and never got a return phone call for more services requested

Jeanine was attentive, detail oriented and hard working in my family law case. I am grateful for all of her hard work with helping me and fighting for my interests.

Leslie represented my wife’s, child’s father in a simple matter of a revised parenting plan as we had moved back to the state of WA. Dealing with her was not only a nightmare, but at times completely comical! Her and her staff don’t even bother to read e-mails let alone review documents I sent to her TWICE! Or, so she claims. My problem is this woman’s character. I question how attorneys sleep at night when they represent people who don’t pay child support ever and abuse women in a variety of ways? But hey, it’s all about the money right?! Clearly, this is Miss Gilbertson’s ONLY objective as neither herself, nor her incompetent paralegal ever review any documents at all. I received paperwork that first time that had the child’s name spelled incorrectly all over the entire document as well as his agent wasn’t even right! I had to correct and send back to her with revisions to come to a full, two party agreement on the parenting plan. Then, she emails me saying one of the forms, the court no longer accepts because there’s a newer version. As a family lawyer, you would think both her and her staff would be knowledgeable about changes with legal docs required to be submitted? Here’s where it gets “fun”. Because this matter was simply a parenting plan revision, my wife and I did not retain an attorney. So Miss Gilbertson used that to try and pull fast ones I believe in opinion several times. When I sent the document back to her two times with the changes, it was filed with the King County court in the ORIGINAL format she had very first sent without revisions and/or agreed upon modifications. I have an e-mail chain of around 50 e-mails to support this. She essentially took the signature pages my wife signed and swapped them to her original proposal. So, without accusing her, that’s either fraud OR utter incompetence by her and her staff to not only not read a document on two adorarte occasions but not review for spelling and other errors and omissions when filing a court document. I filed formal complaints with the WA State bar and AG office as well as the local BBB and will make sure everyone knows about this as she will not admit to answer my question as to wether is was indeed fraud or stupidity? I suppose neither are a good answer but nonetheless one I deserve. I believe the first is the winner as when I called her on this via e-mail, she then began to threaten to use “enforcement” aka calling the police to remove a child from my wife stating the non agreed upon document that was filed was legally binding. I told her that was fraud and I was going to e-mail the judge which I did, then she started back peddling. So, as I can see within the last few years her reviews are awful! Do yourself a favor if you’re looking for an attorney and go elsewhere. Leslie isn’t worth any money what so ever! Blows my mind people who have such little attention to any detail are allowed to even practice law. Just chalk it up to one more joke that is America today! Sleep well at night Leslie... hope that money outweighs the conscious of being a female that represents men who live with their mommies in their 30s and have a history of abuse and lack of support for their own child all documented and ignored by our glorious court system!

Great Law office. Jeanine is the best!

Very good lawyer at this location

I worked with one of their lawyers (senior associate) and was great in the beginning but then joined this firm and got too busy with new clients and I was basically ignored after that. Stopped returning calls and emails. Had to speak to one of the partners (Andre) and got nowhere. 5 months later still trying to get my case resolved and looking for new council. I’d pass and keep looking if you’re reading this review

About 17 years ago Rodi O'Loane represented me in court. She was the very best attorney I could have ever found. Still to this day I remember how much she really helped save my family from so many problems. She won my case and I was given the custodial parenting in my divorce which took over 2 weeks of trial time. She may not even remember me or my little 4-year-old daughter now but my whole family remembers her! Thank you Ms. O'Loane.
