I've worked with my fair share of lawyers and they are usually disorganized, slow to respond, and nickel and dime you for every word you want changed. I never got that sense with Chris and Sandra, who quickly updated our existing documents, created a trust in a few short weeks, and didn't mind when we rescheduled upteenth times to do the final signings. Super grateful that my daughter will be taken care of if anything happens to my husband and I, and the team at CMS Law Firm for making estate planning seem easy! Highly recommend.

I was so intimidated with the thought of filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy. In my mind I had failed. That thought went away after speaking with Richard himself during my first free consultation. I explained my situation to him and explained that I was at a loss. Richard answered all of my questions and concerns with compassion and understanding. I originally called a different law firm, (because I googled bankruptcy and called the first one that popped up), and something did not feel right with them, it was like a sales call almost... I am so glad I trusted my gut and called Symmes Law Group after seeing their amazing reviews on google and yelp. I highly recommend Symmes Law Group for anyone who might be at a loss like I was and felt like there was nothing else to do with their debt. Thank you again Richard and team from the bottom of my heart for everything!!!

Everyone who works there is thoughtful and compassionate. We ended up with a plan that will most likely avoid probate, but also provides the flexibility to adapt in the event that we are able to grow our estate larger than some of the net worth parameters that we might bump up against in WA state. And they are always there to help if we need further consultation and advice. We also felt that the service they offered was priced competitively.

I believe this was one of the most difficult cases the industry has seen. Without Janet, we would not know where my brother is today. His wife was going to take him out of the country to one with social and "free" medical where she has dual citizenship. My brother who saved a million dollars for his retirement is now reduced to go on State pay medical. Due to his wife gambling ALL the money away. It is important that you have the right representation for your case. Know the RCW Laws for the vulnerable adults and that spouses have a fiduciary duty to their spouse. We are grateful to Janet Smith. Without her help, we would be lost and sad and no know where our brother is. Thank you, Janet. You are our saving grace.

Answer a few standard questions, chat about your impending death, and whammo! You've got yourself a legally binding will, power of attorney, health care advance directive, etc. Betsy also told us everything about death we wouldn't have even known to ask. Plus, she and her husband even come to *your* house for a signing party so you get the documents right away. It wasn't cheap, but check to see if your company has a legal plan (ours paid for almost everything!). But it was thorough, painless, and quick. Just like I hope that impending death of mine will be. (FYI: Betsy knows all the good ways to dispose of your body: cremation, burial at sea, composting, being turned into a tree ...)

For those who lean toward the former approach, Adrienne Keith is a fantastic resource, not only as a lawyer but as a calm, steady person. She works in Collaborative Law as well as mediation, and is active not only in volunteering but also in writing an insightful, funny, sensitive blog about divorce and family law-related topics (http://splitsvillenews.com/). While I didn't technically utilize Collaborative Law (she provides legal divorce services other than just that process), Adrienne was so helpful in carefully walking me through each step of the process, always calm, professional yet warm, and perfectly prepared. I truly appreciated her attitude of non-combativeness and of working to find mutual solutions to sticky issues. Should you find yourself or know someone who's in the situation of needing representation through a divorce or family law issue, do yourself a favor and get in touch with her. Plus, on the way out of the courthouse she handed me a really thick envelope....When I got home, I opened it. A lovely bar, of bittersweet chocolate. What more can a girl want when she gets her old name back?
