He could have just explained he could not help me and hung up - but I felt he actually cared. I know why there are so many great reviews about this team. Being in an accident can be stressful, having to research an attorney and everything else that comes with an accident adds to the stress. I appreciate Zachs kindness. It made a difference and helped ease my way in a difficult situation. Thank you Zach!

From the very beginning, my experience with Pendergast Law has been outstanding, and a huge part of…read morethat is because of Doug. After being involved in an auto accident, I didn't know exactly what to expect, but the entire team made the process feel organized, professional, and far less overwhelming than I imagined. Doug has been my primary point of contact, and he has been exceptional. Every time I've had a question or concern, he's responded quickly, kept me informed, and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. I never felt like I was just another case. He has always treated me with patience, kindness, and genuine care, and that level of communication has given me a lot of confidence throughout this process. What has impressed me most about Pendergast Law is how client-focused they are. You can tell they have systems in place to keep clients informed, and everyone I've interacted with has been professional, respectful, and easy to work with. During a stressful time, having a team that is responsive and truly advocates for you makes all the difference. If you're looking for a law firm after an auto accident, I highly recommend Pendergast Law. They have built a team that genuinely cares about their clients, and Doug has been an absolute pleasure to work with. I'm incredibly grateful for all of the guidance, communication, and support I've received, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to my family and friends.

Not only did she represent me every step of the way but she went above and beyond in offering sincere compassion to me in my recovery from a terrible motor vehicle accident. I not only consider her a true professional but a trusted friend who will have your back and not let you down. Jennifer's knowledge and experience are I believe truly the best in the field and her practice in the Seattle area is one of the strongest you can find. If you have had a prior negative experience with a lawyer, you can be reassured that your case will be held to the highest standards from start to completion and your concerns treated with the attention that they deserve. I have only words of appreciation for Jennifer and her team and will always be thankful that I somehow found her as a referral from a friend of a friend. You need not look any further in your search for a wise and caring lawyer where you will be treated with respect and kindness. You can place your trust in her and her team and be rest assured that you will have the most knowledgeable advice, ongoing support, and positive outcome as humanly possible.

I was was in an auto collision over four years ago and I quickly learned how helpless one can feel dealing with an insurance company while trying to rehabilitate. After a year and half of frustration I found Jim. It was such a relief. Jim focused first on my injury, making sure I was receiving exceptional medical care and then on my case. He made a frustrating process manageable. He was a pleasure to work with and made me feel like more than a client. The case ultimately ended in court and with Jim fighting on my behalf I ultimately received justice. Though I hope I never need Jim's services again, it's reassuring to know he's there. I can't recommend him more highly.

Over the past 2-3 years they have kept asking questions and delaying the process of finishing this process. I have spent around $400 on emails alone (yes, they charge about $25 per email exchange). They do not respond in any other way except email, and each of those adds up. I regret everything about using this law firm. We are out $11K and have nothing to speak from it. I would sue them but they are a law firm, so I wouldn't expect to win. USE ANY OTHER LAW FIRM is my only advice. To give even more details, they admittedly forgot they were our client about a year after we started. One day my wife and I were like "What happened to our Will and Trust update?". So we contacted Brothers and they legitimately had no idea what we were referencing. I think they charged us another $$ to re-review all of our documents. What I have right now is about a dozen amendments for revisions to our original Will and Trust. Not even an actual Will and Trust, just a "plan" to revise it. If I were to finish it would cost me thousands. But, I have no idea because i cannot get a meeting with them because they are non responsive and when I try to communicate there goes another $25 to Tracy Billington for reading and responding to my email. SMH. Josh, if you are reading this, DO SOMETHING!

Humane Legal Warriors…read more Veronica came billed by her referrals as "a real bulldog" though occasionally hard to reach due to high demand. In consultation she quickly grasped my situation with a few pointed questions. In court, where opposing counsel showboated or exaggerated, Veronica was calm, matter-of-fact, almost conversational. This was unnerving at first, but after our first couple rulings (favorable), I saw the other attorneys' performances as aimed at clients, not the judges. Veronica doesn't perform or exaggerate; She deals in facts that matter to the court, and delivers. When opposing counsel misrepresented events or twisted my statements, Veronica was quick to object sharply. I did not find her hard to reach: She seems to monitor e-mail at all hours, replying on weekends and holidays when necessary. Amy, her Chief Managing Paralegal, is fantastic - Sharp, tough, efficient, quick to recognize strategic value of details, and empathetic when needed (I needed a lot of reassurance). Divorce is awful enough, but the opacity and pace of the legal system is terrifying when family and financial matters seem to hinge on every ruling. Amy did a great job of keeping events in context of the law and our strategy, advising me on what to expect, and preparing me for each next step. She was responsive even when clearly managing a heavy case load. Working closely with her, I found myself fascinated by the process, and as another reviewer relates, at times even enjoying it. Both of them can be abrupt, perhaps an occupational hazard which I found intimidating, but came to recognize as ultimately in my best interest by not wasting time on what wasn't material or legally advantageous. Both could also quickly switch tone when I made clear my nerves were frayed. Their small adjustments and spontaneous offerings of compassionate perspective helped me trust they were honoring their fiduciary role, and actually cared about the outcome for me and my family, not just for their scorecard. As my case unfolded, that trust was rewarded with results. Despite the opposing party hiring a big firm and spending over twice what I paid in legal fees, the court ruled decidedly in my favor at nearly every hearing, and we settled with a very reasonable financial division. Most importantly, what Veronica, Amy, and their team secured for me is beyond valuation: A fair custody arrangement, and the legal protection throughout a very contentious divorce to enable me to live my life and enjoy some of the best family moments I've had in years. I feel unbelievably fortunate to have had Veronica, Amy, and their team represent and guide me through an otherwise very trying ordeal.

I hired Ms. Freitas for a complicated divorce case from a 30-year marriage after seeing positive…read moreGoogle reviews. Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. I later read that she review gates, and from my experience, it appears this may be true. Based on my experience, I would not recommend Ms. Freitas for complex divorce cases. She doesn't listen, is unprepared and sticks to her agenda, not what is best for her client. Her communication was inconsistent. Important emails were not read before calls, and I often received multiple, confusing responses from different team members. I spoke with Veronica twice; the initial consultation 1.5 years before and a useless phone call 2 days prior to mediation where she berated and lectured me instead of discussing my concerns. Veronica's preparation for mediation was lacking. I had to review materials myself with the mediator, as Ms. Freitas had not read the opposing counsel's documents. Billing was unclear and included charges from unidentified staff. When I raised concerns, Veronica became defensive, stating she was cheaper than most attorneys and I should be grateful.
