She told me she would contact me in a day or two, but instead she decided to break the confidentiality agreement that I was supposed to be protected under and contacted the other parties attorney and disclosed my name and intentions for taking the case to court because of signatures being forged, signed off by the other attorney (she admitted that she knew of him in the initial consultation, but I didn't know she was going to overlook the law protecting the lawyer/client confidentiality agreement in the process). It's definitely connecting dots between attorneys and the county clerks who are swindling so many people. Be careful with the attorney you are dealing with giving your information to.

Yesterday, Russell Mikow heard a case that I am disputing with the WA State Employment Security…read moreDepartment, and he acted as an arbitrar/judge in this dispute with the Office of Administrative Hearings. As of today, he has not produced a decision in this matter. Therefore, I believe that my opinion of his conduct is valid today and up until he produces a decision, whereupon I could be accused of retaliating against him because I didn't like his decision. Therefore, I undertake this writing today, when it is more clearly established that this is just an honest reflection of my professional experience with Russell Mikow, his performance as a juror, his focus of relevant legal matters, his conduct in a hearing/court room setting, his professional manner, and his general sense of decency and humanness. Maybe he was having a bad day, and I accept that yesterday was but a limited, two-hour window into how he conducts himself. Having said that, I felt that Mikow was very much unfair, clearly quite biased, legally misguided, repeatedly rude and abusive, fundamentally dishonest, and paralytically stubborn even when he is shown to be wrong. He repeatedly lashed out at me, raising his voice, even though all I was doing was pointing out that he was factually wrong. At one point I even had to ask him to not be so mad. It was as if the man just could not accept any logic that might disturb his pre-ordained idea: socialism is good, and small businesses are evil. At issue was whether a given employee should have received unemployment benefits. The answer was obviously "no" because the employee himself elected to quit certain shifts because he was getting windfalls of Covid stimulus cash. But WA State ESD was convulsed, and amidst wrongly awarding tens of billions of state tax dollars to frauds, they included my fraudulent employee - despite the fact that we were offering him shifts, on record, through this period. The whole point of the hearing yesterday was to review evidence, including multiple written emails, proving that we were offering the employee more shifts. Mikow dismissed all of my evidence despite the fact that he himself determined that it was fundamentally relevant by virtue of the dates involved, as well as by the nature of the documents. This was a Twilight Zone experience. I have participated in a lot of these hearings, and never have I seen an arbitar dismiss half of all evidence in an instant without any discussion. But they only way that Mikow could do this was by literally mischaracterizing the evidence; ie: lying. The only way that Mikow could conduct his biased, liberal politics was to lie. In fairness, the first time it may not have been a lie. But after I repeatedly corrected him, so that he should know better - then at that point, this was willful deception; ie: Mikow was lying. The good news about Mikows lies are that it is all on record. He lied, repeatedly, on the record, so it's there if we ever have accountability in this state. I will be writing the Governor's Office, ESD, OAH, WSFE, the Insurance Commission, the WA State Bar Association - basically every WA State entity that had a hand in putting Mikow in the position to launch his misguided political objectives to advance socialism and demolish small businesses - and I will also be contacting any media that might care about the dishonesty exhibited by the State of WA through Mikow.

There were three very undesirable exchanges that I experienced with this attorney over an extended…read moreperiod of time. Since I had no investment in how a case was going to turn out and I was not even a defendant, the entire ordeal was disturbing to say the least. Repeatedly, I found him with an incredibly bad attitude, exacerbated with a grating tone, as well as a stated bias from first call throughout the entire ordeal. As always, you are the best judge of who you look to for fair, honest advice and service. Try as I might, there ended up being no way I could find to have this person deal with facts, statistics and indisputable proof. Incredibly unfortunate. The above is based solely on my opinions, after decades of experience.

Attorney Austin Theis and Paralegal Chelsea Hammer of Gravis LLP are great! !!…read moreWith her the quality of honesty and trustworthiness ,high IQ, profound knowledge, rigorous logic, strong sense of responsibility, outstanding eloquence, quick thinking, and quick response, Attorney Austin Theis won me a victory in an extremely complicated divorce case!! Highly recommend Austin Theis attorneys to anyone who needs help with a complex divorce proceeding!!! I was the defendant in the divorce case, which was an extremely complicated case, so that , highly recommended by another distinguished attorney,I got in touch with Austin Theis at Gravis Law Offices on the recommendation of a paid attorney who was willing to consult with me one-on-one. Before the meeting, I checked the information of lawyer Austin Theis on the google , and learned that she is a doctor of law and has always achieved excellent results in major debate competitions. During the first meeting and consultation, attorney Austin Theis asked me many key points and details, and recorded them one by one before checking with me. In the follow-up cooperation, attorney Austin Theis and her assistant Chelsea Hammer always responded to emails quickly, answered calls in a timely manner, and actively checked the details with me. When I contact Austin's lawyer on weekends, she will also reply to the email ; sometimes I don't reply in time, and she will take the initiative to ask, with a gentle and caring attitude. I have a very hard case which was too complicated and all sides were against me. So after attorney Austin Thesi took my case, I just thought it was better to have a lawyer than no lawyer. But at the hearing, attorney Austin Theis won a comprehensive victory for me! And it won two victories! (Because the plaintiff initiated a new round of request to the court), so Attorney Austin Theis won again! ! ! I found that she knew every detail of my case. She told the judge in a confident, gentle, rational and calm manner. She was logical and well-founded. She is logical, calm, composed, and argumentative, quick-witted in court, aggressive yet restrained and compassionate. I found out she wasn't reading the notes when she was debating, but all the details were in her head，it can be seen how familiar she is with my case and details. Great Austin Theis! Thank you for choosing to help me when everyone else gave me up! !! I am deeply grateful to you! You make me believe that the law is fair and just!

I was referred to this office, what a big mistake, I needed help fast for my special needs child…read moreand so I went here. My first gut instinct was when they asked for paperwork from me that they already had from day one, they were slow to get information on anything and even when the other party lied to them and they knew it, nothing was done. I ended up with a bill for over $10,000 and didn't even go to court or get my case finished and now I'm worse off then I was before I hired them.

Hugh McGavick was exactly who I needed for my case. I had an employment related legal situation,…read morewhere my employer changed what we had originally agreed to for my retention. Originally, a bonus for my retention through a specific date was agreed to. Upon my last day, they sent a separation agreement that did not include this bonus, and even included wording that if I sign the separation agreement, I would be waiving all claims, obligations, etc. with the company, and it even specifically included bonuses. I obviously was concerned about this, but the company refused to amend the agreement to include the bonus they had already agreed to, and told me they would pay it out after I signed the agreement... an agreement that made them not legally liable to do so. I've never needed legal aid before, so I had no idea where to start, but I was able to find Avvo, which led me to Hugh. After I contacted him, explained the situation, and paid for his services, he went after the company quickly. He made sure to gather from me all the information he needed, and presented the facts to the company in an organized and clear way within one day of payment. , Hugh also cited the laws and governing bodies for Washington they were potentially violating. As I am someone who knows nothing about this sort of thing, it really was helpful to know how employment and wage laws in Washington applied to me and my case. The company wired the bonus quickly after Hugh's involvement, and Hugh is honest with billable hours as well. He sent me an itemized invoice after our business was concluded, that showed how he spent every moment on our case, and even refunded me part of the balance as I had initially paid for more time than was needed. I couldn't be happier with the help I received from Hugh! He is honest, worked hard for my case, kept the pressure on the company, and made sure I was satisfied with the results before considering his job done.

Ed was thorough in giving us insights, possible strategies to use, and an overview of what to expect moving forward. We feel his insights and advice have greatly strengthened our case.

If we need to hire an attorney at some point, Ed's the one we'll go with.

It took me a few years because I felt humiliated & angry that I just want to forget what happened to me but I always thought about it. So here is my review. I would never signed up with this law firm if I only knew the way they mishandled my case. When it was time to show up in the courthouse, I was met by another attorney that I never met before. The attorney at that time never gave me the reason why Greg Rhodes did not attend that day. I was confused & shocked. That attorney never even say a word in my behalf during the court proceeding. That attorney just asked me if I want to appeal the judge's decision against my case. I just said NO and left. I spent thousands of dollars with Greg Rhodes and felt that Greg just took advantaged of me. I will advise everyone to look for another attorneys to hire if they want a good and honest legal representation. I hope this review is useful to you.
