My name is Wayne, and recently I hired help from the Puget Law Group. We were put in contact with…read moreMr. Nick Andrews. And boy, am I ever glad we got his help! My now wife (then fiance) was charged with her second DUI and facing 90+ days in jail and other horrible consequences. She is a professional, law abiding citizen but, found herself in a bad place due to a couple of honest mistakes and poor choices. We all are only human right? And make mistakes. Her last lawyer (was a paid attorney, fresh out of being court appointed) charged her for his so called 'services'. These 'services', were nothing short of worthless, lies and down right pathetic. He reminded me of a scared puppy dog who had been beaten up by the judge before in the courtroom. He basically told her to prepare for 90 days of jail and threw his hands up. I was ASTONISHED at his lack of help! So, the next day when my wife was at work, I started researching a new lawyer I could surprise my wife with and hire. I found the 'Puget Law Group' and the owner at this firm. He got us linked up with Nick in his office. Fast forward to her sentencing today. We have been trying to stay optimistic about this, but obviously were stressed for over a month and being told by the last lawyer to 'come prepared to do your time, 90 days'. Worried she will lose her job, income to our family and also her mental capacity if having to do 90 days in jail (hell, I'd go nuts myself), we felt confident in Dan Gerl (Owner of the Law Firm) and Mr. Nick Andrews. We prayed all night and did our best to not overreact and stress out. As soon as we arrived at the courthouse, we were greeted by Nick as he smiled and said he had great news for us! Nick had struck a rare deal before we arrived with the DA (basically unheard of) and was able to to get 99% of the mandatory state minimum jail time suspended! He also was able to push this time off until after the holidays, so my wife can now not only keep her job and her sanity, but can spend the holidays with myself and our family! We both couldn't be happier with the outcome! Nick has a demeanor that demands his respect! When he talks, everyone listens! I admired how even the judge's assistant stared at him in amazement as he spoke! The judge also had been edgy in the past, and a little harsh at times in my opinion. However, when Nick spoke, his facial expression showed respect and an eagerness to listen to what he had to say! A true sign of respect! I can honestly say 1000% without doubt, If I ever need a lawyer (let's hope not!) I too will be using Nick. Sharp, well spoken, knowledge of the law and rights, professional and respected. These are words that come to mind about Nick Andrews. If you have the honor of having Nick in your corner, rest assured, you will get the best outcome possible. I can say that WITHOUT a grain of hesitation and put my name on it! THANK YOU NICK! THANK YOU PUGET LAW GROUP! God bless you all. -Wayne

I first used Barbara almost 20 years ago now... She was as dedicated & passionate then as she was just this year when my baby brother found himself in need of her services. Barbara makes herself fully available to you at all times.. something rare in todays day & age. And somehow despite inflation & rising prices on EVERYTHING... Barabara's fee remains incredibly low, nearly the same as it was 20 years ago?! I believe this is because Barbara truly cares for the people she serves & sincerely wants to help .. especially those who need the most help , who many times simply cannot afford the typical $10k+ Most DUI attorneys charge these days !! I cannot express enough my gratitude for her dedication & commitment. She saved my brother from eminent jail time & helped him get his life back on track!! YOU WILL NOT FIND A MORE QUALIFIED & DEDICATED YET AFFORDABLE ATTORNEY ANYWHERE!! Thank you again Barbara!!

I hired Garguile to help me fight a traffic infraction, which I ended up losing and deferring. That…read morepart is fine and my own fault, but this dragged out for months (also fine and not their fault) and there was very little communication from the firm. After the initial court date was set, they also never updated me to get my side of the story. Possibly that's normal as there was nothing I could say to help, but overall I felt like I had to chase down every update from them over the course of about six months. The communication I did get was usually automated and not relevant to me. Only when I called would I get a real explanation of what I needed to do. Each time I called, I had to leave a message with the front desk, wait for a call back, and call back again in a few days to do it again before getting to talk to someone who could help. I also was never provided the proof of my payment to the court, which I had to contact them several times for. If they can get you off a technicality, then this process is probably worth it, but if your case goes beyond that, it felt a little a tiring. They're definitely a high-volume firm and not geared for personal service, and I guess the price reflects that, but know what to expect. All that said, everyone I can into contact with was very friendly and willing to help. They were very pleasant to work with, just wish I didn't have to contact them so much.

Incredible experience with this law firm!…read more I called them with a bunch of questions that had been stressing me out for weeks -- and in just one 30-minute phone call, they answered everything clearly and thoroughly.

I am thoroughly disgusted with Attorney Chi Nguyen's lack of professionalism and communication…read more I found her through Yelp in July 2025 with glowing reviews. After a July 4th consultation, I hired her to handle my parenting plan matter (not my protection order, though she gave advice on that too). What followed was one of the worst professional experiences I've ever had. Here are the main issues: Never in court - She never once appeared in person, only via Zoom. We paid her the same as anyone else, yet she didn't show up physically. Unprofessional appearance - On Zoom, she dressed in casual T-shirts, not courtroom-appropriate attire. Paralegal overseas - The paralegal assigned to our case (Bernard) was working permanently out of the country. This made direct communication about our case nearly impossible. Bad legal advice & dishonesty - She advised my child to drop a protection order to "help" with a 50/50 parenting plan, then denied ever giving that advice in court. This damaged our case. Unprepared in court - Judges were visibly frustrated with her lack of preparation and awareness of required next steps. Communication failures - She ignored the client portal (where we receive notifications) and instead sent critical updates by regular email, which caused us to miss deadlines and hearings. Documents were submitted incorrectly and late, resulting in continuances, sanctions, and extra costs we had to pay ($700). Recent failure - For a GAL hearing, financial documents we sent in late August were submitted at the last minute. She failed to consult us on which GAL we preferred, leaving us blindsided in court. We left court feeling defeated every single time. Yesterday's hearing was the final straw--we fired her immediately. Hiring an attorney is stressful enough; you need someone professional, prepared, and communicative. Chi Nguyen was none of these. Do not hire her. I only gave 1 star because Yelp wouldn't let me submit my review without doing it.

He then states, "I guess this ends our working relationship, idk who else you'll complain to" I'm not sure why Lance felt comfortable enough to speak to me in this manner but I don't appreciate it and I would advise against hiring someone who is rude for no apparent reason. Do better, be kinder. *I would like to note this was a DV case*

I took up a lawsuit at a DSHS facility regarding contaminated water from the original plaintiff who…read morehad died at that facility. I filed numerous motions in response to the defendant's briefs. Over the course of nearly five years I fought the state representing the facility and those in charge. The case was dismissed in District Court, I appealed to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeal and prevailed. The District Court granted my motion for appointment of counsel due to the fact that there were 216 plaintiffs and I could not represent them as a pro se litigant. The Hester Law Group volunteered to take the case and worked on our behalf for several more years. During that time I assisted whenever I could. I often mentioned to the attorneys at the Hester Law Group that as the named plaintiff and due to my years of work on this case, that if there was a monetary judgement in our favor, I requested that I receive one dollar, ($1), more than anyone else on this lawsuit. The case was eventually settled for $7.5 million. Hester Law Group received about $2.7 million and the rest was to be distributed among the remaining 206 plaintiffs. In the end, some plaintiffs received a third more than I was awarded and all they did was sign their name to the lawsuit. I devoted hundreds of hours on this case and spent money I could not afford to move it forward. Despite my often voiced request for $1 more than whomever received the most from the settlement, I ended up receiving less than most. Even though we were locked into a settlement formula by the state, the Hester Law Group could have easily dipped into their $2.7 million to address my reasonable request and could have found a way to compensate me as the named plaintiff for the years of work equal to the highest paid plaintiff. There would not have been a lawsuit or settlement without me. I feel that their response or lack thereof speak volumes to their integrity. I would not retain anyone evolved with the Hester Law Group if money is involved.
