Raymond Charles McFarland's Reviews

I first met Ray McFarland when he was recommended by Peter Friedman, an attorney who practiced in the same office. Ten years later Ray McFarland has never let my family down. He has always exsercised honesty,care and wise judgement on all aspects. I understand that attorneys should be professional, but Ray Mcfarland has went above and beyond anything my family could ever ask from him. His service is a rare commodity, one in which I hope everyone will be able to experience. My family would have been lost without Ray McFarland's help.

"I got arrested on a old felony extraditable warrant from the state of Missouri for jumping probation. I was told by officials that I wouldn't be getting out without being extradited. This happened on a Friday. I hired Ray to help me Friday evening. On Saturday morning Ray not only got me out of jail but he contacted Missouri and resolved the old case for me with a few phone calls. I had been worried about that old case for years and was so relieved I found Ray — he was able to make it all go away! I have had a few other problems since then and Ray is always there to help me. He is very dedicated and reliable — he does what he says he will do. He is very diligent and focused and knows how to get things done. I am very glad to have him in my corner.”

I previously served as the President of NAMI Eastside (National Alliance on Mental Illness, Eastside Affiliate, Redmond, Washington) for a period of six years. During that time Ray provided service to NAMI Eastside member families who required a variety of legal services for family members with serious mental illness. In all case, Ray was reported to be highly knowledgeable, responsive and creative in his legal solutions. Ray gets the job done!

I would strongly recommend Ray’s services in cases that have a mental illness component.

Ray helped our son on a several criminal cases, including a serious one, at a time when our son was suffering with serious mental health issues. Ray was able to convince the prosecutor that charges should be reduced and that the cases should be consolidated in mental health court. This turned out to be the best thing for our son under the circumstances - he was able to keep his record clean and received much-needed help and structure in the process.

We are very grateful for Ray’s sensitive and effective work for our son and strongly recommend his services to anyone in need of a criminal defense lawyer.

Our family worked with Ray over one year and would highly recommend him to anyone. He is very skilled and experienced. He was always willing and patient to answer numerous questions and we really appreciated his compassion and understanding during this difficult time.
