Great to work with--- sharp as a tack

I had an eviction nightmare , and Katy worked with me every step of the way!! I asked a lot of questions, and she was patent with me through the process. I could not have navigated the legal process without her , and she gets my highest recommendation ---for the most part , i do not like lawyers ..., I like her!!!! Richard S.

Eviction Done Right thanks to Katy Archer

Unfortunately we had to deal with an eviction while on vacation and thankfully Katy handled it for us swiftly and efficiently...and at a very reasonable cost! She knows the process well and communicated with us throughout even after the Judgement and Writ of Restitution. We're also a little more k...nowledgable on the process thanks to her explanations... Would hire again and recommend her in an instant!

Incrediable Lawyer

I cannot say enough about Katy's service, she is very personable and thorough, making sure I new exactly what she was doing, explaining in layman's terms to make sure I understood. Katy has handled many things for me over the years, most recently she sorted out all the necessary paper work for a s...ale of property that I had done on a handshake. Katy put together a contract satisfying to both parties and filing with the proper agencies as needed. Katy also handled my wife's probate through trying times, did all the legal filings. Katy is knowledgeable and very prompt, an excellent Lawyer who I feel I can return to in the future with full confidence. Thank you Katy for all your hard work

Awesome Service

Katy is the best attorney I've ever used for Landlord-tenant issues and evictions. She knows her stuff, and if she doesn't know it when you ask the question she will research it and get back with you. There is no one else I would use in Skamania County.
