Not a good choice for attorney

Sue/office staff likely to sit on very important tasks for months and months despite judges' decrees (eight months in my case for what should have been done in a couple of weeks or less).

Sue Ann helped me work through some very challenging and difficult obstacles that dragged out over a long period of time and resulted in a resolution that exceeded my expectations.

Legal Power House

I have been working with Sue Ann for over 6 years. In each case she has been prompt, intuitive and always represented me with the highest standard. I have seen her perform in court, she is a powerhouse. I have recommended her to others for cases. She is amazing if you are looking for an attorney in N...WA.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
