Excellent Attorney!

Gary is an outstanding attorney and a fine person. He was responsive, supportive and professional in helping me through a divorce. I was confident in how Gary advised me in what my options were in proceeding through my divorce action. I was divorced in 91 days and experienced open communication and i...mmediate responses to emails and phone calls. I appreciated Gary's professional approach and his wealth of knowledge in ensuring I prevailed in a successful outcome in my divorce proceedings. I recommend Gary without hesitation and would add that he shows genuine concern in supporting his clients.

Personal Injury Auto Accident

I was involved in a auto accident and was taken to the hospital with injuries. Because of the injuries to me and the problems I was having with the insurance I thought it would be best to contact an attorney to make sure everything was handled correctly as this was not a minor accident. I had one... of my customers who knew the problems I was having and told me about a attorney in Federal Way named Gary Slater and how he helped him before. I made a appointment with Mr. Slater and that was the best thing I did. My accident involved the other drivers insurance company which he only carried the bare minimum in coverage so my uninsured motorist coverage had to kick in.. Mr. Slater handled everything with my best interest in hand. I was very pleased with how he handled my case and keeping me informed through the whole process. I would highly recommend Mr. Slater for anyone that finds themselves in the same situation as I was in even it is to just check your legal rights .

Dignity and class

Gary helped me through my divorce. It was paramount to me that all proceedings were to be handled with the utmost respect, class and dignity. Which he did beyond my expectations. At the end of the proceedings even the opposition and their attorney recognized Gary's work. I found him to be knowledgabl...e, insightful, pragmatic, and above all, professional.
