Highly Recommended for Legal Representation

I had a positive experience working with Ronnie Ray for my legal counsel. From the beginning, he listened to me and was empathetic to my situation. Ronnie was professional, knowledgeable and easy to communicate with. He explained every step of the process clearly and made sure I understood my options.... Ronnie was very responsive to all my questions. No question ever felt rushed or dismissed, and I always felt that my case was being handled with expertise. I would highly recommend Ronnie to anyone looking for reliable and effective legal representation.

One of the best attorneys!!!

Ronnie did an amazing job. From beginning to end he was very transparent from beginning to end on the entire process. His representation was top notch and couldn’t have been happier with the outcome.

A great attorney

Mr. Rae is an exceptional attorney who demonstrated integrity, professionalism, and genuine dedication to my case. Despite my financial struggles, he was willing to work with me by offering a payment plan for his legal fees, understanding that going to trial would have been costly. Through his skill ...and diligence, he was able to get my case dismissed before trial. He was honest, thorough, and unwavering in his advocacy, and his efforts led to my release and the dismissal of my case. I highly recommend Mr. Rae to anyone seeking strong, compassionate, and reliable legal representation.

The best

Hi, I was in a golf cart accident that broke my right ankle. Well, that doesn’t sound like a major deal. I had two major accidents previous to this. I was in a motorcycle wreck which ripped 8 inches of bone out of my left leg and after many years of fighting it, I had to have an amputated. Four years... after that, I was hit by an airplane propeller and broke both my arms and also danger that leg again.With that said I spoke to Ronnie and he got an offer of 20 to 30 K. so I was a mess. With that said I spoke to Ronnie and he offered to take my case. The insurance company offered 20 K and then the 30 K offer for my injury with the diligence. Ronnie spent with my case he ended up getting a full $300,000 award for me which I am eternally grateful. He handled everything very professionally and came to my place since I couldn’t drive in district extra care of me I highly recommend his services. Thanks, Ronnie.

Recommend

Reliable, educational and professional. I appreciate Mr. Ronnie Ray for taking the time to listen none judgmental and build a strategic plan for my case that would help benefit my family and I long term. He also worked well with me financially on payments during hardship of my life and guided me e...xceptionally through task, when I was unable to do so myself. I highly recommend Ronnie Ray ,

Criminal defense lawyer | Aug 24

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Recently, I required the assistance of local counsel here in Wenatchee following the arrest of a family friend. I inquired among my colleagues who suggested that I speak with Washington State lawyer Ronnie Rae. Not one to enjoy asking for assistance when it comes to criminal defense work, I dreaded the thought of reaching out. I can’t help but recall thinking, “it’s just the local rules, I got this… Mr. Rae will let me lead this one.” wrong… The truth is that by the time I stepped in (which was immediately) there was nothing to lead. Lawyer Ronnie Rae’s had this in the bag before I even told him my name. With a few well placed analogies, Mr. Rae educated me on the local law, judicial practices, procedure and even outlined the specific preemptive measures that were not only appropriate but also the recipe called for under the circumstances. “you are going to be a hero to that family…” he said. This lawyer is awesome."
