Complicated Divorce

Hiring Julie Park as my attorney was one of the best decisions I made during one of the toughest times of my life. Julie's straightforward, no-nonsense approach kept me focused during a very complicated divorce, from parenting issues to complex financial issues as well. Julie is prompt at returning... emails, calls, and was very thorough and efficient in every aspect of my case. She has a very sharp mind when it comes to finances, helping me wrap my head around things I was almost too overwhelmed to confront during such a difficult time. We ended up settling my case with an outcome I was very satisfied with. I'm grateful and couldn't recommend her enough!

Julie Park is an excellent attorney

I highly recommend Julie Park to anyone who is faced with a divorce. She is extremely smart and highly capable. In my situation, things were very emotionally charged and I struggled to maintain my composure while my family and assets were split apart. Julie's vast experience and deep understanding... of the law provided the protections I needed to close this chapter of my life and move on.

Excellent and professional

I hired Julie to take on my case after my original attorney suddenly passed away. I was about 6 months into the action and left with a pending court date and a potentially lost opportunity to positively resolve my action. Julie jumped immediately into action. She will drive you to help yourself if ne...cessary and also save you some money, be prepared and listen to her. She will explain why, what and when very clearly. My situation was a bit unique. She pursued, at my request, a summary judgement which is not always easy or the normal proceeding but her knowledge and experience said this course was worth pursuing. It was very inspiring to watch her work and follow her knowledge of law. She really does listen to you and will advise you on how to proceed. She is Very good and Very knowledgeable at her profession. I cannot say enough about her ethics. Win or lose I knew I had one of the best in my corner. It is in your best interest to at the very least, interview her for representation of your particular situation. Hiring Julie was one of the best decisions I have ever made.

Highly Recommend Julie Park

If you ever find yourself facing any legal family issues, I would highly recommend hiring Julie Park. No one ever wants to be a party to divorce, as it can be a very overwhelming experience. Julie is not only experienced in all aspects of family law but her calm demeanor helps to alleviate the stre...ssful situation. I hired Julie for what was supposed to be an easy and amicable divorce; unfortunately there were some unexpected obstacles that arose. Julie not only handled each situation with expertise and respect for all parties but she also kept me informed of each phase of the process and made me aware of potential outcomes. Julie knows how to get results in a sound and ethical manner without jeopardizing the integrity of the profession. I also cannot stress enough how she makes herself available to her clients, whether it be email or telephone, I always knew that she would be prompt in responding to any and all of my concerns. I should also note that my ex had hired an attorney from a large swanky downtown Seattle law firm. This may have intimidated some solo practitioners but Julie was unfazed by opposing counsel and the end result was a fair and reasonable resolution.

Professional

I would strongly recommend Julie S. Park for anybody who has the misfortune of experiencing the ordeal of divorce, or for anybody who finds themselves considering a divorce. Julie was my lawyer throughout my divorce. Her knowledge of Family Law was exceptional. My divorce included many details that ...are normally not a part of a divorce case, however Julie was knowledgeable and could assist me. The best interest of my children was always considered. She was very responsive to my communications, she kept me informed with what was going on in my case, she would always ask how I felt about the direction we were going to take as we proceeded. She always explained the risks and uncertainties. Her paperwork was complete, well-organized. I always felt very comfortable and at peace throughout the entire process.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Julie is whip smart and well-prepared. I first met Julie as she presented family law content in a seminar for lawyers who practice in different areas of law. It was clear that she was compassionate, knowledgeable, and creative in solving the unique and complex problems that arise in the family law context. Since that day, I have referred many clients to Julie for assistance in family law matters. This area of practice is fraught with stress, conflict, and high emotion. She maneuvers clients through with grace and skill and manages to be both comforting and straightforward. I have consistently received strong reviews from those who have used Julie for family law matters, and I always look forward to collaborating with her when our areas of practice intersect. You can't go wrong in hiring Julie."
