My Hero

Over the years, Barry has saved me from real estate related mistakes, as well as, intervening in a potential residential soil contamination issue. He also successfully intervened in a dispute with a medical entity. Aside from coming to my rescue under extreme circumstances, he did a great job with my... will and other important documents like Power of Atty, Directive to Physician, etc. I am so comforted to know that Barry and his team (especially Susan) are always there for me!!

No one better than Barry!

I have been seeking Barry Kombol's advice on several issues regarding land development for the past two years. He has been outstanding in his knowledge and his ability to quickly understand exactly what I needed. The short response time was surprising considering his full schedule, and this was cri...tical to our success. I am treated with respect and professionalism by both him and his assistants and I recommend him above all others. Barry Kombol is a "Comrade in Arms". Ronda

Seamless home purchase closing

Barry, helped me with the purchase and close of an investment property. He was professional, responsive, and always had my best interests in focus. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a great lawyer with tons of experience.

Knowledgeable, trustworthy, and caring attorney who listens

Nobody wants to be involved in a possible legal battle, but events often occur in life that can’t be handled without professional advice. We are involved in a boundary dispute, which is not a good way to meet your neighbors. Barry advised us that boundary disputes can be very costly liti...gation, and ultimately can create disharmony among neighbors that last for years. So once we collected all the facts and supporting documentation, such as surveys, legal descriptions, and property history, Barry reviewed the various options associated with these matters. Barry not only has knowledge and experience in property issues, but he specifically understands waterfront boundary issues. As we were discovering all the facts associated with our dispute, there was a lot of ongoing correspondence with our neighbors. Barry guided us through this correspondence, and we appreciated his willingness to accept our input. This made our responses to the other party’s correspondence always a letter that represented the best of the legal and our personal opinions. Finally, we learned a lot through this process, and although it’s not over, we are still able to talk civilly to our neighbors and hope that the issue may be resolved without actual lawsuits and more expensive means. It’s important to find an attorney who has experience in your legal area of concern and also in the local area involved. Barry has a long history in working with both King County and Pierce County, and most particularly in the Black Diamond, Maple Valley, Kent, and Covington areas. Barry Kombol has done legal work for our family for over 30 years including estate planning and wills, guardianship, and property matters and always gives us his best. We have found him to be very honest and trustworthy. Barry Kombol will go out of his way to do a good job for you.
