"I endorse this lawyer. Lara cares about the integrity of this profession. She is an attorney, who advocates for her clients while also maintaining solid working relationships with her attorney colleagues that may end up representing the adverse party. She pursues her clients’ causes; yet she also sees the value in negotiating settlements in a no nonsense sort of way. She is approachable and knowledgeable. It is obvious she cares about her work and helping her clients."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Ms. Dethlefs was a pleasure to work with on a recent dissolution matter. She was professional and cooperative while still being a fierce advocate for her client. Ms. Dethlefs is a lawyer I hope to have as opposing counsel again as she made the sometimes difficult job as a family law attorney enjoyable."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"As an active family law practitioner and a Judge Pro Tem, I have the opportunity to interact with most family law attorneys in Snohomish County. Some recent cases with Ms. Dethlefs have convinced me she is extremely competent, a zealous advocate for her clients but, perhpas most importantly, gives them realistic advice. She is a worthy and capable opponent."
