Highly recommend

I am a medical provider on the Eastside who is currently undergoing business expansion. Rebecca handled all of my contracts with employees, independent contractors and she negotiated ideal terms for a 10 year lease. She went out of her way to get things done to avoid any delay. This saved me weeks o...f any unnecessary negotiations and I now have my keys to my new space ready for demolition.

Medical Contract

I am a surgical subspecialist on the Eastside and I had Rebecca Penn review my employment contract. She was very knowledgeable in the area of contracts. What was more impressive to me was her ability to explain the contract to me in terms of how it would impact me directly. She offered advice that he...lped me negotiate a contract that best suited my needs. I am grateful for her help and for the peace of mind she provided. Highly recommend.

Highly Recommend

Becky swiftly resolved a commercial contract dispute and achieved early resolution of our case. This helped us avoid a costly drawn out litigation. We would highly recommend her. She has proven to be a reliable attorney that is able to achieve positive results.

Physician noncompete contract

I am a busy physician specialist practicing in a large multispecialty group. I asked Rebecca Penn to review my employment contract including the noncompete agreement which was very difficult to navigate without a legal background. Ms. Penn clearly drew from prior experience negotiating contracts when... she returned an addended contract to me and explained her edits in detail. She pointed out the places where I was left exposed. She offered the right advice addressing my needs and leaving me protected. The result was a great success as the addended contract was accepted. I am grateful to Ms. Penn for her legal expertise and professionalism.
