Glen Allen St. Louis

I’m a mother who almost got screwed by an unethical attorney and my former boyfriend last year as I was mourning the loss of a child. I was living in eastern Washington and my ex-boyfriend and his mother went into court in Everett to take my other son from me while I was in the hospital taking care ...of arrangements. When I went to get help no one wanted to help me because the attorney was from a big law firm. I found Mr. St. Louis by an accident and referral and when I was in an emergency, he met with me on a weeknight for 6 hours and charged me for one hour because I was totally broke at that point. He and his staff put a lot of time into my case and talked with others, organized and got all my witnesses together and gathered information on the other side of the state to show the Judge that my son was better off with me. Glen is like the Energizer Bunny when getting something done. Mr. St.Louis got my son back for me in about two weeks and my ex got a big lecture from the Judge for and doing what he did in trying to destroy the mother-child bond. My exes attorney then quit and then my ex went and got another one. I guess he did not get the message the first time. But then when my ex then threatened me with taking the child again, Mr. St. Louis put a stop to it and my ex could not see our son except through supervised visitation. That was round II and you would think the ex would get it. But he didn’t. It took about a year to get the case done and I was very happy with the result and even got attorney fees with interest. Mr. St. Louis’s legal fees were very reasonable. So, I have high regard for Mr. St. Louis’s knowledge of the law and his skill and ability and most of all his energy and dedication to my case even though I did not have a whole lot of money. He did not give up on me. I’m a very grateful mother and very highly recommend the legal services and skill of Glen St. Louis and his firm. Happy Mother from Spokane

I cannot say enough good things about how Glen St.Louis of the Law Office of Glen St.Louis who represented myself and my 4 year old daughter's best interest against a mother who was almost nothing but difficult and misleading every chance she got. Glen took on the difficult challenge with a well thou...ght out strategy so that my daughter is now with me 50% of the time. He's professional in court, and while my ex’s attorney tried to push his buttons, Glen would not bite. He 's very self disciplined. I got the impression the 5 or 6 times we were in court that the Judges and Commissioners respected his presence, preparedness, professionalism, and command of the law. He knew my case backward and forward and was never stumped by the Court's questions, or even the other attorney's attacks. He knew how to use the other side's arguments against them. A couple times he made the other attorney look like a ghost when he was done. An impressive and talented lawyer. I highly recommend his office for family law and other needs and representation. A very Happy Father!

A little over a year ago, I hired Glen St.Louis in Kirkland as my attorney in a complicated intrastate family law and parenting and divorce case in Washington and Tennessee. I was so thankful I hired him. The reason I am writing now is because after we completed the case and I recently picke...d up my file from him that I could reflect on what a truly great attorney he was. He knew what he was doing to address my needs in the case even though I mucked it up. He was referred to me by another attorney who saw me get my butt kicked in court and told me Glen St.Louis was "the Marine" and "lawyer" for me. The attorney who referred me to Glen St.Louis to represent me was so right on the spot. My wife was represented by the big name family law firm M-I, and I was intimidated and overwhelmed. I made some mistakes and really dug myself a hole before I hired Mr. St.Louis. I had no idea how I was going to get out of the situation I created, but Glen did. He sat down with me over two long sessions and after reviewing documents and asked a lot of questions and got a full background. He came up with several strategies that eventually undid the mess I got myself into with only one court hearing. He worked hard on my case and he worked intelligently and with firmness, civility, humility and care and doing what was right for my children. His rates were very reasonable considering what other law firms I talked to charged. He gave me tips on being a better parent and not being a victim of what the larger law firm was trying to do. Glen St.Louis focused on keeping the emotion out of the case and being sure I kept my emotion out of it which is one of the biggest things I learned. We settled the case at mediation and I got a great parenting plan and much better than what the court originally ordered. Glen seems to have a knack for understanding and predicting human behavior and then applying the law in the best interest of my children and the client's needs. While I hope to never have to hire another attorney, if I do, I will have no hesitation to hire his law firm again. Glen St.Louis is the greatest. Semper Fi, by a Happy Trucker Father.

I was referred to Glen St.Louis over a difficult custody situation I was having with my ex-girlfriend who got involved with another guy and was refusing to let me see our daughter and then letting her boyfriend interfere. This was a very emotional issue for me and I was making mistakes trying to re...present myself until Glen was referred to me. Until I got Glen I felt like I was being walked all over and being taken advantage of by the mother and her attorney. I was very pleased with how Glen got things under control without making things worse. One thing he did that was very helpful was to sit down with me several times and got me to see another perspective and how to deal with things so I was not pulled into the "emotional gamesmanship" my ex and her lawyer were trying to play. Glen taught me techniques to diffuse situations so I would not shoot myself in the foot and how to lessen the conflict while building a program so I could spend more time with my daughter. I was very pleased at how his technique worked and I was very pleased to see how he got the conflict reduced and more parenting time for me. His knowledge of the law and skill in mediation and court took on the big fancy Seattle and Bellevue law firm my ex hired to cause problems. Glen got me placed on an equal playing field to give me a good chance at sharing parenting. Eventually I got most of what I wanted, including not having to pay back child support for almost 5 years the mother was claiming that I did not think I owed. I got a pretty good parenting schedule and joint decision-making and vacations with my daughter, etc. I have learned when you have a family law problem you definitely need an attorney because this stuff gets pretty complicated. But when you have a family law problem that is difficult and emotionally trying, I would highly recommend Glen St.Louis, He is wise, hard-working and knows how to put your best case forward while dealing with the weaknesses of your case and making them appear to be strengths. While my case is now done if I ever need help again, I know where I am going to at the first hint of a problem -- Glen St.Louis. I highly recommend Glen St.Louis 'Happy Father Steven'

I'm the mother of a 3 1/2 year old little boy who went through a divorce this last year. Glen St.Louis was my attorney and I was very grateful and impressed at how he and his staff guided and represented me through the process step by step from beginning to end. I was very pleased with his service...s, his knowledge of the law, and his insight into human behavior. He coached me into how not to get caught in traps set by both of my former husband's attorneys. He spent almost two hours explaining every aspect of parenting plans and child support before going into court so I could understand why it was I was requesting something and so I could make well informed choices about mine, and my son's future. He is every strategic and tactical, and while planning a strategy is very good at thinking off the cuff to re-adjust the strategy when he has too.. The first time I went to court with Mr. St.Louis for temporary orders of support, parenting plan, spousal maintenance, attorney fees and other matters, Mr. St.Louis was very talented at showing my situation and maximizing my position to the Court. He shut the other attorney down with politeness, courtesy, knowledge of the law and the facts of my case. He was firm in his arguments and did not back down or flinch by the silly and false accusations my husband's attorney was making to try to get custody. He actually made the other attorney look a little silly in her approach. Mr. St.Louis did exceptionally well and my now former husband then fired his first attorney. As the case progressed with my (ex) husband's second attorney, Mr. St.Louis was steady, adept and creative with how to handle them too - a law firm known for representing just men.. He did not allow things to get out of hand or inflamed the situation. He knows what to argue about and what to not fight about. He likes to say "never miss an opportunity to be quiet." Mr. St.Louis was very knowledgable about selecting a mediator for our case. When the case was over, Mr. St.Louis spent 90 minutes with me going over every document and how to obey and understand it so I would not have any future problem. I am very grateful for that extra effort. He also gave me discounts on his legal bill. Several months later after my case ended, when I had some questions. Mr. St.Louis sat down with me again and did not even charge me!! His tips on parenting and how to deal with my husband were extremely helpful. He obtained for me $1,000 in monthly spousal maintenance from a nearly a 9 year marriage and $57% of the pension and other property values, as well as very good child support. While I hope I never have to hire another divorce lawyer, if I have to, I will immediately try to hire Mr. St.Louis and his staff for their services. . He is intelligent, hard-working, thoughtful, courteous and confident. His staff was well organized and thoughtful. While I don't know a lot of other attorneys, I could see how other attorneys treated and spoke to him at court and the respect they had for him. I have no hesitation in recommending his services. I am a very satisfied client and mother.
