CliffsNotes Review: Hire this firm if you can! Where does one even begin when trying to give thanks to a team that has helped during such an emotional, stressful, and difficult time? The lawyers and staff at The Law Offices of Lance Fryrear have been such a blessing. After the police were called a...nd an arrest was made, it felt like my life was over. I felt so powerless during those initial days where the court process and legal battles seemed beyond hope. I am not sure how I would have made (and continue to be making it) through this legal process without Lance and his team. Everytime I called with a worry or concern, Rachel and Shannon would answer the phone, listen attentively and provide encouragement. They never made me feel like a burden or annoyance (even when I felt I was because of all the anxiety). Lance and Colleen worked to support me through a Civil PO that was filed in addition to my pre-charge criminal defense needs. Colleen went above and beyond, helping me reach out for my personal items, providing comfort and support, and always making me feel like a priority. Lance not only brought so much legal knowledge and experience (check out his Youtube), but his ability to understand the process and speak to the emotional side really was a game changer. Before agreeing to help with the Civil PO, he listened attentively to the situation. Lance and his team agreed to help me with the criminal defense matter, but only wanted to commit to helping with the Civil PO, if there was something they could actually do in my situation to help. His firm is not interested in saying “yes” to everything to get a paycheck. They actually care about YOU and YOUR SPECIFIC case. He felt based on my circumstances, that although filing a written response might not be wise in my case, there could be other avenues to explore, and thus agreed to help with that legal matter. If you work with Lance and his team, it is worth every penny. Make sure to listen to his advice! You, like me, will likely have to fight the urge to want things resolved yesterday. Fight the urge to want to act out of frustration from not having your side heard by the justice system. Fight the urge to think that your ideas and timing are right and that slow justice is not justice. Time is your friend in many of these cases. I worked to trust Lance and his team with this, groaning in my mind about the long lengths between court dates, but in the end he and his team were right. Time can change people and circumstances. The Civil PO was dismissed! For my pre-charge criminal defense, my lawyer Elisabeth also worked tirelessly to support me by answering questions, reviewing documents, and helping me with ancillary issues related to my case. She always made time for me and I felt heard and cared for by her. This is a quality not all law firms have, but it ended up being so important to me, so do not overlook it if it is important to you. It is so valuable to work with lawyers and staff who are empathetic and patient since a lot of the struggle is trusting that your team really cares about you and your case. If you want a law team that will not only work to get you successful legal outcomes to your case, but also will help you make sense of things and respond to your emotions with care, I can not recommend the lawyers and staff at The LawOffice of Lance Fryrear enough. I have had such amazing results, and have felt as supported as possible throughout this process, which would not have been possible without my legal team. Thank you Lance, Elisabeth, Colleen, Rachel, Shannon, and the other amazing lawyers and staff who work to give people accused of crimes a second chance at life. Your work and effort really does make a difference!

In 2023, I received a troubling accusation of fourth-degree assault via mail, a jarring experience given my spotless record. In my quest for legal aid, Lance Fryrear’s firm emerged as a beacon of hope amidst the chaos. Their commitment to advocacy and empowerment stood out during our meticulous vetti...ng process. Lance's fervor for justice, coupled with his team's dedication, shone brightly as they navigated me through unfamiliar legal terrain. Their proactive approach, coupled with unwavering support, not only allayed my fears but transformed an initially daunting ordeal into a manageable journey. Thanks to their tireless efforts and unwavering compassion, my case was rightfully dismissed, granting me a newfound sense of freedom. My gratitude knows no bounds for their invaluable assistance and profound humanity. Cheers to Lance and Annie and the entire Fryrear Team!

I was faced with allegations of domestic violence. I consulted Lance Fryrear's law office and got very timely & appropriate legal advice. My case was handled by Julia ( under the guidance of Lance ). I can not thank them enough, they brought my criminal charges to ONLY DVMRT classes and the case wa...s dismissed. They are very knowledgeable, respectful, and walked me out through the whole process. Highly recommended !!

Lance Fryrear is a very able and highly respected criminal defense attorney in the Seattle area. My sibling, who is a professional in the computer industry, was charged with a DV misdemeanor. My sibling maintained that he held his spouse's wrist during a domestic dispute and no more. This whole ...matter was a source of extraordinary anxiety and consternation for us. However, we were fortunate to retain Lance. Lance is measured and thoughtful in speech as well as temperament. In emotionally trying situations, he is an invaluable steadying influence. His assessments are precise and sober-minded, drawing from his wealth of legal experience. He secured a highly satisfactory outcome for my sibling and kept us on track throughout. I can say with confidence that Lance has earned the respect of prosecutors in the Seattle area. My sibling and I will be forever grateful to Lance for his services.
