About Edward
Biography
I am the principal attorney at my firm. Our firm’s philosophy is simple: meet the goals our client hired us to accomplish, whether that involves litigation or simply negotiating the best outcome possible. We measure our success not by the multimillion-dollar recoveries achieved through the years, but by the level of satisfaction we bring to our clients.
We have the resources, skills, and experience to tackle the tough cases against insurance companies, big corporations, and the government. We have a track record we can stand behind. If you want a law firm with experience and dedication, attorneys who will respond to your calls and questions, we would consider it an honor to discuss your legal problems with you.
Our firm focuses in representing plaintiffs in personal injury cases. We always do our best to find the true value in our clients’ cases. Even if you have been denied by your insurance company or turned away by other attorneys, we will take the time to reevaluate your case and we are not afraid to give you a second opinion.
We do not charge for consultations, whether by e-mail, telephone, or in person. We represent our clients on a contingency fee basis, which means we do not get paid unless you win.

Went beyond the Call of duty
I was very happy with the quality of representation that I received from them. They not only fought very hard but always kept me updated with developments on my case. After the case settled, they went above and beyond the call of duty and fought hard for me even after my case was settled, providing...

Exceptional, Trustworthy, and Professional
One of our family member was badly hurt after being struck by a Peterbilt truck. He suffered a closed head injury and a spinal injury. He spent years in rehab and used up all of his life savings for medical treatment. After the trucking company blamed him for the crash, I told him that he needed a...

A very good lawyer
I was treated very well by the attorneys and the office staff. The staff was very polite and responsive to my requests for help and I was able to meet the attorney on a weeknight and he took a lot of time talking to me about legal options on my case. I received a lot of good and practical advice th...

Trustworthy, Honest, and Highly Capable
My wife & I were involved in a car wreck in Bremerton years ago. We both suffered lower back injuries, mine worse than hers. My wife couldn’t work for weeks while I was a little luckier. The other guy was at fault but his insurance company tried to "cheap skate" on our claim, using the typical deny...
Posted by anonymous | February 07, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Trucking Accident
Simply the best lawyer you can find!
I could tell Edward was a great lawyer from our first meeting. I was struck by a truck that cut into my lane and totaled my car. Worse, he blamed us for causing the wreck. We were choosing between several attorneys and I purposely brought my wife with me to the meetings to get her opinion. Out of ...
Edward K. Le's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Ed for over ten years and have served as the mediator in several of his cases over the last few years. In my experience, Ed aggressively prepares all his cases as though they are going to trial and, as a result, is in a powerful negotiating position at mediation. In those cases that have not settled, he has gone to trial and frequently obtained jury verdicts substantially higher than the settlement value and often, well in excess of the defendant's insurance policy limits. He is an excellent advocate for his clients."
"I have known Edward professionally for almost a decade. From the beginning, I have been impressed with his dedication to his clients and community. He WORKS for his clients tirelessly, which is reflected in the success he brings them. I refer clients and friends to Edward without hesitation knowing that they will be represented by a dedicated, knowledgeable and skilled lawyer. In addition, he is a great guy to know."
"Ed is very knowledgeable about brain injury medicine and is a sophisticated courtroom advocate for his clients. I highly recommend Ed."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I am proud to endorse Edward. His character exemplifies the best of what an attorney should be: compassionate, ethical, and loyal. He represents clients with such passion and cares for them with such genuine authenticity that is just so hard to say in words. Simply put, he always put the clients interests ahead of his. And for that, I am so proud of him."

I know this because I have personally referred cases to Edward and co-counsel with Edward on several difficult cases and we have achieved remarkable results. together."
