Absolutely the kindest, nicest lawyer out there.
Outstanding at trial, very likable for a jury and for his clients.
Extremely professional yet easy to talk to, keeps you informed.
I have recommended him several times and will continue to do so.
Jim Hailey and co-council Kris Hauser have and are still handeling a medical malpractice for me. My personal and professional experience with them is second to none.
I have and will continue to refer clients to them.
I have a special interest in brain injury cases and have handled many significant injury cases. Brain injuries are often devastating to the client and their family and require a range of experts and diagnostic tests that are frequently overlooked. If there has been a concussion or loss of consciousness, there is often an accompanying brain injury of some degree.
I have been the primary auto accident attorney in the firm for a number of years and have experience ranging from smaller accidents to the most serious of spinal cord and brain injury accidents.
I now handle a select number of serious auto accidents involving significant injuries, including brain injury and spinal injury as well as orthopedic malpractice cases. Other personal injury areas in which I have extensive experience include toxic torts, product liability, construction site accidents, slip & fall accidents, and sexual assault claims
I handle a select number of Washington State workers compensation cases, whether a Department of Labor & Industries case or one administered by a self-insured employer. I began my practice in workers compensation three decades ago and have returned to doing cases involving serious disability or of broader public interest.
I have been a successful litigator for more than 30 years. During those years, I've handled hundreds of hearings, arbitrations, and trials. This has given me broad litigation experience covering product liability claims, toxic tort claims, serious motor vehicle accident claims, complex insurance claims, work-related injury claims, consumer class action claims, and serious premises injuries.
I joined Schroeter Goldmark & Bender in 1977 because I believed it was the finest trial firm in the Northwest and one of the finest in the nation. I carry the highest rating for attorneys for both competence and ethics from the nationally respected Martindale-Hubble service (AV rating), which is accorded to only 5% of reviewed attorneys.
I prefer to limit the number of cases that I handle at any one time so that I can give personal attention to clients in what is often one of the most important events in their lives.
