Dennis John McGlothin

He lacks the capacity to represent you adequately. I would rate him poorly if given the chance. He consistently disregards input and shuts down communication. My case suffered greatly under his handling. He appears unprepared and fails to grasp the essential facts, often succumbing to emotional manip...ulation by opposing counsel. His personal emotions clouded his judgment during my proceedings, leading to disastrous outcomes. His ego takes precedence over the client's best interests. He initiates unnecessary legal actions without consulting you and charges for them. He fails to go through the documentation with you before filing and assumes the client will accept it without discussion. His credibility is questionable as he frequently resorts to dishonesty. His team mirrors his incompetence, displaying a similar lack of responsiveness and attentiveness. Despite his overestimation of his abilities, he falls short in competence. There's much more to say, but I'll refrain. His incompetence resulted in significant financial losses for me and he consistently deflects blame onto others and refuses to take responsibility for his actions.

I was referred to Dennis by an acquaintance who also practice law in Seattle, but not Family Law as I needed. Dennis took on my complex case regarding de facto parentage as well as a divorce from an extremely difficult person. He stuck it out with me for the near 3 years it took in court, covid and o...pposing side delays. Dennis shines with a challenge. His knowledge and research are beyond thorough and legal arguments are compelling. He is at home in a courtroom (in my case zoom courtroom) and is so laser focused on your case when it is active that he would remember the history better than I would! And I really appreciated that he loved to explain the case law and how it applied to my case. My ex tried to take half of my pre-marriage life’s savings, including my home. He got none of it. Thank you Dennis. I’d also add that Dennis is brilliant with more complex financials, including stock options (and I am a 20+ year finance executive), so he’ll have that covered. The de facto parentage case is the complex one as the laws are new or not clear and still developing. Dennis is personally taking on the appeal process to get clarity in the law so other de facto parents and their children don’t have to experience the challenge I did. Dennis is both passionate about the law and truly cares about his clients and wants to do everything he can to help. I am forever grateful.

This lawyer represented me and screwed up my case royally. I prefer not to leave personal details of my case and my life on a public forum and I do not want retaliation from him so I will refrain from disclosing too much details. He collected money from me, made promises about his abilities to perfor...m but could not pull it off. Overpromised and underdelivered and accosted me greatly! If you like to have more details, contact me.
