Mike Mazon and our office had a mutual client/patient who was treating in our clinic for multiple car accidents they were involved in. The client didn't have health insurance or PIP coverage, so we agreed as a favor to hold this person's treatment balance so they could get treatment for their injuri...es, with the understanding that we would be paid at the end of the case from the settlement. We did not have to do this, and did it only as a kindness for this person who could not afford to pay out of pocket for any amount of treatment, but nonetheless was injured and needed the care. This agreement was made at our inconvenience and expense but we held the balance for multiple years while the case was pending. When the case settled and we asked to be paid, Mike tried to get us to reduce our bill by over 80%. When we asked for a more reasonable resolution, he said he would teach us a lesson by disbursing all of the money to the client without paying us at all, in effect exposing the client to a very large debt and mounting collections actions as we tried to recover payment for this significant outstanding balance our office was owed. Not only did Mike retract on his agreement, but then he put his client in a horrible position where we had to go after her for that money. It was not clear that she was ever informed by Mike that our bill had not been paid and that we were owed a great deal for this balance. We never got paid a cent for any part of this treatment balance. I highly recommend looking elsewhere for a more professional lawyer.

Broken tibia plateau

I was very lucky to find Micheal. I was badly injured at a sketchy bed and breakfast and needed surgery and 4 months off work. I called probably 20 lawyers and one of them referred me to Micheal. My case settled in 11 weeks for the maximum amount — unfortunately they weren’t properly insured but the ...settlement was the best I could have gotten. I felt the staff at his office was very supportive and even came to the airport to have me sign everything before I flew home to Michigan. I’m grateful that I had this help after this tragic fall. I highly recommend this law office

Knows what he is doing. Helpful!

I walked out of a business carrying my new product and their entry had was iced up and I slipped and broke not only the item I just bought & picked up but both my ankle and wrist. I talked to the business & they gave me the run around. I contacted Michael and was able to relax. He not only got all my... medical paid, I got a refund on the item (it was very expensive), and I got some for pain & suffering. If I ever have another personal injury of any kind, I'm not even going to try talking to anyone but Michael Mazon because I know he will go above & beyond!

Best Choice

I’m not a person prone to writing reviews. My positive experience dealing with Seattle Law Offices and, specifically, Mike Mazon compelled me to do so. I was involved in a car accident in which I sustained injury’s to my neck and back. I needed help. I knew I would need someone who would fight fo...r me. From the minute I walked into Mazon’s office, I felt comfortable with Mike and his staff. They made me feel important. They were professional without being stuffy. They didn’t talk above me and made sure I understood what was happening throughout the entire process. That was vital to me. Most importantly, Mike worked with me. Not just for me. I knew I had come to the right place. I retained Mike and his staff, then and there. It was the best decision I’ve ever made.

Michael is great to work with!

I was involved in a rear-end accident on Interstate 5 in Seattle. I called Mr. Mazon on the day after my accident because I was experiencing headaches, neck and back pain. Mr. Mazon and his staff eased my concerns and helped me negotiate a fair settlement for my injuries. He answered all of my que...stions and took away all the stress of working with the insurance company, all I had to do was work on getting better. I recommend Seattle Law Offices of Michael Mazon wholeheartedly. You won’t be disappointed.

"I have known Mike since meeting him 38 years ago while attending the same law school. After that, for a number of years, we worked together at the same law firm. This has given me the unique perspective of watching Mike's growth not only as a person but also as a lawyer. Mike possesses all of the attributes one needs when deciding to hire a lawyer. He is personable and treats others with respect. He makes it a point to get along with opposing counsel because he knows this inures to his client's benefit. One of Mike's biggest attributes is how much he cares for his clients and their cases. They are not just numbers. Each client is treated as if there's is the only case that matters. Mike's ability to navigate the insurance maze and his attention to detail and persuasive advocacy make he and his office a great choice for anyone seeing advice or representation in this area."
