Horrible

John Walsh represented me 10 years ago for a DUI. He said I should plea even though I was .0001 away from sober. He yelled at me when I said I might want a trial and I felt like I got a raw deal. Every lawyer I've talked to since and who reviewed my case says I shouldn't have plead guilty. I lear...ned my lesson when I got arrested and now I have a full fledged criminal conviction on my record. Thanks for nothing John.

Buyer BEWARE

All I will say is check out the Washington State Bar Association website and check out under: Disciplinary action taken. Mr. Walsh had me sign a contract and altered the contract when he went to make a copy for my records and added extra money to the contract without my knowledge. He returned to his ...desk and folded the contract up and placed it into an envelope. It wasn't until I fired Mr. Walsh, prior to any work done or court appearances when he informed me I owed him more money I paid him in full, and less than a month later he reported me to a collection agency, with claims of frudulent charges. Unethical and unprofessional. As of current date Mr. Walsh has been suspended from practicing in Washington State as a result of other improper activities to four other clients. Who knows how many more are out there.

Experience

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2007.

Suspension issued in WA, 2007

updated on 10/21/2009

This means the attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.

Censure issued in WA, 2000

updated on 10/21/2009

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
