Dedicated and Knowledgeable Landlord-Tenant Attorney

I had a very difficult eviction case in King County where the tenant dragged things out for over a year. My lawyer guided me through every step of the process with professionalism, patience, and deep knowledge of landlord-tenant law. They always explained things clearly, kept me updated on the court... process and sheriff delays, and made sure I stayed on the right side of the law. What really stood out was their persistence and responsiveness — even when the system was slow and frustrating, they kept pushing things forward and gave me confidence that we would get to the finish line. Thanks to their hard work, I was finally able to regain possession of my property. I strongly recommend them to any landlord or property owner dealing with difficult tenants or eviction issues.

We honor your honesty, knowledge and great work!

We love the work Keon has done for us. Even though while he has many cases on his hands, he still spared his weekend time, studied our case, comply his previous experience he had with the evildoers defendant’s doing and provided truthful evidence in court, he strikes the slinky defendant down. His pr...ofessional skills has stopped the defendant continues hurting us and maybe many other homeowners getting hurt. Your effort it’s greatly appreciated Keon!

Excellent work Keon!

Keon is excellent. He handled an eviction for me and ensured that all the details were covered and done correctly. He was quick too which saved on rental losses.

Landlord or tenant lawyer | Apr 07

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Mr. Knutson is probably the best deal you can find in Western Washington when it comes to landlord-tenant matters. Mr. Knutson is not only extremely knowledgeable in this area of law, but he is guides his clients to the best resolutions possible by giving practicable, usable advice. Mr. Knutson provides the same high quality advice and representation often seen in attorneys who have practiced for decades, but without the hefty price tag that comes with that experience. If you want a high quality, skilled attorney who will guide you to a successful resolution without having to break the bank, Keon Knutson is your attorney. Having both worked with and against Keon I highly recommend his services."
