Fantastic Representation

Stacie is professional, kind, intelligent, steadfast, and hard-working. Throughout the three years represent my case, Stacie kept me informed and pushed the borders to provide me wonderful and successful legal services. Thank you Stacie for the enjoyable experience and smooth process!

Great job, took care of everything!

I hired Stacie to be my lawyer after I got injured in a car accident. I had never been in a car accident before and I did not know what to do. After sitting and talking with Stacie I felt much better about what was going to happen. I gave her the info about my accident and she then told me all I n...eed to worry about was getting better. After serveral months of physical therapy and getting back to 100% I meet back with Stacie. She took care of everything, getting my wage comensation taken care of, getting my physical therapy and doctors bills paid for, help with my car and getting my settlement to me. From day one Stacie took care of everything and took a very scary situation and made it very easy for me.

Thank you!

Stacie helped me throughout the entire process. When I didn't feel I was given the correct compensation from an insurance company after an accident, I sought a second opinion. Being a student at the University of Washington, at the time, I went for a free consultation with the UW Law School. The refe...rred me to Anderton Law Office, where I referred to Stacie. The whole process took a few years and after graduating from college, time was scarce while trying to build a career. Stacie helped to work around my schedule and make time for me. She helped me maintain a normal life, never having to focus on the accident that had already passed. Even though it took a few years to get to a settlement, it was never an sweat off my back. I have complete confidence in Stacie's abilities and will refer her to anybody with my complete support. Thank you Stacie, for all your help. :)

"I worked with Stacie on a difficult personal injury case involving a disputed bicycle accident. She was awesome! I was extremely impressed with her knowledge, her compassion, her command of the relevant laws, and her drive. She is an exceptional personal injury lawyer, especially when it comes to pedestrian and bicycle accident cases. It would be impossible for me to give her a stronger endorsement. I highly recommend her."

"I worked with Stacie on case last year: she is an excellent advocate, a delight to work with. She was on top of all aspects of her client’s case, knew the law, and was competent and efficient. This was alloyed with a rare mixture of compassion and tenacity. She could really turn up the heat when needed, but always maintained her professionalism with opposing counsel, so personality never got in the way of what was best for her client. As a result, we were able to get a great result in a challenging case. Stacie is many things: proud mother, caring counselor, skilled advocate. Above all, she is a delightful person, wonderful colleague, with a sure touch with people, an unpretentious grace, and great sense of humor. She is a force to be reckoned with. She has expertise in cycling accidents, so if you’re looking for a lawyer who cares about your bicycle injury and has the passion to get the job done, look no further."

"I have known Stacie for several years and have watched her work and seen firsthand how detailed and thorough she is in the preparation of her cases for settlement or trial. She has an excellent command of the law and the legal system of justice, and uses this to her client’s advantage. She is diligent, persistent, and tenacious in her dealings with insurance adjusters and their lawyers, while being kind and considerate with her clients and mindful of the unique circumstances and challenges each client faces. I highly recommend her to those looking for an ethical, tenacious, and compassionate lawyer to represent them."
