A Fantastic Appellate Attorney

Shelby Lemmel is one of the best appellate attorney in the State of Washington. Both she and her partners, Ken Masters, are widely known within our legal community as the appellate attorneys who other attorneys go to when they need to preserve their trial court wins or appeal an erroneous judicial d...ecision. I know because I hired Shelby and her firm not only to represent my clients, but also my firm, on several occasions. Her analytical skills are deep and expansive just as her writing skills are powerful and persuasive. There has been numerous occasions where I read her appellate briefs and am mesmerized at how well-researched and scholarly it was written. As an attorney who does trial work that occasionally goes on appeal, I can personally attest that you will well-served with her representation. Hence, I endorse her in the strongest terms possible without reservation.
