I have 35 years of law practice experience, many of those advising and representing clients in matters related to their real estate or business interests. My clients engage in business in all parts of Western Washington, including all of the Puget Sound region, with offices in cities such as Seattle, Bellevue and Tacoma. I represent larger, regional companies with extensive real estate investments, as well as family businesses. By including document drafting and litigation in my practice, I have acquired a broader perspective on the needs of my clients, making me a better drafter and litigator. My experience also provides me with the skills needed for effective mediation and arbitration of real estate and business disputes.

Posted by anonymous | March 22, 2021 | Hired Attorney
Mr. Kerruish has represented me in multiple, occasional matters over more than a decade and has facilitated resolution of matters in collaboration with counsel in other states. His analysis is sharp, his arguments are well-formed and well-put, and in court he has presented on my behalf--and prevailed...

I have hired David Kerruish on several occasions and so have been his client, and have also been his co-counsel on several cases since the late 1990s. He is first choice when I am hiring a lawyer because he is not only experienced in several areas of law, he is reliable, ethical, and quite effective ...

David is without a doubt one of the worst attorneys I have ever encountered. He is painfully inept at legal argumentation and analysis. He failed to draft motions that would have expedited an informal resolution of the matter, which is what I wanted to achieve. Rather than try to facilitate an inf...

I paid this attorney to help resolve a problem with a homeowner's association. There were several instances where emails and phone calls were not returned within a week or more. He offered to contact the homeowner's association attorney, which he never did, and offered to send me information, which...
"I have worked with Dave Kerruish on dozens of matters going back more than 20 years. In most of those matters, Dave has been an advocate where I have served as a mediator or arbitrator. I have consistently found Dave to be smart, knowledgeable, and a vigorous advocate for his clients, while at the same time adopting practical and common sense approaches designed to best serve his clients' interests. Without exception, all of my interactions with Dave have been positive experiences. He is a terrific lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have hired David to assist myself and my clients handle difficult business and real estate matters. He is smart and decisive with high ethical standards. He listens well to what the client's concerns are . He is careful in his billing practices and has a wonderful sense of humor."
"I have worked with Dave on several matters over the past 13 years, all involving litigation, and ranging from real estate to bankruptcy. I can say without hesitation that Dave is one of the most talented, hard-working attorneys I've ever known."
"Mr. Kerruish is a top notch practitioner. He is well versed in many areas of the law, and is very effective and economical in getting good results for his clients. Mr. Kerruish is diligent, ethical, thorough, and responsive. I endorse this lawyer's work."
"Mr. Kerruish was my co-counsel on a very contentious property dispute case. His expertise with the pertinent issues (boundary dispute) and ability to moderate between competing parties/claims was essential in reaching an agreed settlement which resolved the case short of trial. "
