Nicholas R Ranallo

Our family is so grateful for Nick’s help. He guided us through a very stressful landlord-tenant matter with professionalism, patience, and genuine care. He was always thorough, responsive, and willing to take the time to answer our questions and explain our options. Throughout the process, we fel...t supported, informed, and confident that we had someone in our corner. We truly appreciated not only his knowledge and advocacy, but also his kindness. We cannot recommend him highly enough and are incredibly thankful for everything he did for our family. Nick’s a pretty rad dude!

Overall, Nick was great to work with throughout the case. I simply asked if he had received a response from the parties he was contacting regarding a tenant issue. Immediately after I asked, he responded by questioning the status of my bill. While I understand the importance of payment, I was trying ...to clarify whether the situation was fully resolved. Instead of offering a professional update, his reply came off as rude, telling me I needed to pay my bill immediately. I paid the bill, but I will not be working with him again. It felt unprofessional to shut down a client who was just seeking clarity, especially as this was my first experience dealing with a situation like this. Unfortunately, I won’t be returning to him in the future.

Nick helped me navigate a very difficult lease situation, and I couldn’t have asked for better support. He was responsive, empathetic, and sincere throughout the process. His counsel was wise and measured. He never overpromised, yet consistently delivered exactly what was needed. Nick communicated... thoughtfully on my behalf, handled everything with calm professionalism, and brought clarity to a situation that had felt overwhelming. His leadership was exactly what I needed: steady, fair, and effective. I’m very grateful for his help and highly recommend him.

I recently retained Nick as counsel to help navigate a Quiet Title Lawsuit. I was referred to him by the King County Bar Association and he reached out via e-mail first to schedule a call. After I replied with my availability, we had our first phone consultation which went very well. After listening ...to my side of the story and asking questions to clarify the situation, he expressed exactly how he could help and his fees up front. He was professional, polite and transparent which I truly appreciated. After retaining him, he started working on my case and gave updates in a timely manner. Whenever I had questions and reached out via e-mail, he always responded within a few hours. He was able to resolve the case for me in a reasonable amount of time. I would recommend him to my friends and colleagues if they ever needed legal counsel for any landlord or tenant cases.

I engaged Nick for over a month with the clear objective of developing a strategic plan to leverage my equity position in a company to pursue a potential buyout, as permitted under my contractual rights. From the outset, I communicated my expectations for actionable legal guidance and strategic direc...tion. However, Nick repeatedly stated he would not take any legal action on my behalf, including sending formal communications, initiating arbitration (as outlined in my agreement), or proposing a clear course of action. Despite our agreement being structured as a consulting engagement intended to move matters forward, Nick failed to offer any substantive plan or actionable advice. Throughout the six weeks of our engagement, there was no meaningful progress—no steps were taken, and no strategies were proposed. It became apparent that his primary interest was in continuing the engagement solely for the purpose of billing, without delivering value or fulfilling the scope of the engagement. I would not recommend this attorney to others, particularly those seeking proactive legal support or strategic counsel.
