Alex Savojni And Rhodes Legal

Alexander Savojni received the highest recommendation from a friend during my search for an ethical, relentless and client focused attorney in the Seattle/Western Washington area. The referral to Alex and Rhodes Legal Group provide me the amazing opportunity to watch this gifted and experienced a...ttorney demonstrate his skill, persistence, and a singular resolve to moral litigation and exemplary attention to his client. The staff at Rhodes Legal provided friendly, professional, knowledgeable support during my case. While my unfortunate life event required Alex’s meticulous and disciplined attention to detail as a litigator, finding Alex made the worst thing to happen to me in 2021 become the smartest decision and the best thing to happen for me in 2021. In believing the extensive intricacies of my case details and circumstances would be exhausting and perplexing to navigate, Alex ended our initial discussion by skillfully extracting the relevant points he would successfully present in his argument. The way Alex responded to my contentious, unrelenting respondent demonstrated that his work ethics mirror the high moral ideals he exhibits in his personal life. I am extremely fortunate that Alex provided efficient, stellar guidance in navigating my case to a successful decision. Alex Savojni and Rhodes Legal were the winning team I needed in a truly difficult time. Thank you Alex.

Best Attorney! START here, Alex is the best - Winning verdict on a complex case.

I came to Alex because I had a civil protection order that was unfairly put on me, and I had a chance for a reconsideration, I wanted the best representation, as this was my last shot to remove the order. Alex believed in me, he read through every detail of the case, asked all the right questions, wr...ote a beautiful legal brief for the court. I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer. We had the hearing yesterday, it was over an hour of litigation and Alex was on-point! He was so professional, knew case law, knew my case, unbelievable how good he was. Complete brilliance. HE WON my case! The protection order was rescinded. He was so good; he got a judge who already made a ruling, to reverse their ruling. Such a good litigator, he knows the law! I would recommend Alex over and over again. I am so grateful for him defending me, and how hard he worked, and how close he looked at the case. Please start with Alex, he is the best. Even the opposing side complemented him, he is so likable and SO SMART!

Thank you Alexander ! (Matt Perry)

I hired Alexander for a Civil Domestic matter. He was very thorough and extremely professional. His knowledge of the law in this area is very strong. He litigated my case and ultimately won. I read previous reviews before I hired him, and they are spot on. He is exactly what people have said abo...ut him. My case did have a hearing and Alexander litigated my case within the Supreme Court. He is very skilled in this area as well. I would highly recommend him. Thank you for protecting my family !

Removal of Order for Protection

A failed marriage left me with Order for Protection from my ex-wife against me since 2001. Initially it had no impact on my ability to possess firearms or to obtain a concealed pistol permit, I just couldn’t purchase any new firearms through a dealer. But in 2014, the Washington State Legislature... passed House Bill 1840 which revised RCW’s 9.41.040 and 9.41.800 and made it illegal for me to possess firearms. Because I hunt, teach Hunter Education for WA state and enjoy the shotgun sports, this well intended house bill became a legal issue that mandated the removal of the protection order, in order for me to continue to possess firearms. Contact with the Rhodes Legal Group connected me with attorney Alexander Savojni to handle my case. From the very beginning, Alexander proved his competence by being extremely knowledgeable about what must be done to effect removal of an order of protection. He provided me with the details of the five criteria which would be used by the court “In determining whether there has been a substantial change in circumstances…” per RCW 26.50.130. I wrote my initial declaration to describe details of my story; how the Order of Protection came to be, why it was inappropriate any longer and the impact to my life if my firearm possession rights weren’t restored. Alex read, edited and critiqued my declaration to reinforce the details that there “had been a substantial change in circumstances…” and to make my declaration a strong submission to the court. The court found in my favor and terminated the order of protection. I am very grateful for Alex’s expertise with this legal issue, the sound guidance he gave me, his knowledgeable recommendations and the legal representation he provided, which enabled the termination of the order of protection.

Wow and Amazing

Alexander helped me with a civil litigation case involving a guy that I had dated who was now stalking/harrassing me. He was repsonsive, met with me the next day after calling and 100% capable. He knew the law and explained it to me very clearly in a way that I could understand. There was no feeling ...of being rushed and he let me ask all the questions that I needed to in order to feel comfortable. He later took my written statment that I sent to him and add to it. His additions were error free and unbeleivable eloquent. It was so well written. He is clearly experienced and when we did go to court the protection order was granted. It was a scary situation but Alexander was there every step of the way. I can't recommend him enough. The number of 5 star reviews here just attest to the fact that he is a top notch Attorney.
