Tireless Advocate

Veronica has been an advocate for myself and my child for the past 12 years. I had a child with an abusive ex who has continued their abuse post break up via the court system. Veronica has helped me navigate a very contentious child custody trial, a later parenting plan modification, and most recentl...y an order to obtain a passport for my child. She is calm under pressure, is incredibly knowledgeable about WA State case law, and she has done this job for so long because she truly wants to help people. She has provided me incredible representation over the years and I am truly grateful to her and her entire team.

Amazing support in a high-conflict case

Veronica is an exceptional family law attorney who helped me win a high-conflict custody case. She was always available to answer my questions and concerns, and she provided me with the support I needed throughout the entire process. Veronica’s knowledge of family law is extensive, and she was able t...o use her expertise to help me navigate the complexities of my case. Despite the fact that we continually had to go back to court due to conflict, Veronica remained professional, compassionate, and always kept my best interests in mind. I would highly recommend Veronica to anyone who needs a family law attorney.

Best attorney in WA state

Veronica is hands down the best lawyer I have ever come across. I was very lucky to have found her after firing my previous two lawyers. She helped me get custody of my child. She was able to negotiate without going to court with the other party’s lawyer and get a 50/50 parenting plan on a temporary ...basis after an agreement was not met in mediation. I got the most out of Veronica in the least amount of time. She is brilliant, fast at responding to emails, and is a master in law. Sometimes she will tell you what you do not want to hear but it is what you need to hear. She won my trial case in Snohomish county who has a reputation of making it extremely different for fathers in custody suits. She has helped both mothers and fathers but when fathers have the disadvantage she is able to make the impossible possible. If you have a weak GAL, even if the GAL’s recommendation rules in your favor (which was the case for me) she will help coach them during trial by throwing them softballs. She also has experience with destroying GAL recommendations who do not rule in your favor. Veronica saved my life. If you are passionate and determined enough about your case she will fight hard for you against all odds. She will tell you the hard truth, but she will believe in you and listen to you if you are adamant to take the risk of that’s what you truly believe is in the best needs of your child(ten) She is ethical and a good person at heart and very fair when it comes to billing. She knows the game of law and will easily put the opposing party in check mate. Veronica is someone you would want to hang out with and there needs to be more lawyers like her. She is down to earth and charismatic. She has a good heart and will help guide you through a very tough process, helping you relax in a very stressful environment. I am so lucky I found her. It was like winning the lottery. She was my third attorney and helped me win my trial case. Her legal assistant Amy is also very good. She will help you by responding to emails promptly and will help strategize by talking on the phone, and will help edit your declarations. Veronica has 30+ years experience and will make other attorneys look like they just got out of law school. Veronica is the best thing that ever happened to me. She is confident and will surprise you on how well she knows your case. Veronica is an extremely hard worker. She works so hard that she will make herself sick because she’s a workaholic. I wish I would have hired her from day one. My custody case wouldn’t last as long and wouldn’t have costed as much. During trial when the judge said it may go to a second day Veronica was able to wrap it up under an hour so we wouldn’t have to go a second day costing more money. She truly cares about her clients and can see right through the BS so be honest with her and she will take you far! Thank you so much !! Hire this woman for mothers and especially fathers. Do not hire Damon canfield or Morgan Witt.

One of the best decisions I ever made

Consulted her for my child custody case and was so impressed I hired her immediately. Having never been through any kind of legal process, I could not have asked for a more knowledgeable and capable lawyer. She explained to me the entire process beforehand and while it was going on, what was expected... of me, and how reasonable my own expectations were. She patiently answered my many questions and more than once had to reassure me when the mother was being unreasonable or erratic. Knowing that I had someone with her expertise and experience on my side was instrumental in keeping me on the right heading through a turbulent period of my life and successfully brought it to a most satisfactory conclusion. Her staff us top-notch. I cannot recommend her enough.
