Karma L Zaike

Karma is one of the most knowledgeable and dedicated family law and Domestic Violence attorneys in Seattle. She finds new and creative ways to support her clients obtain fair and just results when the system seems to fail them and other attorneys are at a loss of what to do. Not only is she extremely... intelligent but she is very professional and respected. Despite being a family law attorney myself, I am always amazed at what I learn from her.

I thought that honest lawyers exist only in Hollywood movies where they are beautiful from outside and inside and are fighting against all bad for all good saving the whole world. And real lawyers are always look at you through their money glasses where you can see this $$$ reflection in their eyes. ...But now I know that professional and honest lawyers do exist because I met Karma Zaike. She won’t start working with you if you are not honest and not reasonable yourself. Her service is not cheap but we live in one of the most expensive cities in one of the most expensive countries. And you get what you paid for. After very hard two years long divorce that I was not initiated I can say that she deserves each dollar charged and worked hard for it. She won ALL my numerous court hearing. After living in the basement of my friend’s house alone I live in my house with my daughter again and I have my life back. Karma is always prepared for the hearings, always have plan A, B and C, she discusses it with you, explain all these difficult terms and turns, makes you understand all options and steps, her calculations are always right. Her professional knowledge is outstanding. I was witnessing how judges and commissioners asked her during the hearing about some law related things using her as some law Wikipedia. Besides decent education, knowledge and preparation to each hearing she works very efficiently during the hearing. I was very impressed watching how fast she observes incoming information, makes some notes, formulas, calculations, compile something and responses fast and efficient. During this long divorce many times I had to sit in the court rooms and wait for my turn and I had to listen other cases and to see other attorneys. And I always conclude for myself: I have the best one! I recommended Karma Zaike already and will always recommend her as a family attorney. Especially for difficult cases. P.S. It is very strange to see these one star reviews. Their content looks like made from the same template and don’t believe it . I will not be surprise if they were made by some other parties that lost in the courtroom to Karma.

Karma has been been attorney managing my child custody matters regarding my daughter for the last 16 years. Yes for the last 16 years! Karma has been nothing less than ultimately professional and ethical and in the end I always felt like she had my best interest at heart as a client. Karma pract...ices and conducts herself with the upmost matter of integrity and honestly. I found her to be punctual and she conducts herself with the upmost matter of professionalism. I can tell you for years Karma always presented the facts to me, what to expect and fair options I had to consider regarding family matters with my daughter. Fighting family matters is never easy. Being a responsible parent and adult in the eyes of our justice system is harder. Having Karma is your court makes it better. Karma will be my attorney for years to come regarding my daughter. The system is not easy to fight - Trust me I feel for parents out there. We want what is best for our kids and Karma will be in your court. I can't say enough about her professionalism and how she she has helped me.

I hired Karma to fight a child custody relocation case for me. I emailed Karma 5 times leading up to the deadline, none of which were returned and she missed the filing deadline by one day and failed to issue the summons to the opposing party by *weeks*. In court, Karma admitted it was 100% her fau...lt and the judge had to award relocation as a result (per WA law). I then fired Karma and retained another attorney. To add insult to injury, Karma insisted on getting paid for her failure to adequately represent me, and never once apologized for her failings. Find another attorney.

I use this attorney for my family case ,she always returns my phone calls.she is very proffesional and generous.She is vey patient with me due to the difficult time i have speaking english. Most lawyers i've dealt with have been greedy for $$ only, when the case ends up being the same result anyway, ...Not with this lawyer.She is the best, i would recommend her to anyone in need of a good family lawyer!! P.S. She knows how to handle herself in the court room.
