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.

Karma was my divorce lawyer back in 2014, I was in a very bad situation dealing with very experienced litigator ex and his attorney ( the firm represent dad's). I was forced out of family home and no visitation at the beginning. Karma turned everything around where I back to family home and had my ...son back to me within the 2 weeks. she gets things done immediately and effectively . even the family court judge commented on her being a good lawyer. I worked with few attorneys nobody is like karma. Her fees are high but she worth every penny. She usually very busy, if you lucky enough to work with her, do it.

I sought a second opinion on my divorce case after quickly realizing the firm I had was using tactics to draw out fees and timeline with a less than optimal outcome. Upon meeting Karma, I realized many of the things told to me by my original firm were not true. For instance, I didn't need a temporary... order which my attorney was vying for (and costing lots of money negotiating with opposing counsel.) Karma was direct and honest. She presented herself as very competent and laid out a strategy that appeared expedient. After switching firms to Ms. Zaike, she quickly got a trial date and it was an effective strategy at getting opposing counsel to make decisions and force a fixed timeline. After mediation was unsuccessful, opposing counsel quickly compromised because they did not want to go to trial. Overall, I was very happy with the outcome. Karma is an attorney who's heart is in the right place and she has a passion for doing the right thing with he legal chops to put forth a strategic plan for her clients. Karma's fees are higher than some but when you have someone that can get the job done expediently, it more than pays for itself.

I hired Karma to handle my divorce and to make it as amicable as possible. She not only stayed within my expectations but to this day I have an extremely amicable relationship with my ex AND I STILL HAVE 100% ownership of my company. Karma really takes the time to listen, tell you what you don’t wa...nt to hear in order to get you the best outcome possible!
