      Posted by

      I was more than pleased by having Daniel Ajima as my lawyer for my case. He was there for me as it was his case. Providing me and updating me with any information on my case way of head a time. He won my case and came up with excellent feedback from the court.

      EXCELLENT!

      Mr. Ajema is such a professional! His knowledge stems from being a former prosecutor and therefore he has experience in litigation and motions hearings. Contact him with any questions and he is able to direct you to a solution! He speaks fluent Amharic in addition to his vast knowledge. I highly recommend Mr. Ajema!

      Highly recommended

      Posted by

      This was my first time hiring a lawyer to help with a traffic ticket and I was very happy and satisfied with the outcome. He was very efficient and quick while explaining to me the whole process. He surprisingly took my case last minute and I received the results I was hoping for. I felt confident leaving my car in his hands. I highly recommend him!

      Kayla's speeding ticket

      Posted by

      A friend of mine gave me his number and I gave him a call about my traffic ticket. I was speeding trying to get to work early and I was going 90 in a 60. Normally I would never do this but the one time I did I got pulled over for it. So I got a ticket and i have Never gotten a speeding ticket before, so I didn't know what to do. Once I called Daniel, he not only calmed me down and helped me with this process but he explained the ins and outs of the whole process. He sent me some information to fill out and I sent him it and a money order back. This is all I had to do and he took care of it and kept me informed of everything along the way. No $400 ticket just his fee. thank you Daniel!!!

      Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

      Daniel is an excellent attorney. I met Daniel when he was a prosecuting attorney for King County. We tried a DUI case against each other and he obtained a guilty verdict. Through the trial, and before and after, Daniel always showed class and integrity, even empathy for my client. I was impressed by his knowledge of the law and his courtroom presence, and I know now that he is representing clients on the other side of the aisle he is a dedicated advocate for them. I heartily endorse this attorney.
