Empathetic and succinct

Jordan always brought clarity while we were discussing open-ended and high-consequence employment matters

Jordan was great!

Jordan was outstanding throughout the whole process, which lasted about a year and a half. He answered all questions the best he could, gave timely information, explained exactly how things were going to work, and generally made the process significantly less stressful than it otherwise could have be...en. Outstanding work. I cannot thank him enough.

Amazing lawyers

I can't say enough about how much I LOVED working with these two lawyers. Both Robyn and Jordan empowered me and advocated on my behalf in away that has brought me so much healing. i came to them incredibly skeptical and fearful but they dispelled those fears. They were open, honest and empethetic t...owards me, and totally fearless and brilliant working with my case. I am so happy with how my case ended and thankful that I had the two of them by my side.

Absolutely satisfied

As a client, I felt so supported by Jordan and Robin. Their knowledge of laws and similar cases across King County and Washington State were so helpful in my case. They both made me feel confident in my case. I am so pleased with the outcome of my case. Even if I had been disappointed with the outcom...e, I would have still recommended these two outstanding lawyers. They really fought for me and made me feel validated and supported. I also appreciated how open our communication was. I could always reach out to them with questions or concerns and they replied promptly. I will forever refer them to friends and family members.

Great attorney - handled sensitive labor case with ease

I had a sensitive case involving unpaid wages from a former employer and Jordan handled it quickly and painlessly for me. I found him to be knowledgeable, affordable, and understanding of budgeting concerns. We were able to identify several potential paths forward with my claim and reasonable fee str...uctures for each. In the end, he was successful getting the claim settled in the quickest and cheapest path possible and I didn't have to interact with the offending party at all. I hope I don't have any other wage disputes in my future, but I will certainly come back to Jordan if I do!
