Stay away from this attorney
I trusted Mr. Hawkes. But since he received my payment, he's been uncooperative and even won't share a copy of my estate documents with me. His assistant keeps saying they either don't have them or they need time to find them. When I finally got him on the phone, to my surprise he started yelling ...

Excellent, personally attentive, skilled representation
Roger Hawks served my family and me very well in very stressful case. He is honest, no-nonsense, direct and kind. Saved my bacon.

Horrible Experience
HORRIBLE experience with this law firm. I would NEVER recommend this firm to anyone!! UNRESPONSIVE, ONLY RESPONSIVE to charging hours. NO CALL BACKS, Either they are understaffed, or just don't care.

Roger Edwin Hawkes's Lawyer Endorsements
"Mr. Hawkes provides compassionate, genuine and dedicated representation. These traits, together with over 30 years of experience, shine through in the results in his clients' cases. I endorse this lawyer."
"I am happy to endorse Roger Hawkes. I have known Roger for maybe 15 years. We go back a long way. At one time Roger and I discussed potentially associating together in the same firm. I would not have proposed this if I did not have a high opinion of Roger. I know Roger mostly from the personal injury practice, but I am well aware of his experience in family law and estate planning. Roger is a dedicated lawyer who really goes to bat for his clients. He also possesses an enviable trait - he is a genuinely regular guy, approachable, reasonable and empathetic. Clients who retain Roger will get the "real deal.""
"It is a pleasure to endorse Roger Hawkes. He is one of Snohomish County's best veteran family law attorneys; he knows it all and is liked and trusted by everbody, including the judges and commissioners. He would be a good choice for anybody who needs a lawyer or a mediator."
"I have referred many clients to Roger Hawkes, and he has always done an excellent job. I have also associated litigation cases with him, and the result was excellent. His professional and ethical standards are the highest."
