Fantastic and Effective

I found the best possible lawyer out there, you can too if you get Ian Wyckoff. An outstanding litigator! He got me results so quickly when I was so far in over my head for 2 separate issues. He is productive, timely, and a master in the courtroom!! I had no idea, then BOOM he gets it done. I am so... lucky to have found him. I can't say enough about his skills, my words won't do him justice so give him a call and find out for yourself.

Probate, estate litigation

Hello, to anyone fortunate to read this. Me and my wife hired Ian to represent my family in court in Seattle after someone my wife loved and took care of for years decided to leave her something and the family after a few years after he passed decided to come after my family. IAN Immersed himself in ...our case from day one and started immediately even before he took 1 payment. I live in Bellingham which is a hour north and I have a big family so he decided he would drive to us to save us a trip south, and that was greatly appreciated. He took the time to really sit down and understand the ends and outs of the situation, every detail. He was honest with us regardless of what news was coming our way, but gave us his word he would be right along the process with us and give his all to our case and I can tell you this he stood on his word 100 percent. He was heaven sent. He went to battle with the other side and stood his ground all the way and I love him for that. He saved my family from destruction. My name is Damien and this a true testimonial to Ian's professionalism, hardwork, dedication and caring nature. I 1000 PERCENT am happy with my results of my case, and if he was a everything do it lawyer he would be the only lawyer ever to hire. But I also was impressed with IAN as a person. His price he really worked with me on that and saved my life.

Experienced and trustworthy.

Michael Ian Wyckoff was a beacon of hope to my family at a time when our business was being sued due to an unjust situation that occurred a few years ago. Not only did he defend us throughout this very stressful situation, but he also provided excellent service, demonstrated professionalism, and put ...us at ease the entire time. Although some unexpected complications required an extensive amount of paperwork and became very time consuming, Michael Ian Wyckoff did not adjust our initial fee. His hard work and dedication to our case lead us to win both arbitration hearings. We cannot emphasize enough how professional and trustworthy he is. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is seeking legal representation.

Re: Trust and Estate Law

I hired Mr. Wycoff to address a family trust issue I had in Island County. I had tried to fix the problem myself but found the court and attorneys there to be clannish and impossible to work with. Since I am out of state I called multiple attorneys before Mr. Wycoff and he was the only one willing to... consult with me multiple times because I was relaying the information to my brother in another state and together we were deciding what to do. Ultimately, we hired Mr. Wycoff and he explained exactly what he would provide for the fee we paid. Each time the next step was complete Mr. Wycoff gave us the information we needed to make educated decisions whether to move forward in the process or stop. We always felt in control. Eventually Mr. Wycoff concluded our case successfully and we were thrilled. I would hire him again in a heartbeat. I'm so happy to have an attorney in Washington that knows the law and is available for any more issues that come up as they probably will because...family lol I highly recommend Mr. Wycoff and kind of miss talking to him although I don't miss the problem he handled for me one bit!

Professional, kind and calming

When I contacted Mr. Wyckoff I was very confused, emotional and concerned about a personal financial situation not knowing how to proceed as it was extremely important to complete quickly and properly. I was so worried about major legal costs with hiring an attorney but needed help and guidance. M...r. Wyckoff was so professional, kind and calming. He Reviewed all correspondence I had received and reviewed my documents finding what he felt the issue was. He was clear with the steps I could take on my own and was fairly certain the outcome would be positive without needing to hire him to fully assist. I took his advice, followed the steps and SUCCESS. I will be forever grateful for his patience and understanding of my concerns and making what could have been a disaster financially into a matter resolved in a few weeks. I would definitely seek his guidance and hire him if ever needed and will recommend him highly with no hesitation.

"I hired Ian as co-counsel on a civil litigation matter and truly could not have asked for a better partner. I was already aware of his top-notch research and analytical skills, but he has proven himself to be an immensely conscientious, communicative, and efficient lawyer who will not waste his clients’ time or money. He is exceedingly thorough, strategizes with a view far down the line, and will take the time to explain the law, options, and possible outcomes. Whenever I need to refer clients in Ian’s areas of practice, he will be the first person I contact."
