Look elsehwhere

She spent the better part of a year wasting my time and money trying to reduce my 4 years of unpaid spousal support. In the end, I ended up owing her thousands, as well as 60K and 3 more years of my life. I'd look elsewhere.

Exceptional divorce lawyer

great divorce lawyer for men - worked miracles .. In my opinion Wash state is one of the most unjust, capricious and matriarchal jurisdictions "period" - but in the area of family law it is draconian. When you got before one of Washington's corrupt lefty judges you want someone like Nancy there with ...you. Highest ethical standards - not sure what the other post was talking about. Thanks nancy

REVIEW

Hired Ms Sorensen to represent me in a divorce. She was not only very often unavailable she expected me to lie in my declaration and interrogatories in order to make my ex look bad. As much as I wanted to be divorced I wanted to be fair to my ex. This woman has absolutely no integrity. I would not... recommend her to anyone.

Out of State Custody Matter

I would recommend Ms. Sorensen and her assistant. I want to thank them for helping me through the most emotionand and distressing situation in my life. I am eternally thankful for their services and efforts in obtaining my daughter back for me and completing my family again. They were there throug...h it all constantly staying positive, always available and reassuring us that the outcome should be in our favor. Words cannot express how grateful I am for them. It felt like they devoted all their efforts to my case until it was completed. I felt like they fought for us like they were a member of our own family. When we were in town they welcomed us with open arms and were very hospitable driving us to hearing and eased our anxity about oour visit. I will never forget what they did for my family. THe outcome of the case was life changing for me and my family.

Professionsl and Top Notch

Nancy handled my father's estate and was professional and extremenly responsive. My son was served with divorce papers and I had him see Nancy and she handled his divorce. She was very professional and in fact the commissioner at his hearing ruled exactly as Nancy thought he would - she knows her ...stuff. The Commissioner reprimanded the other attorney at the hearing. I would recommend Nancy's office to anyone. She is not only a good attorney but a good person.
