Competent, Caring, Responsive and Results-Focused

Mr. Palmer is first and foremost that rare individual who genuinely cares about others. The fact that he happens to also be a competent, responsive and results-oriented lawyer just adds to him being a truly remarkable professional. Despite the unfortunate circumstances that brought Steve into our liv...es, we are very grateful we found him. I was helping my 86 year-old mother-in-law navigate her way through a divorce to end her 35+ year marriage and unfortunately was having to deal with an attorney another family member had hired close to a year before finding Steve. Other than charging her over $7,000 in fees and costs before ultimately abandoning her at a critical juncture in the case, the first attorney did very little. He was not responsive at all and obviously did not have her best interest in mind at all. Steve stepped in the moment we retained him and he brought the entire proceeding to an expeditious and better than expected resolution. During the entire time we were working with Steve he was always available, always very responsive whenever we had a question and truly exuded the empathy, compassion and confidence that helped my mother-in-law survive this life-altering situation. He was laser-focused on resolving this matter as quickly as possible and kept her best interests at the forefront of everything he did in representing her. On behalf of my entire family, we cannot overstate our sincere gratitude to Steve and wholeheartedly recommend him.

Our grandson's savior

My wife and I are honored to let everyone know of the wonderful job that Mr. Palmer did for us. Without Steve's compassionate and diligent expertise we fear our grandson would still be in a home of alcohol abuse and domestic violence. He expertly guided us through the emergency guardianship to resc...ue our grandson then worked diligently to protect him with a 6 year minor guardianship. We are forever grateful to Steve.

Ms.

Steve was compassionate, professional, and thorough when handling several drug-related matters for my daughter. He was able to reach an agreement that was amenable to all parties. He is highly respected in the courts of Snohomish and Island County. Another remarkable and positive quality about Ste...ve is that he always returns phone calls. Always. We were very happy with his representation and will recommend his services to others.
