also known as Schroader Law, PLLC
I grew up here in Tacoma, and came back after my military service and law school to practice in my home town. I spent the last two years of law school working full time, while taking classes, as a legal intern so that I could hit the ground running for my clients from day 1. When I'm not in the office, or in court, I'm either training for my next Tough Mudder run, practicing my guitar (believe me, I need the practice), or enjoying time with my friends and family.

Excellence
I tagged Dennis to help with a DUI case for a family member. Thanks to his diligence and thorough research of the facts of the case, he obtained a result that exceeded all expectations.

Awesome Lawyer
I used Dennis is a Family Law court case and he was beyond amazing! Both him and his Paralegal always went above and beyond to explain what was needed by me and to make sure I understood everything. I never once doubted his judgement on anything and we worked together and hard to get me exactly what ...

Great Work! - Dissolution of Marriage and Custody
I hired Dennis a few months before I was scheduled to be in trial because I was having a hard time getting a hold of my previous attorney. Dennis is easy to talk to and pays close attention to detail; he was upfront and realistic about the possible outcomes that could've come with new counsel so clos...

Beware - Very Bad Attorney
Mr. Schroader, was sanctioned by the Superior Court Judge, at my court hearing in the amount of $1,125.00, for Failure to Appear or make alternate arraignments, for my August 12, 2016, hearing. I retained Mr. Schroader, Jr., on August 9, 2016, for my Superior Court hearing, at the Regional Justice C...
I am very sorry that your case did not turn out the way you had hoped, but you have taken your complaint to the Bar, and they have ruled that I did not behave unethically in any way. On your request for reconsideration, they held the same. As to not being at the first hearing, I told you when you retained me that I had a scheduling conflict, and that I would send another attorney in my place to set the hearing over.. The attorney I contacted to cover the hearing did not appear due to a misunderstanding on his part. In situations like that, it is not uncommon for the court to award attorney's fees to the other party; court's have ruled in favor of my clients for the same reasons a number of times. In your case, I paid the fees ordered by the court, and it had absolutely no effect on the outcome of your case.
