Great Guy!!!

Ryan helped me in more ways than one. I was in a messy situation with multiple charges in different court houses. I was facing time. He helped me change my life, gave me the proper guidance and his guidance worked. I was so buried in cases and Ryan Anderson knows the system through and through. He kn...ows all the court officials as well which completely makes a difference. Not only did he keep me out of jail on multiple duis, and assaults he coached me through it all. If you have some tough cases reach out to a tough attourney like Ryan Anderson.

LIFE after drugs

Mr. Anderson is a very honest attorney and genuinely cares for his clients. I was looking at several years of jail time with drug charges hanging over my head. He guided me and kept getting me chances after chances with Drug Court after several mistakes I kept making. He was diligent, advocated for m...y success and truly believed in me as a person. With his help, I was able to graduated Drug Court and I can say my life has completely changed for the better. I am so grateful that I choose Mr. Anderson through my legal process. He went above and beyond for me. I felt like he was very invested in my case and actually cared how it would affect me and my family. Truly a blessing and really can not thank him enough. I highly recommend his services as it is hard to find someone who see's you for who you are and not your criminal offense.

It was the "Bottom of the Ninth"...

And that was the game!! I say that because in my case, it took us (Mr. Anderson as my lawyer and myself) nine appearances in court until there was a fair agreement reached and we were done! Yet, Mr. Anderson never complained, got lazy, frustrated, or dismissed me once during that time. Ryan kept fig...hting for me and doing right by me with my case, and more importantly, did not give up on me even when many times I wanted to because I was so furious and overwhelmed. Ryan kept me out of jail, had two seperate cases completely dismissed due to erroneous reports and many errors by a certain PD. Mr. Anderson definitely put in some work, was vigilant with my case, and yet with that workload alone, I don't feel he ripped me off or tried to overcharge me as most lawyers try to and have that reputation to do so. To be honest, I think Ryan probably did more work than what he was paid for but that's just me. Mr. Anderson was also very patient, respectful, considerate, and empathetic of my circumstances at that time and worked out a payment timeline which really helped me in that department as well. Lastly, I will say this, open communication, trust, and respect are paramount in any kind of relationship, especially in a working/professional type relationship like between client/attorney, and Ryan certainly filled those traits. I highly recommend Ryan, he will not disappoint, just follow his instructions on what's best for you and your case, and you're golden. I would 100% hire Mr. Anderson again but God forbid I don't ever again have to.

The Best Lawyer

I've never been in legal troubles before and I was so afraid throughout the entire process, but Ryan was confident and helped me feel safe and secure in my case. He also guided me through everything that could happen; good or bad. HE DID AN AMAZING JOB and I'm completely happy that the result was "...DISMISSED". (No charges/Clean record) I highly recommend Ryan for legal issues. He is very professional 100/100! (Spanish review) Nunca antes había estado en problemas legales y tenía mucho miedo durante todo el proceso, pero Ryan siempre tuvo confianza y me ayudó a sentirme seguro en mi caso. También me guió a través de todo lo que podría suceder, sea bueno o no. HIZO UN TRABAJO INCREÍBLE y estoy completamente feliz porque el resultado fue "DESCARTADO". (No cargos/record limpio) Recomiendo ampliamente a Ryan para problemas legales.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"What I’ve learned in over a decade of legal practice is that the very best attorneys are those who genuinely care about people and approach problems foremost from a place of understanding and empathy. Ryan is all about that, and that’s why I trust him to take care of my clients. Ryan is known for his abilities as a criminal defense attorney: he knows what he’s doing; he understands the people involved; and he is an expert when it comes to navigating the complexities of the criminal justice system. But, what’s most important is that he possesses a natural empathy for others and sees the good in people. It’s why he truly cares for his clients, their families, their future, and their situation. I know from speaking to my own clients that Ryan takes time to get to know his on a personal level; that’s valuable when advocating for someone in the face of a serious legal issue. Ryan is the criminal defense attorney I recommend because he’s not only an excellent attorney, he's a good person."

"I've been practicing for 20 years and have known Ryan for about the last 6 or 7 years. He's a natural courtroom lawyer with all the charisma, style, class, and poise to present a winning case even with the most difficult facts. He has a real passion for his job and puts it all on the table when defending a client. Ryan has been working in Tacoma for years as a criminal defense attorney. He knows the players and can navigate the system blindfolded. I've referred many clients to Ryan, all of whom later thanked me for sending them his way."
