Trustworthy and Knowledgeable
Mr. Wallis handled my case in a very professional and efficient manner. He got my case dismissed and saved me thousands of dollars in court fines. Due to his representation, I have been able to move on with my life and put this nightmare behind me.

H. Gary Wallis's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have been opposing counsel in a case with Mr. Wallis and I also practice in the same community he does. Mr. Wallis is a highly experienced attorney who is skilled at settlement negotiation as well as litigation. He is a worthy adversary who fights hard for his clients' best interests. I know him to be honest and straight forward and his JAG background serves him well -- he always keeps his cool."

Experience
Professional misconduct
This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2000.
Reprimand issued in WA, 2000
updated on 02/18/2011This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
H.’s comment:
“My partner improperly used funds from our Trust Account without my knowledge. I personally replaced the funds which he had taken. The Bar Assoication reprimanded me for failure to properly supervise my partner even though he was the Senior Partner.”
