I would highly recommend Julie! She is very experienced and more than fair pricing. Julie helped me with Unemployment claim and also was very considerate when I was venting my frustrations. A true hidden gem for the Puget Sound area because she will go above and beyond for her clients.
"Julie Oberbillig has proven herself to me twice as having both a level head and a clear understanding of the highly complicated issues involved in employment law. This area of practice is one of the more difficult. Julie has evidenced skill."
"Julie was compassionate with her client, and she wrote and advocated very persuasively. I wish more lawyers behaved as professionally as Julie."
"I endorse Julie Oberbillig without reservation. I have found her to be trustworthy, ethical, and expertly knowledgeable in the law."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have not seen another lawyer who takes as seriously her preparation for a case. She listens closely, fully understands the client's objective, and puts her entire self into the case. She is clear, precise, detailed, confident, and stands out against any lawyer. She is very respectful and professional. She is a real person who will use real language with the client, and she will never take a course of action that is not directly in line with the client's goals and interests. Excellent lawyer."
"An extremely talented and well respected attorney in the legal community, I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a lawyer who knows the law and truly cares about protecting the rights of her clients and getting them the most favorable result possible."
"I previously worked with Ms. Oberbillig at the Department of Assigned Counsel. I was impressed with her courtroom demeanor, her professionalism, her knowledge of the law and most of all her zealous advocacy for her clients. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer.This lawyer posts very concise and well thought out answers on Avvo. She seems to have a very high level of legal knowledge and expertise."
