Calm, Understanding, effective, overall good lawyer and guy
Mr. Lucenko helped my family through a rough and emotional case. He was always kind and understanding when out stress and anxiety peaked. When in front of the judge he was nothing less than impressive. He balanced law, common sense, and emotional arguments incredibly well. He talks fast so all parts ...

Unprofessional, Unresponsive, Unreliable
I would not recommend Lenny Lucenko. In my experience, he seemed more invested in staying on friendly terms with opposing counsel than in representing his client. Communication was poor: calls went unreturned, questions brushed off, meetings missed without explanation. When he did engage, it often...

bullying harrassment and flying monkey for his sick client
not having an attorney during a divorce should not be met with bullying and threats from his loud clueless attorney. My Ex just paid him to take his place, hide his fraud, hide the truth, he allowed his client to commit perjury multiple times and keep me without a penny. He allowed his client to play...

My Personal Experience
Representing me in my divorce, it became obvious Mr. Lucenko accepted my former husband's false allegations as truth. My spouse had not worked 24 of our 29 year marriage and strove to fulfill years of threats that I would walk away in a divorce “without a dime". It was a scorch earth strategy full...
"Lenny has a great reputation in the legal community and is an experienced attorney. I endorse this lawyer."
"I worked with Lenny on a matter in Olympia. Because I do not practice regularly in Thurston County, Lenny was extremely helpful. He has great working knowledge of the judges and the local legal system. His insight was invaluable in helping me present my case. I highly recommend him."
"Lenny successfully negotiated with a tough prosecutor to get his client into Veterans Court so that client could maintain a clean record. Subsequently, he's assisted clients-in-common in their Family Court matters and my clients always say he fights for them and makes a huge difference in their cases. I highly endorse his work."
"Lenny brings a real sense of perspective to the hardest cases. He has a reputation for working collegially with opposing attorneys which makes him more likely to settle cases for his clients. But having tried many difficult cases in the areas of criminal and family law he is not hesitant about trying a case when it does not settle."
"Not every lawyer is a trial lawyer. Lenny is a seasoned trial lawyer in both criminal and family law matters. He is highly ethical and very dedicated to his clients."
"Lenny has extensive trial experience both in criminal law and Family law. He also serves as a Judge Pro Tem in Thurston County District Court which provides him with a valuable perspective on the presentation of a case. He makes it a point to be promptly available when his clients call appreciating that dealing with divorce and child custody issues can be very difficult."
"I endorse Lenny Lucenko. Lenny has practiced in Olympia since 2002, primarily as a member of our firm's outstanding family law team. His legal career started in Florida for five years as a public defender where he gained considerable trial experience."
"Although Lenny's practice is primarily focused on all aspects of Family Law, he came to our firm after a period of years working as a public defender in another state. As a result, Lenny's courtroom experience is significant, and a real asset to his clients. In addition to his busy family law practice, Lenny also helps existing clients (and also new clients) with criminal misdemeanor defense. Lenny is a very capable and compassionate advocate."
"Lenny continually strives to provide a high-quality level of representation for his clients. He is a great asset to Connolly Tacon & Meserve as well as the community."
"Lenny works hard to achieve good results for his clients. He is smart and always well-prepared. A former public defender, he has extensive courtroom experience which he utilizes to promote his clients' positions before the bench. "
