Clear thinking/straightforward help

I was caught between the regulations of Washington State, my mother's life insurance company, and an old Durable Power of Attorney. I had been working with these entities for 2 months. No solution was in sight. I came to Crystal for help. She reviewed the issues raised by each involved institutio...n and laid out 3 options for securing the life insurance surrender my mother needed to pay for her care. The first worked well and within 2 weeks my mother's life insurance funds were released. It was a relief for me to know that had our first approach failed, Crystal had laid out two other options. This was practical, do-able advice and it made all the difference.

Great attorney!

Crystal and her assistant Cyndi were both amazing in untangling a rather tangled estate of my Fathers. Crystal is patient and kind, and worked hard to make it so our wishes, as well as my fathers, were fulfilled! I would highly recommend her!

She helped me complete the probate process on my father's estate quickly; Her and her staff were easy to deal with and made a difficult process/situation seem easier.

Tenacious and Straight Forward

I sought out Crystal a few years ago. At that time she had actually shared information that i might be able solve the issue i was having by contacting a non profit group. I was impressed with this. I did, they tried but about a year later it still wasn't panning out. I sought Crystal out again as... I felt she was honest, thorough and above all transparent about my situation to me. I hired her, we have been working together and I am in the end stretch of my case. Two years into my case my husband was killed and it really caused things to go up in the air. Not only did Crystal and Trena her assistant manage to catch everything as it fell but put it as well together as it could go with a huge piece missing. They were consequently hired by me for his probate as they knew me and the issues i was already facing. Again, she is extremely tenacious and very detail oriented. I appreciated all of her hard work beyond what I expected. I strongly recommend Beaty Hatch, PC where Crystal Lewis is for any of the above listed specialties. Thank you
