Courteous and knowledgeable with attention to detail
Mr Kendrick and staff represented me most effectively. They were all courteous and respectful, and ensured that I understood the process that I was engaged in. Thanks to Mr Kendrick's responsiveness and attention to detail, I received an outcome that I considered very favorable. I highly recommend their services.
If you are convicted of a first offense within seven years, you can expect a minimum of one or two days in jail, approximately $900.00 to $1,200.00 minimum fine and costs, and usually 90 days to one-year license suspension.
If you are arrested for any crime you should immediately tell the arresting officer that you want to consult with an attorney. You have the right to consult with an attorney of your own choosing before answering any questions.
Traffic infractions can be especially serious for those with a CDL. If you receive a traffic infraction in the City of Yakima, Kendrick and Malane will fight to keep it off of your record.
Kip Kendrick grew up in Yakima, Washington in a home in which his parents insisted that each child become at least bilingual. After graduating from high school, he lived for a year in Guadalajara, Mexico to improve his Spanish.

Class and professionalism
Mr. Kendrick represented me on a complex case involving prescribed medicine. Mr. Kendrick and his team were compassionate knowledgeable, professional and we were able to get results through plea that were better than expected. I am very grateful for Kip and his team, whom helped my family and I through a difficult time.

Making an unpleasant experience less of a burden.
Mr. Kendrick was a great legal representative to have on my side while dealing with my case. The staff and the para-legals were easy to talk to, helped me start and understand my case and trial. Mr. Kendrick explained my situation in a professional and helpful manner to help me understand what was going to happen and the process of what was going to occur. Thanks to Mr. Kendrick and his staff, I was able to have my legal obligations reduced and breathe a sigh of relief. Would highly recommend to anyone.

FREE CONSULT DONE!
I got a failure to yield and was worried because I am in a driving position. Finding a traffic ticket lawyer seemed to be hard to do in Yakima. I am sure most defense attorneys do it, but most seemed to be for more serious criminal non traffic offenses like robbery or murder. I stumbled across a few and wasn't impressed with most because of not returning calls, and/ or having to make an appointment. I work 50+hr weeks and only get one half day a week. When I called Kendrick and Malone Office, the receptionist was immediately able to assist me with my many questions. I was also invited to come in same day for free consult. When I arrived, the staff was patient with me while I was with my child and the paralegal was great! She answered a ton of my questions, told me what was realistic, and armed me with so much info, that I even felt confident I might have contested on my own or more likely, defer to avoid paying for representation. I really do appreciate the professionalism of this office; they really made me feel they were on my side and not out to get my money. Will definitely hire!
