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 fe...w 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!
