Andrea M Poplawski

I don't really know where to start, with how extremely impressed I was with Mrs. Poplawski. She handled, managed and out smarted the other side during my 2 year child custody battle, like she was General Patton in WWII. Her knowledge of the Washington state law is second to none, and her no fear att...itude to litigate in the courtroom is a talent & specialty, I feel she has over any other family law attorney, especially the previous 2 attorneys I had to fire from my case. I came into this litigation with a positive and optimistic attitude that I would get the proper representation I deserved, and Mrs. Poplawski far exceeded my expectations, to the point I have referred anyone I know, male or female to go see her first before their spouse does. My final outcome was that I received the parenting plan I wanted, I now see my 2 amazing kids 50% of the time, I get to have holidays and can now travel with them and share life experiences I would of missed out doing with them, I believe if I did not hire aggressive, hardworking and skillful representation finally on my third and final attorney. I hope I never need another family law attorney again but I know without a doubt if I do I will hire Mrs. Poplawski. She is the definition of a Professional, and will not back down to any opposing attorney. I think sometimes she feels the world is against her after reading her bio. about the challenges and obstacles she dealt with during becoming an attorney, but I think she LOVES THE ODDS!!!

Andrea is not only an amazing person, she is an outstanding attorney. Competent, Caring, Fair and seeking only to provide you the best advise and representation-When she advertise "bring your tough cases" to her-well that's not just a catch phrase. I have first hand knowledge of her intelligence an...d attention to detail which no doubt contributed to her being named Best Lawyer 2013. When I have family and friends that need legal assistance, I send them to Andrea. I know that she will take good care of them, because she has and continues to fight for me and my family. When things can be settled, we settle- when we have to go the distance- she is there. In my case of an abusive ex- I had lost my voice, my ability to stand up and fight for myself and my child. Andrea help me no only to articulate to the court the truth but in this three years- I was able to find my voice once again and stand up to the agggresive nature of my ex. Time has past and all the attacks he sends still affect me, but I am stronger and able to speak for myself -unafraid because I know that Andrea is there to help mediate the blow from him and that I am protected by legal avenues to make things right. I original found Andrea as an attorney because of her background as a guardian ad leim and wanted not what was best for me or him- but for our child. She has provided that remarkable service, because ultimately- it is about the child or the children involved. No matter how much I wish we could agree on one thing, Andrea has navigated through rough waters with me for the past three years. He has had to hire 3 or 4 attorneys to inlcude a team from Seattle to keep up with Andrea. No matter how many attorneys he has had, I only needed Andrea revealing the truth in court .

The most important thing about Andrea is that she is in a league of her own. Watching her in court is amazing. She is so brilliant and able to tell me story in a way I never could. She left my wife's attorney in the dust! She knew the facts of my case as well as I knew them. She talked about differen...t laws and wove it all together. Needless to say I did well in court. She cuts to the chase and is a straight shooter. She gives you the good and the bad and lays it all in the line for you. I really felt like she had my back the whole time.

I was referred to Andrea by another attorney. They told me she is the best in town. She is the only aggressive female family law attorney in Spokane who is also willing to take on the tough cases no one else wants. I can honestly say that I was very happy she was my attorney and not my wife's. I ende...d up with a shared parenting plan for my two small children and I didn't end up giving my wife the shirt of my back so to speak like most of my other friends have had to because their attorneys weren't willing to go the extra mile for them. I definitely recommend her to anyone in a nasty family law court battle.
