Barry Davidon is the best lawyer in Washington.
Barry was prompt, honest and fair. He had lots of patience with me because I was handling things in between working 50 hours a week. I recommend him to anyone needing an honest, smart Lawyer who gets the job done in a very reasonable amount of time!

Great help, never charged
Had to go through a tough situation after a business failed. He walked me through the steps, advised me how to proceed, and then referred me to a colleague when what I needed fell outside of his area of expertise. Was never charged, even after the advice went well past the quoted 20 minute limit.

Highly Recommended
I am vice president and general counsel for a private lending company in Tacoma, WA. One of our borrowers filed for bankruptcy in the Eastern District. We wanted local counsel and were referred to Barry Davidson. Mr. Davidson provided exceptional service. He was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and an absolute pleasure to work with. Barry was able to secure a speedy relief from stay so that we could meet our foreclosure sale deadline. Thanks Barry! We highly recommend him and will use him again!

Excellent Bankruptcy Attorney
Attorney very knowledgeable in planning a course of action and very candid concerning the negative downside to various ideas. He will help you decide the best course to take by providing valuable, pertinent information.

Wise and seasoned counsel
I originally contacted Mr. Davidson with regards to a difficult issue with back taxes. Thanks to his firm, the dedicated attorneys and staff, we have filed the appropriate chapter. Where others were disinterested because of lack of experience or commitment, this attorney stood up and said "Let's get this taken care, we can help". I have retained this firm and having nothing but the highest of praise for Mr. Davidson Sr. and Jr.

Great Attorney, Couldn't have got through it without Barry.
Barry was a lifesaver. He helped me keep my head while going through a very difficult time. He was very efficient, he worked within the budget I had available and provided flawless advice and guidance. I would hire Barry again in a heartbeat.

Great attorney!
Barry has just finished up a very complex bankruptcy for me and I am so happy that he represented me. He is a great resource and sounding board while navigating a very difficult situation. Above all, he treated me as a man with a brand new future, not as a failed business. From the start he took a sincere interest in my situation and responded to my endless questions, many times after normal hours. His staff is top notch and I highly recommend his services.

Barry was terrific to work with. He helped us manage through a situation that almost resulted in a bankruptcy. With Barry's help we were able to avoid the bankruptcy and negotiate a go forward plan with our bank and other creditors.
