The Absolute Best

Hiring Rob Cossey was the best thing I could have done in my terrible legal situation. I was violently assaulted and wrongfully accused of being the assailant in early 2023. I was charged with second degree DV assault with strangulation. This was a horrific ordeal for myself and my family. The entire... charge was DISMISSED after 5 months because he successfully was able to prove that I was not the assailant, I was the victim. He is obviously very well respected in the legal community. As you can imagine, in the aftermath of being assaulted, I was not in the best place, but he communicated with me so well. He was responsive, honest, up front, but also assuring and grounding. He even made me laugh multiple times and I appreciated that. His wife Shirley was also just such a sweetheart and added such a good balance to their partnership in representing me. Multiple times they went out of their way to support me and assure me. Rob and Shirley believed in me the entire time, which meant the world, and they worked as quickly as the system would allow them to in order to resolve the situation. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome. Not only did they dismiss the charge, the prosecution recognized I was not the assailant, which meant a lot for me to know. I would recommend Rob to anyone and am FOREVER so grateful to him and Shirley and the rest of the office for EVERYTHING. Shout out to Kelly, as well, for being a firecracker and representing me in the PO portion of all of this. She was also just fantastic. Everyone in the office was so kind to me, treated me with dignity, and worked hard to achieve the best possible outcome!! A million thanks to them and a huge recommendation to anyone looking for legal representation (specifically in my case a criminal defense attorney and protection order representation).

CLIENT-FOCUSED!

Rob is an ethical, honest and extremely knowledgeable attorney. In addition, his long career has created and nurtured many relationships with professionals in the Washington legal system where he is highly respected. During my two recent very hurtful legal cases, first for a completely falsified ...restraining order by my loved one, followed by my family law case, I found Rob and his staff truly listen to you to get a full understanding of what your case entails, including the backgrounds of those involved. Rob stays current on the happenings of your case, reads all emails and documents in a timely manner and is very responsive. They guide you along the way; you never feel ignored or put on the backburner. My previous divorce experience a few years ago was disastrous as it became apparent the only goal of attorneys on both sides was to prolong the case, increasing their income while draining their clients of time and money. So I much appreciated Rob and staff lessening the financial and emotional stress involved by zeroing in on the truth, impressive representation at trial and successful efforts to achieve the best possible outcome (the Restraining Order was denied and my family law case was satisfactorily settled out of court). My confidence in Rob and his staff to not only be diligent, but to put me and my case first never wavered. I sincerely enjoyed working with Rob (and attorneys Kelly and Jennifer) as well as Estie and everyone else I encountered at Cossey Law. They are competent, friendly, genuinely nice people who make a painful experience so much more bearable!

Hired as divorce attorney

We hired Mr Cossey to represent us in a divorce case & he was always professional,told us up front what to expect & was at trial when needed. He was fair & returned calls in a timely manner along with his team. Would hire him in the future again if needed.

Think twice

I hired Rob Cossey based off of his many years of law in Spokane. A mistake I will not make again. I hired this office, to represent me in a contempt and child support hearing. Not only was the ball was dropped many ways, but down the road I ask for a form that should have already been supplied to me..., and I'm told i have to pay 200 dollars up front to have it pulled from storage in a different city??? WTH??? If you want to lose time with your children and have your support increased beyond your means. Or to be talked to like a child when you raise concerns about how your case is managed or the shady ways your being charged, Hire this office. They will oblige.

Excellent. A+

Very good representation in my case. Responded to email and phone calls quickly. Answered my questions every step of the way, told me what I was doing right and what I was doing wrong. Preserved my interests, gave me options regarding how to proceed and worked WITH me. I would (and I HAVE) recommend ...Mr. Cossey. Excellent attorney.
