Knowledgeable, ethical, and organized practice

Spencer is very knowledgeable of the law, the judges ruling patterns, and HE CARES about the kids. He’s an aggressive attorney that will fight hard for what is right and he will not be afraid to call his clients out if they are being unreasonable. Spencer took on my case when nobody else would becaus...e it was a mess. When watching his first court hearing, I knew within 30 seconds we were going to win. He went in strong, had studied my case thoroughly going back 7 years. He remembered pertinent details and he represented my son in that court room that day. He did an incredible job. Joanne, his right hand is just as incredible. She remembers details, she’s prompt to respond and overall just above and beyond professional. I highly recommend this duo for high conflict custody situations. They will handle your case with care, integrity, and exceptional knowledge.

Thoughtful, intelligent, caring team when I needed them most

I hired Spencer and Joanne during my divorce and they were amazing! It was not an easy time at all, and they helped me navigate the process, manage my expectations, help me to be patient, and eventually get the best outcome available to me. Spencer had to talk me off of a few proverbial cliffs and ...it was clear he was always in my court, looking out for my best interest and that of my children. I have since recommended him to many needing family attorneys. I have also used him for estate issues, wills and development of trusts and he has also been extremely helpful and easy to work with, 5 stars for sure!!!

Mr Harrington and his team are the best!

I live in Wenatchee, Wa and hired Mr. Harrington after my ex- husband was allowed temporary custody of my 6 year old son because the courts here allowed it due to a bogus CPS investigation. Before hiring Mr. Harrington i had to also obtain a criminial attorney in Wenatchee because the detective that ...the CPS intevestigator brought along with her charged me with two counts of 2nd degree assualt. I also had a court appointed attorney in juvenile court because CPS filed a depenedency against me. If it weren't for Mr. Harrington and his team I would currently be in a dependency and without my son. But thankfully I found Mr. Harrington and his amazing assistant Joanne. After working with the other two attorneys here in Wenatchee and then hiring Mr. Harrington and Joanne, it was like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders. When i called someone was their to answer my questions, when i sent an email, i always got a propt response back from Joanne telling me what to do or what to expect. Not only did Mr. Harrington get my son back after months of not having him home, he also just on his own to protect me and my son got CPS off my back when after obtaining my custody back in court, CPS tried to say they got a intake regarding Lincoln County ( this is where court took place) and now they had to do a safety assessment on me and have a investigation open for 45 days. After Mr. Harrington sent two letters they backed off and there was no safety assessment done. And from now on if they want to ask me anything they have to go through him. Cant say enough about this attorney and his assistant Joanne. One top notch team. Simple the best!

Excellent help.

My only issue was they didn't charge $10/hour ;p. Great communication, and they got me exactly what I asked for, which was help in protecting my daughter. Thank you.
