highly competent attorney that truly cares about people and what is right

I was getting nowhere trying to fight my case in the system myself. Workers comp and social security. Then came rondi. She is very knowledgeable in all sides of the system. She is very sweet and personable and truly cares about the right thing but she also met any controversy during my case head on and with complete confidence. Definitely not afraid to fight for you and what is right. She always had my back and gave me peace of mind. Her characteristics I tend to think of her as a true friend that just so happens to be my atty as well. I highly recommend her.

She is a great lawyer. I highly recommend her!

I have hired Rondi Thorp on five different occasions for legal problems. She knows the law and has fought hard to get me the benefits me and my family need. She helped me get hearing aids, social security disability, and has fought hard keeping my worker's comp benefits going and fighting for my medical treatment. She answers my calls and explains things to me. I appreciate her willingness to fight my employer who likes to fight over every penny. She never backs down! She is smart, tough and a true advocate for the injured. I would hire her again and again. . .and have! She is simply the best workers comp attorney in Washington. I don't know what I would have done without her.
