Great lawyer

Drew and his team are very good at their job. As anybody knows it is hard to deal with L&I while you're trying to get the treatments in medical attention that you need to recover to get back to work. Drew and his team simplify this. We care legal is the only lawyer team I would recommend. They are th...e best.

Workman’s Comp Claim

I have worked with Drew and his team at We Care Legal for the past 2+ years. I had previously worked with another lawyer who wasn’t willing to hear me so I looked and looked until, thankfully, I stumbled upon Drew, by chance. We sat and had a detailed conversation about everything I had been through ...leading up to that point, why I believed I needed an attorney, what my goals were in what I believe I was “entitled” to or fighting for, and how far I was willing to go. Every single step of the way he was willing to answer any and all of my questions. He and his team have been so patient and diligent working side by side with me and they all put things in terms that are easy to digest- seeing that the legal world can be overwhelming and a bit scary. The entire process has been stressful, but far less stressful than I had encountered with the previous law team I had selected. I would absolutely recommend Drew and his team to any individual who is going through a work related injury with complications or in general. I am very driven, detail oriented, and rather stubborn once I’ve landed on a decision and Drew was ready to go as far as I was willing to go with information and support every single step of the way. His devotion to his craft and his ability to navigate tough emotions and relaying potentially tough information is superior. I never once felt like he didn’t have my back or was feeding me info just to settle and slug me off. I’m beyond appreciative that I found such a solid team and would absolutely recommend We Care Legal.

Drew and the We Care team are amazing!!!

Drew and Natalie have helped me so much. L&I shut down my claim when I was still having so many issues due to a work related injury. I had no idea what I was doing or how to handle the nightmare I was in. After contacting Drew my claim was reopened guided me through all I needed to do on my end and h...e handled the rest. I am in the process of getting the treatment and compensation I need thanks to Drew and the We Care team. I would highly recommend to anybody. Very professional, extremely easy to deal with and always answered any questions I had right away.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2023.

Suspension issued in WA, 2023

updated on 10/23/2023

This means the attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.

Drew’s comment:

“My suspension came from a 2012 case where I did not verify my client signed a fee agreement. Due to the nature of litigation, and Covid, I was not charged by the bar until 2020. In 2023, I agreed to a 60-day suspension to resolve this old mistake. Prior to the complaint I changed my practice, paid for client management software that expedites communication and helps verify every client signs an agreement. While I wish it hadn't occurred, I have learned from it, and I'm a better attorney for it.”
