Excellent and competent service

I needed quick turnaround on health care power of attorney documents. Steve was accommodating as to schedule, personable in his approach, and competent and thorough in the work requested. The fee was reasonable and fair.

Happy Client

Steve is a wonderful and caring attorney. He truly listens to his clients and tells his clients the truth - even if it is something his client doesn't want to hear. I will work with Steve again and I will recommend him to everyone I know.

Mr. Wee took 5000.00

We hired Wee to manage a family law case. He took and took and took our money and we have nothing to show for it as he quit on us the day before a hearing. I have time lines and e-mails that I had to produce to try to get him to make corrections to things that he said and did. I am going to file a re...port with the WA Bar Assoc. to try to get some of my wasted money back. DO NOT HIRE HIM! He did not track our case well. He received information from me in a timely manner and did not file all the paperwork correctly. He lied to us about a case. Said that the hearing was off the table and only after I contacted his office daily via e-mail and phone calls that one week later he said "oh...no you need to pay the other lawyer $250.00 in fees for him to drop that hearing".

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
