Wonderful Person and Excellent Staff!

This was a very pleasant experience even though our situation was less than. Andrea was very straightforward with her advice, her plan of action, and predicted outcome. She and her assistant, Kristi Flyg, were always on top of communications with me every step of the way. I had no worries regarding... our very stressful situation, once Andrea was on board. She and her team were transparent with me regarding cost, time and outcome throughout the entire case and were always friendly to talk to. I truly felt that someone was not only on my side, but sticking up for me and being my voice when I had none. Andrea came highly recommended and absolutely overshot my expectations. I will actually miss communicating with her and Kristi but am VERY pleased our case is closed; and on very good terms. If you need an honest, hardworking, dedicated attorney then you NEED Andrea Clare! You won't be disappointed and you'll feel the stress lift off your shoulders as soon as you hire her.

Andrea handled a case that was complicated by any legal standards...

I endorse and highly recommend Andrea Clare. Andrea handled a case that was complicated by any legal standards with jurisdiction in two states and four legal teams involved. Andrea took the lead with our legal team and she was organized, efficient, extremely competent, and had an excellent rapport w...ith everyone involved. Her written and verbal communication skills are excellent but, most importantly, she handled the case with passion , care and empathy for what we were going through. The case lasted for nearly two years and during the entire time Andrea was on top of every twist and turn that I case like our can take.

My 1st Choice for a lawyer in Tri-Cities!

Always professional. Very respectable. Andrea is comfortably confident in the court room. She is down to earth and to the point. Does her homework. I felt informed. I trust her. She is honest and I would recommend her to everyone I know.
