Excellent Representation
Karen guided me through a divorce and custody proceedings. It was an emotion and turbulent time. Karen was compassionate and dedicated. A true professional. Don't know what I would have done without her. Thank you, Karen.

OUTSTANDING!!!
I may have ended up living in a cardboard box without our daughter if I had not had Karen in my corner!! I really believe that!!! She is so smart, and really knows her way through the divorce and family law! She kept me on track and up to date with communication at all hours of the day or night. She ...

There are no words to best explain my gratitude
It can be very difficult to write a review for someone (Karen) when there isn’t enough words to express fully, how beyond grateful you are. I never expected to feel this way about an attorney. Much less an attorney who had to walk and fight alongside me the painful path of separation, divorce and cop...

straight shooter
Mrs Schweigert was a monumental help. In one hour she cleared up a ton of confusion on my custody case that i was trying to manage on my own. And even though pretty much everything she told me was really bad news, I felt like she was doing her best to help me in my situation. I really really wish I c...

You can choose a good lawyer or a great lawyer. Karen is the great laywer!
In a recent parenting plan and custody dispute, Karen represented the case fantastically as it was appealed to Superior Court. Karen communicated with me throughout the process and met at times to meet my schedule. She explained the court processes and made the entire situation less stressful. I high...
"I endorse this lawyer. Karen is brilliant, sweet and a wonderful advocate in the Courtroom. She's easy to work with as opposing counsel and always puts the children and clients first. I highly recommend and endorse Karen's ability in the courtroom!"
"I endorse this lawyer. Karen Schweigert served as a Custody Investigator and GAL in a custody case I handled out of Anchorage, Alaska, because one of the parents and the child lived in the Spokane area. Karen did an outstanding job in her role, identifying important parenting traits, strengths and weaknesses, in both parents, and particularly the mom's inability to foster and encourage a close relationship between the child and the other parent. The judge strongly identified with Karen's analysis, because it was consistent with his experience. My client, the dad, won custody based largely on Karen's investigation and testimony. And our state Supreme Court affirmed the trial judge's decision! I heartily recommend Ms. Schweigert in any child custody matter."
"Karen is extremely knowledgeable, professional and I absolutely would recommend her. I have seen her in court and she is an excellent advocate for her clients."
"Karen is a stand-out lawyer in Spokane for how hard she works for her clients and for the community. I would easily recommend her to anyone I cared about."
"I have known Karen since she was a law student. In fact, I was one of her professors! She is a dedicated, ethical attorney who has a heart for her clients and a commitment to helping others. She is diligent, hardworking, and is a reasonable and zealous advocate. I endorse her wholeheartedly. She's a great family law lawyer!"
"Karen is a smart, capable attorney who works incredibly hard for her clients. She is someone to whom I have regularly referred clients and someone I would consider hiring if I needed an attorney myself."
"Karen is an amazing attorney and is extremely dedicated to her clients. She has extensive trial experience and truly enjoys her career. Karen never fails to take the time to answer questions and is available to her not only her client but also to her peers. Karen is professional and knowledgeable and I am proud to be in the same field of expertise with Karen."
"I have known Karen for over 12 years. She is a dedicated and skilled family practitioner who fights very hard for clients. I refer clients to Ms. Schweigert with confidence."
"Karen is smart, direct, and incredibly efficient. She is a highly ethical lawyer who will be honest and compassionate. Lawyers like her elevate the profession."
