Excellent for Family Law!

Celeste worked with me to navigate a revised parenting plan and resolve child support/visitation issues. She has an income based payment scale which made it very manageable for a single mom of two. She was available to meet in person but I was able to do the vast majority of business via phone and em...ail, which made things really easy. There were times I handed things on my own and times I needed a lot of advice and she was available to take phone calls and walk me through the process. She was very knowledge about how to handle custody issues when the other party is out of state and was very good about explaining the wording of the documents and what kind of language we needed to use in order to protect my kids best interest. If you are looking for someone to work with who understands Washington law and is a great communicator, I highly recommend her!

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.
