Best experience I've had with an attorney

Unfortunately in my lifetime I've made enough poor choices that I've come in contact with a handful of different attorneys in a few different fields that have represented me. Most have been fine, one or two I'd probably avoid in the future, and then David. David has just set the bar as high as one co...uld expect in his area of law. From the very beginning he spoke with knowledge on my topic and with a level of professionalism that is rare these days. He was able to differentiate his services from his competitions without bad mouthing them, another rare trait in this industry. He was honest with my situation and set realistic goals. He met all of them and exceeded my expectations on time and with the honesty to refund a few dollars that were left over when he accomplished what he said he would. A complete restoration of my firearm rights that MANY MANY attorneys had told me wasn't possible. If you have been told no by others please call David before accepting that answer. If he says he can't you're probably sunk but if there is ANY way it can legally be done, David is your man. David, thanks again for restoring my rights and allowing me a second opportunity I didn't think I'd ever get again. A job very well done indeed.

An expert in his field

Mr. Newman offered expert consultation and review of my firearms rights restoration case. I accepted a deferred dismissal in A 10 year old California DV case. While not barring me in California, Washington law prohibited me from possesing a firearm. This was a surprise to me, as I had purchased sever...al firearms in California. I researched Washington law and spok3 to three other attorneys. Another "google" attorney who supposedely specializes in this field heard the word California and basically refused my case and would not even let me speak. She said "it's a CA problem". Some specialist. Mr. Newman spoke with me, listened to my circumstances, and explained the process. He reviewed the CA case, researched my eligibility for restoration, and advised me the enitire way. He was available throughout the process and always provided the answers I was needed. Not just an expert in his field but, a true gentleman. And of course once reviewing my eligibility, delivered the results he promised. I was able to purchase a pistol legally. I would recommend Mr. Newman highly to anyone.

Gun rights restoration with special circumstnace

From the very first call to the completion of my firearm rights restoration, Mr. Newman exceeded my expectations of: communication, responsiveness, and professionalism. My case was not a normal firearms restoration case; I was original cited as a felon in possession of a firearm because my rights wer...e not restored and my lack of information on my current firearm status. This was very alarming considering that a felon in possession of a firearm has a mandatory five year sentence. I immediately got on the internet, started my research and called lawyers. The incident happened on Saturday, and I started calling lawyers on Monday. The responses I got to my case were across the board, from: “You’re pretty much screwed” to “You got nothing to worry about.” The later responses were reassuring; however, most did not come with a plan on how I should not worry. Then I called the Rainier Law Firm and spoke to Mr. David M. Newman, and he was courteous and listened to my case. He immediately recognized the potential severity of my situation and laid out a plan on how to alleviate my situation. I’m sure Mr. Newman had larger cases and with greater concern, but he made me feel that my case was his top priority, not only through communications, but through actions and consistent updates on my case status. His rates for my case were very reasonable, even before the unexpected refund! My experience with Mr. Newman has been exceptionally awesome, and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone in the same situation.

Restore Gun Right

Mr. David Newman is a superb attorney! He is an extremely insightful and knowledgeable attorney. Regardless of the complexity of the matter, he is someone I know will consider not only legal strategy, but guidance practicalities in providing advices and litigation options. I recommend Mr. Newma...n because he made the whole situation go as quick and painless as possible. He returned my calls and emails promptly and kept me informed of the status of my case. He made it easy for me to understand all aspects of my case and was able to get me the best results possible.
