As a real estate broker & land developer in Washington state, reputations are worth more than anything. When it was brought to my attention that some slanderous accusations and fabricated claims were being maliciously spread about me, I immediately retained Aric. That was a Thursday afternoon. No later than Monday morning, the problem was resolved. Money well spent. Aric is extremely intelligent, remarkably decisive and highly effective. His ability to handle this issue in such short order (over the weekend, mind you) was incredible. Hands down the best legal representation I've ever experienced. Furthermore, he's highly responsive and appropriately aggressive. He communicates in a way that's impossible to misinterpret, which I find to be very important. If you're looking for someone who's dedicated and capable of protecting you and your business interests, look no further.

Aric was a great help in getting my case dismissed. Not only did I find him to be extremely professional and knowledgeable, he was always very encouraging throughout the entire process. I'm glad he was on my side.
