About

Forrest Wagner grew up in Aberdeen, WA and got his undergraduate degree at Whitman College, where he graduated Cum Laude in 1983.  For his legal education, he went back east to historic Lexington Virginia where he attended Washington and Lee University, eventually becoming class president and Moot Court semi-finalist and team qualifier. He has been practicing in Olympia for the past 32 years, emphasizing family law but also remaining active in the area of criminal defense. Forrest has presented at several CLE seminars and has written on family law subjects, including "The ABC's of Child Support" presented as part of a CLE seminar and "Defending Your Family Law Client Against Allegations of Sexual Abuse", presented as part of the 1995 Family Law Midyear.  He has finished a book, "Winning the Divorce Game in Washington", which is not yet published but which will be available soon online. For several years Forrest also taught Family Law and Business Law at South Puget Sound Community College. Forrest has been a mentor at the Thurston County Volunteer Legal Clinic for the last two years and occasionally presents CLE's at the Volunteer Legal Clinic.

Forrest has been an incredible asset during a seemingly unending and wholly unpleasant divorce and custody battle. His knowledge of the law and how the system works is unparalleled. He is trustworthy and hardworking and has gone above and beyond for my case over the years. I’m very grateful to have had him on my side.

In a brutally messy and difficult divorce, you couldn’t hope for better council! His way with the written and spoken word can’t be matched. His ability to strategize and win the long game is what really sets him apart! I had to go in front of a judge numerous times...and his opponent never had a chance, and although no one can win every time...we did!! As nasty as my ex’s attorney was...I never would have made it out the other side, while still having custody of my kids without Forrest representing me! Thank you!!

Well, after having to fire my first lawyer in my divorce case Forrest was a breath of fresh air. He was easy to talk with and he gets the job done. He also has a top notch assistant too and that also make the whole experience a little better. Divorces are a horrible thing to go through. It was very helpful to have Forrest on my side smoothing the waters as much as he could. My only complaint was the cost but I'm sure there is no such thing as a discount lawyer and as most things go, you get what you pay for.

Forrest works harder than almost anyone else I’ve ever met. He always made me feel like my case was his highest priority, and showed me that just because the opposing counsel was busy mud-slinging and being downright nasty, he could persevere by acting with integrity - and he did! Don’t get me wrong, Forrest is a lion when you need him to be, but i was continually impressed by commitment to honesty, respect and professionalism. Forrest guided me through the most stressful and difficult two years of my life, and because of him every single thing that mattered to me went in our favor. I could not imagine putting such important matters in anyone else’s hands. I will forever be grateful to Forrest and his team (Dawn) for all they’ve done- and there’s no one else i would recommend higher.

Forrest helped me navigate a divorce, which even though relatively amicable and uncontested, is a *huge* and lengthy bureaucratic process which could have gone sideways several times. He presented himself very forthrightly, asked very thoughtful and cogent questions, and made very sure I was both hearing and understanding his answers and the information I needed as we moved through the process, from hiring/retaining his practice, through initial response to the petition for dissolution, and all the way through finalizing negotiated agreements and asset divisions. He and his paralegal were as responsive as the situation allowed, and if I needed urgent information or to be talked down from a stressful point in the negotiations, they were extremely responsive. Let's face it, few of us are seasoned professionals when it comes to dissolving a long-term relationship as cleanly as possible. Forrest understands that, and he is more than able and willing to continue discussion until the client is satisfied and agreed to a next course of action. When you get down to it, that's really about all you can realistically hope for in such an unfamiliar situation. From an administrative point of view, I was very pleased with the accounting and consistency of how my retainer was charged and for what, and I feel that I absolutely got my money's worth throughout the process. Take the time, listen to him, and make your decisions. He supports you and will make sure you see things clearly, even when you don't necessarily want to participate. While I hope I won't need Forrest's services again, I highly recommend him and will retain his contact information should I need a lawyer in the Great NorthWet again.

Forrest Wagner has represented me a handful of times for a family law case, after first being hired in 2009. I highly recommend him. He has always been nothing but professional and fair while handling my case. He comes across as down to earth and approachable, and is quite smart and savvy. Mr Wagner comes to court prepared and ready to fight for you interests. For me, his results are a testament to his skill as an Attorney. One of the Olympia areas best for family law representation.

From day one Forrest was helpful and kind. He has been my advocate in what was the longest two years of my life. He has a good reputation with the court and that really showed up every time we had to go. I am very thankful for all of his help and insight and for the results.

In a brutally messy and difficult divorce, you couldn’t hope for better council! His way with the written and spoken word can’t be matched. His ability to strategize and win the long game is what really sets him apart! I had to go in front of a judge numerous times...and his opponent never had a chance, and although no one can win every time...we did!! As nasty as my ex’s attorney was...I never would have made it out the other side, while still having custody of my kids without Forrest representing me! Thank you!!

Well, after having to fire my first lawyer in my divorce case Forrest was a breath of fresh air. He was easy to talk with and he gets the job done. He also has a top notch assistant too and that also make the whole experience a little better. Divorces are a horrible thing to go through. It was very helpful to have Forrest on my side smoothing the waters as much as he could. My only complaint was the cost but I'm sure there is no such thing as a discount lawyer and as most things go, you get what you pay for.

Forrest works harder than almost anyone else I’ve ever met. He always made me feel like my case was his highest priority, and showed me that just because the opposing counsel was busy mud-slinging and being downright nasty, he could persevere by acting with integrity - and he did! Don’t get me wrong, Forrest is a lion when you need him to be, but i was continually impressed by commitment to honesty, respect and professionalism. Forrest guided me through the most stressful and difficult two years of my life, and because of him every single thing that mattered to me went in our favor. I could not imagine putting such important matters in anyone else’s hands. I will forever be grateful to Forrest and his team (Dawn) for all they’ve done- and there’s no one else i would recommend higher.

Forrest helped me navigate a divorce, which even though relatively amicable and uncontested, is a *huge* and lengthy bureaucratic process which could have gone sideways several times. He presented himself very forthrightly, asked very thoughtful and cogent questions, and made very sure I was both hearing and understanding his answers and the information I needed as we moved through the process, from hiring/retaining his practice, through initial response to the petition for dissolution, and all the way through finalizing negotiated agreements and asset divisions. He and his paralegal were as responsive as the situation allowed, and if I needed urgent information or to be talked down from a stressful point in the negotiations, they were extremely responsive. Let's face it, few of us are seasoned professionals when it comes to dissolving a long-term relationship as cleanly as possible. Forrest understands that, and he is more than able and willing to continue discussion until the client is satisfied and agreed to a next course of action. When you get down to it, that's really about all you can realistically hope for in such an unfamiliar situation. From an administrative point of view, I was very pleased with the accounting and consistency of how my retainer was charged and for what, and I feel that I absolutely got my money's worth throughout the process. Take the time, listen to him, and make your decisions. He supports you and will make sure you see things clearly, even when you don't necessarily want to participate. While I hope I won't need Forrest's services again, I highly recommend him and will retain his contact information should I need a lawyer in the Great NorthWet again.

Forrest Wagner has represented me a handful of times for a family law case, after first being hired in 2009. I highly recommend him. He has always been nothing but professional and fair while handling my case. He comes across as down to earth and approachable, and is quite smart and savvy. Mr Wagner comes to court prepared and ready to fight for you interests. For me, his results are a testament to his skill as an Attorney. One of the Olympia areas best for family law representation.

From day one Forrest was helpful and kind. He has been my advocate in what was the longest two years of my life. He has a good reputation with the court and that really showed up every time we had to go. I am very thankful for all of his help and insight and for the results.

Forrest has been an incredible asset during a seemingly unending and wholly unpleasant divorce and custody battle. His knowledge of the law and how the system works is unparalleled. He is trustworthy and hardworking and has gone above and beyond for my case over the years. I’m very grateful to have had him on my side.

Forrest helped me navigate a divorce, which even though relatively amicable and uncontested, is a *huge* and lengthy bureaucratic process which could have gone sideways several times. He presented himself very forthrightly, asked very thoughtful and cogent questions, and made very sure I was both hearing and understanding his answers and the information I needed as we moved through the process, from hiring/retaining his practice, through initial response to the petition for dissolution, and all the way through finalizing negotiated agreements and asset divisions. He and his paralegal were as responsive as the situation allowed, and if I needed urgent information or to be talked down from a stressful point in the negotiations, they were extremely responsive. Let's face it, few of us are seasoned professionals when it comes to dissolving a long-term relationship as cleanly as possible. Forrest understands that, and he is more than able and willing to continue discussion until the client is satisfied and agreed to a next course of action. When you get down to it, that's really about all you can realistically hope for in such an unfamiliar situation. From an administrative point of view, I was very pleased with the accounting and consistency of how my retainer was charged and for what, and I feel that I absolutely got my money's worth throughout the process. Take the time, listen to him, and make your decisions. He supports you and will make sure you see things clearly, even when you don't necessarily want to participate. While I hope I won't need Forrest's services again, I highly recommend him and will retain his contact information should I need a lawyer in the Great NorthWet again.

Forrest Wagner has represented me a handful of times for a family law case, after first being hired in 2009. I highly recommend him. He has always been nothing but professional and fair while handling my case. He comes across as down to earth and approachable, and is quite smart and savvy. Mr Wagner comes to court prepared and ready to fight for you interests. For me, his results are a testament to his skill as an Attorney. One of the Olympia areas best for family law representation.

From day one Forrest was helpful and kind. He has been my advocate in what was the longest two years of my life. He has a good reputation with the court and that really showed up every time we had to go. I am very thankful for all of his help and insight and for the results.

Forrest has been an incredible asset during a seemingly unending and wholly unpleasant divorce and custody battle. His knowledge of the law and how the system works is unparalleled. He is trustworthy and hardworking and has gone above and beyond for my case over the years. I’m very grateful to have had him on my side.

In a brutally messy and difficult divorce, you couldn’t hope for better council! His way with the written and spoken word can’t be matched. His ability to strategize and win the long game is what really sets him apart! I had to go in front of a judge numerous times...and his opponent never had a chance, and although no one can win every time...we did!! As nasty as my ex’s attorney was...I never would have made it out the other side, while still having custody of my kids without Forrest representing me! Thank you!!

Well, after having to fire my first lawyer in my divorce case Forrest was a breath of fresh air. He was easy to talk with and he gets the job done. He also has a top notch assistant too and that also make the whole experience a little better. Divorces are a horrible thing to go through. It was very helpful to have Forrest on my side smoothing the waters as much as he could. My only complaint was the cost but I'm sure there is no such thing as a discount lawyer and as most things go, you get what you pay for.

Forrest works harder than almost anyone else I’ve ever met. He always made me feel like my case was his highest priority, and showed me that just because the opposing counsel was busy mud-slinging and being downright nasty, he could persevere by acting with integrity - and he did! Don’t get me wrong, Forrest is a lion when you need him to be, but i was continually impressed by commitment to honesty, respect and professionalism. Forrest guided me through the most stressful and difficult two years of my life, and because of him every single thing that mattered to me went in our favor. I could not imagine putting such important matters in anyone else’s hands. I will forever be grateful to Forrest and his team (Dawn) for all they’ve done- and there’s no one else i would recommend higher.
