About
I have been a resident of Snohomish County for the majority of 55 years. I have also lived in British Columbia, Pullman, Washington and London, England. I have worked as a mortgage broker, a consultant to trial attorneys and as a sole practitioner attorney since 2006. It is my intent to serve the legal needs of the people in this community. To that end I practice in a broad range of legal issues: Family Law, Criminal Accusations, Contract Law, Personal Injury Claims and more. Issues that exceed my practice; I refer to other knowledgeable attorneys in our community. It is my intent to be a client’s life-long attorney based on achievement and service.

James represented me on a DV case which took some twists and turns. He took care of handling talking to necessary authorities and kept me out of jail. His positive attitude kept me relatively calm through this ordeal and in the end the case was dismissed. I plan on retaining James services for another matter that needs to be resolved because I trust his skill and knowledge to get the job done. I highly recommend him to others looking for a lawyer who won't sugar coat the situation and get right to the heart of the matter. He's honest and lets you know exactly what needs to be done so I was never misinformed. James delivers. Thanks for helping us get back on track again.
James helped us when we were facing a lawsuit against us. He stepped in & took over when we didn't know what to do. He made it look easy! We sure do appreciate all the hard work he put in for us!
A close friend of mine was so thankful for the way Mr. Hendry very graciously and professionally handled the legal aspects of a decidedly delicate family matter. He highly recommended Mr. Hendry. I've sat down with him a couple of times myself as well, and found him to be a good communicator and a pleasure to work with. Thanks James!
He was a great asset in helping me through a very nasty divorce where I was accused of DV and harming my children. He kept me sane and got to the truth. He has a strong sense of justice which I found refreshing after my experiences with other lawyers.
James is a nice man and a seasoned lawyer. My experience with him was unacceptable, however, and I was forced to find a new lawyer. There are four areas that you should address with James, in writing, before hiring him: 1) Timeliness. He was impossible to contact by phone, so I was forced to use only email. His email responses took, on average, about 2 weeks. It usually required a second email from me to get him to finally respond. It took him over a month to create a cover letter. He offered an excuse about “a big court case” early on that caused the delays, but his timeliness never improved. 2) Billing practices. I never got a bill, statement, or log from him, ever. I asked for monthly statements at least 3 times. After pulling the plug with his firm about 1/3 of the way into the process, he kept the $5K deposit, simply claiming “There is not a reserve to be refunded”. Note that my case was fairly straightforward and I only met with time twice and never talked to him on the phone. 3) Accuracy. As noted, the cover letter he wrote delayed the process by over a month. But aside from that, he misspelled my ex’s name in it. It was then that I knew I had made a mistake in hiring him. 4) Infrastructure. His legal assistant was much more attentive and detail oriented than James himself. Unfortunately, the firm had computer and storage problems during the time I was with them which may have contributed to the delays and general incompetence. I would not recommend hiring James. You can certainly find a better lawyer in the area he serves.

A close friend of mine was so thankful for the way Mr. Hendry very graciously and professionally handled the legal aspects of a decidedly delicate family matter. He highly recommended Mr. Hendry. I've sat down with him a couple of times myself as well, and found him to be a good communicator and a pleasure to work with. Thanks James!
He was a great asset in helping me through a very nasty divorce where I was accused of DV and harming my children. He kept me sane and got to the truth. He has a strong sense of justice which I found refreshing after my experiences with other lawyers.
James is a nice man and a seasoned lawyer. My experience with him was unacceptable, however, and I was forced to find a new lawyer. There are four areas that you should address with James, in writing, before hiring him: 1) Timeliness. He was impossible to contact by phone, so I was forced to use only email. His email responses took, on average, about 2 weeks. It usually required a second email from me to get him to finally respond. It took him over a month to create a cover letter. He offered an excuse about “a big court case” early on that caused the delays, but his timeliness never improved. 2) Billing practices. I never got a bill, statement, or log from him, ever. I asked for monthly statements at least 3 times. After pulling the plug with his firm about 1/3 of the way into the process, he kept the $5K deposit, simply claiming “There is not a reserve to be refunded”. Note that my case was fairly straightforward and I only met with time twice and never talked to him on the phone. 3) Accuracy. As noted, the cover letter he wrote delayed the process by over a month. But aside from that, he misspelled my ex’s name in it. It was then that I knew I had made a mistake in hiring him. 4) Infrastructure. His legal assistant was much more attentive and detail oriented than James himself. Unfortunately, the firm had computer and storage problems during the time I was with them which may have contributed to the delays and general incompetence. I would not recommend hiring James. You can certainly find a better lawyer in the area he serves.
James represented me on a DV case which took some twists and turns. He took care of handling talking to necessary authorities and kept me out of jail. His positive attitude kept me relatively calm through this ordeal and in the end the case was dismissed. I plan on retaining James services for another matter that needs to be resolved because I trust his skill and knowledge to get the job done. I highly recommend him to others looking for a lawyer who won't sugar coat the situation and get right to the heart of the matter. He's honest and lets you know exactly what needs to be done so I was never misinformed. James delivers. Thanks for helping us get back on track again.
James helped us when we were facing a lawsuit against us. He stepped in & took over when we didn't know what to do. He made it look easy! We sure do appreciate all the hard work he put in for us!
