I'm always nervous when I hire a lawyer because I assume that I'm going to be overbilled. As a small business owner, I've used 3 Bellingham-based business lawyers and Karen was by far the best. She was extremely clear, efficient, knew what she was talking about and didn't waste my time (she helped to write up some contracts which I needed to get my business going). And, in terms of cost of services, the amount of time which she spent was the extremely reasonable, contrasting with the other 2 lawyers who I've worked with.
