Exceptional legal representation! My experience with Kim was outstanding. She was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and dedicated to ensuring I received the outcome I deserved. Kim’s communication throughout the process was clear and timely, providing me with peace of mind during a challenging time. I highly recommend Palace Law to anyone seeking expert guidance and support for injury cases.

Read their contract before signing. All personal injury cases the law firm will only take 1/3 of your total compensation before tax. This law firm asked for 40% if this case goes to court and presented to a judge and 45% for an appeal. Kinda rip off and they don’t want to do more unless they get more.

Hello, this is Jay Jones. The personal injury attorney I used at this law firm was John Hardie. John is AMAZING. He's definitely an asset to this firm! I had a very complex claim and John handled things to the tee! When I had questions, John would get back to me with little to no delay. To be transparent he even answered questions and concerns I had by email after hours. John is a winner! If you have a personal injury claim do your best to get him!

I hired Palace Law November 2021 & besides 1 paralegal that never really relayed anything nor asked the lawyers the questions I was asking her since no actual lawyer reached out to me until the second denial, I’m still fighting because I didn’t want to settle. Palace paperwork said don’t contact claims manager, but they weren’t even talking to them. The info “L&I” was sending my employer was suppose to go to palace since I wasn’t suppose to talk to them. My workers comp was ignored/denied no one said anything. But PFML that came AFTER the claim reopening application was approved…? Riddle me that Batman. Okay, so my employer admitted I was F’d up but didn’t file the paperwork when they were suppose to (which I still have) and no one asked questions. I applied for PFML/FMLA eventually because I had no money, no medical because my employer dropped me but didn’t fire me… I’m so confused I’ve been denied for workers comp twice because my employer wasn’t giving me the information because it was going to palace who I THOUGHT was working on my case! Patrick, I don’t/won’t trust anyone else with my case other than you. I’m absolutely traumatized, I don’t trust Jordon or Paula or anyone really at the moment for having my best interest at heart. I wanted the claim back open so I could get medical care & SSI since I haven’t been able to work full time since January 2021. I didn’t get any clear guidance whatsoever and was/have been confused this whole time. It seems that my experience is rather similar to the comment that was placed 2 weeks ago about Paula. Patrick, do you mind if I call you tomorrow? Because frankly I cant trust anyone. So please, if you can’t help me can you please have whoever is “representing” my case to withdrawal themselves so I can try & figure this out myself without penalty towards “all the work they’ve put in” please? This is beyond exhausting… I STILL haven’t been able to work. I stayed in contact this whole time sitting here like an idiot thinking oh it’s fine, they’re busy fighting for you, let them do their job… but no actual lawyer put the depth in at all. So as of right now, even after 2 family members went through your law firm before me… i had such high hopes. But I personally CAN’T recommend PALACE LAW again unless this can be remedied… please and thank you in advance. Also… the responses from your employees on the CLIO app is pretty much nonexistent. I’m begging you, please help Patrick 🙏

I had a great experience with my attorney Paula all the way up till we got a lower disability rating than was expected. There was no appointment for a second opinion set up or argument or anything, after months of waiting it took me multiple weeks to get ahold of her and once I did she said she would reach out to the doctor again. Then after another month I started trying to contact her again, after a week of waiting I finally sent a message to th manager expecting to get this resolved and the help I need, but instead a couple days later I'm sent a message that the claim was settled and I would get my portion. Still haven't heard from anyone to this day. This injury made a huge negative impact on my life and I was not given the help I was promised for 30% of my settlement. Do not recommend

I would give this place zero stars . Did nothing for me .I would suggest doing your homework beforehand. Stephanie seemed more interested in the money than helping me . She also lies a lot very unprofessional.

Friendly staff that showed empathy. But when the intake person took my information and asked about the employers insurance company, she chuckled and paused, saying "Ooh, they're difficult.." when she transferred me to a legal consultant, when I had mentioned what happened it seemed promising. When she asked about the employer and the injury, I told her the name and her demeanor changed. And she said she wasn't going to take on my case at this time and that I could consult an Employer attorney. I was left with no help or assistance.

I have worked with PALACE law for the last five years. This company has gotten me through some of the hardest times of my life. On several occasions, my lawyer without her knowledge, has talk me off the edge when I was ready to give up. This company not only did they have my best interest, but also my well-being. I can not say enough positive things about my lawyer, Stefanie Carlton, she is always going above and beyond!

We contact Palace Law after we were denied several time by L & I. They actually gave advice over the phone at first for writing an appeal letter and then later, when we were denied again, we contacted Palace Law to represent us to fight for a full pension. Without their help, we would have received $5000 dollars from L & I. Now my husband has received a full pension. It took time and commitment but in the end we won.We highly recommend their services.

I started out using Debbie as the person representing me in my claim, not only did she treat me as a walking dollar sign for her own personal gain but when I disagreed with her opinion, which was to lay over as fast as I got an offer, she then switched my representation without informing me to another one of her coworkers. Because of Debbie my entire claim was ruined. I would highly recommend using a different representation if Debbie is assigned to you.

Aria Rolfes from Palace Law is absolutely incredible! I am continually impressed with her ability to track my current state of recovery, navigate the difficult waters of LNI and successfully neutralize extremely complicated obstacles that LNI creates. Her communication skills are unparalleled to the point where it feels as if I’m her only client, even though that is not the case. Having her on my team is the single best decision that I made to ensure that LNI does not take advantage of me. Just last week after months of diligently arguing over an ankle surgery she successfuly persuaded them to approve it. Without her this surgery would never be possible because LNI repeatedly denied it and wouldn't accept responsibility for conditions that should be covered. No matter how smart or resourceful you might be, you simply don't have the experience or knowledge to successfuly fight LNI on your own. Without Aria my case would have closed three months in when LNI tried to tell me I was at maximum medical improvement. After retaining Palace Law all of the letters and threats from LNI stopped. Everything they sent went straight to Aria, which greatly reduced my stress and anxiety. She kept my claim open and it is still open after seven years while I have had six surgeries to date with four more surgeries planned. If I listened to LNI my case would have been closed after three months and I wouldn't have received seven years of care. Palace Law is an outstanding law firm and Aria is the quintessential embodiment of their collective excellence. Thank you Aria for helping me heal for the past seven years, I owe all of my care to you.

I have recommended Palace Law to my friends, family and anyone I’ve met who is struggling with their claim. No one decides to go into workers comp representation because their goal is to work exclusively with L & I. People who represent clients who have been injured at work do so because they deeply care about their client’s recovery. They know how unbelievably complicated L &I is and they’ve seen so many people who are genuinely injured get taken advantage of. Their entire goal is to keep things fair and to get their clients the medical care, compensation and settlement that they rightfully deserve. Aria Rolfes and Chelsi Russell are two of the most respectful, knowledgeable, kind, direct and caring individuals that I’ve had the pleasure of working with. My claim has been so much easier because of their attention to detail and ability to address L & I’s decisions head on. If you’re in a fight over a workers comp claim you want them on your side. Palace Law, Chelsi Russell and Aria Rolfes are nothing short of exceptional at what they do. There’s a reason why they are the number one workers compensation law firm in Washington and Oregon. They are the best and the best is what you want when you’re fighting something as horribly complicated as L & I is.

There are times in life when a person or group of people stand in the rarified air of being exactly who they say that they are. The people of Palace Law breathe that air - the air of professionalism, diligence, compassion, persistence, and dedication to serving the principle of right over wrong.For my wife and I, having Palace Law work for us has been not only rewarding in terms of outcome, but a time of reinvigorating altruism - reaffirming a belief in the legal profession.This may sound trite, but the people at Palace Law truly care about their clients and go beyond the extra mile because they are people of integrity.My wife was teaching at a university in Bejing for three weeks in January 2020. She returned to the US coughing up blood and was deemed to be the second case of COVID in California. She was hospitalized immediately and placed in infectious disease isolation, eventually losing half of her left lung. We had no choice of hospitals during this initial period of the COVID pandemic, and our medical insurance would not cover her treatment. Our bills exceeded $100,000. We had to sell our home to pay our medical bills.Her employer, a university, had agreed that her case was covered under its Worker's Compensation plan, but the State of Washington, which administered the plan, disagreed.We sought legal assistance, and Palace Law was recommended by several sources.Palace helped us arrange, and advised us through, mediation which resulted in the State agreeing to reimburse most of the medical bills. However, the State dragged the reimbursement process out for another two years.Throughout that time, Chelsi Russell at Palace navigated the bureaucratic waters for us, never wavering, always persistent, positive, kind and genuinely empathetic. Without her singular efforts, we would not have ultimately prevailed.As people of faith, we can say without reservation that we were blessed in finding Palace Law and cannot recommend them more highly.Thank you to everyone at Palace!A.

Palace Law and Sandra Garrison paralegal for me were an absolute God send. I had other attorneys originally to help with a difficult labor and industry claims. Not all attorneys are created equal. Especially when It comes to self serving interests that undeniably protect themselves and the medical factions. Palace Law and Sandra are golden, rock solid honest and pure professional as one expects. Please make contact if you need honest straight up legal assistance. From My previous experience to rapid claim resolution with proper ethical results. I am more than grateful and consider myself fortunate on what was a nightmare experience dragging on for years of unnecessary pain and uncertainty of proper resolution.

I previously submitted a review, however after more consideration, I wanted to amend my comments to more accurately account my perspective. I must acknowledge that initially my first review was unfavorable, that was partially due to feeling frustrated as the legal proclivities evade me as well as my inexperience with technology. Stefanie Carlton is my legal representative from Palace Law, she has worked exceptionally hard on my behalf even more so after I made an unintentional mistake. My error put more tasks on her heavy work detail. To her credit, she tackled it immediately demonstrating that she was indeed tirelessly working on my behalf. It should be noted that my remarks do not come after a financial gain, the opposite in fact as my legal platform is currently ongoing. I am thankful for Stefanie’s hard work, patience, and understanding. It has to be taxing to represent a client through the ups and downs of a very personal and important legal buffets. I would say most importantly in the event that you find yourself needing legal representation for a labor and industries case you’ll want a person like Stefanie to do the heavy lifting for you. She is direct, she is efficient and I appreciate her hard work. Thanks for reading my thoughts. Cheers, Rebecca Frare

Paula and Courtney go above and beyond in their desire to help and guide their clients through the legal challenges they face. In my struggles with a work related injury, I had found myself defeated. I had given up. When in fact they did not give up on me! Their commitment to my well being was made apparent by their professionalism, and what I call the 3 D's, Diligence, Determination, and Dedication. I commend them for all they have done. Palace Law is very fortunate to have them on their team. I can honestly say that they are not only my legal representatives and professional counsel but I consider them my friends. Thank you with all my gratitude and respect.Harold Andres

I suggest doing your research before you hire an attorney for any reason. I felt rushed when I made the decision to hire this business and regretted it almost instantly. Before you sign a contract they make themselves seem available and ready to help. Once you sign the contract you're either given an attorney who'll read the IME decision incorrectly and make detrimental decision on that mistake, one that doesn't communicate theirs an issues with your time loss until the day your suppose to get it from the attorney when they knew the week before OR when you call in to complain about your service that you receive, you'll be told you're getting an attorney who doesn't have time to respond right away, maybe within 2 days, and doesn't like at your file everyday, which for an occupational disease claim, IS EXACTLY, what you need. I've honestly done a much better job maintaining my claim without them taking 30% of my time loss because it wasn't issued on the correct date. Sounds self fulfilling to me and a complete scam. If you absolutely need representation, don't start here, research, look at reviews and research some more.

I contacted Palace Law when I was on L and I. Other attorneys I contacted wouldn't even listen to me about my claim because i had been on L and I for 8 years. Not only did they listen but because I had difficulty getting around due to complications related to my injury, One of the attorneys came to my home even though I lived nearly an hour away from the Law firm. I met with one of the attorneys, and He took my case. My case has now been settled. I was on L and I for 11 years. They didn't charge anywhere near as much as other attorney's. I would definitely recommend Palace Law without hesitation. Ronda T

I want to first start off by saying I will forever recommend getting an attorney to help represent someone with an L&I claim. We fought with L&I for a total of 5 years and before we were represented by Palace Law L&I was going to close our case because my spouse was at maximum medical improvement. Ya right - there was no way that he was even close. Paula helped me navigate getting further testing, helped me fight with the Vocational person and ultimately helped my husband win a pension. If I can give someone just 1 piece of advice call Palace Law and fight because it would have been so easy to give up and say screw it we want our life back - or to say we will never win and just give up. Find that someone who will advocate for you and fight this system that fails so many. Patrick is the most upstanding lawyer I have ever met and ultimately decreased his fees which was a HUGE shock to us.... why because he knows people matter - and we truly felt like we were heard, we were valued and we were taken care of.Don't try and fight L&I alone - have someone in your corner like Palace Law - because they will fight for you and with you and get you everything that you deserve.We owe everything to Patrick and Paula and will forever be indebted to them for getting my husband the treatment and the pension that he so deserved.

Would leave 0 stars if I could, can't say a good thing about this place... No professionalism- they leave clients in the dark for weeks with zero communication including not responding to emails/phone calls and deciding to cancel/reschedule a meeting at the very last minute for a client who had to drive 30 minutes just to be turned away upon arrival... all the while dealing with Carpal Tunnel and Cubital Tunnel injuries that these legal professionals should be perfectly aware of and helping with, rather than causing additional unneeded pain/stress. We will be looking elsewhere for an actual firm that wants to help people, not a business that some "business manager" wants to maximize their profits from.

Palace Law took my case when no other law firm would, and got me an amazing settlement, they are very thorough. They are an amazing team and made my case an easy process to cope with. They stayed in great communication with me every step of the way and fought to maximize my profit. Palace Law is hands down THE BEST law firm I’ve dealt with. Attorney John H and assistant Hailey make an amazing team.

After contacting this attorney and using him for a labor related case. He was caught and morally compromised. Suddenly my high profile case was settled without my consent and this attorney was able to move from his small office on No. 2nd Street in Tacoma to University place. And me I was bankrupt. Nice to see how much better he's doing.
