Truce Law

We have referred clients to Truce Law and it's been a good experience for them overall. Divorce is an emotionally charged time, and Justin and his team helps keep things in perspective with a calm presence and backs that up with knowledge. I'll continue to recommend

We met with Dani McDonough and had a genuinely positive experience. She took the time to listen to our reasons for seeking legal support, showed real understanding, and walked us through the process with clear and thorough explanations. We left feeling confident and are looking forward to working with Truce Law.

Dani was Very amazingVery communicative and informative, a pleasure to communicate with. I've been updated. Every step of the way and look forward to working with everybody on the team.

Justin and Barb did a wonderful job handling my divorce. Justin and his team were very professional, kind, and patient during a time where I had made the difficult decision to end my marriage. Justin took his time to explain the dissolution process from being to end. He was also very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire process. Barb was also super knowledgeable and quick in her responses to any of my emails as well!! I felt as if they put me first throughout the dissolution process, and paid very close attention to detail. The price I paid to retain Justin and his team was well worth the money, and in my personal opinion, very affordable, considering they do all the work for you! I would recommend Truce Law to any family member or friend who may need their services in the future.

Justin at Truce Law was so amazing through my divorce experience, It was challenging at times considering my spouse was incarcerated, but that was only because I was waiting on the jail and the notary department at the jail, but Justin was there walking me through every step of the way. Always willing and able to answer any questions I had, which was a lot!! I even remembered he answered my email on a Sunday. I would and have recommended Justin to anyone looking for an attorney who actually cares about his clients satisfaction. And thanks to Justin I am officially Divorced.

This is a 4.9 star review. Although I am pleased with the cost effective service, I needed a bit more explanation of the process. Going through a divorce is a emotional, traumatizing experience. A little more "hand holding" would have been nice.

I hired Sam Collin to represent me in a high-stakes family law case involving parenting time and child support. What I received was a level of preparation, communication, and follow-through that fell far below what anyone should expect when their parental rights and financial future are on the line. Key issues from my experience: Minimal and misleading preparation for a critical court hearing. I was told the hearing would be brief and straightforward. It was not. Important issues arose that I was not prepared for, false statements went unchallenged, and predictable concerns (employment history, financial interpretation, parenting evaluator issues) were not addressed. Failure to explain child support obligations. I received an unsigned order with no explanation of what was required, when payments began, how to pay, or the consequences of missing a deadline. I ultimately learned the payment deadline from the opposing party, not my attorney—creating unnecessary conflict and reputational harm. Financial information filed without clarification. A financial declaration prepared by counsel included expenses I was not actually paying, which directly contributed to the court stating I "needed over $6,000 per month to live." This was never clarified or corrected. I learned in court that I had been removed from health insurance. This was the first time I was notified. My attorney did not raise the issue, object, or advise me on next steps, despite the commissioner explicitly noting the seriousness of the situation. Almost no follow-up after the hearing. After a hearing that dramatically altered my parenting time and financial obligations, I received little guidance. The only prompt communication was from the billing department requesting additional funds. Billing concerns. I was billed attorney-rate time for multiple hours of travel to court and other cost-driving activities that were not meaningfully discussed in advance. When I asked questions about billing and obligations, communication slowed further. Eventually, I retained new counsel. My new attorney independently raised serious concerns about how my case had been handled and recommended that I consider reporting the conduct to the Washington State Bar Association, which I have now done. Family law clients are often stressed, vulnerable, and relying heavily on their attorney for guidance. In my experience, that guidance was missing when it mattered most. I cannot recommend this firm or this attorney. Update: The firm has since responded requesting a phone call. At this time, I am not comfortable discussing this by phone. My review accurately reflects my experience.
