Hired Attorney Steven J. Peiffle

I am board president for a non-profit association. We had a very difficult legal issue arise from a land sale. Mr. Peiffle was able to give us clear, direct advice on how to proceed with the issue. He ended up representing us in the case and did an excellent job. His thoughtfulness and attention to detail were an important part in our success. He's exactly who I would have wanted to represent our interests in this difficult matter.

I highly recommend Steven J. Peiffle, attorney at Bailey, Duskin & Peiffle, P.S. in Arlington, WA. He is well-respected among his colleagues and within the court system. Peiffle is knowledgeable, (important!), confident (important!), personable (important!) and a stand-up kind of professional (important!) who always acts with integrity (important!). The outcome in my case turned out to be the best I could have expected.

Hired Attorney Steven J. Peiffle

I did not know lawyers like Steve existed until I met him. He is ethical, professional, compassionate and family oriented. Steve and his assistant (Elizabeth) were both incredibly responsive and kind during a complex civil lawsuit of which I sought his council through. His quality of service is outstanding! I highly recommend Steve's representation.

We found their service in the matter of reviewing our will to have been responsive, prompt and most reasonable. Attorney Steven Peiffle listened and acted upon our requests and kept the whole matter quick and basic as we needed.

Hired Attorney Bradley E. Neunzig

Scheduled a phone consultation which lasted for 5 minutes and 24 seconds. Emailed Brad a real estate contract (approx 10 pgs) and another 1 pg document a day later. I never heard back until after my deadline over a week later advising me to do nothing. Now received an $800 bill. He did not disclose any fees up front and certainly can't explain how so much time was billed. Do yourself a favor and find another lawyer.

Could not be bothered to return phone calls. Overcharged for his service and billing could not identify where/how his time was spent. Poor overall experience.
