Meet Attorney Clayton R. Dickinson
A very small percentage of lawyers in Washington possess the extensive, high-level trial experience that attorney Clay Dickinson brings to the table. Earning his Juris Doctor from the University of Puget Sound School of Law in 1982, he has spent over forty years honing his litigation skills in both state and federal courts. As a highly seasoned trial attorney, he knows exactly what level of meticulous preparation is required to reach a highly successful outcome before a judge or jury. However, while he is highly experienced and incredibly formidable in the courtroom, he is also an exceptionally skilled collaborative law attorney. Many of his complex family law and divorce cases are successfully resolved through strategic mediation and skillful negotiation. This alternative form of dispute resolution takes place completely outside of the stressful courtroom environment, giving you significantly more power and control over the final decision-making process. When you book a lawyer with such a versatile background, you gain a powerful advocate who knows exactly when to negotiate peacefully and when to fight relentlessly. 💼
Client-Centered Approach and Clear Communication
We deeply understand that navigating the Washington State legal system can be an incredibly intimidating and financially draining experience. That is precisely why we prioritize open, honest, and completely transparent communication with every single person who walks through our doors. We make it a strict point to keep our clients fully informed and continuously updated throughout every single step of the legal process. We take the necessary time to explain complex legal jargon in plain English, ensuring you are empowered to make intelligent, well-informed decisions regarding your family’s future. To make our premier legal services as accessible as possible, we proudly offer a free thirty-minute initial consultation. During this confidential meeting, we will listen intently to your story, evaluate your legal options, and provide a realistic assessment of what to expect. We also proudly offer our legal services in Spanish, ensuring that language is never a barrier to receiving exceptional legal advocacy. Se habla espanol. 💰
