Our Litigation Practice

Our Tacoma litigation attorneys have been representing clients in all types of disputes for more than 30 years. We seek to provide the simplest, most cost-effective solutions to our clients' unique problems. This means we are open to and often encourage negotiation of disputes or other alternative means to find mutually agreeable solutions.

However, we know that negotiations are not always practical and that litigation can be the most effective way to protect our clients' interests. In these situations, we work to manage the cost, disruptions and delays often associated with trials while sparing no effort to aggressively advocate our clients' positions in court.

Some of the more common issues our lawyers handle involve:

We Effectively Handle the Risks of Litigation

Litigation is always a risk. While we strive to put together the strongest case possible for our clients, using clear legal arguments backed by convincing evidence, there is no guarantee of a successful result. When that successful result is thwarted by mistakes in the legal process it may be possible to challenge that decision in the Court of Appeals. We offer experienced appellate representation at all levels of Washington State's court system.

Testimonials

My husband and I recently consulted with Tim about my husband's negative employment situation. Tim was professional, knowledgeable, and sincere. Through Tim we learned that we did not have a legal case and would have to rely on negotiation to achieve a positive result. Tim helped my husband clarify what he really wanted - to leave the job and hopefully receive a severance deal. Tim gave my husband negotiating tips which really paid off. Following Tim's advice my husband negotiated an amicable parting and a generous severance package. We are very happy with the outcome and will recommend Tim and your firm in the future. (client)

I cannot speak highly enough about Mr. Friedman. He took on my case last minute and won. His integrity and attention to detail stood out the most for me. Mr. Friedman is a professional, competent, and extremely ethical lawyer. I highly recommend him for your future endeavors. (client)

We hired Tim to assist us suing our neighbor who was blocking our view due to recent construction. We found Tim to be very knowledgeable regarding property issues. He was also very professional and was always available to answer our questions. My husband and I were so impressed with Tim during the duration of this case that we left money in our account with his office. In the near future we will be using his services and expertise to create wills for us. I highly recommend Tim to anyone seeking representation. It was a pleasure working with him. (client)

Mr. Blado has personally represented my construction firm and me personally for several years now. On occasion, members of his firm have represented me as well.

I have and continue to find Mr. Blado exceptionally knowledgeable about all of the aspects of business, construction and real estate law as they have applied to my many situations. Mr. Blado brings a wealth of experience and practical, problem solving knowledge to the table. He is truly desirous of serving the best interest of his clients. He will provide options and will review the relative merits and weaknesses of each position which may be taken given the issue at hand. Don't let the grin fool you. Although Mr. Blado is a personable fellow, he can (and has been for me) an extremely tough and determined attorney when the situation requires it.

I highly recommend Mr. Blado and his firm for your legal needs.

I am the paralegal here at ***, Jon is our attorney and I can say with all confidence that he has surpassed our expectations. Our company uses him and other members of this firm frequently for all our legal needs. *** is an investment company and have had many needs for corporate law issues as well as real easte and contracts. Jon has always been right on top of every issue to come across his desk, even when we have had to deal with other attorneys out of state he follows the process to make sure that we are well cared for. He has always been ahead of the game with his knowledge, promptness and attention to detail. At all times he has made us comfortable in his presence and he is willing to go that extra mile to ensure the quality of his work. We couldn't be happier. Jon deserves a rating of excellent, he has truly earned it. (client)

Jon Blado is an excellent attorney. Jon served as the corporate attorney for Rainier Pacific Bank, and I relied on his counsel for the past 10 years for human resources (employment law, etc), real estate/facilities contracts, etc. Jon is highly responsive, possesses high integrity, delivers exceptional client service, and I would recommend him without reproach. - W.M. (client)

We were on opposite sides of a professional practice acquisition. Jonathan was timely and efficient in his responses. He was practical and fair in his approach. Our clients obtained a sound outcome at a modest price, and the deal worked out well for both of them. - P.W. (attorney)

Jonathan was very helpful at a very stressful time not only providing good legal advice but making suggestions that help eliminate future problems. - M.S. (client)

Mr. Blado is an outstanding attorney who has an incredible depth of experience and knowledge of the law. He is able to sort out various strategies and gambits from the opponent and develop a well thought out, reasonable and effective position from which to proceed. Mr. Blado is my "go to" guy!
Even when I need routine advice about basic stuff Mr. Blado always gives me his opinion based on sound reasoning, his experience and the law.
My wife and I (and others whom we've referred) appreciate Jon and his staff for their professionalism and their expertise. - M.C. (client)

Jon knows the law! He is approachable and easy to communicate with. His trustworthy and reliable advice has been very helpful over the years. I recommend Jon highly. (client)

Jon Blado successfully resolved complex legal issues related to real estate and financial transactions. His work assisted us in the acquisition of property; review of construction and financing documents; and approval by regulatory officials for the William Factory Incubator's facilities adjacent to Interstate 5 in Tacoma. Jon's expertise in real estate and financial law allowed us to complete our projects on-time and within the estimated budget. - T.S. (client)

I know Jonathan from working with him on various cases. That includes transactional work where we have each represented clients involved in a business transaction. I have also worked with Jonathan when we have been on opposing sides in litigation. Jonathan is very professional and a strong advocate for his client, but at the same time never loses sight of what is best for his client. I would strongly recommend his services. - B.C. (attorney).

I have known Jonathan for more than 25 years through the legal community in Tacoma & Pierce County. He has always shown himself to be an honest, trustworthy individual and a true professional as an attorney. I would not hesitate to recommend him in any situation requiring legal advice, representation or services. He has also been generous in his private time, serving as Judge Advocate/legal advisor for our yacht club. - C.G. (former Deputy Clerk of Court)

To put things mildly, Nicole is a top-notch attorney and a terrific human being. (client)

Nicole Bolan is a superb lawyer with a professional grasp of the client's situation. Her communication skills enhance not only the client-lawyer relationship, but expedites the process of negotiation. Ms Bolan exhibits a willingness to expedite the process, without hampering the client's interests. She not only communicated effectively with opposing personnel, she did so without delay. I would recommend her talents to anyone I know who wants to work with an efficient, intelligent and hard-working lawyer who also is an expert in her field. (client)

Nicole has been my lawyer on several different occasions. Each time I found her to be very professional, attentive to detail, thorough. She kept me posted as to what was happening and where we were in the procedure. I had complete confidence in her abilities and was completely satisfied with the results. She helped with my estate planning and probates on two occasions. (client)

Nicole was very responsive to my needs, and kept me well informed. I let her know I was conscious of fees, and she kept this in mind, but did not sacrifice the information flow. If it needed to be said, she said it. (client)

Nicole Bolan was terrific to work with. She explained everything along the way and kept me up-to-date with the proceedings. (client)

My experience with Nicole was good. I find people who get divorced regret their choice in lawyer, but I can say with confidence that I do not feel that way. She kept me informed about my options and helped me keep a level head. She did not tell me what to do or say or tell me there was only one way to accomplish my goals. She did give me options with warnings about each avenue. She answered all my calls and emails quickly, and she was sympathetic to my needs. She seemed knowledgeable, and when she didn't know she researched the information. I felt she was always looking out for my best interest which is very hard to come by during a divorce. (client)

My husband and I retained Nicole for a relocation trial. She was great! We were in contact via email if not by phone and Nicole always kept us informed. Nicole has wonderful people skills. We were able to relocate with a quick trial and we have kept in contact with her since. Not only would I be more than happy to have Nicole represent me again I would recommend her to anyone. (client)

Nicole is very competent in her knowledge base in family law, and has been very quick and efficient in resolving matters of a difficult nature. She is also sensitive to the needs of her client, me. The list goes on and on, as to her competencies in legal matters. I would recommend her to anyone! (client)

Nicole won my lawsuit very easily. I got everything that I was suing for in the judgment. She is very professional, very intelligent and very thorough at what she does. I would recommend her to anyone needing the help of a lawyer and will use her again if I ever need to. (client)

Out of five lawyers I talked to, Nicole was the most concerned about my case. Hired her firm and they saved my whole way of life.
Follow her advice and won the important things about the case. In short:

I am an equal parent in Washington State.

My daughter was not moved out of state.

Back living in my house.

Peace of mind knowing that I was well handled and advised, and stood up for my rights.

Also, Nicole protected me from myself. (client)

I feel that Nicole Bolan is an excellent lawyer. She is efficient and always makes sure that her clients needs are being met. In the court room she is always prepared, on-time, and thinks quickly in response to the other attorney and/or the judge. I feel very comfortable when speaking with Mrs. Bolan, she is patient and understanding as well as honest about what she feels should be done and listens to any ideas that her client may have and gives great feedback. I have been very happy with Mrs. Bolan's services. (client)

I use Mr. Kiger for legal advice and to deal with homeowners who are in arrears with their HOA Dues. His office handles everything from filing liens to sending collection letters and all other legal matters including foreclosures. Mr. Kiger has been our lawyer for over 10 years and we have no intention to look for someone else. - B.W. (client)

Doug and I became acquainted when he provided legal services with a high value real estate purchase. Along with this he assisted us with other legal details associated with this purchase. We have since purchased other real estate with his legal experitse. Doug has provided legal advice and service with business issues; estate planning; and real estate land issues providing legal advice and legal documents. He has been competent; informed; and without the typical lawyer hurbris. He works with clients and is not pretentious; condescending; and dismissive. - R.L. (client)

Douglas Kiger set up my LLC. Thanks! You made the process so much easier! - N.F. (client)

I am so very grateful that I have chosen your firm, and you specifically, because I truly believe that your honesty has saved me the burden of expenses beyond what might otherwise have been cost effective in this matter. - M.B. (client).

Thank you so much. I have never had to deal with an attorney over any issues before. I thank you for your time and generosity. This has been a very difficult time for me. You will be my first pick if I need legal assistance again. - H.C. (client).

Thank you for all the work you've done on my behalf - no one could have done a better job. - D.K. (client).

Thank you again for helping me with my will and the trust. I "sing" and praise you to all my friends! - C.O. (client)

Just like to thank you for all your help you have given to me. Without you I don't know what I would have done. I'm so glad to have met you and to have worked with you, thank you again. - P.B. (client)

Doug Kiger's performance from day one through litigation has been nothing short of spectacular. I could not have retained a better attorney to represent my interests in my absence. Information and updates concerning the status were consistently provided in a timely manner and fashion. Documentation was constantly forwarded via the mail for my personal records in an organized manner. Mr. Kiger's ability to research the law and always answer questions asked or information needed was nothing short of exceptional. His honesty and sincerity while handling my case developed a trust in his ability that always allowed me to feel confident my case was being handled by a true professional who had my best interests at heart. - R.H. (client)

Please congratulate Doug on a job well done not only on my behalf but my children's as well. As a single parent providing our only source of income, the settlement of this case has allowed me to buy a new home and lessened the financial burden and stress all due to his successful litigation on my behalf. - R.H. (client).

I want to thank each of you for the outstanding professional legal services that you have provided me in my marriage dissolution case. At no time did I worry about what my attorneys were doing. Your manner gave me complete confidence that my best interests were always important to you. I want to also give a special shout-out to Nicole for her brilliant stewardship of the matter. - M.S. (client)
