This was my first time engaging in any sort fo legal service agreement. Put simply -- Erin Norgaard, Brian Dolman and the HKM Team are heroes in my eyes. I was faced with a very stressful employment dispute that put my livelihood at stake. Erin was fast to respond to my inquiry, took my case, and then brought Brian on board as well. They had complimentary areas of expertise that felt custom fit to my case. They are seasoned lawyers, yet they were sensitive to my situation and were personal with me when corresponding. It was always educational listening to them think aloud as they would anticipate the actions of the other party. They are at the top of their field, they know it, and it showed in their bravery when communicating with the other party. I have absolute trust in them -- there was never a moment that I didn't feel the utmost confidence in their legal strategies. We reached a favorable outcome in the end and I'm eternally grateful for their hard work. If you have the opportunity, jump on the chance to work with them. I recommend their counsel very highly.

I could not have been happier with the advice and service I got from Cecilia Brennan at HKM that saved me from signing and accepting a one-sided severance package from my former employer. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone. I received prompt and professional service.

What to say about Mamta? Attentive, available, patient, took the time to understand the nuances of my weird job and worked with me based on my budget. So thankful for Mamta and HKM! I truly feel that I would have had a very different outcome without her guidance and advocacy.

I was very pleased with the representation and guidance I received from HKM attorney Mamta Ahluwalia throughout the course of of my legal action against an employer. She made the process as painless as possible and was able to resolve my case favorably without trial. I would highly recommend Ms. Ahluwalia and HKM to anyone in need of representation in employment related legal disputes. Thank you!

HKM was invaluable in assisting with a recent WA state employment predicament. The advice was pragmatic, concise, and saved us a lot of time, effort, and research. I'd highly recommend the firm for any employment-related legal matters and/or question and plan on using them for any similar situations in the future, should they arise.

It was a very difficult time for me when I sought help and support from HKM. They were the answer to my prayers and were there for me every step of the way. I would highly recommend HKM to anyone that needs employment legal support. They work hard for their clients.
