Aggressive, unfriendly, and ethically grey. I would go to these guys if I wanted to go after someone I really hate and then feel guilty for it after.

This lawfirm was negligent and convicted by the wa state bar association for professional misconduct in 2019 ...mr gates did not attend necessary appointments..nor did he provide any documentation to me about my case for the three years. Even when I requested it ...then he passed me off to his partner Dj Hastings and I received no better representation then with mr gates. Both attorneys admitted they had not done their jobs and when asked why ...their answers were i dont know...i have all documents pertaining to this case..and potential clients should look this firm up before retaining their services. Over all loss for me 7 years of my life ... my race car ....and 80,000.00 lawsuit..plus 15000.00 dollar lien against my home...all i can do is post this in hopes to make people aware

I am only giving one star bc there is no option for zero stars. David Gates mishandled my case from the beginning. I should have known there was an issue when he continually referred to my son as Hunter in documents. That isn't even close to his name. This seemed minor but I began to get concerned when he was continually reminded but made the same simple error over and over again in legal documents moving forward. I soon realized that was just the beginning of his inability to represent me. He continually left out information he was provided or put incorrect information in documents, which included important monetary information. He decided to not present information I had provided and said needed to be included bc he didnt think the court cared enough to hear about them. He filed zero evidence I gave him. I at a point refused to sign a document he prepared because the inaccurate information was not changed! He then tried to bully me into signing it right before our hearing but I continued to refuse. He has been non-responsive in emails and his assistants emailed me back saying that they cannot answer those questions for Mr. Gates. He sent someone else to my first hearing and notified me via email the day of, which I received in the courthouse. He also did not check to see if the hearing was confirmed by the other party, which it wasnt so I did not have to show up which would have been good to know since I had to drive from Oregon. He showed up late to our second hearing. I was unable to communicate with him directly and my questions/concerns frequently went unanswered. He did not file responses on my behalf that affected the outcome of the hearings. He did not disclose evidence filed against me by my ex-husband including financial documents. They were referred to in a response he wrote and when I asked them for the documents they told me they were never filed. My ex-husbands attorney called them to ask if they were seeing them online. They continued to tell me they were not there. The day of my hearing 30 minutes before I was leaving for court they apparently found them and forwarded it to my email (they didnt even provide a phone call to let me know to check my email) with no apologies for overlooking these documents that were filed 2 weeks prior! I did not have enough time to review and respond to the documents and they did not bring up their error in court as I had asked them to do. He never contacted me to review what we were going to present and afterwards never reached out to me to explain next steps and orders. I asked to meet early before our second hearing and his assistant wrote me back saying they would be there at 1:30 (hearing was at 2:30) but he showed up late! We are pursuing this legally. He should not be allowed to practice and gives a bad name to lawyers everywhere!!!

Sarah Schurman

Elizabeth Feldman

They know what they are doing

Michele Belli

We hired David Hastings to handle our legal case, he was very thorough and professional and our outcome could not have been better. Reasonable rates and very professional service, highly recommended!

Carly Turow

Called several times, spoke to a secretary, e-mailed and could not get a return call. If this is how they treat potential clients how do they treat actual signed clients. Does not bode well with my expectations. Only received 1 star because in order to post my review I had to light up a star.

Parris Shepard

Thank you David Hastings. I don't like to lose and neither does he. Spend the money, it is worth it!!!

David Gates is not equipped to handle a court case regarding a goldfish, let alone a child. His lack of professionalism was shocking. Read the reviews! He's been reprimanded by the Bar Association. I'm among his many previous clients who are still waiting on copies of our legal documents. My case was completely mishandled. Run.
