Palace Law, you are my heroes. Jun 5, 2025

I cannot put into words how grateful I am for Palace Law—especially Chelsi and Patrick Palace. After being referred by John Bonin, another outstanding attorney, I finally found a team who truly listens, cares, and fights for their clients. Palace Law has been nothing short of a lifesaver for me, my wife, and our entire family. I fully qualify for the maximum award of permanent partial disability (PPD) - and I am at the highest levels/categories of disability. All of my back and neck injuries and issues have progressively gotten worse and worse. Before finding Palace Law, I endured a nightmare of mistreatment and injustice while working at a major Seattle-area shipyard as a union machinist. My story is one of relentless hardship: I suffered a devastating, progressive occupational disease after months of brutal, repetitive, and unsafe work—work that was riddled with OSHA violations and toxic exposures. Instead of protecting me, my employer and union failed me at every turn. I was harassed, retaliated against, discriminated against, and ultimately terminated unlawfully. My health insurance was cut off when I needed it most, leaving me buried in tens of thousands of dollars in medical debt and unable to access critical medications for my many work-related injuries and health conditions. I have been denied hundreds of hours of overtime, PTO, sick leave, and vacation pay. My pension and 401(k) contributions—supposed to be 100% matched by both my employer and union—were taken from me. I was denied my $5,000 tool allowance, blocked from union support, and shut out of emergency cash assistance and hardship grants that I should have received as a machinist union member. My L&I claim was deliberately misfiled as a single injury instead of the occupational disease it truly is, and the claims process was made even worse by unhelpful, incompetent claims managers who seemed intent on suppressing my rights rather than upholding them. Because of all this, I am now fully disabled at just 31 years old. I can’t even bend over to put on my own socks. I went from being a McDonald’s All-American and Division I athlete, with a stack of Division II scholarships for basketball and football, to someone who can’t hike, fish, bike, paddleboard, boat, snowmobile, run, or even work out. My wife and I have lost the active, joyful life we built together. I’ve lost my hearing, my vision is failing, my memory is slipping, and I live with constant pain and exhaustion. And through it all, my employer and union have tried to silence me, meeting behind closed doors and hoping I would just go away. But Palace Law would not let that happen. Chelsi has been a true advocate—responsive, knowledgeable, compassionate, and relentless. She listens, she cares, and she stands up for me every single time. Patrick Palace’s leadership and reputation are unmatched; his team’s expertise and commitment give me real hope for the first time in years. I am confident that, with Palace Law by my side, I will finally receive the maximum settlement and justice I deserve for everything I’ve been put through. My wife, 100% Native American and a fully enrolled tribal member of the Makah Tribe, my family, and our friends all want to thank Palace Law for believing in me and having my back 100%. We spent years searching for an attorney who would truly fight for us, and we found that—and so much more—in Palace Law. We are still working through my case, but I already feel hope, support, and a sense of justice returning to my life. Palace Law, Chelsi, and Patrick Palace: you are my heroes. Thank you for your dedication, your strength, and your unwavering commitment to standing up for injured workers like me. If you are looking for a law firm that will truly fight for your rights, listen to your story, and never back down—look no further. Palace Law is the best of the best. Thank you, Palace Law, for being the advocates every injured worker deserves. You have changed my life.

Very good advice with decisions May 1, 2025

John has always made time for my questions, no matter how big or small. I've leaned on him for some very good advice with a variety of personal and professional matters when too overwhelmed to make sound decisions. I met John years ago through a referral from someone else who highly recommended working with him.

Pleased with their efforts Feb 4, 2025

My name is Darlle Bullock. I just started working with Palace Law, but I'm very pleased with their efforts in my difficult multi-layered case and their assistance as I'm not from here and don't know the laws here to protect myself.

Outstanding Experience with Ciana Nov 6, 2024

I had an outstanding experience working with Ciana on a personal injury matter. Without her expertise, I would have never realized that I even had a case. Ciana’s attention to detail and deep understanding of personal injury law were invaluable. She guided me through every step with professionalism and care, ensuring I understood the process and felt supported. Thanks to her diligence and expertise, what could have been overlooked became a well-handled case. I highly recommend Ciana to anyone needing a knowledgeable and dedicated legal professional. Five stars without a doubt!

Thank God for Palace Law! Oct 25, 2024

First time I felt like someone cared. Took my L&I case and immediately went to work. Got my denial appealed, and I expect to get this case resolved soon. Stefanie is great and keeps me informed every step of the way. I’ve worked 48 years without any claims. I file ONE, and L&I immediately denies me. L&I sucks, thank God for Palace Law!

Good, Straightforward Information Sep 13, 2024

I used their online chat regarding an injury I got at work approximately a month ago that I've been given the runaround on. The same day I did the chat, I received a phone call from them, and they gave me exactly the information I was needing regarding my L&I claim. They're the only people involved in this process that has given me good, straightforward information so I can make sure me and my family are taken care of during all of this. I will absolutely use Palace Law moving forward and recommend them to anyone feeling stuck.

Great Communicators Aug 25, 2024

It was so much easier allowing Palace Law to represent me with my claim. Great communicators. All questions answered. Easy to get in contact. The team will take great care of them. I hope to never get injured on the job again, but if I do, I would be contacting Palace Law again.

My Best Post-Accident Decision Aug 15, 2024

My best post-accident decision was to call Palace Law. I had heard stories about personal injury claims going wrong and knew I needed a team to help advocate for me and help me through the process. Having Palace Law on my case helped me focus on healing after my accident & I cannot thank them enough for that. They took the time to make me feel heard after the accident, made sure all the timely to-do's were completed so I didn't have to worry about them later, and communication was so simple and easy. The staff truly cares about your well-being.

Emily Lambert

A 5-star Law Firm Aug 13, 2024

Totally a 5-star law firm. The team here has done everything in their power to actually help me out. They actually care about 'the RIGHT thing to do,' and everyone has done and said nothing short of that. I have, would, and will, recommend them to anyone that has had a workplace injury and needs help navigating their way through the L&I process because L&I says they're there for you, but they really aren't. Palace Law really is and win or lose, they really do the footwork necessary to get you what's due. Thanks again for all your continuing help!

Experienced and Caring Team Aug 5, 2024

Emily is a lifesaver Jun 3, 2024

Emily at PalaceLaw was assigned to my case in February 2024. I had 2 claims: a sideswipe in December causing whiplash, and the transit bus air seat broke while driving down the highway in mid-January, causing severe injury to my lower back. Fighting with L&I because they linked the 2 claims together. My case has been an actual nightmare. My now former employer is still appealing each step possible to postpone treatments and workers' compensation pay. If it wasn't for Emily, I would have lost my home to foreclosure and my vehicle repossessed. It's not been easy for me. But I'm blessed she has never given up and keeps fighting for me. PalaceLaw is worth looking into, if you get injured. Please don't trust L&I to work with you. In my case, they worked against me. Thank you, PalaceLaw, for hiring Emily. She is worth more than her weight in gold.

Highly recommended for legal inquiries Jun 1, 2024

All the people here are very pleasant to work with, and are quite knowledgeable in their field of work, honest and can provide you with proper information and or tools you can use if you choose to go about certain things on your own outside of representation. If you have any questions regarding anything in their field of work I definitely recommend talking with this firm.

Entirely Helpful Assistance May 8, 2024

They have been entirely helpful since they accepted my case. Thorough and informative every step of the way. When I had an IME and no gas in my car, they arranged for a ride to and from. After fighting tooth and nail myself with little to no results, Palace Law stepped in, and immediately Sedgwick stopped dragging me through the mud. Definitely recommend if you are injured at work and don't know what steps to take.

Peace of Mind with Palace Law Mar 30, 2024

Aria has been working with me and she is very thorough. I feel like she has orchestrated a great case and without her help I definitely would've been lost. I don't get good sleep at night because of my injury but knowing that Palace Law is on the job gives me peace of mind, especially when they have employees like Aria. Thanks for letting me give my feedback and putting me in a position to give feedback.

Extremely Happy with Palace Law! Feb 28, 2024

A True Blessing During Hard Times Feb 17, 2024

Palace Law and Sandra Garrison have been a true blessing during the hardest time of my life. I’ve spent the last 7 years working with them, and it hasn’t been an easy ride, but they work very hard to get the best outcome for their clients. Sandra has done an outstanding job keeping me informed of the process and making me feel safe and secure with my future. I couldn’t have asked for a better person and team to help me during this stressful time and working hard to get me what I deserved.

John is AMAZING Nov 16, 2023

Hello, this is Jay Jones. The personal injury attorney I used at this law firm was John Hardie. John is AMAZING. He's definitely an asset to this firm! I had a very complex claim and John handled things to the tee! When I had questions, John would get back to me with little to no delay. To be transparent, he even answered questions and concerns I had by email after hours. John is a winner! If you have a personal injury claim do your best to get him!
