Each client is different. However, the one thing that all clients have in common is they don't want to be a "client". No one wants to be a client any more than they want to be a patient. None of us ask for legal headaches any more than we ask for medical aches and pains. Most companies, and the people who manage the companies, are on the short side of time and money. Running a business takes most of their waking moments. Any remaining time is quickly absorbed with family and personal schedules.. I was born in Seattle in 1945 and never left. It's a super place to live, work, and raise a family. I received both my B.A. (1968) and law degree (1975) from the University of Washington. Since then I have represented contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, architects, and engineers. My work involves getting my clients paid for their work, and helping them with business transactions and contracts.. When somebody asks me to give them some help, it's usually because they've already been stressing over the problem for a while and have arrived at the painful conclusion that the problem either won't go away by itself or they can't solve the problem by themselves. They're apprehensive about now having to pay somebody else to help them to a resolution. Every client and every matter is different. But the common thread weaving through all of them is that the client wants to get to a resolution as soon and as economically as possible.
