"After getting released by my employer, I applied for and received unemployment. A year later, my determination was challenged by ESD and repayment was threatened. Ryan was very knowledgeable and effective in handling my appeal. His handling of my case was very efficient (no superfluous fluff) and billing as a result was very fair."

"Ryan Castle law firm is great to work with. He helped me in my accident case and got me good compensation from the person who was responsible for the car accident. He has good knowledge of his subject in laws of the states and policy and procedures to follow in working on any case. I will always use him for my cases and will recommend him to take case of my family friends and known people. I wish him all the best in his future endeavors."

"Ryan was so attentive and detailed through the work. Clearly explaining all of the paperwork, procedures, and kindly taking care of so much, I highly recommend Ryan as everything was done in a manner of care and understanding throughout the entire process."

"Mr. Castle provided me with excellent service in drafting my living trust and will. I had extra, unique questions that he was thoroughly responsive to. He took the time to reply in writing with various options for me to consider. He did not charge me for the extra assistance which he graciously included in his flat rate service. And he facilitated very easily signing the final documents. I recommended him to anyone needing similar attorney services."

"Our family is new to the Whatcom County area, and after our new home was built, as a unique family, we needed to locate an attorney to add the new home to our Wills and Trust. We needed someone we could trust and guide our updates to our documents, and Ryan was more than willing to help us. What made our experience efficient and seamless is that Ryan took the time to ask us questions, respected our vision, and provided clarity around Washington's confusing legal updates to Wills and Trust we did not know about that our previous attorney of 14 years failed to provide us. Yes, our family recommends that if you need an attorney to help with Wills and Trusts, please consider Ryan. Think about if you want an attorney who is approachable and personable - you will not be disappointed. We are grateful for Ryan and have intentions to work with him long-term."

"I was fired for being non-binary/transgender from a job. I never hide who I am, but when they found I used gender neutral pronouns and name, they had a big issue. It was horrific. I live in Bellingham! A place known for being enlightened and educated.I didn’t know what to do but my parents encouraged me to not drop it, as so many others could also be harmed.I reached out to several lawyers, but something about how Ryan spoke made me listen.Ryan showed up and was compassionate, understanding, and hard working. He answered questions with patience (even though I felt perhaps I was being annoying), and made sure I knew exactly what should and could happen with each step. The other side had some old boomer law firm, but Ryan was not intimidated. He stuck to the facts. In the end, Ryan got much better results than I ever expected. I would recommend him to anyone who finds themselves the target of discrimination. Ryan knows his stuff. Thank you Ryan."

"Ryan is an extraordinary attorney who goes above and beyond. When I felt like all hope was lost, Ryan was there to support and guide me as my attorney. If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't have chosen a different person to represent me because Ryan is a gem in a world full of coal. Honesty, integrity and empathy are three words I would use to describe Ryan and his firm."
— AR
"One of the most critical and difficult decisions for a start-up entrepreneur is to engage a strong lawyer. I was seeking an attorney that would understand my new business and provide advice not merely legal options. After an introductory conversation with Ryan, I provided him with a long list of documents needed for me to initiate my new company. Without delay, Ryan listened, understood my needs and delivered on time. Ryan is a pro and highly recommended."
— DD
"Ryan Castle represented me in my case and he was phenomenal. He is intelligent and articulate. He had clearly done all his research and was knowledgeable about the laws that applied to my case. He is certainly the people’s champion in this scenario because I was the underdog. If you are looking for competent legal representation then Ryan Castle is your person!"
— RB
"Needing legal assistance in life for tough matters is never easy and typically anxiety laden. Ryan and his team were able to provide excellent advice and services to navigate difficult situations and reduce stress. It is not common to find more transparent and patient legal experts. I could not say enough to recommend Castle Law Firm."
— CC
"Ryan is an absolute professional. He handled our issue promptly and with total clarity and open communication. His rates are reasonable and his service top notch. He was friendly and responsive. He completely impressed my old codger father who is not impressed by much these days. Will absolutely be using his services again in the future."
— AL

"It was a pleasure working with Ryan, he made it very easy and comfortable. The fact that he speaks English and Spanish was a blessing in my situation. He was also willing to go out of his way to keep all party's safe during this pandemic. I would recommend Ryan Castle Law Firm to anyone in need of legal assistance."

"I would like to say that Ryan is an exemplar of his practice. His compassion and empathy coincide with his drive to help people—but do not take this as a weakness. Ryan did everything in his power to assist me, fight for me, and be there every step of the way. None of this would've been possible without his guidance. I am very appreciative and thankful because I couldn't have done it without him. Thank you, Ryan."
— AR
"I was referred to Ryan by a friend after getting hit by a car in a crosswalk. He helped me every step of the way and from start to finish was a pleasure to work with. From handling all of the communications with the insurance companies, to helping me find a Physical Therapist. Ryan was always up front about what to expect, and his representation allowed me to turn all of my energy into recovery. It was such a relief to have someone there in my corner to help walk me through the process and to take that burden off of my shoulders. Overall, Ryan was communicative, compassionate, & understanding of what I was going through. I can't think of anyone I'd rather have backing me up, highly recommend if you have a situation requiring legal expertise to reach out. 5 Stars."

"To those who maybe looking for a attorney who will listen and fight for you, Ryan Castle is the attorney for you.I was facing false accusations, and was in a very bad situation with the State's Adult Protective Services. I was facing a big fine and the loss of my job and reputation.Ryan took the time to listen and hear me, and unravel the situation and fight back against APS and the false reports they had received. He gave them the facts with my case.My case was dismissed and I am very thankful that I hired Ryan Castle. He is an outstanding attorney who will take the time to listen to your case, and help unwind the facts and fight for you."

"I am so thankful for Ryan's calm, clear and accurate direction in navigating through the process of changing my trans son's name legally. My ex was not on board with this, which made the process more difficult. Today my son woke up on his 16th birthday with the warmest smile on his face because he is (legally) who he wants to be, and he told me "I feel like nothing can stop me now"- Thank you Ryan for being instrumental in helping me, to help my son be unstoppable."

"Mr. Castle represented my family on a rather complex case involving a loved one’s Estate under pursuit by a city entity claiming Eminent Domain law. Naturally this was disconcerting and legal counsel was the best route to take. Mr. Castle explained everything comprehensively and thoroughly; he listened intently and with compassion and understanding of my family’s values and goals. His communication was punctual, his recommendations solid and he executed our case under reasonable fees and to a favorable ending. I highly recommend him."

"During the COVID outbreak I was having trouble understanding my rights as an employee. To make things even more complicated, as we started thinking about getting back to work, I faced the challenge of needing child care but many places weren't open and I also was afraid of leaving my kids with a large group. Ryan was quick to respond and thorough when answering my questions and addressing my concerns. He emailed me details from the Department of Labor about the Families First Coronavirus Response Act and explained about how it applied to me specifically in my industry of dentistry. He was also knowledgeable about the Payment Protection Plan that my employer could take advantage of and what to expect. His legal advice and guidance gave my family and I great peace of mind. Thank you!!!"

"Thanks for your hard work, on-going communication and timeliness."

“I had the pleasure of working with Ryan Castle . . . and was very satisfied with the legal services he provided across the board. After two of my sons were shot with a pellet gun, left loaded and unsecured in a private home, I decided to bring a civil cause of action against the parents of the shooter, and the homeowner. Ours was a pretty complicated case. Liability was not at all clear and recovery of any damages certainly not guaranteed. Ryan handled all steps in the process expertly and with high integrity. In the end, he negotiated good settlements for my children and did it in a timely fashion. I couldn’t have been more pleased with Ryan’s work and would highly recommend him to those needing excellent, reliable legal services.”

“My experience with Ryan Castle . . . was excellent. Even though the entire case was handled over the phone and via email, Ryan was thorough, very responsive to my questions and supportive during my legal issue. I always knew that he was working in my best interest to get my case resolved as quickly as possible in a way that would benefit me most. While I hope to never have the need for legal counsel again, there is no doubt in my mind that [Ryan Castle] will be my first choice if I do.”

“I recently had the pleasure of working with Mr. Ryan Castle on a complicated real estate transaction in the State of Washington. Ryan represented me on the foreclosure of one of my commercial properties and the sales contract between me and the new buyer. He represented and advised both me the seller and my buyer. His advice was very practical, candid and accurate. The entire process was wrapped up in a timely and satisfactory manner for me and my buyer. I would not hesitate to use Ryan in the future!”
— JM
“Ryan and my team of attorneys were fantastic in handling my medical malpractice claim. This was a stressful process for me, but they held my hand and were always quick to answer my questions in detail. Certainly not like the attorneys you see on TV. They actually cared. And they were able to reach a settlement quickly that I felt was fair compensation for my injuries. I would recommend Ryan . . . for any personal injury matter you have! They will treat you like a member of the firm, not just a number!”
— ES
“Ryan, Thank you for all the advice, support and friendship you have extended to us during these past few months. It was helpful to know someone like you was with us. Your knowledge of insurance law eased our minds so we could focus on a positive future and healing process for our son. Thank you so much.”
— CB and JB
"All I can say is our dispute has been settled without going to court! All [due to] Ryan’s work.... [A]nd the only part we did not like about the support from Ryan was we actually never met him in person and yet everything worked out well.Thanks so much Ryan!"
— GR and VR
"When the full force of the Washington State Employment Security Department comes against you for repayment of thousands of dollars, as a defendant, you feel helpless and anxiety ridden. I was blessed that Ryan Castle took my case and my defense. Ryan was resolutely determined, thoroughly professional, and I felt I had a friend on my side. Determination was reversed. Outcome in my favor. Case closed."
