I cannot say enough good things about Eugene Wong! He helped navigate 2 very stressful business transactions with efficiency and professionalism. Without him, I know that both of these would not have ended as well as they did for me. He is always easy to get a hold of and responds to emails in a timely manner as well. It is so important to have someone you can depend on during stressful situations. Eugene never disappoints and always follows through. I appreciate that he understands his craft and his team supports him as well. When I required some advice outside the business transaction, he referred me to another attorney in his firm and she helped answer all of my questions. I am extremely thankful to have Eugene to back me up with any legal issues that arise with owning a business!

It has been truly an honor having Eugene Wong represent me as a dental practice owner this past eight years. He has assisted me from the beginning of my practice with incorporation, corporate reporting, lease negotiations, etc. Eugene is a rare find in that while he is extremely personable and kind, he is also sharp and detailed in both thought process and execution. I believe that he truly cares about the success of my practice, and I know that he will be there unconditionally should the need ever arise. For these reasons and so many more, I offer my highest recommendation of Mr. Eugene Wong.

Eugene Wong is an excellent lawyer. Recently I Engaged Eugene to help me with the sale of a property, which was a bit challenging, as it was complicated by my recent divorce. His advice and actions were exemplary. He was easy to contact and always was able to answer any questions or concerns. He solved a serious problem related to a statutory warranty deed, which was posing problems for the sale of the property. He came up with a good solution; the property was sold. I also liked the way he kept me involved all the way, which greatly aided my understanding of what was happening. I give Mr. Wong my highest regard.

We hired Eugene to help us navigate the sale of a dental practice. Eugene was very knowledgeable about the laws that govern Washington state, and guided us on contractual issues we had limited knowledge of. He also made legal issues easy for us to understand, so that we could make educated decisions, and gave well balanced advice. He helped diffuse a lot of emotions during the process, and ensured we were well represented. He really went over and above, and was available on weekends when it was needed. I would highly recommend Eugene to anyone.

Eugene was the trust attorney concerning an estate to which I had been assigned personal representative. The estate could not have been more complicated with multiple over seas employers and real property held outside the US. Eugene and his fantastic paralegal Rhoda kept me calm and informed through the entire process. This was a mid-level asset estate at best, yet despite the complicated nature of the job, Eugene and Rhoda did everything that they could to keep costs low. In the time since this experience, I have retained Eugene to represent a Non-Profit organization on whose board I sit in real estate negotiations, as well as to manage my own personal will. I cannot say enough positive things about this attorney and his high level of acumen in the areas of Trusts/Estates and Real Property.

I randomly selected several lawyers for contact and Mr. Wong was the first to respond. Immediately I could tell he was very knowledgeable about real estate and provided solutions without talking down to me (usually lawyers think clients are not as smart and I get a lot of that sometimes, especially being a woman). In few days, he contacted title company and had exceptions cleared against a less than ethical buyer and helped me understand the challenges of my situation/case. in the end, deal died, but I was happy to learn what could be done and would not hesitate to work with him and his firm again. Highly recommend to anyone who needs legal advice. Lawyers should advise and counsel like him - be solid on what can and cannot be done and what solutions are best for the situation. This way clients can make good decisions. Thank you.

Eugene Wong at Lasher Holzapfel Sperry & Ebberson is not just my counsel but a valued resource to me and my corporation. He has created a history of providing responsive and accurate expertise in a very personal, considerate, and cost-effective manner that gives the small businessman the added benefit of not hesitating to get legal advice for fear of running up billable hours needlessly as I have otherwise encountered elsewhere.
