I would like at this time to take a moment to thank your firm for the wonderful outcome that was accomplished for Avalon Condominium Owners Association. Thanks particularly go to Jeremy Stilwell and Angie Bagby for their efforts, attentiveness, patience and sincerity. The time that Jeremy and Angie took to come to our Board meetings and explain the process and keeping the Board informed as we moved on toward arbitration was greatly appreciated. Dean Martin's skill in the arbitration was phenomenal; as shown in the settlement that was attained for our Condominium defects. The homeowners couldn't be more pleased with the outcome, all of our defects have been taken care of and no assessments had to be made.

If your homeowners' association is looking for a dedicated staff, you'll find them at Barker Martin. Our HOA had been in discussions with the developer for some time, but had made little progress. Barker Martin explained the process clearly, always kept us up-to-date, and worked extremely hard to bring the situation to a successful ending. They work not just for you, but with you. Our construction project is within days of completion. There is no way we could have accomplished it without Barker Martin.

They initially take the time to get to know your community and strategically draw from their team's areas of expertise in addressing and delivering sound resolutions. Barker Martin is invaluable in exceeding the needs of the HOA by ensuring the board of director's understanding and execution in HOA matters while operating with cost sensitive efficiency. In serving on multiple HOA boards, I have found Barker Martin to be a resource I would not want to be without. I highly recommend them without hesitation.

Barker Martin, and especially Dan Zimberhoff, represented the Stoneybrook Homeowners Association on a particularly difficult construction liability litigation. They were of great assistance during the mediation process and helped achieve a settlement which was better than we really had expected given the circumstances. We can recommend Barker Martin as a competent and responsible firm to work with.

Jonathan A. Hayes, Board Secretary
Stoneybrook Homeowners Association

The long journey toward new CC&R's is now over, with deep-felt thanks to both of you. Without your experience-based wise counsel, we would not have succeeded. I, for one, very much appreciate your sincere support, prompt responses and accountability in billing. When an occasional misstep happened, you stepped in to correct it without additional charges.

Attorneys often hear only the slings and arrows of grumblings from clients, the Bench and from other counsel. So, I like to applaud good counsel when they appear before me. Good job, well done.

Honorable Judge Judith R. Eiler
King County District Court Judge

Barker Martin obtained an excellent result for our cohousing condominium association. Though the statute of limitations had expired on our breach of warranty claims, Barker Martin was able to successfully prevail on alternative claims against the Declarant of our condominium. Dan Zimberoff was able to work with other attorneys to successfully navigate complicated insurance and other liability issues, resulting in an outcome that far exceeded our expectations. Even though our claim has been settled, Dan continues to assist us on the daunting remediation process, including reviewing contracts and providing counsel at no additional fee. Barker Martin's work on our case was crucial to our successful legal outcome. We would definitely recommend them to other entities faced with tough legal challenges.

Meg Ludlum
Duwamish Co-op Condominium Association

I cannot provide a strong enough recommendation for the entire Barker Martin team! They provided sterling legal representation for our condominium association involving complex construction defect claims. Dan Zimberoff and the entire Barker Martin team obtained a terrific result for the homeowners in the underlying construction defect lawsuit, and then when the insurance company for one of the subcontractors refused to participate in the settlement, they aggressively pursued bad faith claims against the large insurance company for the contractor. Though it took two trial court judgments, two court of appeals' opinions and a Washington Supreme Court decision, we withstood the insurance company's attempt at "war of attrition" and prevailed with a multi-million settlement. Throughout the entire process, Dan Zimberoff and the entire Barker Martin team exhibited extraordinary determination, resourcefulness and legal acumen. At the end of the case, not only was each of the homeowners reimbursed for all costs, but Barker Martin had also made new law in Washington favoring insurance policy holders. We would never want to have to repeat the process, but if we had to, we wouldn't want anyone else representing us other than Dan Zimberoff.

The Barker Martin team acted swiftly to help our community recover costs to repair the hidden defects in our buildings when time was of the essence. They put us at ease, answered a myriad of our questions, and supported us to the victorious end. Thanks Barker Martin; you saved our community!
