Wayne P. Pellegrini 1636 3rd Street, Marysville, WA 98270

"This experience was very negative, and afterward, we discovered that Mr. Pellegrini was playing both sides which kept us stuck when a solution could have been easily found. My ex and I decided to meet after mediation on our own to try to work through our stuck points, and we reached an agreement in 30 minutes — when Mr. Pellegrini had us in mediation over 7 hours in a deadlock. The solution was very simple, and when we were able to communicate directly to each other, we discovered easily where Mr. Pellegrini kept very important details from each other during the mediation. Instead of supporting us to understand each other, he spoke to each of us in a very inflammatory manner. For example, he told me that my ex was “being very childlike and will not agree to your terms.” While on the other side, he would go to my ex and tell him I was “crying constantly and only here for money.” None of this was true. We spent nearly $7,000 in one day in fees to Mr. Pellegrini and attorneys, and came to a stalemate. I would highly advise against using this mediator."

"Mr. Pellegrini and his whole staff are professional and make a very stressful situation a little less unpleasant. The only thing that really surprised me was when Mr. Pellegrini informed me that the opposing party was being very agreeable, which was different than what the paperwork showed as it kept being returned to their original demands instead of making any compromises. Even mediators can get the wool pulled over their eyes I guess, but other than that little hiccup I believe that he did try to help us both come to agreement we could be happy with. Here’s the most important part: Mr. Pellegrini is a major hottie!!! So if you have to go through this miserable experience, at least you can have some eye candy lol! That is my professional opinion."

"Wayne Pelligrini was biased in mediation and favored the other attorney who brought him a lot of business. I have friends who have told me the same thing. Do not use him."

"I felt very comfortable and confident that the best outcome was reached on my behalf. And Wayne is a super nice guy as is his entire staff."
