My Grandfather, Joseph B. Lee, was an accountant and my mentor. I learned a great deal about the IRS from him at an early age.
I studied Federal Tax Law at Seattle University School of Law in 1985. Upon graduation in 1988, I started my practice at Sterbick, Abel, & Sterbick.
I am admitted to practice before the United States Tax Court and the United States District Court.

Thanks to John Sterbick and his team of associates -- particularly Annette Williams & Lorelei Faber -- my kids are going to have a Christmas this year. I couldn't be happier with their performance.

John Sterbick was extremely helpful to my grandparents Mr and Ms Robert and Elena Cloud with their bankruptcy case. He and his staff provided a very consulate and professional environment helped them get the correct paperwork and references so that they were able to turn in all the necessary documents to the judge. There were no questions and their bankruptcy was discharged with no bias. We recommend anyone and everyone to use John Sterbick and his associates.

John Sterbick and his staff have been great. We probably asked the same questions they have heard many times before but NEVER made us feel like we were a bother. It is a relief knowing these people are in our corner and will take care of everything in a professional manner.

A tax miscalculation several years before snowballed into a significant IRS liability. John's expert and insightful analysis of the situation was invaluable. He helped guide us through the various options and then did all the negotiation with the IRS agent, resulting in a favorable repayment plan. John and his staff were outstanding, always helpful, to the point, and readily accessible. I will not hesitate to go back to him in the future if need arises.

I had been struggling for high credit card debts for years and years. It's been so difficult to live on by paycheck to paycheck making monthly payments on those debts. It was never ending but increasing more debts and troubles in my life. I was on the edge and it was impossible to find the way to keep it on any more. One day a friend of mine recommended to find a bankruptcy lawyer for help. I thought that only bad people do bankruptcy then and it made me very upset first. When I ended up to meet couple of lawyers with false or negative information it made me more upset and hopeless. But now i feel fortune to meet Mr. John Sterbick. Because he was the one helped me to get out of the hell situation with Chapter 7 filing and all my debts about $70,000 were wiped out. It only took shy three months to close since filing and wasn't that complicated either. I was able to keep my residence and two vehicles without hassle. What amazed me was his efficiency and trustworthy! He and his associates knew exactly what they were doing and very reliable! I still remember the day I received a discharge notification from the court. It was unbelievable and how happy I was! I am so very grateful for second chance given for fresh start and special thanks to Mr. Sterbick, Lorelei and Annette!

I hired John Sterbick's Law Offices to help with my back taxes. I had too many unfiled years of taxes and I owed a lot of money to the IRS. This law group got me caught up on my filings, lifted levy's again'st my wages and was professional, helpful, and caring all the way through the end. They advocated for me with the IRS and found a solution that we can all say was a success. A BIG thank you to John Sterbick and his team of professional staff!
