Top best Environmental Lawyers in Spokane | 18 available

With over twenty years of complex commercial litigation experience, I have acted as lead trial counsel in numerous commercial cases throughout the Western United States, both in Federal and State courts. Prior to joining Lee & Hayes, I was the Managing Partner of one of Spokane, Washington’s largest law firms. After completing law school, I clerked for the Honorable Justin L. Quackenbush, Chief Federal Judge for the Eastern District of Washington. I am well versed in all types of litigation, including commercial and banking, employment, franchise, contractor and subcontractor disputes, environmental, insurance, real estate, and land use litigation.. I'm honored to have been selected for inclusion in Best Lawyers in America in the field of Commercial Litigation from 2013-2016. I'm also AV Preeminent Peer Review Rated by Martindale-Hubbell.

I represent individuals who have been seriously injured because of someone else's careless or intentional act. I also assist family representatives when a family member's death was caused by another's negligence. If you find yourself in this situation and are looking for assistance, please contact me to discuss your case. Dealing with a serious injury or death can be overwhelming and I work hard to take the legal burden off your shoulders. Ultimately, I want you to obtain justice and appropriate compensation for your loss.. I have been an attorney since 2006 and take cases throughout the State of Washington. Most of my cases and clients are in the Spokane region where our main office is located. I became an attorney because I wanted to stand up for people who would not be able to obtain justice on their own. Often times people who hurt others try to avoid responsibility for the damage caused. I am willing and able to fight for your rights and hold these people accountable, whether they are insurance companies, corporations, or governments. When we decide to work together, my promise to you is that I will be your trusted advocate and counselor for your case.. The types of injury and death cases I work on varies but generally fall into the following categories: personal injury (bicycle crashes, pedestrian crashes, auto crashes, motorcycle crashes), workplace injuries, premises liability (conditions on property causing harm), products liability (products/equipment causing harm), dog bites and attacks, medical negligence, and sexual assault and abuse.. Our firm has been recognized for its legal excellence and customer service. We take pride in the large number of satisfied clients we have served over the years. We enjoy meeting clients for the first time, taking the legal burden off their shoulders, and seeing the case all the way through to a successful result..
