Her practice has emphasized guardianship, trust, probate and representing families with special needs since 1993. Ms. Balsam has chaired and spoken at legal seminars on various aspects of these practice areas as well as related ethical issues since 1998. She handles complex guardianship, trust, and probate problems; represents other fiduciaries in various roles; and engages in many aspects of personal injury settlement trust work.

She received an LL.M. Masters in Elder Law at Stetson University School of Law in 2013.. As Director of Commencement Bay Fiduciary Services, a certified professional guardian agency, she is the major decision-maker on investments, medical procedures, living arrangements and purchases for incapacitated people and trust beneficiaries.

Ms. Balsam’s firm provides a uniquely collaborative and resourceful approach to the legal issues that confront elders and the disabled by providing a range of solutions from negotiated out-of-court agreements to traditional legal advocacy.. Ms. Balsam always enjoyed spending time with her grandparents, talking about their lives and experiences, and spent a lot of time with an older neighbor discussing travel and photography when she was a youngster.  These relationships inspired her to choose elder law as a practice area when she began her own law practice in 1989.

A good legal representation of all accused of crimes is vital for our system to work. When criminal charges are brought all the power of the state is aimed at the accused. Many of my clients have limited educations, are mentally ill, or have suffered abusive relationships. Our current priorities as a society result in putting these people in jail, rather than providing help. I treat my clients with dignity and make the best of the far too limited resources provided for public defense.

My name is Tom Brown.. I have consistently received the highest possible professional rating (A-V) from Martindale-Hubbell, the most well-known attorney rating system in the country.. I have been with the same firm for nearly 40 years, serving clients in Southwestern Washington.  I’ve been handling complex business and personal litigation for most of my professional career, representing both defendants and plaintiffs. The emphasis of the firm has always been litigation, highlighting a sophisticated insurance defense practice mixed with a busy and successful plaintiff litigation practice. Our firm also handles business litigation, real estate disputes and probate litigation.. I am responsible for one of the few million-dollar plaintiff jury verdicts in the history of Grays Harbor County. We also were among the early pioneers in presenting computer-generated graphics and animation in a Grays Harbor County courtroom back in the late 1980s.. Proud of my early roots in the Legal Aid movement in America, I am honored to be the State Bar Association's appointee to the Washington State Office of Civil Legal Aid Oversight Committee, where I have served since 2005. I am currently serving as Chair of the Committee.. I return each year to serve as a volunteer in the Youth and Government Mock Trial Program in Olympia, where -- each year --the kids invariably show me how to be a better lawyer.. I am admitted to the Washington State Bar, the Nebraska State Bar, and the Federal District Courts for Nebraska and Washington. I am also admitted to the Bar of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and to the Bar of the Supreme Court of the United States. I am also admitted to the Bar of the Quinault Tribal Court.

I focus on advising closely held business owners and individuals regarding their business planning, shareholder and partner agreements, as well as business and real estate transactions.  I have extensive experience in mergers and acquisitions, shareholder buyouts/dispute resolution, commercial real estate, asset and stock purchases, commercial finance and related transactions, private placements, and executive compensation, as well as in reviewing and drafting complex business agreements.. How I Serve Clients:. I focus on listening to what clients want, and providing cost-effective advice so that clients can make good decisions.   In most instances clients do not want lengthy, expensive memos about their matter; rather they seek information about risks involved so that they can make informed business decisions.. I regularly visit my clients at their workplace, and take the time to learn about their businesses, company objectives, strategies, and opportunities.   By understanding the business objectives of clients, I am better able to provide pro-active advice in light of their business strategy.. I, and our firm, seek to be long-term, trusted legal advisors for our clients.  Fostering long-term relationships is beneficial for clients, as legal spend can be reduced and services and advice can be provided more efficiently.  When a new matter arises, understanding the business objectives of clients enables us to quickly identify possible solutions that will be consistent with these business objectives.
