Firm: Eric Chavez
1102 A St , Tacoma , Washington 98402
Practice Areas: Personal Injury, Insurance, Wrongful Death, Medical Malpractice
I am a trial lawyer committed to helping individuals and their families reclaim their lives after losing a loved one or suffering injury because of the negligence of others. I began my legal career working as a defense attorney for an insurance company. Through taking cases to trial and countless arbitrations, I saw first-hand how insurance companies can quickly lose sight of the human aspect of injury and insurance claims, viewing cases merely as business concerns to be settled cheaply or hard-fought, regardless of cost. Later in my career, I defended insurance companies in bad faith litigation. Currently, I represent injury victims in personal injury, traumatic brain injury, insurance bad faith, medical malpractice, medical device defect, and product liability cases.. Prior to entering law school, I worked as a property and casualty claims adjuster for two national insurers, handling wildfire and mudslide catastrophe claims in California, as well as mid to large loss claims arising from hurricanes in the Southern U.S.. My experience both as a claims adjuster and lawyer taught me that in order to obtain the best settlement, you have to show the insurance company and/or the defense you are willing and prepared to take the case to trial. For this reason, I prepare every case as if it is going to trial from day one.

Firm: Wallace & Whitford Law, PLLC
901 South I Street , Tacoma , Washington 98405
Practice Areas: Land Use & Zoning, Municipal , Personal Injury, Personal Injury
John grew up in Tacoma, graduating from Stadium High School and obtaining his Bachelor’s Degree in Communication from the University of Puget Sound. He first thought of becoming a lawyer in high school after studying the civil rights movement. After learning of the horrible injustices suffered, and how the law was fundamental in facilitating social justice, he began dreaming of becoming a lawyer someday. His dream became reality when he graduated from Seattle University School of Law. He graduated with top honors and his class rank was number 8 out of approximately 350 students.. John began working for a Tacoma personal injury and workers compensation law firm in 2003 while in law school. He fell in love with helping injured individuals fight against the government or large insurance companies who were trying to take advantage of the clients. He also discovered that through holding wrongdoers accountable, society as a whole is made a little safer. Many of our nation’s safety regulations and practices stem from personal injury lawsuits. Through the brave men and women who elect to pursue their rights, change is made through better, more reasonable safety practices. After law school John accepted a job at a fairly large firm in Seattle, where he focused on employment and consumer protection class actions. After approximately a year, the law firm where he had worked in law school offered him a job representing injured individuals. He accepted that job and shortly thereafter became a partner at the firm. That firm dissolved in 2012 when one of the founding members, Stanley J. Rumbaugh, was elected to be a Superior Court Judge. Stan was John’s mentor, and when he left the firm John decided to join one of the largest firms in Tacoma. John was very successful at this new firm and quickly became a partner. However, he always had a dream of opening his own law firm. That dream has now become reality. John is blessed in many ways. He knows his success is intrinsically tied to satisfying his clients needs and expectations. He works hard to make sure every client’s needs are met to their satisfaction. Hard work, honesty, and open communication are the core values of John’s practice.

Practice Areas: Personal Injury
When I am not practicing law, I love to travel. My favorite travel spot is China because it is so different from the U.S. I graduated from Seattle University Law School and have been trying to help the little guy ever since. The majority of my cases are in the areas of real estate, condemnations, construction, personal injury, and medical malpractice, but I can help you with just about anything. My other areas of interest are police searches, drug and blood evidence, lab standards, and toxicology issues. I used to work on a lot of cases involving police dog "alerts" and police blood results, so I know a little more about science than the average lawyer. I live in Seattle and work in Tacoma, so I can meet you anywhere you like. Please let me help you with your legal work and then tell me about your favorite place to travel.
