Practice Areas: Construction & Development, State, Local And Municipal Law

I am the founder of South King County's largest law firm, and have served as a Managing Partner for all of its existence.  I conceived the firm as having Seattle/Bellevue law firm image and quality, but with the convenience and reasonable fees permitted by a Kent location.  The firm is now approaching its tenth anniversary; with eighteen lawyers - the experiment was a success!  I believe the lawyers in this firm are among the finest there are in the State.. I have over 36 years of legal experience, nearly all of it in a Partner/Leader capacity.  My own practice emphasizes the representation of municipalities, builders, developers and businesses in land use, commercial, construction, governmental and litigation matters.. I have substantial court and trial experience, including personal injury and criminal jury trials, commercial litigation, matters in the State Courts of Appeals and Supreme Court; and Federal trial and Appellate matters.  Although I still end up in Court a fair amount, more recently my cases tend to be resolved with Mediation, which I have found to be a very effective method to get my clients the best possible results at a reasonable cost.. I am regularly appointed by the King County Superior Court as an Arbitrator, and after hearing and deciding many such cases, I don't believe I have ever been appealed by the litigants.. I am married to Peggy and we have four sons - two of whom are fine attorneys with the firm.  My personal interests are photography, boating (we have a big, old Chris Craft), motorcycling (a big, old Harley), traveling, and eleven grandkids.

My practice focuses primarily on construction and real estate law. I commonly represent contractors and developers who are having problems with payment issues, warranties, contracts, bond and retainage claims, construction defects, insurance claims, and government regulation and assessments. Although my work often involves litigation, I believe that I am most successful when I can help clients resolve their problems without having to go through a lengthy, expensive and stressful court battle.. Walla Walla is a postage stamp oasis located amidst the sweeping wheat fields of southeastern Washington. Therein is situated Whitman College. I attended Whitman College for four years and graduated in 1998. Whitman College is very strong in academic achievement, and draws students who want to leave behind their home, friends, and distractions in order to face a scholastic challenge. I graduated with a degree in Economics and Environmental Studies, and then completed law school at Washington University, obtaining my law degree in 2001.. I am a partner at Linville Law Firm PLLC. I prepare and try cases, handle the various aspects of a trial practice, and present matters at arbitration and mediation. Most importantly, I work with and for the client to get the facts straight and complete before any substantial legal move is made.. Most clients don't really know whether they have a good case or a bad case. That's why they've gone to a lawyer. They want to know where they stand. They don't necessarily want to file a lawsuit or start some drama or trauma that's going to end up costing a lot of money. They want to know what their legal rights are, and what a lawyer can do to help them out of a problem. I work mostly on matters involving construction and real estate. I represent contractors who are having problems with payment, warranties, contracts, bond and retainage claims, construction defects, insurance claims, and government regulation and assessments.. A construction or real estate problem is usually resolved by applying a number of laws, going through a process of progressively getting more and better information from the client, working professionally with other lawyers, parties, or government officials, and developing a good assessment of the case with the client.. I present seminars on construction law through the Building Industry Association of Washington (BIAW) and the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries (L&I). I am certified as an approved instructor pursuant to RCW 18.85.040 by the Director of the Washington State Department of Licensing. I look forward to these seminars. I enjoy preparing for each seminar, and doing my best to be helpful to those who have taken time away from work to attend and learn.
