also known as Steve Knapp
I have been practicing law in Washington for more than 30 years, including three years prosecuting criminal cases as a Deputy Prosecutor in Whatcom County. I have been a solo and/or lead attorney on more than 40 jury and bench (Judge) trials and more than 150 arbitrations and mediations. I have served as an MAR Arbitrator and Settlement Guardian Ad Litem on King County’s Approved SGAL List. I have handled seven figure wrongful death and serious injury claims, premises and products liability cases, all types of motor vehicle accidents, dog bites and construction site injury cases.
I am innovative and creative in litigation and discovery. I am also a tough negotiator in settlement and have obtained numerous favorable results in mediation and directly with opposing counsel. My preferred approach to litigation is to try to work cooperatively with opposing counsel during pre-trial discovery and all other aspects, whenever possible. However, I have the experience to take a case from inception all the way through a jury trial and to the Court of Appeals, if necessary.
My office is conveniently located at 19105 36th Ave West, Suite 206, in Lynnwood, WA, 98036. See my website for a map. Easy access from Lynnwood and from I-5 and I-405.

Personal injury settlement
Steve took on my personal injury case and was successful in getting me, what I feel was, a fair settlement. I also believe he went the extra mile in working with our insurance company and medical providers. Steve made it clear that the most important aspect of my case was my personal health and welfa...

Steve Knapp is honest, reliable and hard working.
Steve was absolutely amazing. I would recommend Steve to anyone who was looking for a personal injury lawyer. He was so incredibly trustworthy and diligent. Once I found him I did not have to worry about a thing. I knew I could trust his advice and to get everything taken care of.

Mr Knapp is an experienced attorney who did a great job for us.
My son was bitten on the face by a pit bull dog. My husband was serving in the Military in Iraq at the time, and we needed help with our claim. The first attorney I hired was nice, but was not aggressive in representing my son’s interests. Later, Steve Knapp took charge of my son’s case and he w...
"Having opposed Steve on a case, I can attest he is an excellent lawyer. Ethical, hardworking, and endowed with a keen intellect, he inspires fear in opposing counsel just as he engenders respect for his meticulous professionalism. He exemplifies the best of what a good advocate should be."
"I endorse this lawyer. After watching Steve defend personal injury cases for years, I decided that we needed him on our side and asked him to become a partner at Brett Murphy."
"Steve's approach to problem solving is practicle and reasonable. Having fair minded and reasonble attorney who not only has the ability to get good results, but explain the process in a clear understandable way is crucial, not only for your outcome but your satisfaction with the legal process. Steve meets all of those goals."
"In personal injury, Steve's years of knowledge and experience make him an excellent attorney and a valued resource. I endorse this lawyer."
"Steve is a terrific lawyer with experience on both sides of personal injury matters. This gives him a unique perspective when helping clients obtain the best possible results after an accident changes their lives. I would not hesitate to recommend Steve."
"I endorse this lawyer. I consider Steve both a mentor and friend. Steve is one of the most patient, thoughtful and kind lawyers I have known. While these types of descriptors may seldom be used when describing lawyers, such qualities can make a world of difference in the outcome of any given case. I frequently call on Steve when I have a question that needs answering, or when I have a case strategy question I want to bounce off another attorney. Perhaps the best endorsement of all is that I would refer my family members to Steve without hesitation."
"Steve is well-known in the community as a tough but compassionate advocate with a superb record of obtaining justice for his clients. I endorse Steve without hesitation."
"I know and trust Steve Knapp's legal abilities. I have consulted with Steve on several matters including personal injury, insurance coverage, and employment cases and found his insights to be immensely helpful."
"I consulted with Steve on matters outside my own expertise, and found him to be extremely helpful. He was personable, knowledgeable, and thorough in providing the information I needed. He has continued to be a great resource to me and I highly recommend him."
