Sophia Woolery began her career in family law during law school as a Rule 9 Extern at the Crystal Judson Family Justice Center in Tacoma, Washington, where she became versed in domestic violence and family law while providing pro bono legal services to survivors of domestic violence. Her work involved significant client interaction and countless mediation sessions and court appearances, which sharpened the strong trial and client advocacy skills she practices today.
