About Joseph
Biography
Joe grew up in Western Washington, and returned back to the area after completing his college education. Prior to law school, Joe completed a master’s degree in theology at Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California. Afterward completing his theology degree, Joe chose to go to law school, because in his words, “I believed the legal profession would allow me to make a practical difference in the lives of others.”
Joe worked full time throughout law school. Despite a very full academic and professional schedule, he graduated magna cum laude in the top 10% of his class from Seattle University School of Law with his Juris Doctor. In his last year of law school, Joe worked as a law clerk at a firm in downtown Seattle that focused exclusively on representing persons wronged by their insurance company or individuals who suffered a personal injury.
Joe says, “I feel lucky to be able to practice law in areas where I get to represent individual people who need legal help to overcome a crisis. I believe that ‘injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.’ I fight hard for what I believe is right and just, often against insurance companies who have either lost or simply never possessed the ability to understand loss.”

Great first meeting.
Joseph gave me a full hour of his time, and is investigating my case whereas another lawyer gave me just 30 minutes of his junior associate's time and bailed without giving much of an explanation why he wasn't taking my case. Joseph explained the possible opportunities and challenges with my case an...

Proactive, professional, honest, caring... Couldn't ask for better service!
After some challenges with my first attorney (7 months and it was not going anywhere), I hired Joseph. He was amazing at communicating with me through the phone and email explaining to me the situation and options. He had worked on cases with the same insurance before, so he knew what was the best wa...

Effective and professional
I had a personal injury claim stemming from an MVA that was not my fault. As an attorney myself, I initially thought I could handle my case against the opposing insurance company on my own. I didn't get very far and was getting extremely frustrated after 2+ years of attempts to negotiate. I was fo...
