If you are told by L & I Don't Get an Attorney-Call Jordan at Palace!

Jordan helped me through the process by explaining that L & I is not your friend and L & I does not want you to have any legal representation so they can throw you under the bus. They explained to me that I had filed my claim incorrectly and that I needed to refile. If I needed to, I would have hired... him immediately.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have had the pleasure of knowing Jordan for over a year now and I was instantly taken with his ability to relate to people and impact his community for the better. To explain, I met Jordan while volunteering to feed homeless people sleeping on the streets of Seattle. Jordan also volunteered to help me coach a team of mock trial competitors on a weeknight. His contributions paid dividends to the students who received his coaching. But I am also intrigued by Jordan’s legal acumen. Jordan wrote an insightful law review article on the developments of additive manufacturing and intellectual property law. Though Jordan understands legal issues at an academic level, his drive to help clients in need is his hallmark as a lawyer. Jordan represents a vulnerable segment of society: people who have been injured on the job. Jordan regularly finds ways to assist his clients in navigating the complex area of workers’ compensation. Lastly, I am impressed by his knowledge of legal tech!"

"When I first met Jordan, we fell into conversation like old friends...and I didn't even know his name yet! Jordan has continued to show that he is personable, passionate about technology, passionate about the law he practices, and a great speaker with excellent taste in mathematics (calculus is the best!). We are lucky to have him as a part of the PacNW legal community."

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
