I have been a licensed attorney for over 20 years and am experienced with all aspects of litigation, from initial investigations and formal discovery to trial and appeals. My practice is currently devoted to indigent criminal defense.
I am admitted to practice in the state of Washington, including the U.S. District Court - Western District of Washington and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.
I grew up in the Puget Sound area and now reside on the Olympic Peninsula. I wholeheartedly believe my golden retriever is more photogenic than me, though she does take after her "momma" in terms of thoughtful expressions and the occasional raised eyebrow. My hobbies include digital photography, writing and home remodeling. I participate in fundraising for various animal welfare groups and Multiple Sclerosis research and remain hopeful that there will soon be a cure for this terrible disease.

Christi helped our business resolve various legal issues in the last two years and was always very professional, knowledgeable and responsive. She reviewed business contracts, consulted on employee/employer labor issues, and general contract review. We would definitely use her again.

Christi Goeller has the unique combination of professional demeanor and approachability, not to mention that she is as smart as a whip. When my wife and I were named as defendants in a frivolous law suit Christi helped us develop a strategic path forward. If you find yourself in need of a strong an...
