I am very active in the community through service on not-for-profit board of directors. I am currently the eastern Washington representative on the Washington Officials Association Executive Board.

"Kammi is an extremely hard working attorney with employment law experience on both sides of the equation. While some employment lawyers typically do work for either the employer or the employee(s), Kammi has successfully represented the interests of defendant employers and plaintiff employees. Having personally operated a business with 20+ employees, and having sat 2nd chair with Kammi at a jury trial in 2010, I feel very confident in the skills and abilities of Kammi Smith."
