My primary legal focus is in juvenile criminal defense, however I also handle adult misdemeanors. I am qualified to handle Class A felonies, as well as complex sex cases. Through my work as a public defender in juvenile court, I have extensive experience in felony defense, and have taken many felony cases to trial. I am proud to offer my experience and enthusiasm to your defense, and look forward to assisting you through every step of the criminal defense process.
As a young lawyer I bring a lot of passion and energy to each case I handle. I run a growing, high-tech solo practice in Kennewick, WA. My philosophy is that law should be community-focused, and to that end I try to make my own practice as responsive as possible to this community and the unique needs of its people.
I believe in understanding clients as people rather than legal issues, and that our context in life can tell us a lot about the solutions to our problems. I view my role as a lawyer to be your strongest advocate and to find the best outcome that works for you. I pride myself on being approachable, compassionate, hard working, and having a strong sense of humor.
Now that you've read about me as a lawyer, here's a bit about me as a person: I'm a Tri-Cities native, and although I went out of the area for school it was important to me to establish a legal practice here to give back to the community that helped me grow up. I love the outdoors, and like to spend my free time with my family, including labrador retriever Gertrude, in the Badger Mountain area. Otherwise, I'm an avid reader and I enjoy participating in fundraising for the Tri-Cities Cancer Center.

Dishonest and lacks a moral compass
This AAG for DCYF fails to litigate cases with ethical standards required by law. It’s evident attorney Rado lacks empathy and her determination to keep innocent children in the system is her primary goal. Monetary compensation outweighs overall in every word she speaks in court. She has no remorse ...
"Ms. Rado is a compassionate advocate. She has a keen legal mind and is passionate about the law. She is both empathetic and responsive to her clients. I would trust her with my own case."
