Our lawyers

One file, three desks

Each of us works from one office and takes cases from all three. You’ll know who your lawyer is from the first meeting.

How we split a case between offices

Your case has one lawyer who answers for it, and one file the three of us can open. If your lawyer is in court, someone who knows your case picks up the phone.

We meet every Monday to go over open cases. A crash on I-90 might start with a call to Coeur d’Alene and end in a Spokane courtroom; nobody has to start over.
