At Pathfinder Attorneys, you work directly with an attorney who provides clear, practical legal support in business law, estate planning, real estate, personal injury, civil disputes, and contract matters. Serving Renton and the surrounding communities, I believe legal help should be direct, honest, and easy to understand.
I grew up in Cortez, Colorado, near the Four Corners area, surrounded by rich culture and a strong sense of community. After earning my degree in Environmental Engineering from the University of Colorado Boulder, I moved to Seattle to work as a Geotechnical Engineer on projects across the Puget Sound.
I later followed my passion for law and graduated from Seattle University School of Law. Over the years, I have gained experience in personal injury, business, and environmental law, helping clients find clear and practical solutions to complex legal challenges.
I opened this firm to help people of moderate means access quality legal representation across multiple practice areas. Outside of work, I enjoy music, hiking, kayaking, and spending time with my wife, two daughters, and our Scottish Terrier, Princess Leia.
At Pathfinder Attorneys, my goal is simple: to make quality legal services more accessible.
I founded Pathfinder Attorneys to help individuals and families, especially those with limited financial resources, obtain practical legal advice and representation when they need it most.
In addition to my work at Pathfinder Attorneys, I am also an attorney with Fiore Legal, Inc., where I represent clients in personal injury matters. If you contact me through this website, I will personally review your situation.
Regardless of which firm is appropriate, you will have a direct point of contact from the beginning and guidance toward the representation that best serves your interests.
Renton clients are not passed between staff members or treated like a file number. Every situation gets a real, individual review.
You always know where your case stands, explained plainly, without legal terms that leave you guessing.
From workplace injuries to construction disputes tied to Renton's growth, years of experience across practice areas means guidance you can actually rely on.
I am like an urgent care for your legal needs. Whether it is an accident on Rainier Avenue South or a construction contract dispute tied to a new project near the Landing, Renton residents should not have to wait weeks for legal guidance. Pathfinder Attorneys makes it easy to connect with a licensed attorney quickly, often within a day.
Whether you are planning your estate, forming a business, or navigating a real estate or civil matter, I am here to help you make confident decisions quickly.
I provide trusted, practical legal guidance when you need it most. Serving clients throughout Renton, including the areas around Renton Landing, downtown, and the Lake Washington waterfront.
Every matter is handled with clear communication, fair pricing, and a genuine commitment to protecting your rights every step of the way.

Renton families are guided through wills, trusts, and probate with the clarity and care this kind of planning deserves.
Renton has changed fast. Boeing still anchors a large part of the local economy, new residential and mixed use towers keep rising near the Landing, and Rainier Avenue South carries more traffic than it was ever designed to handle. That growth brings a distinct mix of legal needs, from workplace and traffic related injury claims to construction and business disputes tied to the area’s ongoing development.
I represent Renton residents hurt in workplace incidents and accidents throughout the city, and I advise developers, contractors, and business owners as new projects continue to reshape downtown Renton. Knowing how this city has grown and where the friction points tend to show up helps me get ahead of problems rather than just react to them.
Results depend on each case’s specific facts. Past results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
My clients love how I make complex legal matters simple and stress free. They trust me to protect their business and help it grow.

I had an accident in the summer of 2024, and the team made the entire process so easy from beginning to end.

I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone seeking legal services.
