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 Tukwila and the greater South King County area, the goal is simple: legal help that is understandable, approachable, and built around real people.
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.
Tukwila clients get real, focused attention on their specific situation, not a rushed conversation followed by silence. Every case is treated as its own priority.
You will know what stage your case is at, what comes next, and why, without wading through legal terminology that only slows things down.
Handling business, injury, and property matters across multiple practice areas means bringing real depth of experience to every Tukwila case, not a narrow specialty.
I am like an urgent care for your legal needs. A collision near the I-5 and I-405 interchange or a contract problem for your Tukwila business does not wait for a convenient time to happen, and it should not have to wait weeks for a response either. Pathfinder Attorneys makes it easy to reach 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 Tukwila, including businesses near Westfield Southcenter and residents affected by the busy I-5 and I-405 corridor.
Every matter is handled with clear communication, fair pricing, and a genuine commitment to protecting your rights every step of the way.
Starting a company near Southcenter or anywhere in Tukwila means getting the structure right from the beginning. I walk new business owners through every required step so the foundation is solid.
From day to day operations to bigger strategic decisions, I support Tukwila business owners with the legal guidance needed to run things smoothly and avoid unnecessary risk.

Tukwila's mix of commercial and residential property brings its own set of transaction and dispute issues. I help clients through every stage, from contract review to resolving conflicts.

Businesses operating warehouses or industrial facilities in Tukwila often face specific environmental compliance requirements, and I help make sure those obligations are met.
Whether it is a contract disagreement or a personal claim, I help Tukwila individuals and businesses resolve disputes through negotiation, mediation, or litigation when needed.
If you were injured in a crash near the I-5 and I-405 interchange or anywhere else in Tukwila, I manage every detail of your case so you can focus on recovering.
Tukwila families planning for the future receive clear guidance through wills, trusts, and the probate process from start to finish.
Tukwila runs on commerce. Westfield Southcenter draws retail traffic from across the region, warehouses and distribution centers line the industrial areas, and the I-5 and I-405 interchange is one of the busiest in the state. That combination creates two clear patterns in the legal work that comes out of this city: complex commercial contracts and leases for the businesses operating here, and a steady volume of accident claims tied to the area’s heavy traffic.
I help Tukwila business owners negotiate leases and vendor agreements that actually protect them, and I represent people injured in collisions along the interchange and around Southcenter’s access roads. Understanding how this specific corridor operates, both commercially and on the road, makes a real difference in how these cases get handled.
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.
