Championing Justice Across the Pacific Northwest VOTED CASCADE’S BEST LAW FIRW

GLP ATTORNEYS

In the realm of law, success is often measured by wins, the impact a firm has on its community, and the lives it touches. GLP Attorneys embodies all these elements, weaving a narrative of successful advocacy, compassion, and community service into every aspect of its practice. Let’s delve into what sets this firm apart and how it’s shaping the landscape of personal injury law across the Pacific Northwest.

Client-Centric Expansion

GLP Attorneys’ journey began in the heart of downtown Seattle, where its founders laid the groundwork for a firm deeply rooted in its service to clients. Today, with 14 law offices and 150 people strategically located across the Pacific Northwest, GLP Attorneys has expanded its reach, driven with intention and by a genuine desire to serve communities where its clients reside. Every office represents more than just a physical presence; it’s a pledge of unwavering support and involvement in the local fabric.

Quality Over Quantity

In a field often characterized by mass advertising and impersonal representation, GLP Attorneys stands out for its dedication to quality over quantity. Eschewing traditional marketing methods, the firm relies on word-of-mouth referrals from healthcare providers, fellow attorneys, and satisfied clients. This approach fosters genuine relationships and allows the attorneys to deeply understand the needs of each person they represent.

Diverse Expertise, Unified Mission

With a team of 33 personal injury attorneys spread across multiple states, GLP Attorneys boasts a wealth of knowledge in various areas of practice, including car accidents, bicycle collisions, motorcycle crashes, trucking accidents, traumatic brain injuries, construction injuries, fire and burn injuries, maritime injuries, and wrongful death cases. Every attorney is licensed in Washington, with many holding licenses in other states as well, including Idaho, Oregon, California, Arizona, New Mexico, Maine, New Hampshire, New Jersey New York, Pennsylvania, and Florida. This diverse and strong team allows the firm to handle a wide variety of personal injury cases while staying attuned to the nuances of each jurisdiction.

Advocacy Beyond the Courtroom

For GLP Attorneys, the pursuit of justice extends far beyond the confines of the courtroom. The firm actively engages in community service initiatives, supporting organizations dedicated to civil justice advocacy, access to legal services for disadvantaged classes, and championing causes that protect citizens’ rights. Whether it’s advocating for legislative change or volunteering time and resources, GLP Attorneys is committed to making a positive impact in the communities it serves.

Unparalleled Resources

The shareholders of GLP Attorneys intentionally created an organization that could increase in scale without sacrificing quality of service. All leaders of the firm, including the attorneys, have multiple opportunities weekly to collaborate via all-firm meetings, regional gatherings, and client focused action plan events. The firm supports our attorneys and business leaders to actively participate in community advocacy efforts as well as provides resources and support for organizations such as the Washington State Association for Justice.

Unique to the firm and a testament to their quest for excellence in client service is its motions department, trial committee, learning and development programs, and technology resources. Fostering an environment of continual learning and sharpening skills sets contributes to the attorney teams’ success in mediations, negotiations, and achieving high awards for settlements and verdicts.

Looking Ahead

As GLP Attorneys continues to evolve and expand, its commitment to client satisfaction, accessibility, and community engagement remains steadfast. With eyes set on the future, the firm remains poised to tackle new challenges, advocate for justice, and uplift communities across the Pacific Northwest.

In a neighborhood park, amidst darkness and fear, he stood up for a friend in need, confronting a bully with nothing but determination and compassion.
