TRUTH

Our goal is to expose truth and ensure that corporate or governmental entities remain accountable and are not successful in concealing issues of negligence or misconduct. We work to hold the insurance industry responsible, to make sure that insurers abide by their contracts of insurance, and that they do not take advantage of those they commit to insuring.

Justice

JUSTICE

Our attorneys go the extra mile, taking on cases that loudly demand justice. We thrive on challenging legal issues, using the legal process to hold government and corporate entities accountable to the citizens they serve. Justice is not always the easy fight, but it is the pursuit of earned justice that motivates our attorneys.

ACCOUNTABILITY

Holding those who seriously harm or injure others accountable constitutes a fundamental pillar of our civil justice system. The Connelly Law Offices strive to sustain the integrity of our legal system, reinforcing the laws which hold public servants, corporations and other tortfeasors accountable for their actions.

EQUAL ACCESS

All citizens are entitled to representation and protection under Washington and federal law. Despite this, individuals without the capital to pay expensive attorney's fees still feel as though they are unable to legally challenge better funded offenders. This is not the case. Connelly Law Offices handle many cases on contingency fees which allow access to the Courtroom.
