Founded in 2006 by Jack Connelly, our firm is built on four core values: truth, justice, accountability, and equal access. Our attorneys excel in tackling complex legal issues, advocating for victims of corporate misconduct, government negligence, defective products, brain and spinal injuries, wrongful death, medical malpractice, insurance bad faith, discrimination, and more.
We proudly collaborate with families and attorneys across Washington and welcome partnerships. Let us support you in your pursuit of justice.
Founded on the principles of truth, justice, accountability, and equal access, our success stems from the unwavering commitment of every attorney and staff member to these values.
At Connelly Law Offices, we build strong community partnerships by taking on impactful cases that drive positive societal change. Our work extends beyond individual clients to benefit communities across Washington. We handle cases involving serious brain and spinal injuries, medical negligence, and claims against the government.
What drives us is not the size of awards but the opportunity to create meaningful change and secure justice for our clients. With tenacity and dedication, we approach each case, guiding clients through complex legal battles with purpose and resolve.
John R. "Jack" Connelly, Jr. founded the firm in 2006 with a desire to tackle the most challenging legal issues in the northwest, advocating entirely on behalf of plaintiffs. Since its inception, Connelly Law Offices has done just that, achieving significant verdicts and settlements and helping injured clients piece their lives back together. We work with attorneys throughout Washington and nationally on cases involving corporate malfeasance, government negligence, product liability, sports injuries, spinal cord and brain injuries, and insurance bad faith.
The Seattle branch of Connelly Law Offices, which can be found on the 33rd floor of the historic Smith Tower in downtown Seattle, was opened in 2014.
Alongside successes in the courtroom, the Connelly Law Offices contribute generously to community and regional organizations. We are eager to create a thriving environment in our local neighborhood in Old Town and the larger community of Washington and the Pacific Northwest, helping affect change where needed.
Our involvement includes commitment to many organizations and activities.
One thing that makes Connelly Law Offices so unique is the rich history of its location. Located in Old Town Tacoma, the building which now homes Connelly Law Offices has a fascinating history which dates back to the early years of the city of Tacoma itself.
The building was built in the early 1890s by Anthony Carr, the brother of Tacoma settler Job Carr, and was originally known as Carr’s Hall. Carr’s Hall originally served as a meeting hall and community center for local residents of Old Town Tacoma. By 1893, Carr’s Hall was converted into a Knights of Pythias Temple, Lodge No. 22 before it was eventually turned into the Jugoslav Hal by 1926. In the late 1920s and early 1930s, the building operated as a grocery store owned by Anton Busch and later, Dominic Constanti. When Constanti passed away in 1937, the building lay vacant until 1943. During this time, the building was rumored to operate as a brothel. In 1943, Dominic Constanti’s widow, Mary, converted the building into apartments. During the 1970s, the building once again lay vacant before it was purchased and remodeled in 1983 and known as Grazie’s Italian Restaurant until the early 2000s.
In 2006, Jack Connelly purchased the building and founded Connelly Law Offices. The historic building still maintains its rich history and is a great attraction for history buffs and architectural admirers alike. This historical legacy adds to the unique experience of Connelly Law Offices and is just one more reason why Connelly Law Offices is a special place for all who enter through its doors.
