Phil S. Neale

I chose to pursue a legal career because it allows me to help clients find practical solutions to real world challenges.  I find it satisfying to strategize and reach business solutions which benefit my clients.  Closely interacting with clients and understanding their needs underlies everything I do.  It is very satisfying to finalize a deal, resolve a dispute, or devise a legal strategy that benefits my clients and reflects the outcome that they want.  My practice has given me the opportunity to serve clients in a variety of settings.  Although my current focus is on business transactional work, I also have experience in litigation so I understand how to deal with and, if possible, avoid legal conflicts.  My broad experience allows me to successfully pursue my client-focused practice.

After graduating from law school in California, I decided to relocate to Washington.  I have family in Washington and have always loved the beauty of the state.   I enjoy hiking and snowboarding in my free-time.  Washington’s outdoor lifestyle and Seattle’s sophisticated business environment make it a perfect place to practice law and thrive.
