Adrienne has significant litigation and negotiations experience, having handled thousands of cases to settlement. She has tried more than 60 cases to jury verdict and court tried, arbitrated or gone to hearing for her clients on hundreds of others.
Originally from California, Adrienne worked as a criminal prosecutor in the Violent Crimes Unit of the Tulare County District Attorney’s Office before moving to Washington in 2001. From 2001 to 2004, she was an Assistant Attorney General in the Washington State Attorney General’s Office, starting in the Sexually Violent Predator Unit. She transitioned from criminal to civil practice in the Labor and Personnel Division.
Adrienne has dedicated her practice solely to personal injury since 2004, when she moved to a Senior Counsel position at Travelers Insurance Company as a dedicated Major Case Attorney. She defended her clients in premises, products, fire, commercial auto, trucking, construction, medical malpractice, brain injury, wrongful death and other catastrophic injury cases. In 2016, she took a position with Sentry Insurance Company, launching its Staff Counsel Expansion Program, opening and managing the company’s law office in Washington, and defending Sentry’s insured in non-standard auto and commercial premises cases. Adrienne has served as a court appointed Arbitrator for the King County Superior Court since 2006.
Working for insurance companies for over 17 years, Adrienne was involved “behind the scenes” and knows how to navigate the personal injury claim process. Now that she has dedicated her practice to the representation of those who have been injured and their families, she is committed to helping her clients, from start to finish, to achieve the best outcomes on their cases.
In her free time, Adrienne enjoys baking, skiing, swimming and traveling with her husband and two children.
