Reed McClure's origins lie in Seattle's Pioneer Square where Edward Burton Palmer first opened his law practice in 1890. From the beginning he devoted his energies to establishing a firm that provided quality legal services to clients and positive contributions to the community. That tradition continues to guide Reed McClure to this day.

We offer a wide range of litigation services with special expertise in the areas of appellate, insurance, construction, health care, premises liability, and commercial disputes. We offer our insurance clients a depth of experience in coverage, bad faith, and extra-contractual claims in personal and commercial lines.

Our clients - local and national businesses, governmental entities, and individuals - welcome our practical knowledge, friendly manner and personal service approach. We are able to provide our services to clients in a timely and cost-efficient manner by ensuring our lawyers and staff are highly trained and properly motivated.

Individual lawyers are accountable to the firm and to clients for their own work product and client service.
