He emphasizes open communication and cooperative strategic goal setting to achieve favorable resolution of claims.

Prior to joining Lewis Brisbois, Will worked as a legal editor for a leading HR and compliance provider in the small to medium-sized business space. He tracked employment laws from introduction through enactment and ensured that the company’s extensive library of laws, rules, and regulations was accurate and up to date.

During law school, Will clerked for the Oregon Federal Public Defender, externed with the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, and practiced as a Certified Law Student with a major insurance provider. This diverse and oftentimes hands-on experience provided Will with the experience and know how to launch into practice.
