Brad Bagshaw represents individuals and
businesses when they are forced to go to court to assert their rights and
his practice is focused exclusively on civil trial and appeal work. He has practiced extensively the areas of
maritime litigation, employment litigation, civil rights litigation and
general commercial litigation. He also handles aviation litigation, a
field to which he brings his perspective as a licensed pilot and flight
instructor.
Mr. Bagshaw was lead trial counsel for eight same-sex couples in their
quest for marriage rights in Anderson
v. King County, and he was lead counsel for a group of political and
civic leaders in their efforts to force a revote of Sound Transit’s $2.4
billion light rail project.
In his maritime and employment practice Mr. Bagshaw has represented the
crews of some of the largest vessels in the North Pacific fishing fleet in
disputes with their employers, and he has represented scores of other
individuals when they needed to retain an experienced trial lawyer.
He has obtained seven-figure judgments or settlements in six such cases. In the aviation area, he successfully
concluded a lawsuit for a fellow pilot and the estates of his passengers
after their airplane crashed into the trees on approach to a small
airport.
Mr. Bagshaw is a 1981 graduate of Harvard Law
School. He
served for six years as his firm’s managing partner, but now he devotes his
time to representing his clients in court. Most of his work is done
on a contingent basis; his clients owe him a fee only if they win.
Mr. Bagshaw is of counsel to the Seattle
law firm of Helsell Fetterman LLP.
Mr. Bagshaw and Helsell’s 30 other lawyers have the resources necessary to
wage any legal battle. For more information on Mr. Bagshaw, see BACKGROUND. For more
