About

Integrity. Communication. Advocacy. These are the values that are the foundation of me becoming an attorney and what you can expect from all of our interactions. Integrity drives me because you deserve reliability and honesty. Communication is fundamental because being informed about your next steps can greatly reduce unnecessary stress and make challenges more manageable. You can expect me to do my best to quickly answer your questions and keep you informed throughout your case. Advocacy is my purpose, and properly presenting your argument is just as important as its substance.The legal system can be a daunting process. Family law can be even more complicated because of its personal nature. In order to get you the best possible legal outcome I need to understand your goals. Because every person is different, I highly value one-on-one meetings because it is the best way to get to know you and your expectations.I have a background in litigation and have taken every opportunity to get into the courtroom. I know our local courts and how to counsel you about a difficult court proceeding and get you through to the other side.I am very proud of my Olympia roots. I graduated from Olympia High School. I attended Central Washington University where I got my Bachelor’s Degree in Law and Justice. I received my Juris Doctor from Washington and Lee University School of Law in Virginia. I am happy to be back home in Thurston County and have the opportunity to serve the community that has given so much to me.When I am not in the office, you can find me cooking, seeing the latest movie, attending a Mariners game, or kayaking the Puget Sound.Member of:Washington State Bar AssociationThurston County Bar Association: Family Law and Young Lawyers SectionKing County Bar Association: Family Law SectionFederal Bar Association of the Western District of Washington

I hired Brandon for limited legal when I felt like I was drowning in my pro se case and he not only helped me navigate the waters but was super honest and helpful when it came to what I needed to do for my next steps and prepared me for what was to come. With his advice my judge actually said I had one of the more well organized trial binders she has seen and he helped me navigate what should and should not go into it. When I had quick questions or concerns he was there with answers! I 100% recommended Brandon and Morris Sockle! Thank you again for everything!

I hired Brandon having only few days to respond to a case involving an a restraining order and modification. He worked over the weekend making sure that we get everything filed on time. Brandon caught errors in the paperwork filed by the opposing party who was making false claims in order to gain custody of our child. He was knowledable of the law and knew exactly how to approach the case. The case was dismissed on my behalf. Brandon responded in a very timely manner to calls and emails and was always friendly.
