WHO WE ARE

Tyler joined CMG as an associate in 2009 after receiving his law degree from the University of Washington. He became a partner in 2013. His practice consists entirely of representing regular people injured by negligent medical care.

While law school gave him the necessary degree, it was life that seasoned Tyler and gave him the experience and skills to become an effective counselor. He crewed on a commercial crab-fishing boat in Alaska; was an English-as-second-language (ESL) teacher in Taiwan; drove a taxi in Eugene, OR; helped build a sawmill in his hometown of Shelton; and worked as a carpenter’s apprentice in Seattle before entering law school.

Tyler is currently serving on the Board of the Washington State Association for Justice, an organization dedicated to supporting attorneys in Washington who represent regular people in courtrooms across the State. He has previously chaired the Medical Negligence Section, and has served as Editor of the first two editions of the Medical Negligence Deskbook. Tyler has a 10.0/superb rating through the online service Avvo.com.

Tyler’s life outside of his practice consists of spending time with his wife Danielle and their three children: Jay, Annika, and Zoe. Together they enjoy eating Thai food, dance parties, and busting each other’s chops. Tyler takes a particular interest in preparing his kids for a lifetime of disappointment that comes with being a Seattle sports fan.
