History
Established in 1997.
Lancaster Law Office began as a general law and litigation suburban office. As Brad's experience with the court system grew, he concluded that litigation injures, not helps, clients. Since that time, some years ago, Brad has emphasized mediation, collaboration, and non-litigated resolution of family, marital, business, and community conflicts. We have slowly limited our practice to 1) Wills, trusts, estates, and probates, 2) elder care law and care teams, and 3) divorce mediation and collaborative teams.
Meet the Business Owner: Brad L.
Brad worked directing youth programs in Presbyterian churches while studing theology, during and after college. When Brad concluded that he could not work within the church, Brad began general contracting in Washington State, focusing on painting and fine wallcoverings, mostly in mansions and mid-tier commercial buildings. When his elbows and knees wore out, he turned to law, where he has been working for the last fifteen or so years.
