Attorneys

Born and raised in Aurora, Colorado, Eric obtained a B.A. in Political Science from the University of Colorado at Boulder in 2011. In 2014, he moved to Spokane, Washington to attend the 2-year Accelerated Program at Gonzaga University School of Law. In addition to traditional coursework, he participated in the school’s business law and medical-legal partnership clinics, providing legal assistance to clients for a wide range of issues, including contract drafting, business formation and regulation, and landlord-tenant law. In 2016, he graduated with honors and became a member of the Washington State Bar Association. Since then, he has primarily practiced in criminal defense, including working as a public defender in the city of Everett for several years. In his role at our firm, he continues to practice criminal law, in addition to family law and immigration law.
 
All too often, the legal system is a dehumanizing experience, especially for defendants. Through his client-oriented philosophy, he has achieved success in trial as well as brokering positive results for his clients, most importantly making sure that each and every client is treated with the respect and dignity they deserve along the way. When he is not in the courtroom, he enjoys seeing all that the Pacific Northwest has to offer, whether it be going on road trips throughout the state with his family or visiting local breweries and restaurants.

Behrad received his BS in Engineering and Computer Science from Seattle Pacific University. He went on to earn his JD from Seattle University School of Law School in 2014. Behrad began his legal career shortly after law school representing clients as an attorney in immigration matters in the greater Seattle area, later broadening his practice to family law at Snohomish County Legal Services Clinic. Due to his work in immigration, Behrad brings extensive experience to his practice at the firm. He enjoys classical music, chess, backgammon, travelling, and spending time with his family.
