Casondra J. Albrecht

Partner She/Her

Overview

Casondra is a partner in the firm’s Washington practice group. She is admitted to practice in both Oregon and Washington.

Born and raised in a tiny town in central Utah, Casondra moved to Oregon in 2008 and started working as a secretary with the firm. She completed her undergraduate degree in the evenings and eventually left to attend Willamette University College of Law.

Casondra rejoined the firm in 2014 as a law clerk. Her practice has focused on representing, advising, and defending employers in Washington State since 2015.

A successful workers’ compensation practice requires not only an understanding of the applicable law, but also the ability to help clients meet their goals. I serve my clients knowing they operate in a fast-paced field that requires focus on the details as well as the big picture. Communication is essential; I am always available to provide personalized attention and advice in a prompt manner.

In order to provide the most effective advice, I strive to continue to educate myself about changes in the legal and medical field. I understand every client has needs as unique as the claims themselves, and I develop defense strategies with those needs in mind.
