Background: |
Spencer provides his clients with a broad array of civil litigation
experience. Prior to joining Parsons Farnell & Grein, he provided
insurance companies with coverage advice and represented insurance
companies in coverage litigation, experience that now well serves the
firm's policyholder clients. He is also lead defense counsel for a
national company in lawsuits dealing with personal injuries, contracts,
property damage and other matters. Spencer grew up in Southwest Washington. Following graduation from law school in Utah, he moved to California and began practicing law in the East Bay area. During that time, his practice emphasized insurance coverage, eminent domain, construction defect, contract, and general civil litigation matters. He returned to the Pacific Northwest in 2004 and recently joined the Parsons Farnell & Grein team. Spencer is married to Chelsea, who also grew up in Southwest Washington. They have four children, Levi, Kiara, Emma, and Caden, and together attempt to keep tabs on the four (with varying levels of success). They enjoy swimming, riding bikes, reading, sports, playing at the beach, and exploring as a family. |
