Seattle Litigation Group, PLLC

Who the firm represents

Based in downtown Seattle, the firm represents individuals and small businesses across Washington State. The client base leans toward people rather than large corporations. That choice shapes the kind of work it takes on.

The practice covers three broad areas: employment disputes, general civil litigation, and defense of professional licenses. Each one points back to a similar client, a person or a small operation facing a larger employer, an opposing party, or a state agency. In my opinion, that consistency is the clearest signal about who this firm is built to help.

Focus and practice areas

Employment matters

Most of the firm's stated work sits in employment law. This covers wrongful termination, workplace discrimination, retaliation, and wage and hour disputes. The team also handles non-compete agreements, severance terms, and requests for disability accommodations.

These are the disputes that tend to arrive when a working relationship breaks down. The firm frames them from the employee's side. Several of its attorneys describe their own work in exactly those terms.

Civil litigation

On the civil side, the firm takes breach of contract claims, debt collection matters, and neighbor boundary disputes. These reach small businesses and homeowners more often than headlines suggest. The firm lists them in plain language.

Debt collection and boundary disputes sit slightly apart from the employment core, yet they fit the same client profile. A small business chasing an unpaid invoice, or a homeowner arguing a property line, needs a litigator who will take a modest case. The firm keeps these on its list rather than steering only toward larger claims.

Professional license defense

The firm defends licensed professionals in healthcare and education who face disciplinary or licensing investigations. A good deal of this runs through Washington agencies such as the Department of Health. The firm also represents families in cases where a student was mistreated or injured at school.

License defense is its own kind of practice. It moves through administrative hearings rather than ordinary courtrooms. Having attorneys who name that work as a focus tells a reader where the firm is comfortable.

Reach across Washington State

The firm describes its clients as spread across Washington State, not only Seattle. Employment claims, license disputes, and civil matters can arise anywhere in the state. A downtown office gives the practice a central base for that reach.

A fair amount of the work also lives in administrative venues. License defense before the Department of Health runs on agency rules and hearings, and Seth Rosenberg's own description points to reform within the administrative process. That grounding on the administrative side is worth noting for anyone whose problem is with a licensing board rather than an employer.

How the team is built

The site names eight attorneys on its team page, supported by paralegal staff. Seth Rosenberg serves as Managing Member, and his work centers on workers' rights and reform within the administrative process. Jessica Creager is a Member whose focus is professional licensure defense.

Creager represents individuals and businesses across Washington State in administrative proceedings tied to licensing disciplinary actions. That lines up directly with one of the firm's three core areas. It means the license defense work is led by someone who names it as her main practice.

The associate group

The associate attorneys carry a mix of backgrounds. Joseph Gehrke handles civil litigation and dispute resolution, including discrimination, retaliation, and wrongful termination by employers. Peter Hawkins concentrates on employment, business, and civil litigation, and works through discovery, dispositive motions, pleadings, and trial proceedings.

David Jensen focuses on employment and contract matters, often those tied to insurance, and the site notes more than three decades of legal experience along with jury trials. Ian Coleman has represented employees for more than 20 years, including over seven years in employment litigation, across trials, motions, workplace investigations, mediations, and arbitrations.

Roger Robertson represents employees with a focus on social justice in the workplace. Alex Gerard covers a wider range of civil matters, among them personal injury, administrative law, trust and estate litigation, domestic violence protection orders, medical malpractice, and wrongful death. Read together, the group is weighted toward employment work, with civil litigation and license defense filling out the rest.

What the record shows

The firm, Seattle Litigation Group, PLLC, does not list case results, settlement figures, or client counts on its site. It also does not state a founding year. There is a 2022 copyright date, and nothing more precise than that.

As a reviewer, I read that restraint as consistent with a firm that describes its work rather than its wins. The attorney pages give experience ranges, such as more than 20 years or more than three decades, but they stop short of headline numbers. A reader who wants a specific track record will need to raise it in a first meeting.

Getting started with the firm

The firm offers a free initial consultation of up to 30 minutes. That gives a prospective client a low commitment way to test whether the match fits. It also keeps the door open for the smaller cases the firm says it serves.

The plainest strength here is focus. Employment law, license defense, and civil litigation all point at the same client, the individual or small business facing a bigger opponent. A person weighing this firm can open the team page, match an attorney to their issue, and start the conversation from there.
