Donahue law: Defending the accused in Washington, Idaho and Federal courts.
My name is Pat Donahue.
I am originally from Keene, New Hampshire- the ‘Live Free or Die State.’
My wife and I moved to Spokane in 2011 and immediately fell in love with Eastern Washington. We are proud to call Spokane our home.
I am an avid outdoorsman, and enjoy taking full advantage of all the Inland Northwest has to offer. When I am not defending the rights of the criminally accused, I will most likely be found camping out in the wilderness with my wife Laura and dog Montag, or skiing in the mountains. I find that spending long days on the trail and nights under the stars helps me stay sharp in the office and in court. A close friend once described her time in the woods as an opportunity to ‘iron out’ her mind- I couldn’t agree more.
In September of 2013, I spent a month at Gerry Spence’s Trial Lawyers College. While interning, I was afforded the opportunity to study trial law with some of the nation’s top trial lawyers. It was an unforgettable experience that taught me more about trial law than I could have ever learned stuck behind a desk piled high with books in a windowless classroom.
Upon graduating law school, I spent two years as a trial lawyer litigating insurance issues. However, because my passion is for criminal defense, in 2016 I decided to open my own firm.
Currently, I represent clients in Spokane and all over Washington state.
I am not afraid to fight for what is right and just, and would love the have the opportunity to meet you.
-Pat
