Natasha E. Staton
Natasha E. Staton has exclusively represented injured workers since 1993. She received her undergraduate degree in Political Science from the University of Washington in 1990, and earned her law degree from the University of Puget Sound School of Law, now Seattle University Law School, in 1993. She is a member in good standing with the Washington State Bar Association (WSBA) and Washington State Association for Justice (WSAJ), and is also the featured author on workers’ compensation case planning and strategy in WSAJ’s Workers’ Compensation Deskbook (2009).
Ms. Staton is a highly competent, compassionate, and successful advocate for injured workers. She credits her modest roots and upbringing for her career path and passion for helping individuals injured at work. A Montana native, she comes from a blue collar family, and her husband of over 20 years also works in the trades. Helping hard working folks overcome the adversity of an oppressive insurance system brings her immense satisfaction, and she is grateful to have found her calling so early in her career. When not in the office, Natasha enjoys exploring Washington’s amazing wilderness, traveling to far off places, and absorbing all aspects of the arts including film, live theater, and music.
