McKean Evans

Firm: Plaintiff Litigation Group, PLLC
95 S Jackson Street, Suite 100 , Seattle , Washington 98104
Practice Areas: Employee Benefits
I am an attorney representing insurance policyholders and employees. After practicing insurance and employment law in Pittsburgh, PA for many years, I relocated to Seattle in 2017 with my wife, a native of the Pacific Northwest. Since then, I have continued representing insurance policyholders and employees throughout Washington and am enjoying exploring the beautiful Washington wilderness.. People I represent include: Holders of insurance policies (such as life, auto, disability, long term care, or homeowner's insurance) whose insurance companies fail to honor their obligations under their policies, for example, by unreasonably refusing to pay benefits that are due under the policy or otherwise acting unfairly.Employees whose employers discriminate against them in violation of Federal and Washington civil rights laws, for instance, through underpayment, harassment, or retaliation for complaining about discrimination. Note: I'm proud to have been well-reviewed by former clients and endorsed by other attorneys, but please keep in mind that those reviews or endorsements don't constitute a guarantee, warranty, or prediction regarding the outcome of your legal matter.
