Toby brings particular expertise to Pacifica’s public finance practice in the areas of federal securities law, state tax and election law, and public school finance.
Both Rebecca and Toby contribute significantly to the growth of the firm and embody its commitment to public service. Rebecca leads the firm’s E-Discovery Committee and volunteers with nonprofit and legal industry organizations, including WithinReach and the the Washington State Bar Association Legal Technology Task Force’s Impact on Courts Workgroup. Toby is a member of Pacifica’s Equity and Inclusion Team, and also serves on the Civil Topics Committee for the Washington State Association of Municipal Attorneys and on the Board of the Puget Sound Finance Officers Association.
