We Are Friends to Seamen and Passengers
Dedicated attorneys, Gordon Charles Webb and John Merriam have more than 55 years of combined experience in maritime and admiralty law. We have the know-how and skill to resolve your legal issues but, unlike some larger firms, we will never sacrifice the personal service and individual attention you need.
John, in the Seattle office at Fishermen’s Terminal, was a merchant seaman for 12 years while working his way through college and law school. He has practiced maritime law since 1982.
Gordon, in the Bellevue office near Lake Washington, was a commercial fisherman and boat builder before starting to practice law in 1993. He has an L.L.M. (a Master’s Degree in Admiralty and Maritime Law) from Tulane University Law School.
