Baumgarten Law Office announced today that University of Idaho College
of Law graduate Christine Dow has joined the firm.
“We are extremely excited to begin working with Christine. Not only
is she an excellent attorney with a wealth of real-life experience, she
will complement our current practice by allowing us to offer expanded
services to our clients,” said Luke Baumgarten, principal. “By
hiring Christine, we will now be able to accept more family law and civil
cases in addition to expanding our footprint beyond Whitman County to
all of our neighboring counties.”
Prior to law school, Christine spent several years working closely with
executives at two major corporations developing office support functions
and generally ensuring that organizations with several hundred employees
ran smoothly. Eventually, Christine left the corporate world to pursue
her passion for gardening by becoming a horticulturist. A relocation prompted
her to begin taking classes at Western Washington University where she
excelled in an academically intense program focused on law and diversity.
Her success in this program earned her a scholarship and acceptance at
the University of Idaho College of Law.
Since her admission to the Washington State Bar, Christine has worked
extensively with Law Advocates – a legal aid organization aimed
at assisting low-income individuals and families facing urgent legal problems.
This position allowed Christine to solve a wide variety of complex legal
issues – primarily in the area of family law. It is this experience
in particular that will make Christine a valued employee at Baumgarten
Law Office.
