Balancing Work and Play

by John R. Christensen

Hello to everyone in the Blogosphere.  This is my first foray into “blogging” so I thought I would start by telling you a little about me and what we do here at the MBC Law Firm. 

 I grew up in beautiful Salt Lake City and attended the University of Utah, graduating with two degrees in English and Political Science.  “Go Utes!”  I moved to the Great Northwest in 1986 and attended the University of Puget Sound, School of Law. “Go Loggers!”  After graduating I worked for the Washington State Attorney General’s Office representing the Department of Corrections and the Department of Labor and Industries, where I met my beautiful wife Penny Allen, who turned out to be a University of Washington graduate.  “Go Dawgs!”  In 1994 I started with the MBC Law Firm and haven’t looked back. 

When I’m not working on cases you will find me playing guitar or tending to my oyster farm.  But my real passion in life, and what we do best at MBC, is helping people.  When people call our office they are usually in some state of distress.  Whether it’s a car accident or a loved one who has passed away, I do my best to listen and give them the best advice I can. 

I look forward to continuing this blog and talking about local and national events and developments in the law that affect our community.  Don’t expect only law related topics on this blog…..from time to time I will slip in tidbits about guitars, oysters, and old cars just to keep a good balance of work and play. 

Working with the MBC team of attorneys and staff, and helping accident victims regain the shattered pieces of their lives is something I look forward to each and every day. 

Sincerely,

John R. Christensen

Attorney at Law
