LUKE GARCIA
Founder and Principal Attorney
Luke Garcia was born and raised in the state of Washington and attended the University of Washington where he was awarded a degree in History and English. He attended the University of California Davis School of Law at King Hall where he focused his studies on negotiation and alternative dispute resolution, i.e., arbitration and mediation.
While at King Hall, Mr. Garcia founded the King Hall Negotiations Team, a student organization that increased the awareness of how negotiation interacts with the law. The team has gone on since it’s founding to win both the national and international negotiations competition and continues to grow in prestige.
After law school, Mr. Garcia went to work for a very high volume law firm, representing clients in Bankruptcy, Business Transactions, and Real Estate. He established the majority of the law firm’s litigation and motion practice, while managing a staff of 3 legal assistants, 8 paralegals, and 4 attorneys.
After leaving that firm, Mr. Garcia established The Law Office of Luke Garcia in 2012. The very first rule he made for the firm is that each client will receive quality and compassion. That rule launched the firm’s mission statement: “Quality you trust and Compassion you deserve”.
Mr. Garcia has been featured on television and radio as an experienced authority on Bankruptcy, Business, and Real Estate Law. Additionally, he has spoken to community groups and professional associations as a guest lecturer. He frequently goes back to UC Davis Law School to serve as a guest speaker on Negotiation Theory in the legal practice world.
In his time off, he enjoys hiking, camping, playing guitar, and chess; as well as spending his time with his family and their dogs.
