Jacqueline Clark

Biography

Jacqueline Clark practiced Family Law for over 7 years in Canada prior to moving to Washington State. After her move to WA, Jacqueline took some time to raise her three children before her own divorce and eventually decided to return to law as a paralegal in 2011. She worked as a paralegal while she earned her LLM for from Seattle University in 2020 and became a Member of the Washington State Bar in 2021. As a trained Life Coach and Attorney, she is an excellent listener. She understands most parents want to minimize the impact of their separation on their children and to resolve their disputes privately and cost-effectively. Her training as a life coach assists her in understanding the family dynamics, keeping the resolution process as amicable as possible, and assisting her clients through both the legal and emotional hurdles of divorce.
