About Sam Gordon
Sam was born and raised in Arizona, attending Saguaro High School and earning his Bachelor’s degree from ASU after serving four years in the United States Army, assigned to 2nd Ranger Battalion. Sam then worked for several years as a process server and licensed private investigator before attending law school. Sam then moved to Spokane, Washington, where he attended Gonzaga University, School of Law. After earning his Juris Doctorate, Sam got married, and started practicing family law in 2006. Later, Sam moved to Seattle to work as a Pension Investigator for the Employee Benefits Security Administration with the U.S. Department of Labor. As a federal investigator Sam was responsible for analyzing corporate governance practices and compliance with fiduciary duties requiring Sam to review financial statements, investment decisions, and interview high-level corporate officers to determine whether or not they were compliant with ERISA, a highly complex area of federal law. This role offered Sam the financial training he employs today when evaluating the assets and financial portfolios of his clients and the opposing party. In 2016, Sam and his family decided to move back to Arizona, where he continued to exclusively practice in the area of family law. Since 2006, Sam has represented hundreds of clients engaged in divorce, parenting conflicts, and disputes over high-value assets that include trusts and family businesses. While he prides himself on the use of outside-of-the-box thinking and sound mediation strategies to settle the majority of his client’s cases, Sam has achieved great success in the courtroom as well. Sam never backs away from a challenge. As a father, Sam is able to relate to parents facing child-related disputes, and as a child growing up in a one parent household, Sam understands the impact divorce has on parents, children, and their families. As a veteran who served as a Ranger in the infantry, Sam can relate to his clients who roll-up their sleeves to perform hard work to support a family. Sam’s life experience and legal training have positioned him perfectly to rise to any legal challenge and to advance his client’s goals.
