Douglas R. Dick

Attorney

Douglas became an attorney with a clear goal of guiding clients through the complexities and pressures of the legal system with confidence and compassion. Litigation is often an unavoidable reality of doing business, and when it arises, it can feel overwhelming. Douglas serves as a steady, resilient advocate that his clients can rely on to navigate challenges and pursue effective solutions.

Raised in a rural community in Alberta, Canada, Douglas developed a strong work ethic and a deep appreciation for diligence and integrity. He earned his Bachelor of Commerce degree from the University of Alberta, providing him with a solid foundation in business principles and financial decision-making. Douglas went on to earn his Juris Doctor from Gonzaga University School of Law, where he was selected as a full-time intern with the Spokane Prosecutor’s Office. In that role, he gained substantial courtroom experience, including trying a case before graduating from law school.

For more than a decade, Douglas has represented clients across a broad range of legal matters in courts throughout Washington and Idaho. He believes that effective litigators benefit from broad legal experience, enabling them to anticipate challenges and serve clients more comprehensively. As an advocate, Douglas is committed to understanding not only the legal issues at hand, but also the motivations and objectives of all parties involved, allowing him to pursue the best possible outcome at each stage of a case.

Outside of his legal practice, Douglas values spending time with his wife and children. He is a dedicated supporter of the Ridgeline Regiment Marching Band and can often be found cheering on his children at events across the Pacific Northwest.
