Why Choose Pax Law?
Excellence in Investigations
Prompt. Impartial. Thorough.
Our philosophical approach to investigations is driven by ethics and experience. We leverage intersectional experience in human resources, mediation, litigation, and employment law advice and counsel. We provide excellent service to our clients within the scope of our representation as an impartial investigator.
Focused
Pax Law is one of the only law practices in Washington devoted exclusively to workplace investigations. Our laser focus makes us great at what we do and we are honored to work with organizations throughout the state and across the country.
​
Experienced
We leverage 15+ years of legal and consulting experience across dozens of industries allowing us to hit the ground running in established and ambiguous environments. We also have deep experience working with a range of organizations, from SaaS start-ups to Fortune 50 companies, and work adeptly within diverse corporate environments.
​
High Standards
All matters are handled directly or overseen by Pax Law founder and attorney, Lea Bell. As a result of her exceptional pedigree and remarkable experience, we produce work product under the most uncompromising of standards, which we demonstrate through the quality of our work and the reliability of our results.
​
Relatable
Let's admit it. Attorneys have a bad rap and can be disconnected from the day-to-day experiences of employees and management. We break the mold. We come from humble, working class roots and deeply value the dignity of every person we interact with, from the person holding the lowest paid hourly position to the CEO. We treat all individuals with professionalism and respect.
​
High Judgment & Integrity
Our practice is rooted in ethics, integrity, and high judgment. It's what allows us to conduct truly neutral investigations that can withstand intense internal and external scrutiny, successfully mediate contentious claims, and speak frankly with employees during union campaigns. It's also why leaders turn to us as as a trusted thought partner and strategist.
​
Clients
We proudly serve a diverse array of clients. These include Fortune 500 companies who on occasion need an independent investigator to evaluate misconduct issues concerning executives or involving the potential for significant legal or public relations exposure. We also work with small to mid-sized companies who might lack the internal personnel, expertise, or neutrality necessary to conduct a timely or effective internal investigation on their own.
