Advocacy for Those Who Refuse to Stay Silent

Nicole Gainey is a civil rights employment attorney licensed in Washington State. She has over a decade of experience confronting misconduct - especially related to sexual harassment perpetrated by lawyers, doctors and other "respected" professionals. She built her practice by listening deeply to her clients, digging relentlessly for the truth, and refusing to let intimidation or bureaucracy block the path to justice.

Employment Law

Few things are as central to our sense of well-being as the ability to provide for ourselves and our families. When companies unlawfully target workers based on their sex, gender, race, actual or perceived disability, or other protected status they undermine that sense of well-being.

 

Companies who engage in creating hostile work environments based on protected status, or who allow those hostilities to go unchecked, damage workers not just economically but also emotionally and psychologically and they should be held accountable in a court of law.

​

I advocate for people who show up, work hard, and get punished when they finally try to protect themselves. People who stay quiet longer than they should, but eventually say, “enough,” and speak up—only to have the system turn against them. She’s not here to play politics or kowtow to power. She’s here to call out misconduct, build your case, and shine a light where others won’t. If you’ve told the truth, acted with integrity, and now need someone who will listen closely, think strategically, and dig until the whole story comes out—you’re in the right place.

 

Attorney Nicole Gainey focuses her legal Seattle legal practice on employee side employment law in Washington State. That means she works for you not for corporations and not for the government. She seeks justice for those harmed because of their gender, or race, or because they sought to make the workplace safer or more ethical (whistle blowers). She defends the legal rights of Washington workers, and bystanders, who seek to stop gender and sexual harassment, racism, and all forms of unlawful discrimination in Washington state's workplaces.
