Paul William Bryan

Raised in Seattle, Paul William Bryan completed his education at Roosevelt High School and the University of Washington. He chose Kitsap as the ideal location to raise his family and establish his law practice.

Paul's career began at age 14, washing dishes at UW, and progressed to peeling potatoes at Spud Fish and Chips. During high school, he became an apprentice scenery builder at the Seattle Repertory Theater, leading to a journeyman membership with the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees Local #15.

Opting for military service over the draft, Paul served in the Navy as an Electrician and Salvage Diver. Upon returning, he rejoined Local #15, serving on the Executive Board as Business Representative and President.

Utilizing his GI Bill benefits, Paul attended college and law school, graduating from the Northwestern School of Law at Lewis and Clark College in 1983. He continued his leadership with Local #15 until family commitments led him to practice law in 1991.

With over three decades of experience, Paul remains dedicated to advocating for injured workers, maintaining his journeyman status, and helping clients navigate complex legal systems with dignity. He is proud to stand alongside his working brothers and sisters, often donning jeans as a symbol of solidarity.
