SUCCESS REPRESENTING CATASTROPHICALLY INJURED CLIENTS

​

An advocate commited to giving back to the community.

 

Attorney H. Douglas Spruance III has been practicing law for over 40 years, with a commitment to justice and leading by example in the community. Doug has represented a broad spectrum of clients, through dedication to hard work, diligence, and ethics that has paid off with many settlements and judgments in excess of $4.5 million dollars. Before coming to Spokane to raise his family and return to outdoor living and sports, Doug successfully practiced in Washington D.C, New York and Los Angeles in an array of legal areas. Doug and his family moved to Spokane in 1992. Providing his expertise to those in need has made him the successful lawyer he is today.

 

Throughout his life, Doug has also worked pro bono in public service to the community. Ed Dawson wrote in a nomination letter for the Washington State Public Justice Award, which Doug won in 2011, “Doug’s public service has not come without sacrifice by him and his family of time and money. He believes this is the example he should set as a member of the legal community and the example he should be for his children.” Doug was the incorporator and co-founder of the nonprofits, “Heal the Bay” in Los Angeles and “Cup of Cool Water” in Spokane.

​

Doug has also been the pro-bono Corporate Secretary of St. John's Properties for over 25 years; owning and managing 1200 units of low income housing and currently attempting to expand more in Spokane County.

 

Earning awards and speaking through the years, Doug has benefited the legal community significantly, making friends along the way. Doug has focused on catastrophic personal injury cases, from serious car accidents to sexual abuse to nursing home abuse.

 

 

Doug takes pride in advocating for and demanding respect for each of his clients.
