Daniel J. Gerl
Registered in Tacoma, about thirty-four miles south — the same distance we accepted for Ken Gerber in the Phoenix metro. His register practice areas are Criminal, Litigation, Personal Injury and Traffic Offenses, a mixed practice rather than an injury-only one. Almost everything else on this page comes from the firm's rideshare page, because his own biography is barely more than a job title.
The bar record
We read Daniel J. Gerl in the Washington State Bar Association’s legal directory. Rows shaded below the line are the ones WSBA labels as coming from the lawyer, not from the Bar.
Washington never says “none”, so neither do we. The Disciplinary History section carries no entries and no statement — only a warning that in some cases discipline search results will not reveal all disciplinary action relating to a Washington licensed legal professional, and may not display links to the official decision documents. So what we can report is narrow: no disciplinary entries are displayed, and WSBA warns its search may not display everything. That is not the sentence “this lawyer has no discipline”, and we will not write the second when the register only supports the first. Every other state we use answers out loud; this one does not.
And the shaded rows might be wrong. Above that block WSBA states that the information is provided voluntarily by the licensed legal professional and might be incomplete, inaccurate, and/or out of date. Texas calls its equivalent “self-reported”. Washington says it might be wrong. Note also the Judicial Service line: asked whether this lawyer has ever served as a judge, the register answers Unknown. A register that will print its own ignorance is rarer than it should be.
What the record shows
His register practice areas are Criminal, Litigation, Personal Injury and Traffic Offenses. That is a mixed practice, and the register says so in the self-reported block.Verified
His firm’s rideshare page is Lyft-specific and sits under a Seattle path, while his address of record is in Tacoma. The page cites RCW 4.16.080 for Washington’s three-year limitation period.Verified
The biography his firm publishes gives his name and the words Founder | Managing Attorney and little else. There is less about him on his own site than on almost any listing here.Verified
