PUBLIC SAFETY

Natalie Walton-Anderson former Director of Public Safety, City of Seattle

"A great testimonial can boost your brand’s image. Click to edit and add your own."

AI AND THE LEGAL PROFESSION

Sunitha Anjilvel

Former WSBA President, in her personal capacity

“Judge O'Donnell lit a fire under the legal profession in Washington and was an important voice in the first coordinated statewide discussions about both the possibility and the perils of AI.”

TEXT REMINDERS

Rep. Gael D Tarleton

WA-36 (D) retired

“Judge O’Donnell helped champion an idea for a simple, but impactful change to our state’s justice system: create a statewide text messaging program to help reduce the number of arrest warrants issued for missed court dates.  He worked with my legislative colleagues to get this program funded in the state budget.”

SECURITY IN THE COURTS

Judge Rebecca Robertson

King County District Court

“As attacks on judicial independence become louder and more dangerous, Judge O’Donnell has stood on the front lines—fighting to secure critical funding for improving safety at Washington’s courthouses. His leadership has made courtrooms safer for jurors, staff, and the public across the state.”
