Superior Court judge: Anderson protects victims’ dignity

I am writing to express my full support for Mary Anderson’s candidacy for Snohomish County Superior Court, Position 12. Mary is an attorney with deep dedication to justice, particularly for survivors of domestic violence. Her work has made a profound difference in the lives of those she serves.

Having seen Mary in action, I have been consistently inspired by her passion and expertise. She approaches each case with a perfect balance of legal knowledge and heartfelt compassion, ensuring that survivors of abuse feel both protected and supported. Her ability to navigate complex legal issues while maintaining sensitivity to the needs of vulnerable individuals is what makes her exceptional.

Mary goes beyond being a legal advocate; she provides emotional support and guidance to survivors through their most challenging experiences. Her commitment to staying updated on the latest legal developments and pushing for positive change in the system reflects her unwavering dedication to justice.

What makes Mary stand out is her proactive approach to addressing systemic issues, ensuring that survivors are not further victimized by the legal process. Her empathy, combined with her knowledge of civil law, allows her to serve the community with both fairness and compassion.

Electing Mary Anderson to the bench will ensure that the most vulnerable among us are treated with the dignity and respect they deserve. I wholeheartedly endorse her for Snohomish County Superior Court, Position 12.
