Sally was a Kitsap County Superior Court Judge for 19 years; between 2005 \u2013 2023.<\/p>\n
Prior to her appointment to the Superior Court bench by Gov. Gary Locke, Sally practiced law from 1986 \u2013 2004 with the King County Deputy Prosecutor\u2019s office among other law appointments.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Sally graduated from McGeorge Law School; where her Constitution Law professor was Anthony Kennedy (who later became a United State Supreme Court Justice). She also was a White House Intern before passing the Bar exam.<\/p>\n Years ago, Sally began mediating as an intern with Kitsap Dispute Resolution Center. After her bench appointment, she took several week-long mediation trainings at the National Judicial College. During her 19 years on the bench, she has successfully settled hundreds of settlement conferences \u2013 helping litigants to avoid the cost and risk of a trial.<\/p>\n It\u2019s no wonder why Gov. Locke appointed her; nor why she has been re-elected to serve our community five times. The Kitsap County attorneys loved to have\u00a0 <\/span>Judge Sally as their Settlement Conference Judge. They know that she has the knowledge, experience, skill, gravitas and desire to work hard to help their clients fairly settle.<\/p>\n The Olsen Mediation Services is proud to see Sally join the firm put her mediation and negotiation skills to work for you!<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” min_height=”560.3px” custom_padding=”9px||40px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,3_4″ _builder_version=”4.22.0″ _module_preset=”default” min_height=”832.9px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.22.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/olsenmediation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sally-Olson-Retires.png” alt=”Superior Court Judge, Sally Olson” title_text=”Sally Olson Retires” _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Superior Court Judge, <\/strong>Sally Olsen.<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/olsenmediation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Olsen-Logo.png” alt=”Olsen Mediation” title_text=”Olsen Logo” _builder_version=”4.22.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”121%” module_alignment=”center” height=”130px” custom_margin=”|||0px|false|false” custom_padding=”|50px||0px|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Sally and Her Dog, Tor on a Search and Rescue Mission.<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/olsenmediation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sally-Torr-on-Search-Boat-scaled.jpg” alt=”On a Search and Rescue Mission” title_text=”Sally & Torr on Search Boat” _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.22.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”16px” header_2_font=”Playfair Display|600|||||||” header_2_text_color=”gcid-658c7b2d-baf8-4215-85f5-33d1989b8824″ header_2_font_size=”39px” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-658c7b2d-baf8-4215-85f5-33d1989b8824%22:%91%22header_2_text_color%22%93}”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In 1993, following the birth of their son, Ryan, she joined her husband, Steve\u2019s, law practice.
