About Craig
Craig Wright built his legal foundation at the University of Washington, where records show he earned a J.D. in 1991 and a B.A. in 1995. He remained tied to the state’s legal and academic circles after law school, cultivating ties that later shaped his professional life.
Wright joined Gordon Thomas Honeywell LLP and rose to partner. His work brought him before courts at several levels. He is admitted to practice in Washington, in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington, and at the U.S. Supreme Court. Those admissions reflect a practice that extends beyond local matters to litigation and filings in federal venues.
On the administrative and institutional side of legal education, Wright has been active with the Washington Law School Foundation. He has served on the foundation’s board since 2007 and has been chair of its audit committee since 2009. Those roles place him at the intersection of law, governance, and oversight for one of the state’s legal institutions. He also holds current membership in the Washington State Bar Association, maintaining the professional standing required for his courtroom and advisory work.
Throughout his career, Wright’s practice has involved litigation and counsel for clients facing complex legal questions. He has navigated civil litigation in state and federal courts and engaged in the procedural and substantive matters that such cases demand. He has represented clients in court proceedings and has handled filings before a range of tribunals. His courtroom experience complements advisory work on regulatory and compliance issues that often arise in contested matters.
Colleagues describe Wright as methodical in case preparation and steady under pressure. He approaches discovery, motion practice, and trial preparation with attention to detail. In board and committee roles, he applies that same methodical approach to financial oversight and governance tasks. That combination of trial work and institutional service gives him a practical perspective on both litigation strategy and the organizational side of law.
Wright’s long tenure at Gordon Thomas Honeywell LLP ties him to a team-oriented approach to client work. He continues to practice in Washington and regularly handles matters that may require federal court filings or appearances before the highest federal tribunal. He currently focuses his practice on litigation and related advisory matters in state and federal forums.
