About Tara
Tara Reck built her legal foundation at Seattle University. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in philosophy, graduating with honors, and later returned to the same campus to complete her Juris Doctor at the School of Law. Those years in Seattle shaped both her approach to legal analysis and the professional network she would rely on through her career.
After law school, Reck established herself in Washington state practice. She is licensed to practice in Washington and has spent her career handling matters arising from workplace injuries and disability claims. Early work in firm settings exposed her to the procedural and evidentiary challenges that often determine outcomes in workers' compensation disputes. Over time she moved into roles that emphasized direct client counseling, claim preparation, and representation at hearings.
Reck's involvement in professional circles complements her case work. She holds membership in the Pacific Northwest Professionals in Workers Compensation, an organization that brings together practitioners, insurers, and medical vendors to discuss developments in the field. That connection has kept her aware of changes to administrative rules and the medical issues that frequently surface in contested claims.
Her office history includes practice with Reck Law and associations listed as Reck Law PLLC and Casey & Casey PS. Those listings reflect both solo and collaborative arrangements she has maintained while representing injured workers. Colleagues and former clients describe her courtroom presence as steady, and she has developed litigation strategies suited to the administrative forums where most workers' compensation disputes are decided.
Reck's routine work covers claim intake, benefits advocacy, appeals before hearing officers, and negotiation of settlements. She regularly manages interactions with medical providers and vocational experts. In file work she balances statutory deadlines, medical records review, and deposition preparation. Her background in philosophy informs how she frames legal questions; she tends to break complex situations into elemental issues that can be presented clearly to judges and adjusters alike.
Outside casework, Reck participates in continuing legal education and in regional professional meetings that address evolving standards in occupational medicine and compensability. She remains based in Washington and maintains an active practice. She currently concentrates her practice on workers' compensation matters.
