About Caitlin Baunsgard

I am an attorney in Spokane, Washington with a general litigation practice, which means I have experience in most areas of the law.

I went to Gonzaga University School of Law where I was an associate editor of the Law Review and graduated in the top 10 of my class. I worked for the United States Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Washington where I was involved with both civil and criminal cases. I also had the opportunity to draft Ninth Circuit appeallate briefs and prosecute the Federal Petty Offense (aka Misdemeanor) Docket before the US Magistrate. I was also a Special Deputy Prosecutor for the Spokane County Prosecutor's Office before joining Kirkpatrick & Startzel, PS.
