Theron (Ted) A. Buck
stafford frey cooper
Throughout his career Ted's practice has focused almost exclusively on preparing and trying cases. He has successfully represented the City of Seattle in some of its most significant cases over the past decade, including the aftermath of the WTO riots, class actions alleging profiling and constitutional violations, and controversial officer involved fatalities. While a substantial portion of his practice has been devoted to representing police agencies and officers in cases alleging police misconduct, however, his practice includes a wide variety of other litigation. Generally hired to assist in defense, he has also obtained multi-million dollar verdicts and settlements for plaintiffs in product liability and subrogation cases. His practice also involves commercial disputes, employment disputes and agricultural related issues. Ted further provides substantial pro bono assistance to a number of charitable organizations, including the Washington State Law Enforcement Memorial Foundation. He has repeatedly been recognized as a "Super Lawyer" by Washington Law and Politics magazine.

Ted was born and reared in Idaho and remains an Idahoan at heart. His free time is fully occupied by four delicious grade school-aged children, an urgent desire to resurrect his golf game, and his only other remaining hobby, cooking. Education
