Jeff Swan is challenging incumbent Judge Douglas Federspiel for Department 3 on the Yakima County Superior Court. Swan has worked as a defense trial attorney representing clients in need for 25 years in Yakima. In this role, he has built a favorable reputation with the bench and seen firsthand how residents interact with their justice system.
Swan wants to leverage his knowledge of the court system to make the court more accessible and efficient for the residents it serves. He believes that the responsibility of the judge is to be a "servant leader," upholding the laws that safeguard equality for all. The Washington Women Lawyers gave Swan a judicial rating of "exceptionally well-qualified" and the Washington State Veterans Bar Association rated him "well-qualified."
Federspiel is seeking re-election to the Superior Court where he has served for nearly 8 years. Previously, Federspiel was a judge for the Yakima District Court for two years. On the bench, he has worked to "strictly apply the law and the Constitution and its enumerated rights."
Swan will bring valuable experience and unique insight to the bench. He is the best choice in this race.Last updated: 2023-04-05Jeff Swan
