Andy is a third-generation Oregonian, with stops in WA and CA. He worked as a financial planner at MetLife in Santa Rosa, CA prior to attending law school at Willamette University. He ended up in Albany as a result of his search for a small firm in a small to medium sized town in western Oregon. He and his wife, married in 1992, decided Albany was the perfect place to raise a family, which includes two healthy and active boys, and moved to the area in 2000. Weatherford Thompson, with its rich history, accomplished attorneys, and diverse practice areas made it an easy decision to locate to the Willamette Valley. Andy was discharged from the Army Reserve in 2001. He was a 3-time national collegiate boxing champion at Santa Clara and still enjoys most athletic activities when not grounded by his wife due to injury. He hopes to develop hobbies when his sons are grown and he can invest energy in other directions.

Andy has litigated cases ranging from personal injury to boundary line disputes to trust disputes. In recent years, his practice has focused on litigating construction and real estate disputes, transactional work in business, real estate, and estate planning to assist clients in avoiding litigation, and elder law planning. His clients and projects include multi-million dollar companies and disputes, new businesses, and families that simply need advice in resolving disputes or planning for the future.
