Our independent funding allows us to work free of political influence.
What is most unique about the opportunity we are presenting to qualified parties, is the opportunity to make an extraordinary difference for society, and to be compensated relative to performance at several times base compensation.
Applicants are invited to review more detail about us following the listings for the open positions.

About Our Fundamental Organizational Purpose
The mandate of our Seattle-based Social Purpose Corporation is limited to three principal objectives:
It is our conviction that justice requires both faith in the principles of the constitution, and great practical effort to keep those principals alive.
About Our Approach to Issues and Cases
Broad Mandate/Legal Standing. Our broad public justice mandate provides a basis for legal standing in existing or potential legal actions with issues related to constitutional and federal rights or public interest.
Support of Law Enforcement. By basic mandate, in every case involving criminal activity, we offer unrestricted proactive support to local and/or federal law enforcement to accomplish joint public interest objectives as efficiently as possible.
Justice Requires Persistence. When we read the words of the framers of our constitution and founders of our county, they speak to us across time. They remind us that the only rights we may expect to have are those we are willing to preserve through constant effort.
About Our Funding
Funding. We are non-partisan with unrestricted funding. Although we are currently self-funded, we will accept anonymous support via blind trusts in the future. We decline all restricted funding.
Organizational Summary
We are objective-oriented, free of dress codes outside of the courtroom, office politics, and completely focused on our work and purpose. As practitioners of Sun Tsu, we appreciate solutions and strategies that allow us to ‘win the war before the first battle is fought.’ Creativity and unconventional thinking are encouraged.
Thank you for reviewing our work and available positions.
