Seattle's image as a friendly, livable City has been undermined by riots, tense race relations, and laws that unfairly target the homeless. It's time for a positive change. Seattle needs new leadership to strengthen our diverse community. Tom Carr will take a more moderate approach to the City Attorney's office, acting as a mediator to help to resolve the many controversies in our community. We deserve a City Attorney with the experience, compassion and dedication to do that important job well. Experience: Tom Carr has practiced law for 17 years. He has experience handling both Civil and Criminal matters. Tom is a partner with the downtown Seattle firm, Barrett Gilman & Ziker. Tom previously served as a federal prosecutor. He handled organized crime cases and advised government agencies on a wide range of civil matters similar to those faced by the City Attorney. Tom knows how to work effectively with law enforcement officers. Compassion: Raised in a family of six in a one-bedroom apartment, Tom worked full-time to put himself through night law school, graduating magna cum laude and editing the law review. Tom has experienced poverty first-hand and knows what it takes to be successful. Dedication: Tom's has worked in the developmentally disabled community and with the homeless at St. Augustine Women's Shelter. He coaches youth sports including pee wee baseball. Tom is best known for leading the ETC, the group charged with building an expanded Monorail and as a citizen advisor to Metro Transit. Tom is endorsed by: King County Labor Council, 11th and 34th District Dems, Greg Nickels, Phil Talmadge, Dow Constantine, Joe McDermott, Margaret Ceis, Yvonne Sanchez, Nancy Rising, Helen Johansen and many more. Tom Carr lives in West Seattle with his wife, Theresa, and their two young sons.
