About Rebecca Roe
Becky Roe has been a tenacious trial attorney for more than 35 years. Born and raised in Seattle, she graduated from Nathan Hale High School, the University of Washington, and Seattle University law school. Becky went directly from law school to the King County Prosecutors Office where she co-founded the Special Assault Unit in 1979, one of the first in the nation to specially focus on the prosecution of sexual assault, child abuse, domestic violence, and homicide.
After leaving the Prosecutors Office in 1994, Becky has continued in private practice representing crime victims against individual perpetrators, the State, churches, schools, and other organizations that fail to protect children in their care. She has been the lead trial lawyer in class action cases against Taco Bell, Walmart, and similar establishments in Washington and Oregon. She was honored with the 2025 Pillar of Justice Award from the Washington State Association for Justice.
