Rupal Hira

Rupal Patel gives the warmest welcomes.

Rupal is the first voice clients hear. She knows that reaching out to a lawyer can be intimidating, so she makes sure no one feels that way for long. Part of her role is orienting clients to how the firm works and helping the process feel clear and predictable. The best part of her job is seeing how exceptional legal support can help a small business owner or nonprofit leader who came in uncertain leave with confidence.

Rupal has been immersed in legal services since 2014. She began as a legal assistant at a Georgia-based firm specializing in entertainment, business, and family law, where she developed an instinct for the human side of legal work. At Clayton County Probate Court, she managed vital records and contributed to the mental health treatment court program, navigating situations that demanded both precision and care. Those roles gave her a finely-tuned sense of what people need before their first meeting with an attorney.

She earned a BS in Criminal Justice from Georgia State University, sparked by her enthusiasm for helping people and solving puzzles. In the legal world, Rupal can fulfill both passions at once.

Rupal’s work ethic was shaped by helping her parents grow their hospitality business in Atlanta. She learned firsthand what it takes to build something that lasts. She carried that same dedication into Indian Classical dance, which she studied and performed from a young age. Both taught her to show up fully and do things with intention.

Rupal still makes time to support her family’s business in Georgia. Here in the PNW, she’s crafting delicious meals and enjoying them with her daughter and husband. The dancing never stopped either.
