Attorney & Founder

I'm Adriena Clifton, the founder of Clifton Law PLLC—a law practice dedicated to helping individuals, homeowners, tenants, and small businesses navigate the legal world with clarity and confidence.

With years of experience in litigation and negotiation—spanning landlord-tenant disputes, HOA conflicts, and business management—I bring legal precision and practical insight to every case. Whether defending a renter against eviction, advising homeowners on HOA issues, or reviewing business contracts, my approach combines efficiency, empathy, and strong advocacy.

Prior to launching Clifton Law, I worked in construction defect and boundary dispute litigation at Carney Badley Spellman PS. Later, I worked at Helsell Fetterman LLP, handling civil matters with a focus on business and real estate. I’m a proud cum laude graduate of the Seattle University School of Law, where I received multiple CALI Excellence for the Future Awards—recognizing the highest achievement in courses such as Business Entities and the Defender Clinic. These honors reflect my deep commitment to legal analysis, writing, and problem-solving—skills I now put to work for my clients.

Clients appreciate my responsiveness, practical strategy, and ability to cut through the noise. Whether you're in a complex dispute or just need straightforward legal advice, I’m here to help you feel empowered and protected every step of the way.

I look forward to getting in touch!
