About Judge Mike Diaz
After immigrating from Peru to Seattle as a child, Judge Mike Diaz has built a career defined by public service, civil rights enforcement, and judicial leadership. As a federal civil rights lawyer in Seattle, he helped found the U.S. Attorney’s Office Civil Rights Program, protecting people in their workplaces, homes, and communities. He led the reforms of the Seattle Police Department and earned some of the highest honors at the U.S. Department of Justice.
For this service, President Barack Obama nominated Judge Diaz to a lifetime appointment on the federal court, only to be stymied by Mitch McConnell, who would not bring his nomination to a vote.
Appointed twice to the bench by Governor Jay Inslee, he has served on the King County Superior Court and the Washington Court of Appeals–together for over 8 years, where he has presided over trials and authored hundreds of decisions which have shaped Washington law.
Judge Diaz has since been endorsed by former Governors Inslee, Gregoire, and Locke, Attorney General Nick Brown, nine Supreme Court Justices, and hundreds of judges across our state. Four bar associations rate him Exceptionally Well Qualified.
With proven experience, principled judgment, and a deep understanding of the law, he is prepared to protect the rights and freedoms of the people of Washington with fairness and integrity, at a time when the rule of law is under assault.
