Jane Eckels

Partner, Davis Wright Tremaine LLP

Board of Directors

I grew up nourished by the mountains, fields, woods and water. Washington’s national parks are collective treasures, and I want everyone to have the opportunity to experience the magic of these special places.

Jane grew up in Vermont and, from an early age, enjoyed outdoor adventures, big and small. A summer spent driving cross-country, visiting national parks and camping every night, was a formative experience. After law school, Jane moved out to Seattle so that her professional interests would be matched by her interests in skiing and other outdoor pursuits. Seeing Mount Rainier and spring skiing in the North Cascades was quick confirmation that she was in the right place.

Jane is a partner at Davis Wright Tremaine LLP where she focuses her practice on technology and intellectual property matters, representing emerging companies to global corporations. She helps clients procure, develop, and launch products and services that involve software, data, content, and cloud-based technologies.  

Outside of work, Jane prefers to spend her time outside. She enjoys skiing, hiking, biking, camping or simply being in the great outdoors. These days, her adventures are kid-sized and you can usually find her and her husband trying to instill the same love and enthusiasm in their three boys. Jane eagerly joins the Washington’s National Park Fund board. She is excited to put her passion for the outdoors to work nurturing our wild places and opportunities for others to experience the joy, empowerment, and renewal they can provide.
