With a warm, straightforward style, she guides clients through important decisions with clarity and confidence.
Katie is honored to continue the legacy begun by her father, Jack Ludwick, more than five decades ago. After practicing law alongside him for nearly ten years before his retirement in 2025, she carries forward his commitment to integrity, compassion, and genuine care for the families they serve.
EDUCATION

PERSONAL
A former Division I women’s basketball player, Katie still brings that same energy off the court—devoting most of her time to tiring out her daughter and Gracie, the Office Law Dog. She’s happiest enjoying her husband’s cooking and cheering on the Mariners (ideally in October).
