Jonathan Yousling is a Shareholder and the Managing Shareholder of GLP Attorneys’ Bellingham office, where he serves clients across Whatcom, Skagit, and Snohomish Counties. Known for his precision, empathy, and powerful storytelling, Jonathan is a formidable trial attorney who has built his career representing individuals and families whose lives have been upended by catastrophic injury and injustice.
In the courtroom, Jonathan is relentless. He has secured multiple multi-million-dollar verdicts in King, Snohomish, and Skagit Counties—life-changing results for clients facing some of the toughest battles of their lives. His excellence was recognized by TopVerdict.com for achieving four of the Top 50 jury verdicts in Washington State in 2024, including one that ranked among the Top 10 verdicts statewide. He has been named a Super Lawyers Rising Star for seven consecutive years, underscoring both his legal acumen and his commitment to his clients’ causes.
Jonathan’s dedication to justice is rooted in a lifelong instinct to stand up for those who can’t stand alone. As he puts it, “I will not let them face that bully alone.” That mindset was forged early—when, as a teenager, he stepped in to defend a friend who was being attacked. That defining moment taught him that when someone is in need, he will rise to meet the challenge, no matter what the odds. Today, that same courage drives him to face down powerful insurance companies and defense teams, ensuring his clients’ voices are heard and their losses fully recognized.
Beyond his courtroom success, Jonathan is deeply involved in strengthening the broader justice community. He is an active member of both the American Association for Justice and the Washington State Association for Justice, where he advocates for fair access to the courts and the protection of injured individuals’ rights. Locally, he was voted the Cascades Best Personal Injury Attorney by the Bellingham Herald—an honor bestowed by the very community he serves.
A graduate of the Trial Lawyers College, Jonathan has trained extensively in advanced trial techniques that integrate psychodrama and communication arts, allowing him to connect authentically with juries and tell his clients’ stories in the most human, compelling way possible. At GLP Attorneys, he mentors rising litigators, instilling in them the art of advocacy, empathy, and resilience in the face of adversity.
For Jonathan, being a personal injury attorney is about more than winning cases—it’s about restoring dignity, demanding accountability, and standing shoulder-to-shoulder with clients when they need a champion most.
Jonathan was born and raised in Skagit County where he remains with his wife and four kids.
