We are voting for Phyllis Quatman for District Court Judge.

Phyllis possesses many extraordinary qualities, all of which we have seen displayed during our long friendship with Phyllis and her family. She is a brilliant litigator who is not afraid to conduct a vigorous and usually successful representation of her clients. She has the courage to represent clients whose cases are unpopular and prejudged by the pubic, and give them the defense that is their due.

She knows the court system thoroughly, as both a prosecutor and defender. She is always prepared, articulate and respectful in court. Her experience in handling difficult cases is second to none. Her first-hand knowledge of our court system, and what is needed to improve our courts and to bring swift and well-reasoned justice to those appearing before her, will be extremely beneficial to law enforcement and to those involved in civil proceedings.

I don't think there is a smarter — or more successful — attorney in the Flathead. She will make an outstanding judge, and we are fortunate that she is running for the office of District Court Judge.
