In this episode of Made of More, host Chris Erdman sits down with Justin Park, a partner at the Romero Park law firm and a trusted civil litigator in the Pacific Northwest. Justin shares his inspiring journey from working in his father's electrical contracting business—where a devastating lawsuit sparked his desire to protect others—to arguing cases before the Washington Supreme Court. He discusses his unique approach to law, which prioritizes a "caring, creative, and cost-sensitive" strategy to resolve complex business and real estate disputes. Justin also reflects on his time as a missionary in Japan, where he learned to overcome his natural introversion and master the art of connection. The conversation dives deeper into the personal resilience that defines Justin’s character. He opens up about being born with Microtia, a condition resulting in the absence of his left ear, and how he navigated life without viewing it as a limitation or weakness. As a devoted husband and father of four, Justin explains how his family and faith act as his "North Star," grounding his professional ambition in a life of service and integrity. Tune in to discover why Justin believes we are all "Made of More" and how finding a purpose bigger than oneself transforms the daily grind into a meaningful legacy.
