Locke appoints Lisa Worswick to Pierce County Superior Court
TACOMA - Gov. Gary Locke today appointed attorney Lisa Worswick to replace retiring Judge Frederick B. “Fritz” Hayes on the Pierce County Superior Court.
“Lisa’s professional excellence and personal commitment to helping others has rallied support from individuals and organizations throughout the community,” Locke said. “She has many years of good, practical experience on both sides of the bench. I am confident she is ready for this challenge.”
Worswick, 45, has 16 years of legal experience. She has served as a prosecutor for various municipalities, engaged in civil litigation and practiced personal injury and real estate law. Most recently, she has served as a judge in the Roy Municipal Court and as a Pierce County Court Commissioner.
“I’m profoundly honored by Governor Locke’s appointment,” said Worswick. “I’m looking forward to serving the people in the capacity of Superior Court Judge.”
Worswick replaces retiring Judge Hayes, who served on the court for 12 years. The governor commended Hayes for his distinguished judicial and community service and acknowledged his efforts to help youth through the Juvenile Court Committee.
“Judge Hayes has served the court with honor,” Locke said. “We greatly appreciate Judge Hayes’ years on the bench; he will be missed.”
The governor said the search to replace Judge Hayes was “grueling and competitive.” In making his decision, he consulted the Pierce County Bar Association, the Pierce County prosecutor and public defenders, the Attorney General and judges of the Superior, Appeals and Supreme courts.
“I have a deep and abiding commitment to the independence and integrity of the judicial branch of our government,” Locke said. “It’s our judges, more than anyone else, who sustain that independence and integrity in the eyes of the public.”
Worswick graduated from the University of Washington School of Law after earning a bachelor’s degree in political science from Oregon State University. She has been a member of the Washington State Bar Association since 1982.
Since Superior Court judges must be elected, Worswick will have to stand for election in September. The position carries an annual salary of $119,230.
