This proud Chicago native is best known for her vocal versatility, boundless energy and magnetic charisma on stage. 

During the week, Valerie Ojeda travels the country, working as an Event Emcee, Trade Show Presenter and Automotive Product Specialist, representing top companies like Panasonic, HPE, Microsoft, 3M and Honda, just to name a few.

On weekends, she manages and sings lead vocals for the wildly successful cover band, “Anthem Road,” playing in casinos, resorts, conventions, wineries, private parties and outdoor festivals, throughout the country. Anthem Road has shared the stage with such iconic 80’s bands as Berlin and Warrant, as well as some of the top tribute bands in the world. Valerie’s favorite musical moments to date were meeting rock legends Pat Benatar, Kip Winger, Jerry Dixon and Billy Ocean, as well as singing with Terri Nunn at The Canyon Club and singing the National Anthem before a Slaughter concert.

For Valerie, being of service is the highest form of consciousness, so being able to give back to local communities, by being a part of Law Rocks, is an absolute dream come true!

Rocking for Northwest Immigrant Rights Project

Rocking the world for almost a decade, Force Majeure formed under pressure and first performed at a K&L Gates firmwide global retreat in Phoenix, Arizona, after The Beatles terminated without cause, nunc pro funk. Since then, Force Majeure have presented their eclectic musical offerings widely at firm events, house parties, and via video, and hope to have Sir Paul make a surprise visit to join one of their sets, someday. The new and improved 2025 edition of Force Majeure consists of K&L Gatesers Claire White (lead vocals), Gary Kocher (guitar/vocals), Brandi Ledferd (drums), and Mark Wittow (guitar/vocals), with friends Ian Paden (bass/vocals) and Dan Hensley (trumpet/percussion/vocals).

"Legal Issues" are three lawyers and a scientist who are longtime friends. We formed this band about three years ago once our kids were full grown and we now have the time, and have played at several venues, bars, taverns, any place with a stage. We primarily play classic rock covers and some originals and tend to put an edge on many of these songs. When we play, we don't tend to stand around but instead like to put on a show with our music and stage presence. We can be loud and that's the way we like it.

Rocking for Teen Talking Circles

Hailing from the Great White North in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Jean-Piérre et Jacques are two burly, hockey-playing, ax-swingin’, acoustic-strummin’ hosers who will happily rock your pants right off your body to leave you burnt and smoking on the dance floor!

A mix of comedy and musicianship, these bearded boys promise to entertain you with their interpretations of 80s covers from AC/DC to Whitney Houston to Bryan Adams to Guns N' Roses. The Pacific Northwest is their predominant stomping grounds these days so keep an eye out to witness them jack choppin’ some wood in your neighborhood!

Rocking for Rebuilding Hope

“The Orphan 40” is the solo, acoustic project of PCVA Partner Ian Bauer, who spends his days representing survivors of child sexual abuse and can be otherwise found on a stage somewhere in the greater Puget Sound region with a guitar in hand, as a regular gigging musician. 

Prior to and during law school, Ian played in and around Seattle solo and in bands, before professional and family obligations meant stepping back from playing live. The Orphan 40 began when, during a sleepless night in the middle of a contentious trial and on the heels of his mom’s Stage IV cancer diagnosis, Ian did something he hadn’t done for years – hit the record button on his do-it-yourself home recording setup. 

The result? Dozens of originals and eclectic covers stripped down to their bare essentials – solo guitar and vocals recorded live, to capture and convey the raw emotion of the moment, where the imperfections and straightforward arrangements reflect an earnest authenticity all too often lacking in the modern music industry.

One thing led to another, and within a matter of weeks Ian began booking shows as The Orphan 40 many months in advance, with thousands of monthly listeners checking in from Seattle to Stockholm, and everywhere in between.

Rocking for Troy & Baden Biddle Foundation

The members of Side Bar rarely speak to each directly. One whispers to another out of earshot of the other band members. Some musical decisions (i.e., how much vibraslap is too much) are simply too prejudicial to discuss openly. It’s completely irrelevant and highly irregular but we allow it. When not preparing for the zombie apocalypse, Rob hones his guitar skills by listening exclusively to the Ventures. El Jeffe bangs on the drums while administering criminal justice with his office door wide open. Scott is most at home wearing a coconut bra and brandishing the aforementioned vibraslap. Brian, guitarist extraordinaire, covers all the bases from rock solid rhythm to face-melting leads. Finally, Amanda, our lungs breathing life into this venture, still flexes her legal muscles from time to time, but usually only to bail out her friends in a pinch. That about sums up Side Bar. Like we said, we rarely speak to each other directly.
