Whitney Stark

Whitney Stark started her legal career in San Francisco almost two decades ago. She gained experience litigating high-impact consumer rights and employment law class actions, resulting in substantial awards for consumers and employees.

In 2013, she came home to Portland, and in 2017, she formed Albies & Stark with Ashlee Albies. Today, she represents people in a wide range of cases, including employment discrimination, wage and hour violations, and class actions. She also represents labor organizations.

Whitney values open, frank communication and collaborating closely with her clients. She approaches each case with innovative strategies tailored to the client’s unique needs.

Whitney was selected as a 2019 recipient of the Arthur H. Bryant Public Justice Award by the Oregon Trial Lawyers Association, along with attorneys Dana Sullivan, Charese Rohny, and Ashley Vaughn. They received the award for their work on behalf of sexual harassment survivors in claims against the Oregon Legislature. Their case led to significant changes in policy regarding the handling of harassment and discrimination charges at the Oregon Legislature, and a $1.3 million settlement on behalf of the survivors.

When she is not at work, Whitney enjoys spending time with her two children and husband, and adorable, troublemaking rescue dog Tilly. Whitney also likes eating chocolate, hiking, or eating chocolate while hiking.
