Racine Olson, PLLP

What Racine Olson, PLLP does

Racine Olson, PLLP is a private professional limited liability partnership law firm headquartered in Pocatello, Idaho, founded in the 1940s by Lou Racine, a Navy Captain who served in World War II. The firm self-describes as the largest law firm in Idaho outside of Boise, with a team of 16+ attorneys practicing across 19 legal areas including workers' compensation, personal injury, estate planning, corporate and business law, real estate and land use, family law, water law, bankruptcy, elder law, and intellectual property. Racine Olson serves clients statewide through offices in Pocatello (headquarters at 201 E Center St), Boise (250 S 5th St #120), and Idaho Falls, with a Spanish-speaking attorney and staff to serve Idaho's Hispanic population.

The firm's go-to-market is sales-led and consultation-driven: prospective clients initiate contact via phone (toll-free 877.232.6101 plus local lines for each office) or an online contact form, after which the firm deploys a "team approach" where clients meet the full attorney and staff team that will handle the case. Marketing channels include the firm's website (racinelaw.net), an active Idaho Law Blog with hundreds of educational articles across practice areas, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and a Justia lawyer directory listing. The firm has been recognized by Martindale-Hubbell, AVVO, Super Lawyers, the Million Dollar Advocates Forum, and the American Board of Certification.

Racine Olson operates a mixed revenue model: workers' compensation and personal injury matters are handled on contingency fees with clients paying nothing unless the firm wins, while estate planning, business law, real estate, family law, and other transactional or litigation matters are billed through traditional hourly rates or flat fees. Notable case results include $1.4M lifetime benefits for a truck driver, $650K for a machine operator, and $600K for a steel worker, among other six-figure workers' compensation recoveries. The firm has recovered tens of millions of dollars in workers' compensation benefits for Idaho clients over its 70+-year history.

Comparable as a mid-size regional full-service firm competing for the same corporate, real estate, and litigation matters in the Treasure Valley, though with broader geographic reach than Racine Olson.
