I'm here to give you honest advice, clear guidance, and fierce representation.. I care about my clients and their cases, but I'm not going to "sugarcoat" anyone's situation for my own benefit. If you're looking for someone who will be honest with you, who is easy to talk to, who is compassionate -- but sometimes tough on you -- we'll probably get along.. I've been a prosecutor (Lewis County) a public defender (Lewis and Grays Harbor County), and I'm an experienced litigator. I'm not afraid to go to trial on your behalf (if that's the best choice for you) but neither will I force your case to trial to pad my own billing. I'm a big proponent of "alternative courts" (drug court, veterans court, family drug court, etc.) and helping my clients get treatment if that is something they're interested in.. I really enjoy working with both kids and adults, and I'm experienced in Juvenile criminal law as well as dependencies, CPS issues, and guardianships.. I offer free 1/2 hour criminal consults and family law consults at $50/half hour. Give me a call anytime -- I'd love to talk to you.. -- Christine

I have been representing clients like you for 20 years. As a litigator, I have successfully obtained settlements and verdicts in many personal injury cases with extensive experience in the courtroom representing the injured party. The two most common types of cases involve motor vehicle accidents and slip/trip and fall cases.  If you are injured, you are almost always going to come out of the situation better with the help of an attorney.  Attorneys tend to make little decisions over time that have a big cumulative effect.. The skill set from those two types of cases play into boundary line disputes, contract disputes, and other disputes.  I will help litigate those disputes.  Our office has several attorneys practicing in diverse legal areas that I can turn to when litigation demands that expertise. We are also known for handling URGENT injury matters that call for quick court action.

I have been defending citizens accused of crimes in the Kitsap County area for 21 years.  I am as passionate and commited to this practice as I was the day I stepped into my first courtroom in November, 1990.  I do not have "cases", I have clients, each one with a unique set of life experiences and concerns.  Every one of my clients has my home phone number and cell phone number so that they can reach me at any time, for any reason.  In my practice, the client is the Boss.. I am connected to every component of the criminal justice system in Kitsap County.  I know every deputy prosecutor, most of the local police officers and all of the judges and court personnel.  While this does not necessarily guarantee a better outcome for my clients, it does open many doors and allows me to efficiently procure a positive outcome for the vast majority of my clients.  It also assists me in keeping my legal fees down.. I have represented more than 3,000 citizens accused of felony crimes, taking more than 150 to jury trials.  The charges have ranged from minor offenses such as auto theft and burglary to more serious crimes such as murder, robbery and rape.  I have defended one person charged with a capital murder and we were successful in persuading the jury not to impose the Death Penalty.  I have also represented more than 1,000 citizens accused of misdemeanors, taking dozens to jury trials.  The charges have predominantly been DUI's or Domestic Assaults.. I look forward to hearing from you to see if I can assist you with your legal issues.. Tim Kelly
