My practice emphasizes DUI, criminal driving charges, traffic tickets and personal injury.. Author of:. Please call for a free consultation and FREE DUI BOOK. My law practice takes a unique view of the practice of law.  Our DUI Defense look at each and every case from different perspectives.  Obviously we look at the DUI case from a Washington DUI Defense attorney's perspective and how we can defeat each case or portions of evidence, but we also like to think outside the box.  For example, there is always a chance that our client's story, the things that make our client unique and inherently good, cannot be ignored.  While this personal approach doesn't work in every case, there are many that it will. Therefore it cannot be overlooked.. Our DUI defense lawyers service most of Western Washington from Skagit County, Whatcom County and Snohomish County  We have two offices serving our clients.  For Skagit County DUI cases we have an office in downtown Mt. Vernon near the courthouse.  For Bellingham DUI cases we have a Bellingham office conveniently located next to the Jail, Whatcom County District Court and Bellingham Municipal Courts.. Our representation is not limited to these County courts however.  We have an active practice in Lynnwood Municipal Court and in fact, I have practice Lynnwood DUI cases since 1998 when I became the City's prosecutor.  I believe we have the best team of Lynnwood DUI attorneys because of intimate knowledge of the Lynnwood DUI system.  We have also represented hundreds of clients who have received a DUI in Mill Creek, Edmonds, Mukilteo, Marysville, Mountlake Terrace, Bothell, Monroe and Arlington.. We have always maintained a very busy presence in representing those charged with DUI in Skagit County.  I had an office in Anacortes for more than 8 years and have represented hundreds of fine people charged with DUI in Anacortes and Mount Vernon DUIs for more than a decade. We maintain our busy Skagit County criminal defense practice so call today if you have been charged with a crime in Skagit County.. Finally, we work hard to earn our clients respect.  That is probably why they speak so highly of our group of lawyers in their client testimonials.  No matter if you have been charged with DUI, a misdemeanor criminal charge, or a traffic ticket, my practice an my fellow attorneys are here to help.
