I represent individuals and corporations in federal and state courts, as well as in regulatory enforcement actions. I defend clients in white collar criminal prosecutions and complex civil litigation, with an emphasis on parallel proceedings and internal investigations. A skilled and successful litigator and effective problem solver, I have substantial experience handling federal and state cases from initial investigation through appeal. I have served as a prosecuting attorney, defense counsel, appellate attorney, internal investigative counsel, government ethics adviser, and trial advocacy instructor. Prior to joining McKay Chadwell in 2006, I represented the State of Washington in civil and criminal matters as an Assistant Attorney General, where I served on the Washington Bar Association’s Committee on Public Defense. Prior to moving to Washington State, I served on active duty with the United States Army Judge Advocate General’s Corps.

I joined Siderius Lonergan & Martin in 1995. With more than 35 years experience in federal criminal defense matters, my practice focuses on representing corporate employees and individuals in federal investigations, including grand jury investigations and investigations by federal administrative agencies such as the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Chemical Safety Board and the National Transportation Safety Board.. From 1981 to 1995, I was an Assistant Federal Public Defender in Seattle, handling more than 1,500 federal criminal matters for indigent clients.  I continue to take court appointments as a member of the CJA Panel for the Western District of Washington.. I was lead counsel in United States v. Bagley, 473 U.S. 667 (1985). In that case, the United States Supreme Court, ruling for the defense, held that whether or not the defense makes a specific request for information that tended to exculpate the defendant, the due process clause of the United States Constitution required that material exculpatory evidence be disclosed to the defense.. I have lectured on Federal Grand Jury Practice, on Jury Selection in federal courts and on the ethical and practical issues faced as pool counsel.. I served as a volunteer lawyer with the Innocence Project Northwest, in which his client, a defendant in the infamous “Wenatchee Sex Ring” cases, spent six years in custody before his conviction was vacated and he was released from prison.. Honors:  One of Washington State’s Superlawyers since 2000; one of The Best Lawyers in America since 2003; as one of the Top Lawyers in the United States by Corporate Counsel starting in 2009; one of the Top 100 Trial Lawyers in Washington State since 2011; and one of the Best Lawyers in Washington State since 2011 by Seattle Business Monthly.

For almost thirty years, I have defended clients accused by the government of serious crimes.  I have substantial trial, appellate and post-conviction experience, and my current practice emphasizes the defense of white collar, death penalty, homicide, and other serious and complex cases in state and federal courts.  Additionally, I represent professionals in disciplinary matters and victims of sexual abuse, domestic violence, and police misconduct as plaintiffs in civil cases.  I also coordinate and conduct mitigation investigations and presentations for clients who, in any type of case, but particularly in the sentencing or disposition phase of criminal or professional licensing cases, need critical decision makers – prosecutors, judges, jurors, licensing board members – to understand their lives as a whole.   I appear in courts throughout Washington.
