I have been practicing family law in Washington State for more than twenty-five years.  Within the last few years, I have turned my attention to working primarily with the Jefferson County, Clallam County, and Kitsap County communities.  Our goal at Kurlin & Rimson is to provide legal services that are tailor-made to fit the unique needs of each client and his/her family.  We believe that resolution without litigation is always the best option.  However, when litigation is required, we are ready and able to deliver effective, high quality legal services.  We also have broadened our services to meet the needs of our community.  We have many clients who simply want to have an attorney they can call when any need arises. We're happy to fill that role.  We also are diligent about referring our clients to other attorneys if matters arise in areas we do not practice.

I have been defending people accused of crimes for over a decade. As a former Prosecutor in Kitsap and Jefferson County, I know how the State approaches a charge. I have have an excellent working relationship with the Prosecutors Office and my fellow attorneys in Jefferson County. My staff and I work hard to making sure that your phone calls are returned promptly and your questions answered.  I recognize that this may be an extremely stressfull time in your life and I will do everything I can to minimize this.

I graduated in 1997 from Gonzaga School of Law, where I served as an Associate Editor of the Gonzaga Law Review.  My practice includes civil litigation and criminal defense. Over the past 25 years, I've appeared in state and federal courts all over the State of Washington. After about 100 jury trials, I'm comfortable in a courtoom.. I aim to provide the best legal representation possible. Call my office to set up a consultation.

Helping people has been my primary motivation for practicing law. Which is why my practice is focused on those areas where people truly need an advocate on their side: Bankruptcy, Traffic, Criminal, and DUI Defense.. Providing excellent service and getting results requires hard work, an attention to detail, and preparation. Other attorneys talk, but I am focused on getting favorable outcomes for my clients. I strive to obtain the right result for each client no difficult it may be.I take pride in serving my clients and community well. I grew here in Port Townsend, attended Port Townsend High School and graduated in 1999. I chose to practice law here because this is the area I love and the people I care about.. I have an aggressive and innovative approach to the interpretation of the traffic code, the criminal and DUI laws in Washington State, and Federal bankruptcy law. I have successfully represented and defended my clients throughout Western Washington, including Jefferson, Clallam , and Kitsap County.. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife, our daughter, and our French Bulldog. I’m also enjoy giving back to the community through the Port Townsend Rotary Club and coaching the PTHS Mock Trial Team. I’m a huge fan of Seattle sports, especially the Seahawks!

After growing up in New Hampshire, I attended college in Montreal and graduated from Seattle University School of Law in 2012. Never one to settle down for too long, I have lived in five states, the District of Columbia, and three other countries. For the time being, though, I feel immensely lucky to call Port Townsend my home.While I absolutely love to argue in (and out of) court, I am most passionate about working with clients. A lawyer has to be able to explain the legal system, to understand a client's goals, and to approach each problem with the client's interests at the forefront. This is a service industry, and I am proud of my ability to connect with the people I serve.My first love is criminal defense, but I am also available to help people with family law and landlord-tenant issues.
