I am a Washington litigation attorney with over a decade of experience in the legal industry. I represent clients in state and federal courts throughout the Pacific Northwest in a variety of legal matters, resolving complex cases through a strategic balance of litigation and alternative dispute resolution techniques.

I am a trial lawyer. I have litigated virtually every kind of case -- divorce, real estate, products liability, consumer fraud -- for almost 30 years. I particularly enjoy suing attorneys for malpractice, if they deserve it. I like lawyers -- many are dear friends of mine -- but if an attorney screws up and causes damage to a client, the client is entitled to hire a lawyer to be compensated for his/her loss. I am willing to be that lawyer.

I am a patent attorney, inventor, and entrepeneur. This gives me a valuable perspective regarding how to start a business and intellectual property! I have been developing a robotic fish since 2009, what I call my "fishBOAT" project. Fish are more efficient than propellers, but parts are bad! Traditional robotic fish are NOT efficient, because they have too many parts. This video tells how I learned of this problem, why and how I used a human-powered research craft to come up with an answer, and shows some of my prototypes. In a future video, I'll discuss markets for robotic fish. My day job is as a patent attorney at AEON Law, so the fishBOAT is patented and patent pending around the world. I have an "up close" perspective on technology development, purchasing patent services around the world, and fundraising for startups. Please feel free to contact me with questions about the fishBOAT project, startups, or intellectual property.

I am a Pacific Northwest native, born and raised in South King County. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Law and Justice with a Legal Studies specialization from Central Washington University. Upon graduation, I worked as a paralegal and supervisor for a creditors’ rights bankruptcy firm in Seattle. I left to further my career in the legal field and attended Willamette University College of Law in Salem, Oregon, where I received my Juris Doctorate. While attending law school, I wrote case summaries for Willamette Law Online and clerked for a bankruptcy firm in town assisting clients with debt resolution matters.

I am a navy veteran and a graduate of Berkeley Law School (Boalt Hall). For 30 years I have successfully fought for my clients at every court level in Washington, from municipal court to the Washington State Supreme Court. During this time, I have come to embrace certain ideals. I do not pick needless fights, I treat my opponents with respect, and I do not back down from a necessary fight. I adhere to the old Roman adage, “If you want peace, prepare for war.” To attain a favorable settlement, you must always prepare the case for trial. I take the time to fully understand and investigate each client’s story so that a favorable settlement can be reached, or a jury trial won. I apply these principles at Dixon & Cannon, Ltd., where I focus upon criminal defense, personal injury, and appeals

I am a native of Seattle and love it here.  My family is here and it is where I have chosen to raise my two college aged feel a pride in our city and in the practice that I have built here with the amazing and incomparable Tim Milios.. My practice represents an evolution of my values and life experiences.  During law school I had an amazing professor who called criminal defense attorneys the "Keepers of the Constitution" and it had a profound effect on me.  I wanted to do my part to preserve what I believe sets our country apart from others.  By giving those who are charged with a crime the presumption of innocence we go a long way toward creating fairness.. Over the last decade I have learned that even with that presumption being articulated over and over again there are many people in the prosecutors office and often on juries who want to see a person "prove" their innocence.  This is really disturbing to me and it presents one of the great hurdles that defense attorneys deal with daily.. I have extensive experience in dealing with alcoholism and have a deep understanding of the disease and its consequences on both the addict and the people who love them.  I take tremendous pride in the work that I am able to do with the addicted and we often find healing as well as success.. I am driven to both domestic violence defense and victim's advocacy.  I know how devastating a charge of domestic violence can be for a family and work tirelessly to help everyone involved access the services that are needed while vigorously seeking justice for my clients.. I love my work and am passionate about how we do it at Milios Defense.  We do more than simply work with our clients, we connect with them.  It is through that connection that real success is built.
