I feel privileged to help folks who lack the legal experience to help themselves.   I am in my 24th year of practicing law.. Why hire me?   I am very experienced, honest,  have a proven track record of getting good results and not afraid of hard work.. Four incredible people have had an incredible positive impact.    No man is a more humble and honest  than my father (survived Husky football in mid 50's, received his doctorate and touched countless young people as a school Superintendent).   From my mother, I learned perservance (working as an RN,  never once complaining about the long hours).    My brother was the hardest working athlete I ever saw (WSU baseball player) and he has carried this ethic into a very successful coaching/teaching career.   My wife teaches me compassion and drive, I could not have a more caring, hard working wife and mother of my three children.. I have battle-scarred empathy.   I too have struggled with issues life presents.     I understand the stress losing a job; I know the challenge of  financially surviving in this world; I have experienced family dramas;  and I have felt the unclassey sting of small-town politics.. I have alot of heart and perserverence.    Athletics at a young age instilled this in me.   Although I was never the most talented athlete - I worked very hard to make it to the college level.. I have great legal experience.    I worked as  Prosecutor in 1998, have worked as a Public Defender and private practice for over 20 years.   Also, I served well over a decade in the U.S. Army Reserves as a JAG officer, where I helped hundreds of soldiers which included six short overseas tours (including 3 to Korea).. In addition, I had the distinct honor of being an intern for Paul Luvera and John Murphy in the early 90's--I have never seen men so passionate in their search for justice and their unmatched work ethic.    I was very lucky to office share with several wonderful men and attorneys -- Jim Anderson taught me the importance of a strong community presence; Brian Paxton showed how a fine sense of balance and work can be of benefit and John Ward taught me that being a country gentleman lawyer is a very worthwhile endeavor.. I am affordable and set my fees based on what you can afford.. --David Lowell

Ken is known for his ability to develop complex legal arguments and defenses..

I am a King County public defender in Seattle and Kent. I believe that anyone charged with a crime deserves the best representation.  My practice is devoted to criminal defense and appeals. I currently represent adults charged with felonies. I have also worked juvenile court, district, and municipal court. I am originally from Las Vegas, Nevada.

I knew that I was destined to be a criminal defense attorney at seven years old when my mother told me that I should be a lawyer because I argue so much. Throughout my life, I watched people I loved get chewed up and spit out by the criminal justice system and that cemented my passion for defending those accused of crimes in our complicated court system.. I studied Political Science and Criminal Justice at Washington State University. I then attended Seattle University School of Law to fulfill my dreams of becoming a criminal defense attorney. During law school I interned with the Associated Counsel for the Accused, a public defender agency in King County. I then interned with the Honorable Wesley St. Clair in the King County Juvenile Court as a clerk. I finished my final year as an intern with the Federal Public Defenders office in the Western District of Washington.  I also received the highest grade in the class for Evidence at Seattle University School of Law and am an expert on evidence issues in trial.. I have been practicing criminal defense since I graduated from law school.   I am committed to practicing in this area forever because I thoroughly enjoy helping my clients and their families navigate the complicated and scary charges against them.  In my first job as a lawyer, I worked for Feldman and Lee primarily handling municipal public defense contracts.  I have also taken private cases ranging in severity from as a simple shoplifting case to a felony drug case and everything in between. I gained invaluable experience as a public defender handling thousands of cases and taking many cases to trial. I have handled hundreds of domestic violence cases and DUI’s.   My expertise on these cases caused me to become the trial trainer for all of the new associates hired by the firm.. After leaving Feldman and Lee, I became a partner with Choi Capital Law running the Criminal Law Department before joining the team at Gause Law Offices, PLLC.  At Choi Capital Law, I handled many domestic violence cases and resolved every single one of those cases with some sort of dismissal.  In the only trial during that time period, I received a deadlocked jury verdict which led the prosecutor to dismiss the charges against my client.  I also handled multiple felony cases and resolved every felony down to a misdemeanor or less.. Now an attorney at Gause Law Offices, I continue to take pride in diligently preparing every case I handle. I start every case by making sure that my clients fully understand the charges against them, the potential consequences, the steps and process the case will go through, and, most importantly, what matters most to my client in resolving the case. I then review the discovery with a fine tooth comb and make sure to interview every witness or party to the case. I always prepare my cases for trial even though a vast majority of cases resolve prior to trial, my preparedness helps to get my clients the best resolutions possible through informed negotiations. I have won trials and had hundreds of cases dismissed for my clients that are innocent. I have also helped hundreds of clients get a better deal that resulted in them getting treatment or help for the issues causing their criminal behavior instead of jail time. There is no criminal case that would not benefit from the assistance of a compassionate, thorough, and aggressive defense attorney’s representation.
