Law has been my life. For my entire legal career I have worked very hard to be the best lawyer I could be. For nearly thirty years I have dedicated myself to the law, with much of my career being spent in public service. After graduating from Stanford Law School I began working for large law firms in Chicago, Los Angeles and Seattle. I moved into criminal law, handling major criminal cases, first as a public defender in Seattle, then as Chief Prosecutor for the Attorney General’s Office in Saipan. In Saipan, I focused on the prosecution of major violent crimes and government corruption cases. Upon returning to the States, my wife and I started our law firm. I have been very actively involved in many of the local criminal justice projects, including the establishment of our drug courts, the local law and justice council, as well as continuing to be heavily involved in the training of trial attorneys. I served as President of the Washington Defender Association (WDA) where I have continued volunteering my time to train young attorneys about trial practice. I have championed case load reform through my work as the President of the WDA. As your attorney, I pledge to bring the same passion and commitment to you that I have demonstrated in my life’s work. I am determined to represent your best interests and obtain the best possible case results for you. “Justice for All” is not just a phrase for me. It is a way of life.

I have dedicated my career to defending the rights of the accused.  A graduate of Stanford University and a magna cum laude graduate of Georgetown Law School, I chose criminal law instead of corporate law because I love the challenges of trial work and the rewards of fighting for human beings caught in the often callous machinery of the criminal justice system.. The majority of my practice is dedicated to defending against felony charges in King County Superior Court and Federal District Court in the Western District of Washington, but I have experience in state and local courts throughout Western Washington, and I know that every case is serious to the person being accused.  I pride myself on being an even-keeled and compassionate advocate--one of the most important services I can provide is to ease the stress and uncertainty the goes with being accused of a crime.  I will use my knowledge and experience to empower you to make the most informed, intelligent decisions possible, and I will litigate your case with creativity and tenacity.. With sixty jury trials to my credit in almost twenty years defending the accused against all types of felony and misdemeanor cases in federal, state and local courts, I can give you the peace of mind that comes with having a proven, battle-tested advocate in your corner.

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.

I firmly believe that a criminal defense attorney doesn't have to choose between being compassionate and being a vigilant & effective advocate. I prefer not to leave any stones unturned and am not concerned with questioning the status quo. The job in any given case that needs to be done is the job that will get done.
