My goal is to provide aggressive, effective defense for my clients. Facing a criminal allegation can be a very stressful experience, and I work hard to achieve great results and communicate effectively with my clients.I help good people in bad situations. Let me help you. I am a phone call or text away at. You can also reach me via email at As always, all conversations are confidential.. Since graduating at the top of my law school class half a year early, I have focused on defending clients charged with criminal offenses throughout Western Washington. I opened my office in Marysville, Washington with no clients, and quickly became one of the most successful attorneys in Snohomish County through hard work, strong legal analysis, and unusually good results.. Unlike some defense attorneys in this area, I have never been, nor sought to be, a prosecutor. My allegiance has always been to the defense of individuals who are being prosecuted by the government. I will not go easy on the prosecution, or sell you out to make a quick deal with former colleagues. I will fight for you, and you alone.. I routinely go to conferences and seminars to keep abreast on the new trends and tactics being used throughout the country. My results, courtroom presence and dedication to my clients has resulted in prosecutors and judges referring people they care about to me for help.. When I am not working, my hobbies include fishing, boating, playing golf and spending time with my family.

I first became a lawyer because, as corny as it might seem, I was enthralled by watching Perry Mason when I was a young boy. The cool and calm demeanor he exhibited in any situation, his crafty cross examination of witnesses that somehow always led to a confession, and not to mention he won all his cases. While in law school, I volunteered at local legal clinics to help people with everyday legal issues they face, from workplace discrimination to holding a bad landlord accountable. It was during this time that I saw what power the law held to help people, to improve people's lives, and to be a "big stick" when necessary. This is one of the reasons I chose to represent people charged with crimes for a living, because so many of my clients are good people even if they made a mistake. And the U.S. Constitution requires that everyone accused of a crime be entitled to a zealous defense, someone to protect their rights and challenge the government's authority when necessary. This is why I do what I do.. As a former prosecuting attorney and Judge Pro Tem, I have the experience and knowledge needed to successfully represent those accused of crimes, whether it is assault, DUI, suspended license, theft, and all other criminal charges. I also handle hundreds of traffic citations a year with an extremely high success rate. I regularly attend and speak at seminars on trial advocacy, stay up to date on new developments in my field, and provide all the resources my clients need to get them through the process successfully. But I also take pride in my client service, keeping clients updated on their cases' progress and informed of all developments. I am also there 24 hours a day if my clients need a question answered or simply want to discuss their case.. Being charged with a crime can be stressful, emotionally and financially. If you find yourself in this situation, put me in your corner. You will be glad you did.
