When the government is using their power to threaten to take your freedom, your property, and your voice, don't panic. Call me. Allow me apply my fierce work ethic and years of experience to protect you from the government's reach. Let's push back.. Shira Stefanik is not originally from Washington State, but she has lived in this region for much of her adult life. It is beneficial to bring a multitude of perspectives when approaching a conflict. Born and raised in the Chicagoland area, Shira transplanted herself on the west coast to attend The Evergreen State College in Olympia, WA. Evergreen's culture of social activism led Shira to the World Trade Organization (WTO) protests in 1999, where she and hundreds of other peaceful protesters were booked in the King County Jail for several days. That was not the last time Shira saw her peers get profiled, arrested and charged with criminal conduct. These experiences ultimately led Shira to pursue a legal education in San Diego, California, where she earned her law degree in 2008. Game on. Shira returned to the Pacific Northwest and was admitted to the Washington State Bar in 2009.. Despite earning her law license in the midst of a crippling recession that prevented many young lawyers from launching their careers, Shira began working with other defense attorneys in the Seattle and greater Puget Sound area on a contract basis, assisting with court appearances, legal briefing, case negotiations, and trials. Always one to champion the underdog, she opened the Law Office of Shira J. Stefanik in 2010, where she has steadfastly committed to defending those accused of criminal misconduct.. Shira has attended the National Criminal Defense College, an intensive two-week program focused solely on criminal defense trial work. She is an active member of the Washington Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers and the national DUI Defense Lawyers Association, where she regularly participates in continuing legal education seminars to ensure that she is current on changes in the law and emerging defense strategies.. In her free time, Shira enjoys spending time on the water during sunny days and seeing live music, especially Phish and Grateful Dead projects.. My work begins with a personal consultation, followed by extensive investigation. If you have not yet been charged with a crime, there are steps I can take to attempt to prevent that criminal charge, or to mitigate the effect of the charge once you are summoned into court.. When criminal charges are filed, I understand that the consequences of a criminal conviction can be life-changing. I examine every piece of evidence the government plans to use against you to determine whether it is accurate, authentic or even admissible in court.. I utilize my extensive network of the most qualified consultants, colleagues, investigators, providers and expert witnesses to address legal, factual, and scientific issues to prepare the most effective defense. With an understanding of your individualized needs and concerns, I extensively explore every tactical scenario to accomplish the best possible result in your case. I keep in regular contact with you to ensure that you are updated, involved and informed. I give you your voice back.. Whether we reach an agreed resolution or go to trial, I stand by you and I fight for you the entire way.. You will not have to go through this alone.

Since becoming a lawyer in 1993, I have completely dedicated myself and my practice to the defense of those charged with criminal misconduct. For more than 20 years the vast majority of my practice has been helping people avoid the drastic and often times unfair consequences of a DUI conviction.. To many, a DUI charge feels like an over whelming burden that will drastically changes their lives. It does not have to be. My practice is founded on the belief that through hard work, preparation, diligence, communication and never giving up, every DUI charge can be beaten. Our results show that in almost every instance, this belief is true.

Practice Areas: DUI & DWI
Over eighteen years ago I opened my first law office based on the belief that an attorney's reputation means everything and that a reputation for integrity, dependability and compassion must be earned one case at a time and one client at a time. Each person that comes through my door is deserving of respect and judgment-free counsel. Every person that becomes my client will receive diligent, effective and zealous representation. While I enjoy practicing law in several different fields and in many different courts throughout the state, the common thread throughout my practice is my commitment to always put my client's wellbeing first and to always listen to their goals, hopes and concerns when shaping case objectives and strategy. Client-centered representation begins with careful listening built upon a foundation of trust. Everyone is entitled to just and fair treatment when dealing with our legal system; I strive every day to make that aspiration a reality for every person that I accept as my client.. Please call me to discuss your case. I will give you a fair, frank assessment of your case and tell you how I believe that I can help you. Should I feel that I am not the right attorney for your case, I will politely and promptly decline representation so you can continue searching. Some attorneys will over-promise during your initial meetings, and then ultimately under-deliver and disappoint you. As a prospective client, you deserve to hear the strengths as well as the weaknesses about your case. Some other attorneys may engage in high-pressure sales tactics or try to frighten you into quickly retaining them. I do not approve of such marketing tactics. I will patiently listen to your personal story and clearly explain my legal fees for your case and allow you as much time as you need to decide whether to retain me. In fact, I often encourage potential clients that have clearly been "attorney shopping" to feel free to call around to obtain other estimates before I draft my attorney fee agreement. I am confident about the quality of my legal services, the depth of my knowledge, my ability to research any unique legal problem that may arise, and my ability to secure you a fair and just trial. Moreover, I am confident that the flat fees and hourly rates that I charge for my legal services are well within community standards and commensurate with my decade of hard-won experience. I'm sure you will find that in many cases my attorney fees will be more affordable and a better value than my competition.. CRIMINAL DEFENSE VICTORIESTom Keehan has earned Not Guilty verdicts or outright dismissals in serious cases such as: Felony Driving Under the Influence, Assault in the Second Degree with a Deadly Weapon Enhancement, Attempting to Elude a Pursuing Police Officer with Aggravating Factors, Possession of Stolen Property in the Second Degree, Delivery of Methamphetamine, Possession of Methamphetamine, Possession of a Stolen Firearm, Forgery (2 Counts), Possession of Psilocybin Mushrooms, Rape in the First Degree, Rape of a Child in the First Degree, Child Molestation in the First Degree, Luring, Failure to Register as a Sex Offender, Failure to Secure Load (commercial vehicle), Disorderly Conduct, Driving While License Suspended and Driving Under the Influence (gross misdemeanor)..
