Jason and his team have been handling King County DUI defense, criminal defense, and traffic ticket cases for decades. Over that time, our attorneys have appeared in virtually every courtroom in the county, and that depth of local experience translates directly into better outcomes for our clients. We know the deputy prosecutors. We know the commissioners and the judges. We know the informal customs of each courthouse, what arguments work, what mitigation packages the bench expects, and how to move a case efficiently toward the best available result.

DUI Defense in Seattle and King County

DUI defense has been a cornerstone of Jason's practice since he tried his first DUI case as a prosecutor in 1996. That former prosecutor perspective, combined with decades on the defense side, gives Jason an edge that most defense attorneys simply cannot match.

Every Seattle area DUI case has multiple fronts of attack. Was the stop supported by reasonable suspicion? Were the field sobriety tests administered according to NHTSA protocols? Was the Draeger Alcotest 9510 breath test machine properly calibrated, was the operator currently certified, and was the fifteen minute observation period actually conducted? The Draeger has been the subject of serious, sustained scientific and legal challenges by Washington defense attorneys, including source code review findings about breath temperature correction and fuel cell degradation.

One urgent point: if you have been arrested for DUI, you have only seven days from the date of arrest to request a Department of Licensing administrative hearing to protect your driver's license. Call (844) 925-2943 right away so we can protect your license while we build your defense.

Seattle Criminal Defense

A criminal charge affects employment, housing, professional licensing, immigration status, and peace of mind. Our Seattle criminal defense team handles the full range of King County misdemeanors and felonies, including assault, domestic violence, theft, drug possession, harassment, malicious mischief, hit and run, reckless driving, no contact order violations, and minor in possession. We begin every case with a close review of the evidence and push hard for dismissal, suppression, or acquittal where the facts support it, and for reduced charges or diversion when a negotiated resolution is the best path.

Seattle Area Traffic Ticket Defense

Paying a traffic ticket is a guilty finding that follows your driving record and drives up insurance premiums for years. Before you mail that check, talk to us. Our attorneys fight speeding tickets, school zone and construction zone tickets, negligent driving, red light and stop sign violations, HOV violations, following too closely, unsafe lane changes, and no insurance citations throughout Seattle and King County. A short call could save you thousands.
