It affects employment, housing, professional licensing, and immigration status, and the stress it places on you and your family is real. Jason and his team believe every person charged with a crime deserves a prepared, aggressive defense. We handle the full range of King County misdemeanor and felony cases, including assault, domestic violence, theft, drug possession, harassment, malicious mischief, hit and run, reckless driving, no contact order violations, minor in possession, and others. Our approach starts with a close review of the evidence: the 911 call, body camera and dashboard camera footage, the officer's report, witness statements, medical records, and any digital evidence. We look for every weakness in the State's case and every defense the facts will support. Where self-defense, mistaken identity, lack of intent, or an unlawful search and seizure applies, we push hard for dismissal, suppression, or acquittal. Where the best outcome is a negotiated resolution, we use our knowledge of the local prosecutors and judges to secure reduced charges, diversion, or deferred dispositions that keep the client's record clean whenever possible. DUI Defense in King County DUI has been a cornerstone of Jason's practice since he tried his first DUI case as a prosecutor in Oregon in 1996. His background as a former prosecutor gives him a practical understanding of how the State builds a DUI case and, more importantly, where those cases tend to fall apart. Every Washington DUI case has multiple points 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 observed? The Draeger has been the subject of sustained source code review and scientific challenge by Washington defense attorneys, including concerns about breath temperature correction and fuel cell degradation. A breath result is evidence, not a verdict, and it can be challenged. There is also a critical deadline every King County DUI client needs to know about. Under Washington's implied consent law, you have only seven days from the date of arrest to request a Department of Licensing administrative hearing to protect your driver's license. Miss that deadline, and the administrative suspension is automatic regardless of what happens in the criminal case. If you have been arrested for DUI, please call (844) 925-2943 right away so we can protect your license while we build your defense. Traffic Ticket Defense in King County Many drivers do not realize that simply paying a traffic ticket is a guilty finding that will follow them on their driving record. The insurance premium increases over the next three to five years often cost far more than the ticket itself. For CDL holders and teen drivers on an intermediate license, the consequences can be even worse. Jason and his team handle speeding tickets, school zone tickets, construction zone tickets, negligent driving, failure to obey a traffic control device, HOV violations, following too closely, unsafe lane changes, no insurance citations, and other infractions throughout King County. We examine the officer's training and device certification, radar and LIDAR calibration records, school zone timing, sign placement, and every other angle that can support dismissal or reduction. Before you mail that check, call us at (844) 925-2943. A short conversation could save you thousands over the life of the ticket.

I studied Federal Tax Law at Seattle University School of Law in 1985. Upon graduation in 1988, I started my practice at Sterbick, Abel, & Sterbick. Through my tax practice, I learned that many tax debts can be discharged through Chapter 7 bankruptcy or paid through Chapter 13. I began practicing bankruptcy law in 2009. My firm has discharged literally millions of dollars of IRS debt for my clients. I am admitted to practice before the United States Tax Court, the United States District Court, and the Washington State Superior Court. I am a member of the Washington State Trial Lawyers Association and the Washington State Bar Association. I am married and blessed with my wonderful wife and children.

Tresa G. Cavanaugh, Attorney at Law is a solo-practicing attorney, proudly representing clients in Vancouver, WA and its surrounding areas. I strive to provide legal services that are affordable and accessible to lower income clients who otherwise would not qualify for free legal aid services. I understand that many people do not plan to need a lawyer, and therefore they do not have the savings necessary to retain a large law firm to represent them in their legal case. However, I guarantee that I provide high quality legal representation at a fraction of the cost of other firms. I am passionate about providing legal services that are necessary in the lives of people who may not have anywhere to turn. I have therefore focused my practice on high-need areas that can benefit from attorney assistance. My bankruptcy practice is designed to help people overcome devastating debt and get back on their feet. My wills and estates practice, on the other hand, serves to help people arrange their affairs to save their loved ones confusion, bitterness, and expensive costs later on. Clients who come to me for employment matters have often been wronged by their employers and are otherwise left powerless in the face of big firm attorneys. Finally, I represent clients who are truly at their most vulnerable and emotional, as they face the loss of their marriage or even child custody. My ability to provide low cost legal services in these areas is truly the culmination of my passion for the law and purpose in life. My rates are based on the moderate means sliding scale. I also offer bundle services and flat fee rates. Legal problems can leave you exhausted, but you are not alone. Choose a compassionate attorney at Tresa G. Cavanaugh, Attorney at Law.

James V Hill, attorney at Russell & Hill, PLLC, is a lifelong Washingtonian and has spent time calling both sides of the Cascades “home.” Jim has devoted his law practice to helping people obtain the benefits and compensation they deserve, both in personal injury cases as well as social security disability claims. After graduating with academic honors from Seattle University School of Law, Jim went to work at a law firm that provided legal defense for multiple insurance companies. Working as a lawyer for the insurance companies provided valuable experience and insight into how insurance companies do business, how they value claims, and what they look for when litigating a claim against a plaintiff. In 2002, with the knowledge and information he learned to work as an insurance defense attorney, Jim transitioned his legal practice to focus solely on representing injured people against the insurance companies. Jim’s experience working for insurance companies has given him the knowledge to bring a successful claim for injury and the insight to avoid the pitfalls that exist in the settlement and litigation process. Jim has successfully represented thousands of Washingtonians in personal injury claims. In 2005, Jim Hill had a handful of personal injury clients ask him for help with their applications for Social Security Disability benefits. After successfully helping these clients obtain disability benefits, Jim noticed similarities between the two areas of legal practice. In both instances, injured people need help fighting for the compensation that they deserved against entities much larger than an individual – whether the fight was against an insurance company or the federal government. Out of that experience grew a passion to help people with disabilities obtain their rightful benefits. When a physical or mental health condition leaves a person unable to work on a full time, sustained basis, Jim represents the client in all proceedings with the Social Security Administration to get his clients the disability benefits they need and deserve. Most clients have a hearing in front of a federal administrative law judge, and Jim makes sure that his cases are prepared thoroughly and presented in a manner that will best deliver a favorable ruling. Jim Hill continues to be busy with his vibrant and growing law practice at Russell & Hill, PLLC. He splits his time representing hundreds of local people in both personal injury claims and disability claims.
