Diane represented my son in a family dispute over a parenting plan and alienation charges. She was successful in getting all of the charges dismissed. She is very professional and extremely effective in arguing a case. We all thought Diane was a pleasure to work with. We would recommend Diane to anyone with a legal family issue.

I'm very pleased that I chose Matt Stock to represent me.  He was compassionate, straightforward and patient with me.  The day I met him in person I got a good feeling about him.  He seemed pleasant to talk to and looked like he had integrity.  My initial impression was confirmed throughout our interactions in the following months.  He never sugar coated anything, he was respectfully direct and always made time for me.  Thanks to his knowledge, expertise and the time he devoted to helping me prepare my defense, (and I guess the details of the case to some extent) the commissioner did rule in my favor.  I would highly recommend this attorney to help you with your issue.  I have never had any run-ins with the law or courts.  If I find myself in a position needing representation again, Matt Stock will be at the top of my list!

These attorneys are the most compassionate, empathetic, ethical, and dedicated attorneys. I hired them to represent me on 3 protection order cases and 1 criminal case. I was facing the possibility of losing my career due to my cases. But Matt Stock won all 4 of my cases!! Matt went above and beyond by diving deep into investigating my cases, discovering discrepancies, and developing effective strategies to successfully win all 4 of my cases. There were times that I felt so scared and wanted to give up. But Matt would encourage and empower me to keep moving forward and he truly understood my fears. I knew that I could trust Matt and his partners, which is not easy to say regarding attorneys. These attorneys truly care about their clients and they are very passionate about what they do. The work ethic and integrity that they demonstrated was beyond amazing. If you’re looking for experienced trial attorneys that know how to argue in a courtroom and will deliver results, hire Matt Stock and his partners.

Dustin is amazing! I received a letter in the mail that had said I am being re-prosecuted for a DUI that I had already had dismissed 2 years ago. It was a Friday and it said I had to be in court the following Tuesday. I live in TX now and the DUI was in WA so you can see how that was a problem. My previous attorney was no a judge so I didn't know who to contact. I found Dustin online and called his office. Within the hour he got back to me, explained how everything was going to go and made me feel at ease. Unfortunately, I had blew a .26 which is an Aggravated DUI. Originally, Dustin said it was unlikely to get this dropped as my BAC was so high and the goal was to get it down to a regular DUI. The court case was resolved pretty quickly with no action needed from me and Dustin was able to get my DUI charge down to a reckless! I was amazed as I for sure thought there was no chance for this to get reduced that much. I am so happy with my choice to go with Dustin and I would not recommend any other attorney besides him!

After deciding I need to declare bankruptcy, I interviewed several different local law firms - and ultimately chose Skelton Law firm. I met with an Associate Attorney with the Skelton Law firm - Ms. Haley Owens -- and we discussed the bankruptcy procedure, and other pertinent details. I followed Ms. Owen's instructions and guidance as we both navigated through the bankruptcy process. Throughout the entire process Ms. Owens was always professional, friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable on all of the nuances of my bankruptcy case. Ultimately Ms. Owens was able to complete on my behalf a successful bankruptcy discharge. And so thank you to Skelton Law firm and Attorney Haley Owens for a great positive and productive legal experience! Thanks to Ms. Owens -- I was able to achieve exactly what my bankruptcy goals were.

My husband and I found Skelton Law firm, after interviewing a couple other firms that didn’t quite meet our needs. We were paired up with Haley Owens who was very wonderful, efficient, and quickly responded to our needs whenever we had questions. Owen is the first responder; he answered calls, schedules appointments, takes messages in which Haley would get back to us within the day, he was very helpful with extensive knowledge, and kind. Haley met with us for our first meeting, we went over a list of debts, and she proposed the plan and cost. We liked her so much that we retained her that day. We then we exchanged emails and phone calls until all necessary paperwork was collected, and the online courses (2) were completed. We met with Haley once more to make sure everything was correct. Then we received a date to come do a virtual court meeting. Haley helped us and another lovely woman go through the online meeting. She was so patient and easily relatable for us. We then received our finalization through the mail. She made everything understandable and simple. Susan Skelton was very helpful as well. Very kind and patient with us too. I would give this firm 10+ gold stars when comparing to other firms. This one everyone goes above and beyond.

He helped me resolve my legal issue in a very professional manner and we won the case. I would also like to tell you about a very strong side of Daniel, he is not only a top level lawyer, he is also a very nice person who is supportive and encouraging. After working with him I didn't have to worry about my case at all, he supported me and counseled me, so I felt relieved.

This is some of the best representation I’ve ever had. It was affordable and very little effort on my end of it. My teenage son received a second infraction which means he would lose his license till he was 18. Merrill got it dismissed. My son needs to follow the laws of the road and I do my best to parent him that way. My son has struggled lately in school, but has recently created his own business selling clothes and loves it. He has motivation and is doing better in school and life. Having his license revoked, would have likely made him give up on everything. Merrill Law stopped that from happening. They may have saved his life. I will do my best to parent my son to abide by the rules of the road. Thank you Merrill for giving my son another chance.

He is honest, humble, funny, as well as well-versed and tireless in his pursuit of justice. No one wants to need these services, but if you find yourself in need of these services you want a human who knows the law from both a prosecution and defense perspective, is well versed in the law and systemic issue, and genuinely cares about his clients.

Walking into Rodi’s office for the first time, I was nervous. I was staring down what was certain to be a long, nasty, complex divorce and I needed to make sure I had the best representation possible. But, I also had to know I could trust and relate to whoever might provide that. Rodi commanded the room with her presence, nevertheless, she immediately put me at ease. Within no time at all I could tell she understood where I was coming from, what my children and I were going through, and how my ex figured into these things. She got up to speed on my particularly complicated/unique situation extremely quickly, and I knew at once I had an ally. And a determined, smart, experienced, relentless, caring one at that. I knew she had my back from day one. And she never once faltered. Through the countless, pointless and malicious deviations, distractions, and motions my ex threw up to complicate things; the endless diatribe of slander and lies, the messy and ugly, Rodi was my rock. She – and her equally amazing and dedicated paralegal – gave me confidence, kept me informed, and put everything into perspective. She has a vast history with and inside knowledge of the courts and judges and she possesses a fierce, but steady, demeanor. She doesn’t let emotion get in the way as she works tirelessly to create a fair, appropriate, and welcome outcome. When my ex failed to even try to make mediation a success, we faced at court time—something both she and I had hoped to avoid. Mediation is always Rodi’s preferred outcome; that said, the court is truly where she shines. My own court experience turned into a three-day circus of sorts, thanks to my ex’s antics, vitriol, and curious representation. Rodi was at the top of her game fielding all the balls he kept trying to throw at us; she had hold of every thread and met each of his efforts with her legal expertise to ensure they fell short. Above all else, though, Rodi held my children at the heart of the everything and truly served as their advocate. There is no doubt that my kids were her highest, sacred priority. In the end, the outcome was best it could possibly be, given my situation. There is also no doubt that if it weren’t for Rodi O’Loane I don’t think I would have made it through all of this. She made me stronger and kept my family safe and protected. I would recommend her to anybody.

I have worked with her over the last 2 years on a very complicated case that took a while to finalize, and not because of our lack of willingness to cooperate. If you need a knowledgeable, thorough, and professional attorney she is highly capable of getting the work done and closing the case.

I will never forget the fears that I felt when I went through my dependency back in 09. I hated myself for my mistakes and I no longer believed in myself. Mr. Wogsland never was too busy to work for or with me. He walked me through my case and fought tooth and nail throughout the entire process. He wouldn't let me allow the state or the father's to abuse their power. He gave me an OPD social worker and helped me navigate the entire process. Later when the case was closed and I had to go to court to protect my son from his dad Mr. Wogsland was able to provide me with documentation I needed from the dependency which ended up protecting my son again from his dad. Mr. Wogsland refused to allow my daughters dad and CPS to try to agree to extremely strict visitation denying me visits that wouldn't let me have my daughters overnight for 2 yrs AFTER I had completed inpatient at a PPW program and all the other court ordered Services I had completed already. Now I am coming back to him again because I know in my heart he can help me again. My youngest daughter was sent to Florida with her father who has been beating her and denying me my rights as a parent. She is in foster care in Florida and I am needing help getting information from my previous case. I know that I can go to Mr. Wogsland and ask him for his help in getting the correct documents if he still has access to them because he has already shown me before that he cares about my family and wants our family to be complete and with his help my daughter will be safe for the first time in 7 yrs. I know from how he has helped me in the past that we aren't just another case to him we are a family and we are important. I will always be grateful for everything he has done for my family and if you are in my shoes I wore back in 09 and you find out that he is assigned to you then this is your lucky day. You will have an attorney that will fight with respect to the courts and demand your rights are being met. Thank you for everything. Because of you Mr. Wogsland my children are safe, healthy, stable and secure and now I am finally getting my youngest daughter home because of all the hard work you helped me with back then.

Out of the 20 years I have been represented by Richard Wogsland (from a juvenile to present), I can proudly say that I can appreciate his kind, compassionate, professionalism. Richard Wogsland is very knowledgeable and will help you make confident legal decisions based on your situation. I was very pleased at the most recent case (dependency) in which he helped me get my kids back home. I would most definitely recommend Richard Wogsland....

Divorce mediation oversight leaving out notice to let other party know of "late" missed payments. March to June 9th resulted in $28,500 in late fees. I paid immediately when notified. The $150 per day compounding fees added up. Unintentional oversight from changing accounts. I was threatened with imprisonment by opposing counsel Robert Miller/Brewe Layman.

It is so hard for me to build the courage to write what I know my fellow citizens and especially those like myself have held their right hand to their heart every single day in allegiance of the land we love. Aaron took money from me in a family matter. Knowing I am clean as a judge I was hoaxed into accepting an awe full arrangement which has made seeing my son nearly a functional obsolescence. Aaron. barged me near enough to $40,000 and I barely see my son. I do not smoke, drink and I am a good father. I have since tried to reach Aaron but always seem to end up speaking with his extremely rude and obnoxious phone lady Jennifer. Jennifer scares me as well. She is so rude and Aaron is one sneaky attorney. Stay away from the crooks. In my clear purview Aaron is a washed up attorney with no loyalty to his clients. Aaron is a walmart attorney. I have no fear that Aaron and Jennifer will now try and ruin my life even more. 100% not afraid of that clown. Hire a young attorney who has not forgot why he/she became an attorney. I feel as though Aaron was using my money to pay off debts or gambling I do not know what I know is the lack of representation and the amount charge seems criminal.

Leslie Gilbertson and team are stars! Thank you for taking this case on and steering it in the direction you did. Leslie picked out the essential issues around visitation and addressed the fundamental reality of where our grandson lives, has lived and will continue to live. Her presentation of each point in your argument was superb!

Dropped a huge retainer and we have not had a single filing completed in time for my family’s case with Leslie Gilberston specifically. Communication is massively lacking. I’m charged for every time I email or call for an update that I don’t get. Be wary when they say they have the capacity for your case and expect to be your own advocate with the courts if you choose this firm, especially if it is family law.

She took my retainer and then went on vacation instead of attending my hearing. Lost major ground after that. Wasted about $4k and then made the choice to go hire a different attorney.

Aimee did a good job representing me in my divorce. I was completely new to the process and she helped me understand what steps to take. I was the respondent in the case and Aimee seemed to genuinely empathize with my situation. She was calm during the difficult situation, which helped. She clearly understood the Snohomish County court system, its commissioners and judges, and shared that information with me in terms of what I should expect. My only issue in working with her was in the exchange of the many documents in a court case. Scans were often crooked, pages were missing and often had to be re-sent, and edits were cumbersome. In 2016 it would be nice if collaborating on editing responses and sharing documents were easier.

She had taken a vacation during my case, failed to keep knowledge of what was going on causing several delays.. after all was said and done, the agreed upon deal was not upheld and my file is now tarnished with a felony, when the deal only went as high as a gross misdomeanor. She has ruined my life.

Attorney was mediocre in performance, drug the case out so long she almost let statue of limitations expire. Then had to file a law suit to keep from losing all chance at recovery. Then her negotiation skills were subpar, and I ended up with a very poor settlement. In the end I settled so I could end the thing once and for all and be done with my own attorney and her incompetence. Then I had to argue with her to get my own money. She kept telling me she would mail the check on X date, then did not do it. Then would give me another date, oops not then either, then gave me a bad tracking number. Completely unsatisfactory all the way around.

I hired Karen for a personal injury case. At first she seemed caring and engaged. Once she had to start working my case that changed and I felt like I was a bother to her. Each interaction I felt like it was too much to ask for information on my case. She was short with me, would not provide information I asked for, or would just not answer questions I asked. Her only communication method is email. Calls are not answered. She let my case go so long the statue of limitations almost expired and then a lawsuit had to be filed, when it could of and should have been settled before it came to that. In the end I accepted far less than I should have because I was done dealing with my own attorney. Then the surprise expenses popped up, and she never did provide copies of the bills to substantiate the expenses she claimed to have paid. I am sure the other side is the only one who was happy with her performance. Overall it was a very disappointing experience and I felt she provided subpar representation. In the end, even getting her to hand over my small settlement was a battle, even though she had it in her possession, she kept giving me different dates she would mail the check to me, only to have it not show up, and then be given another excuse why it was not sent. Very unprofessional.

I had an issue arise that needed the attention and quick action of a reputable attorney. Karen did not disappoint. She dealt with my issue expeditiously and did not waste any time. I went through a divorce about 10 years ago and I have had my share of dealings with attorneys. She is, in my opinion, regardless of the type of attorney you are in need of, one of the THE best in Snohomish County. Can't thank Karen enough for getting this issue dismissed which has allowed me to move on with my life. THANK YOU!!!

The court appointed this person and because the incident occurred in Mukilteo I was stuck with him. He refused to communicate by email, he refused to meet in person before the hearing, he told me we would seek a "deferred prosecution" but explained nothing about it, immediately after the hearing he told me the Snohomish probation dept. would explain "ICAOS" to me (something I'd not heard of before and the probation officer told me to research on the internet), and he told me to "sign the papers or I wouldn't be walking out of court that day" (the form was incomplete but he informed me he would fill it in after I signed it). I eventually was able to engage the services of a competent attorney but much of the damage he had caused appears to be irreversible. To characterize this person as incompetent is both charitable and accurate. His inaction coupled with a probation officer that was even less competent than he is the reason that I have wasted thousands of dollars and uncounted hours attempting to resolve a DUI that occurred in 2010. At the probation officer was eventually fired. The only reason this system is tolerated is that most citizens do not know how bad it is. But they will.

Mr Odell was not hired by me or my wife. He was assigned by the court. On the last five occations that my wife had to appear at court mr. odell did not try in the least to read or understand all the proper paperwork that stated there was a clerical error on the states side of our payments for our licences. Mr. Odell blew off my wife and acted more like a prosecutor than a defender. he did not show any effort to read or understand my wifes paperwork from the department of licencing and debit card reports stating that our debts have always been payed ontime and that it was a courthouse error. Instead mr. odell teamed up with the prosecutor and the judge. The prosecutor, the judge, and mr. odell all covered up the courthouse's clerical error by fining my wife $550 dollars. I feel very sorry for anyone that has mr. odell as a public defendor. he does not care about defending anyone but the state and won't lift a finger if it means putting out a little effort. If I had a choice he would no longer be an attorney. If it hasent been writen out for him by someone else and made easy he dosent care. All he wants to do is stand there in coart in his walmart suit and callout names of people that think that he is helping and watch them suffer for putting their trust in him. I think he should never be hired by anyone, HE IS WORTHLESS.

I know she's a public defender, but it was unbelievable what a mess she made of my case. She made several errors, didn't return my calls and then lost my case. It was actually embarrassing having to listen to her in court, especially when the prosecuting attorney pointed out one of her more glaring errors.

What a Criminal Defense Lawyer Can Do for You

A criminal defense lawyer provides legal representation to individuals or organizations accused of criminal conduct. If you're facing criminal charges, a defense lawyer will work to protect your rights, build a defense strategy, and ensure you receive a fair trial. Their primary goal is to reduce or dismiss charges, secure an acquittal, or negotiate a favorable plea deal.

Criminal defense lawyers have extensive knowledge of criminal law and court procedures. They investigate your case, identify weaknesses in the prosecution's evidence, and represent you in court, ensuring that you have the best possible defense.

When Should I Hire a Criminal Defense Lawyer?

It’s crucial to hire a criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible if you are facing any criminal charges. Some situations in which you should seek legal representation include:

  • Arrest or police questioning: If you've been arrested or are under investigation, hiring a lawyer early on can prevent self-incrimination and protect your rights during police questioning.
  • Felony charges: Crimes such as murder, assault, drug trafficking, or robbery carry severe penalties, including long prison sentences. A defense lawyer is essential in these cases.
  • Misdemeanor charges: Even for less serious offenses like DUI, theft, or simple assault, a lawyer can help reduce penalties, negotiate alternatives to jail, or get charges dismissed.
  • Plea negotiations: If you’re considering a plea bargain, a lawyer can evaluate the deal, advise you on its consequences, and negotiate for more favorable terms.
  • Probation or parole violations: If you’ve been accused of violating probation or parole, a lawyer can defend you against additional penalties or revocation.
  • Juvenile offenses: For minors charged with criminal acts, a criminal defense lawyer can protect their future by minimizing legal repercussions or keeping the case in juvenile court.

What Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Do?

Criminal defense lawyers provide comprehensive legal services to protect their clients’ rights throughout the criminal justice process. Their duties include:

  • Case evaluation and investigation: Reviewing the evidence, interviewing witnesses, and investigating the facts to develop a strong defense strategy.
  • Legal advice: Advising you on your rights, the charges you’re facing, and potential defense strategies, including whether to take a plea deal or go to trial.
  • Negotiating plea bargains: Working with prosecutors to negotiate a plea deal that could reduce charges or minimize penalties.
  • Court representation: Representing you in all court hearings, including bail hearings, pretrial motions, trials, and sentencing hearings.
  • Filing motions: Filing motions to dismiss charges, suppress evidence, or reduce bail, depending on the specifics of your case.
  • Trial preparation and defense: Preparing a defense strategy and presenting arguments, evidence, and witnesses during trial to contest the prosecution's case.
  • Appeals: If you are convicted, a defense lawyer can appeal the conviction or sentence, arguing errors in the trial process or legal rulings.

How Are Criminal Defense Lawyers Paid?

Criminal defense lawyers generally charge clients in one of three ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Payment structures include:

  • Flat fee: For straightforward cases (e.g., minor misdemeanors), some lawyers charge a one-time flat fee that covers all aspects of the defense.
  • Hourly rate: For more complex or ongoing cases, lawyers may charge by the hour, with rates varying based on the lawyer’s experience and geographic location.
  • Retainer fee: In cases where extensive work is expected, the client may pay a retainer fee upfront. The lawyer then bills against that retainer for their work on the case.

The cost of criminal defense services can vary greatly, so it’s important to discuss fees during your initial consultation.

How Much Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a criminal defense lawyer depends on several factors, including the severity of the charges, the complexity of the case, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost guidelines are:

  • Misdemeanor cases: For relatively minor offenses, such as a DUI or petty theft, a flat fee may range from $1,500 to $5,000.
  • Felony cases: More serious charges, such as assault or drug trafficking, can range from $10,000 to $100,000 or more, depending on the complexity and duration of the case.
  • Hourly rates: For cases billed by the hour, lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on their expertise and the case's location.
  • Additional expenses: You may also be responsible for other costs, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, or the cost of private investigators.

Be sure to clarify the lawyer’s fee structure and any potential additional costs during your consultation.

Top Questions to Ask a Criminal Defense Lawyer

Before hiring a criminal defense lawyer, you’ll want to ensure that they’re a good fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask:

  1. What is your experience with cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has a strong track record with the specific type of criminal charges you’re facing, whether it’s DUI, drug offenses, or violent crimes.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Ask how the lawyer charges for their services and whether you’ll be responsible for any additional costs.
  3. What are the potential outcomes of my case?
    A good lawyer should provide an honest assessment of your case and the likelihood of dismissal, a plea bargain, or conviction.
  4. How many cases have you taken to trial?
    While many criminal cases settle with a plea deal, it’s important to hire a lawyer with courtroom experience in case your case goes to trial.
  5. Who will handle my case?
    Ask if the lawyer will be personally involved or if other attorneys in the firm will handle most of the work.
  6. How do you communicate with your clients?
    Be clear on how often and through what channels you can expect updates on your case.

How to Check the Credibility of a Criminal Defense Lawyer

To verify the credibility of a criminal defense lawyer, take the following steps:

  • Check their standing with the state bar: Confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any past disciplinary actions or complaints.
  • Read online reviews and testimonials: Platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google can provide insights from previous clients about the lawyer’s communication, professionalism, and case outcomes.
  • Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should have past clients or other professionals who can speak to their competence and work ethic.
  • Review their case history: Look at the lawyer’s website or professional profile to see their experience with criminal cases, including high-profile or complex cases.
  • Look for trial experience: If your case might go to trial, make sure the lawyer has a strong history of courtroom advocacy and success.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your first consultation with a criminal defense lawyer, bring the following:

  • Details of your case: Be prepared to provide a detailed account of the charges against you, including any documents related to your arrest, police reports, and court dates.
  • Criminal history: If you have any prior criminal convictions, inform your lawyer so they can understand how that may affect your current case.
  • List of witnesses or evidence: If there are any potential witnesses or evidence that may support your defense, share this information during the consultation.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Prepare questions about their experience, legal strategy, and fees to ensure you understand how they will handle your case.
  • Bail or release documents: If you’ve been released on bail, bring any paperwork related to your release conditions or restrictions.

By being well-prepared, you can help your lawyer quickly assess your situation and begin building an effective defense strategy.
