I couldn’t be more pleased with the way Michael Clark and his incredible team handled my case. From start to finish, he made the process smooth and stress-free, allowing me to place full trust in his expertise. He was meticulous in detailing every step of the procedure, ensuring I was well-informed and comfortable with the direction we were taking. His commitment to my well-being extended beyond the legal aspects—he helped me find the right answers to my physical concerns and guided me toward appropriate medical treatment for my injuries. His promptness in returning my calls and addressing any questions I had was truly reassuring. I’m extremely satisfied with the outcome and highly recommend his services to anyone seeking a dedicated, kind hearted and knowledgeable attorney.

Michael Clark and Kristen were lifesavers after I was severely injured in a hit and run auto accident. Mr. Clark came highly recommended by more than one person who worked within the legal system and he did not disappoint. I was in a care center for seventy two days with a broken shoulder, ribs and two broken ankles. I wasn’t allowed to bear weight in order to start my rehab journey to walk again for the first 6 weeks. During this challenging time, I never worried about medical bills or dealing with auto insurance etc. Mr. Clark and his staff took care of all the negotiations with the insurance companies so I could focus on healing. I felt very comfortable contacting Michael’s office for any questions I had. They were prompt, caring and compassionate. I would highly recommend the Law Office of Michael Clark Injury Attorney.

Kelsey was incredibly attentive, always taking the time to listen to my concerns and answer all of my questions thoroughly. What truly sets Kelsey apart is her professionalism and dedication. She was proactive in keeping me updated on the progress of my case and always made sure I understood the next steps. Her strategic approach and attention to detail were evident throughout the entire process, and she worked tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome.

If you’ve ever had the frustrating experience of trying to deal with an insurance company that refused to negotiate, you’ll know what a relief it was to turn everything over to John Ladenburg at Ladenburg Law Offices. Mr. Landenburg did an awesome job of winning a very satisfactory settlement from a company that had ignored our concerns. Mr. Ladenburg’s experience, expertise, and determination to win a fair settlement was evident. We are so grateful to him and his very supportive staff for such a positive outcome.

I can't say enough good things about this team. We reached out to multiple Law offices after our auto accident and no one would help us till we contacted the team at Wattel & York. From the first call Mari Jo, Harley and Zach have taken care of every step. They've answered any questions or concerns we've had and worked with the insurance companies for us. Our accident was a year ago and they are still helping us get our daughters taken care of. I would recommend anyone needing their services to contact them.

Excellent Experience! 5.0 stars Posted by Matt July 30, 2024 I spoke with several lawyers before choosing Matthew. The others I spoke with told me I didn't have a case and even though I understood that and still wanted to move forward they didn't want to help me. When I spoke with Matthew he listened to what I had to say and was willing to help me. He was very direct with me regarding my case which I appreciated. He quoted me a flat fee and was able to stick to the quoted cost. He represented me with my former employer and was able to negotiate a nice severance for me when others told me I had no chance. He was timely in his communication and always kept me informed. I'd highly recommend him.

Derek is smart and aggressive. James is calculated and calm, which gives their firm an almost perfect balance. Danely is very polite and communicative. There wasn’t one time that I reached out and didn’t get a reply or an answer. Derek is transparent and communicates efficiently. He really cares about his clients and who he represents. Although I didn’t get the exact results I wanted (based on a decision I made) I feel that we still got a pretty good offer from the prosecutor (charges will eventually be dismissed) and I’m very happy with their service. The only negative thing I can share is that it took way too long to come to a conclusion IMO and communication with the court/prosecutor seemed very “wishy washy” at times, but thats typical when dealing with “the system” If you need a criminal defense attorney in South King County or Pierce County I would highly recommend Smith and White! They are worth the investment!

Mr Jaeggii was assigned to my case just days before a court appearance after some issues came up with my previous attorney. I believe he went above and beyond what he needed to do, and did a great job representing me. We exchanged numerous emails and phone calls and I couldn't be happier with his work. I feel he went above and beyond what was required and never asked for additional payment. I will not hesitate to recommend him to friends and family should they need an attorney in the future. Thank you again sir, you have restored my faith in the legal system.

He explained things in a manner that was easily understood. The outcome of the case turned out better than we could expect and the process with him on our side was less overwhelming. Highly recommend you hire a well rounded attorney!

He went above and beyond for my case; researching, putting together motions, staying in constant contact on next steps and just being honest with me as I went through a really difficult time and a time that was humbling. He was magnificent and exuded confidence in how he was handling my case and allowed me to see all options laid out in front of me. Thank you, Jay!

Erik is the Greatest! He was the third attorney I’ve had to turn to over the years and he was by far, the best lawyer in every aspect. My situation was difficult because I had moved from the area at the time and I was in a huge time crunch. Faith, in the office, went out of her way to make special arrangements to accommodate me, enabling us to meet. The entire episode was so stressful until talking with Erik, getting his perspective, and planning a course of action. He handled the situation quickly and could not have been more kind. He really cared and understood how upsetting the situation was. I will definitely be recommending Erik Bauer to anyone that needs a lawyer in the area.

I’d like to preface that I rarely write reviews, unless someone or something was truly extraordinary. Jay Krohn was just that. He went above and beyond for my case; researching, putting together motions, staying in constant contact on next steps and just being honest with me as I went through a really difficult time and a time that was humbling. He was magnificent and exuded confidence in how he was handling my case and allowed me to see all options laid out in front of me. Thank you, Jay! As much as I appreciate all you did, I hope we never work together again 😉☺️. If anyone I know needs legal representation though, I would hands down recommend him.

First time I hired Joe was when I was 21 and got my first DUI. Its been 10 years since and ive hired him many times for traffic infractions, arrests, and I have referred him to friends and not once has he ever failed me or left me worried about anything. Shows up in professional attire, explains everything that will happen and gets the best deal possible. Everyone I referred to Joe, has thanked me for pointing them his way. You will not regret putting your trust in him.

I hired joesph in February for a speeding ticket and he said he will take care of it and keep me up to date. A month ago (July) I got a letter in the mail saying if I don't pay it, I will go on collections. So I got a hold of him and he said he will take care of it and call him in a few days to see what's going on. So I did and I couldn't get a hold of him so I figured he took care of it. A month later (august) I get a letter saying I'm going on collections because the fine is not payed off. And I can't get a hold of him. I walked into his office and the person at the front desk said that there has been multiple people that can't get a hold of him. Don't hire him and hire someone else. You'll never be able to get a hold of him!

Dennis and his team at Schroader law helped me out of a corner and situation that seemed to be a lost cause for my family and child. My case is complicated like many other cases, but Dennis was able to convince the other party to some agreement and avoid an entire trial. I highly recommend Schroader Law, especially if you have a complex case. In fact, they are great option in preventing cases to become complex and overwhelming.

She is knowledgeable, and caring towards people. I was anxious at the beginning.

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.
