I gave mr silva a number of pictures that should of made the case a shoe in ( as the police report had a major error) he has no email contact, and I only spoke with him once, I had to print all of my documents and pictures and mail them to him (snail mail). Then when my case was over I never got anything in the mail stating the ruling from the office, instead I got a letter from collections for my court fee. When I called Mr Silvas office the receptionist was really rude to me, and said well our records stated that we mailed it to you so I dont know what to tell you. I called back again a month later as it still wasnt mailed to me and I got the same receptionist, who had the attitude of a teenager, I asked him to mail it to me please, he asked my name, then I asked him what address they had for me on file, he shot back with a sarchastic "well what address do you WANT us to mail it to" I told him then asked a simple question (as I am NOT a lawyer, that is why I shelled out all that money) he then asked me to spell my last name, How was he going to mail me the letter or look up my file without the correct spelling of my last name? then he came back on the phone with the same immature attitude and tone basically calling me stupid for not knowing.

He has never failed me in the 10+ times I have needed his services. In my opinion, the best traffic lawyer in the city. However, he is on the spendy side.

I have had Doug Silva defend several traffic infractions and i must say he has been consistently good. He knows the judges in king county and how to approach each one well. Also, he knows the ins and outs of traffic law and has used that knowledge get not guilty judgments.

He has helped my husband with just about every infraction he has had, with only one exception. It is worth it to pay for an attorney if it means getting off on a ticket and not having your auto insurance go up!

I hired him for a traffic ticket, he shows up doing no research before hand and his only defense is requesting the presence of the traffic cop. Since the officer had shown up, his only defense was to use the 1 time deferral which I could have done myself. Again plain lazy, never again will I go cheap on a traffic lawyer...
