Mike took on this case after the state had manipulated the court to remove another top attorney under a highly unusual tactic knowing the states case was weak. With finesse, patience, skill and calculated interviews along with a top notch investigative team Mike systematically dismantled the fabricated claims the state presented refused to settle for anything other than a dismissal. Mike took apart piece by piece each of the states witnesses until there was nothing left but a feeble attempt by the corrupt and incompetent states attorney at the 11th hour to make one last attempt to divert and distress Mike into a plea deal. Mike saw through the new false claims by the states attorney. The case, which on the front looked grim due to the stacked up lies and false claims by King County Sheriffs, the complaining witness and sloppy misguided reports by states expert witnesses, had been trampled by Michael Stewart and his expert team. Michael Stewart with his skill, experience and tenacity brought justice onto the State of Washington and saved a life. We are forever grateful for Mike and his team.

I contacted Michael Stewart after being charged with a DUI. I was extremely nervous of my case given the fact that I had a BAC that was over twice the legal limit. In addition to the high BAC, I had a previous drinking and driving incident that was just under 20 years old. After speaking with Michael over the phone, I felt immediate relief. He did not hide the fact that this would be a difficult case, but I felt hopeful and most importantly felt I was in the best hands possible. Michael understood a negative outcome would extremely affect my family, and he fought accordingly. Throughout the process, his staff, specifically Ashley, was completely accessible and very knowledgeable on all areas of my case. In the end, my results were better then I had anticipated. No jail time, insignificant fine, well spent community service, and minimal restrictions on my license. I would not be in the position I am, had I not hired Michael. I am so happy with my results and am more happy to be able to put this all behind me. I would recommend him 110% and I am extremely particular with high expectations. He exceeded these, and then some. Thank you Michael and your wonderful staff!

Michael was very aggressive with the court in getting the best outcome for me that was possible. He kept me updated at all times even took my calls while in court. Very likeable and relates well to his clients, best attorney I've ever had

After speaking with numerous attorneys and feeling defeated I decided to try one more. It was late on a Sunday afternoon when I left a message not expecting to hear from anyone. I was shocked 30 minutes later when Mr. Stewart called me. He was heading out for a family event but took the time to talk with me. He had a strength and confidence I hadn’t heard from anyone that gave me hope during the darkest time in my life. He was completely dedicated and put his heart aches nd soul into every detail of my case. Although it seemed I had everything stacked against me and everyone else told me it was inevitable I would spend time in prison he dug deeper and came up with an alternative. He never waivered or backed down. He kept me focused and informed every step of the process. I am home with my kids today because of him. I am confident my life would be entirely different today if I didn’t make one more call.

Mike Stewart is by far the best legal representation in the state of Washington. The prosecutor in my case wanted 17 months in prison and $50,000 restitution. Final result with Mike = no time whatsoever and no restitiutuion. And he was going up against Sound Transit. Other lawyers my mom called made her cry and did not listen to any of the facts. Miks is a professional and knows what he is doing . He made sure everything was done right from start to finish. Bottom line , if your freedom is in question and you want to do everything in your power to protect that freedom retain Mike Stewart.

Hands down best lawyer!!! I will NEVER recommend anyone but him. His team was more than helpful! He is easy to get a hold of. On my court date I was a mess. I didn't know how it was going to go. Him and his team worked tirelessly to get the best outcome. He took care of everything and now for the first time in a long time, my family and I can breathe again. He is truly an amazing lawyer. Do not call anyone else but him! If he can not handle it, nobody can.

Michael was referred to me by my sister who knew him when she worked at the Pierce County Courthouse. I had a lawyer at the time, with over 20 years experience in family law, and after my first court date in family court, dealing with CPS and social services, I knew I needed a change--he was too meek. Mike was incredible, this isn't the type of law he specializes in, but it didn't matter. He massacred CPS' case, as well as the outlandishly untrue allegations painting my character as a father. CPS cases usually take 9-12 months to reconcile, best case scenario, Mike had my case wrapped up in six weeks and I received full custody of my five year old daughter. I will never go to another lawyer again, whether for referrals or representation. He is an 11 out of 10 in my book, absolutely amazing, aggressive (CPS actually asked me to talk to him about toning it down--I did not), competitive, everything and anything you'd want when you need a lawyer. Hire this man, you will thank him in the end, and you will see what a real lawyer looks like. Thanks again Mike.
