Gene E. Piculell

Back in May of 2018 I had been arrested for a DUI. I did a rigorous search for an Attourney that could help me figure out the best way to lessen the charge! After going through a process of elimination I found Gene was the perfect man for the job! Not only is he very educated in law, he is also a fam...ily man who understands the urgency and consequences these charges can have on an individuals life! After countless hours of communication and time in court we have successfully got the DUI charge (3x over the limit for THC) reduced to reckless driving with no jail time and limited probation. I cannot find the right words to describe how grateful I am for the time and effort he put into my case! If you’re looking to find a solid and very experienced defense attorney give his office a call! Thank you Gene & Kathy for being there for me every step of the way!

I was charged with an assault after an event at a party where I was defending myself, I called and talked to several attorneys before choosing Mr. Piculell. Gene invited me to his office for a consultation, where he thoroughly reviewed the police report and my side of the story. Gene’s assessment of ...the case was that it was “defensible”, all of this before he asked me for a dime. My case lasted nearly a year and during this time, naturally, I wanted to call him 50 times a day and ask a million questions. However, I respected the fact that he was a professional, and trusted the process. Throughout the year the prosecutor added charges and tried to bully me into taking a plea. Gene could have easily talked me into taking a deal, he could’ve been done with my case, and moved on ( MOST ATTORNEYS WOULD HAVE ) but he didn’t, we went to trial. The city had 4 “witnesses” including an officer, who were all lying about the event. I was not certain I would win considering the “evidence” against me, but this is where Gene turned into a ROCKSTAR. During the trial, Gene dismantled all the witnesses one by one including the officer, he was nothing short of AMAZING. From choosing the jury to his closing statements, it was like watching an artist paint a masterpiece, every move he made, every word he said, and every projection of body language, was calculated and EFFECTIVE. Gene’s ability to anticipate witnesses’ testimony and thoroughly examine them on the stand was like something out of a movie. Thanks to Mr. Piculell, I won my case. I can almost guarantee that if I hired a different attorney, I would have taken a plea. In summary, hiring Gene was one of the best decisions of my life. Obviously, I would recommend Gene a thousand times.

A warrior with an endless knowledge of the law. Mr. Piculell provided me an excellent service during a very incomprehensible period of my life. Will need more than 5 stars rating system to properly rate his attention to detail, great communications skills, knowledge of the law and ready smile despite... my negative point of view towards the legal system, not to mention the energy and passion during trial. The system might be broken and difficult to deal with, but Mr. Piculell have all the skills and qualifications to be your warrior that will protect your rights, help you make decision base in facts and not in fear throughout the process while working extremely hard for the best possible outcome. Also, I want to acknowledge and shout-out a big thanks to Kathy, his staff member; for always finding a way to bring me back from the negative zone by reassuring that I have the best qualify lawyer in Bellevue by my side…. She is more than 100% correct!

Well to start this review i been using Gene for several legal cases I have had through out the years. Always very easy to get ahold of and if he's is busy you can always chat with this assistant who gets back to you in a timely manner. With some of my charges gene has given me very good legal advise.... And advised me in the best route we should do to better the case. Yes all cases can't be won be he definitely tried his best for me and in my book he won by getting several charges either dismissed or lowered. When Gene approachs court rooms judge, attonerys and prosecutor's he is very well known By them. I even went to Kittias County court last year and the judge said to me when we were done You have a very good attorney. So to conclude this review Yes I do recommend Gene Piculell as a attorney. 5 stars

I am an attorney in Seattle and have known Gene for many years. When any of my clients need a referral for criminal defense work I refer them to Gene. He knows the criminal justice system in Seattle and King County. He is respected by the judges and prosecutors. He practices with a high ethical... standard. The results he obtains are consistently good for his clients.
