Without a doubt Diego is by far the best DUI attorney in Washington. I have seen Diego in trial and I was amazed by his performance and enthusiasm. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a DUI attorney.

Diego is without question a brilliant DUI and criminal defense attorney of the highest order, with powerful trial skills and a unique way with people that wins over prosecutors and juries, and wins results for his client's good above all.

Diego is a "lawyer's lawyer." One of the best trial lawyers here in King County. In addition, to DUI defense I saw Diego defend a gentleman in a felony assault case. He won it on a self-defense claim. I highly endorse him.

Diego is a great attorney. I consider him the trial warrior. He goes to battle for his clients and gets good results.

I endorse this lawyer without reservation He is the Manny Pacquiao or Mohammed Ali of DUI defense to use a boxing analogy. In other words, a Super Lawyer, a true fighter and winner. He's a consummate advocate and relentless fighter for his clients. I had the pleasure and (headache) of going up against him in numerous trials awhile back and let's just say he really makes the prosecutors work to the point of causing migraine-like headaches; when he puts the prosecutors to the test of proving the case and making them work for it, he is doing justice for his client and making the system work. He is a great trial attorney; very articulate and well spoken and he is indeed one of the preeminent experts in the field of DUI defense. I recommend him to even my prospective clients who are shopping for a defense attorney. I recommend him without reservation

Mr. Vargas is one of the most talented, knoledgeable and creative members of the criminal and DUI defense bar. I have and would continue to refer clients to Diego. I endorse him without hesitation.

I have known Diego for nearly a decade. I worked with him and have consulted, brainstormed, and strategized with him about tough legal issues. I can think of very few attorneys in Washington who care as much as he does about his clients. He treats every case like it should be treated, with utmost care, attention to detail, and confidence. He knows how terrifying the process can be, and does everything he can to help ease the fears of his client and provide the very best defense. His results at trial are nothing short of astounding. I would refer my closest friends and family to him.

If I ever had a friend accused of vehicular assault or vehicular homicide, I would definitely refer them to Diego. He is not only an incredibly intelligent attorney who is passionate about ensuring that justice is done, he is also very encouraging and funny. When you're accused of a serious crime, you definitely want someone like Diego fighting for you.

Diego is a great source of knowledge and inspiration in my DUI defense practice . I regularly consult with him in preparing my cases, and he is always enthusiastic in coming up with ways to help people.

If a friend needed help for an alcohol related offense in Washington, Diego is the first person I would call. While most lawyers are looking for the quick and easy plea, Diego is looking to go to battle on behalf of his client. Definitely deserving of the title "Trial Lawyer"!!.

I met Diego at the Gerry Spence Trial Lawyer College in Wyoming this past week. My practice focuses on DWI defense in New York state. Getting to know Diego at the College provided me great insight to how he is with his clients. His ability to remain focused and attentive to everyone at the conference is a skill few possess. He is someone you can trust.

Diego is one of the best DUI attorney's in town. I have had the privilege of working with him in the past and can personally attest to his outstanding work and trial skills. He also cares about his clients and aggressively fights for them to get the justice they deserve. I strongly recommend Diego.

One word, "crafty". Actually there are probably not enough words to explain Diego's skill set; Diego is a superb criminal defense attorney who is able to totally maximize his talents and do it in a manner that impresses all that see him in action. One great attorney. The prosecution is in for a fight each and every time Diego goes into court; he relishes the challenge of defending people!

I enthusiastically endorse Diego. Diego is one of the best and brightest attorneys that I have had the good fortune to know and work with. Diego's clients are fortunate to have such a knowledgeable and hardworking attorney on their side.

I have known Diego for the better part of a decade and have been consistently impressed with his professionalism, the results he gets for his clients and his knowledge. Diego is a master negotiator as well as a tremendous trial atttorney, a rare combination. (I know this firsthand, I have been on the other side of negotiations and trials with Diego.)
