Excellent Criminal Defense Attorney

Ali Nakkour has represented me several times in criminal matters ranging from driving while suspended to two DUI cases within 7 years. The second DUI being a very serious charge for me. Ali has always been prepared, assertive and knowledgeable while working within the court. He is thorough with h...is explanation of my options and does it in a manner which I can make an informed decision. I’m nervous when I go to court and Ali manages to keep me focused and calm. Ali is realistic and trustworthy. I didn't know for some time that he even serves as a judge pro-tem! My last case was/is very nerve-racking for me being my second DUI in 7 years. I was struggling with the court orders and faced a very likely 90 days to 1 year in jail. Ali was able to come up with a defense that was very valid and in fact helped me personally with my troubles with alcohol. I am very grateful for the defense Ali provided me. I was certain that I was going to be incarcerated for a minimum of 90 days and he absolutely rescued me from that. Regardless of the situation you may find yourself in, you can rest assured that this man has the know how and experience to give you the best possible defense afforded.

Saved my life multiple times

I have been represented by Ali since he went into private practice from the King County Prosecutors Office. Ali has won a DUI trial for me, had one DUI completely thrown out and another one reduced to a negligent driving charge. Another time, Ali had potential felony charges dropped to misdemeanor ch...arges and then ultimately dismissed. To the best of my knowledge, Ali is one of the youngest pro tem judges in Washington State history. I think that his time as a prosecutor, temp judge and defense attorney give hime a thorough perspective of the legal process. I would defintely recommend Ali to anyone seeking a quality attorney who is willing to really fight for their legal rights.

Exceptional results for DUI Case

I have had the unfortunate experience of receiving numerous DUI's over the past 10 years. When I received my last DUI mid 2010 I was facing the strong possibililty of receiving a 2 year jail sentence. This new charge also triggered a review hearing in another court which I had already spent 6 month...s in jail for and was told that if I had any new convictions I would receive the remaining 565 days of jail time the court had deferred. I had also previously used my 1 deferral on my 3rd DUI. I am not sure how he did it, but Ali was able to get an SOC on my new DUI which basically was like receiving another deferred prosecution, no jail time and if I dont get into further trouble for a 5 year period the DUI goes away. On the review hearing which I was facing 565 days Ali made his arguements and the court decided to take no further action. I chose Ali after visiting with many highly rated DUI attorneys as Ali was the only attorney that immediately had a game plan on our first meeting and was able to put my mind at ease that I wasnt necessarily out of options. Ali seems to have a very extensive knowledge of the law and case histories that enabled him to leverage the most favourable outcome. I am truly impressed and would recommend him to anyone.
