Morgan John Wais's Lawyer Endorsements
"There are many ways to judge the quality of a lawyer, and Morgan scores high in all of them. He has amassed a great deal of courtroom and trial experience in his career, and achieved remarkable results. But beyond that, he is a great person in general. I know this firsthand because Morgan began his career at my office in Wenatchee. His work and results were exemplary and we were sorry to see him leave, although we understood his desire to return to his roots. If you need a lawyer that will listen to you, fight for you, and care about the result he gets for you, give Morgan a call."
"Morgan and I were recently opposing counsel on a case that was tried to a jury. Morgan was brought in to work on the case shortly before we went to court, and his experience and skill in the courtroom were evident. Based on this experience, I believe anyone would be fortunate to have Morgan representing them before a jury."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. Morgan is one of the top DUI attorneys in the King County area. As a fellow member of the National College for DUI Defense, Morgan has committed to staying at the top of his game in the areas most likely to help his clients. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Morgan to friends and conflicts. I am proud to call him a colleague."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. I have known Morgan for sevaral years, and seen his great work. Morgan is an aggressive and intelligent lawyer who is greatly respected in the legal community."
"Morgan is one of the premier DUI attorney’s in the Seattle area. His knowledge, experience and thoroughness separate him from the typical defense attorney. I believe I am uniquely equipped to endorse Morgan as I had the pleasure to work with him for over a year. From first had knowledge, Morgan is aggressive, competent and sincere; he always has your best interest in mind. It is my pleasure to endorse Morgan Wais."
"Morgan Wais is a great attorney who consistently utilizes his tremendous skills to obtain the very best results on behalf of his clients. I highly recommend him."
