I was glad to see this DUI client's deferred prosecution go so well in court. They require a lot of paperwork and have strict court filing deadlines. Yet they are such a good deal for DUI clients who want help with their drinking / drug problems.. No jail, no license suspension, no big fines, no big auto insurance costs, and no criminal record,

This was a tough DUI case since the court could not find a qualified interpreter for several of our court dates. But the client followed my advice, entered the recommended alcohol treatment and attended a DUI Victims Panel session. Doing those things, coupled with some big weaknesses in the Lynnwood police DUI case, made it possible to win the DOL license suspension case and get the court DUI charge reduced to Negligent Driving 1 with no jail time.

Great advice & attorney, don't deviate from his guidance for best result

Paul is very experienced in the DUI space and the associated legal processes. He knows exactly how the process works and guides you step by step all the way. My recommendation is to do exactly as he recommends and complete all the steps asked of you - ahead of time. If you do, you will be in a much b...etter position and any court case will end up more favorable. I ended up with a Reckless Driving for something that could have been a lot more severe. I would highly recommend Paul to anyone in a DUI situation - he was very thorough, even visiting the scene of the arrest with me and re-tracing the steps of the night.

This case shows how much it helps the defense when a DUI client follows my advice on what actions to take before we go to court. We almost always get a better result when they do that.

Great Lawyer!

Paul is honest, thorough, professional and knows the ins and outs of EVERYTHING related to DUIS. He will tell you honestly what you can expect every stepnl of the way. He spent 2 hours BEFORE I even hired him giving me advice and information on my case. The outcome of my case was better than expected... and very fair.

Extremely Thorough and Knowledgable

Attorney Paul Hanson was referred to me by a good friend of mine after I had landed myself my first adult DUI after being on probation for a minor DUI that was a little over a year prior to this case. I feared that the worst was going to happen to me, until I had my initial consultation with Paul and... he made me feel instantly at ease and dedicated over 2 hours of his time to explain to me what my options were and carefully explained every little detail of each process as well as gathering as much information regarding my recent and past case. I went ahead and decided to go in the route of a Deferred Prosecution and with the help of Paul, he made the process as smooth as it possibly go by walking me through each step to get me to where I needed to be in order to get me the best deal possible. On my final court date, the judge granted me my Deferred Prosecution with a smile and without any hesitation! I can't thank Paul enough for all of his hard work and dedication. I would highly recommend him, hands down.
