Dismissed
Christopher Maryatt was recommended to me by a friend. She was absolutely correct when she said he was a very good attorney.

"I endorse this lawyer. Chris Maryatt is an extremely skilled practitioner who provides a personal touch in addressing the issues and responding to a client's questions and concerns regarding their case."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"Chris is warm and knowledgable, and he would serve client well."
"Chris is a strong and tireless advocate. His time as a prosecutor gives him unique perspective into what the other side is thinking, which translates into better outcomes for his clients."
"I have known Chris since law school, and he consistently possesses a warm personality and outgoing spirit. After law school, he worked at the King County Prosecutor's Office handling numerous DUI's and other serious cases on a daily basis. He was always kind to opposing counsel, respectful of the defendants and their situations, and a strong advocate for the state. He applies that same skill set to criminal defense, where he combines his zealous advocacy with compassion and strong communicating skills, putting his clients at ease while doing the best possible job on their case."
"I trust Chris with my clients without question. When I'm in trial he goes to court with my other clients, he's kind, respectful, and thinks on his feet is a situation arises that we did not expect. My clients leave feeling cared for and confident that while I may not have appeared they were in good hands. Chris' ethics also are something I admire."
