To provide the highest quality legal representation for individuals charged with DUI and DUI related offenses, as well as other minor traffic offenses, major felonies, and all areas of criminal law in general.
For over 2 years, I worked as a public defender at the Snohomish County Public Defender Association (SCPDA) handling roughly 160 cases at any given time. Primarily, I handled DUI cases. I am a skilled litigator, motions writer, and trial attorney. While at SCPDA, I spent time in the Involuntary Treatment Act (ITA) unit which allows me to bring a unique prosective to client cases.
I believe in standing up for my clients' rights and ensuring they receive the strongest defense possible. The criminal justice system can be complex and confusing for new clients, so I look forward to protecting your rights, helping you navigate the process, and getting you the best possible outcome.

Amanda was absolutely fantastic. She fought hard to make sure we didn’t settle for anything less than a positive outcome. The prosecutors drew things out a long time hoping to burn us out into an unfavorable outcome and Amanda did not waiver. I would recommend her 1000% over.
