25%
Divorce and Separation 20%

Few things in life are as traumatic and emotionally gut wrenching as having to go through a divorce. We begin every divorce and family law case by listening carefully to our clients so that we can work with them to develop a list of their top priorities and most important goals. Our divorce attorneys understand the tremendous and the far reaching impact that your divorce will have on you and your children. We will fight to protect you, your children, and your assets.

20%
DUI and DWI 15%

Our DUI lawyers are skilled and experienced advocates for those charged with drunk driving. We know how your DUI arrest and criminal charge is impacting your life. And, we will aggressively fight to keep you out of jail and legally able to drive. Our lawyers have successfully defended over 750 DUI cases since the mid 1990s. We know the DUI laws of Washington State, and we firmly believe that every drunk drive case can be challenged on some level, no matter what the baseline facts.

30 years

15%
Bankruptcy and Debt 10%

Over the last 20 years, our bankruptcy lawyers have helped thousands of clients successfully file for bankruptcy in Washington State. The credit card companies and the bill collectors who do their dirty work want you to believe that filing for bankruptcy somehow equates to failure in life. This is absolutely ridiculous! The bankruptcy laws were specifically enacted to help good, honest, and hard working people who have simply fallen on hard times, often through no fault on their own.

Speeding and Traffic Ticket 10%

Since the mid 1990s, our traffic attorneys have successfully fought and challenged thousands of traffic infractions. Let's face it. Getting a speeding or traffic ticket pretty much always sucks. And, even one committed finding for a speeding ticket or other moving violation could dramatically affect your insurance rates. Fortunately, you don't have to just roll over and pay it. You have very important legal right and options. We will make the state prove their case against you.

Superb law firm!

I worked with Erin Lane (attorney) and Fritz Velasco (paralegal) who represented me for a traffic infraction. Erin was able to get the ticket dismissed. Not only was the outcome great but I also appreciated them being accessible throughout the process. Erin and Fritz are great partners to have on yo...ur side!. I highly recommend them.

Speeding and traffic ticket lawyer | May 01

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I had the honor of seeing Jason at work contesting a traffic citation one of my clients received after getting hit on his bike. Jason was on top of the facts of the case and the applicable municipal codes and came to the hearing prepared for battle. He was a zealous advocate for my client and did everything it took to ensure my client's citation was dismissed. He contacted witnesses, took photos of the scene, interrogated the defendant and convinced a hard-nosed prosecutor to drop the charge. I would not hesitate recommending Jason to anyone looking for an attorney who will get the job done!! "

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
