Raemy at the water

Considering this was my first go at needing an attorney, I would say I hit the jackpot. Put me at ease, handled everything in a timely manner, very knowledgeable and nothing on my record. I will recommend him to any one that asks if I know of a good attorney. Thank you Mr. Greene

Unreal results, unreal closer

My scenario: multiple unpaid traffic tickets (one was a misdemeanor) not addressed in almost a year (way past due) due to financial inconveniences (I'm broke right now). I researched other attorneys in the area despite using him successfully several years ago. Reached out to all of them and ended u...p hiring him again and it happened to be the right decision. I drive for a living so you can imagine the stress of having a suspended license, multiple unpaid traffic tickets. Outcome: He was able to generously accept my unique scenario and work a compensation plan that worked for me. Once hired, I was instructed to provide information via a simple, clear and efficient "Ticket Packet" so he could immediately start digging me out of the hole I put myself in. What I didn't think was possible happened. He was able to go above and beyond to take care of everything detrimental on my driving record. Thoughts: He has a heart, which most people, let alone sleazy lawyers have. He heard me out, was empathetic with my situation and handled every step professionally. I knew he would be able to reduce but not eliminate issues that some competing attorneys would probably not. He lives, eats, and breathes this stuff. I have a list of the best contact of every aspect of my life on a personal list and he is my contact to handle Washington State Traffic Law. I still can't thank him enough so the best I can do is try to convince others on the fence to make the right decision and hire him. Honestly, he's so effective I really don't want share him with others. He's like a secret weapon you want for yourself, ace in the pocket that you can count on. There are others out there, some cheaper, some more. What mattered to me was the attorney himself and their integrity. Glad I made the right decision and happy if I have to use him again, I won't have to shop around again. He's undefeated for me.

Great JOB!

I had the misfortune of having an interaction with an unpleasant Washington State Trooper! After discussing the encounter with a friend he encouraged me to contact The Law Office of Mitch Greene. I must say that his team was very responsive to my situation and provided me all of the necessary documen...ts and information for completion. They kept me in the loop as to the process, time-lines, and how the case was progressing. In the end, I received a note with the desired outcome....WE WON!! Thank you Mitch and your team for working so hard to defend my case and providing the win.

Speeding ticket contested

I have hired Mitch Green before and received good service and value. However this time he was even better than I expected. My court date came and Mitch faced off with the prosecutor and won a partial reduction in my penalties. Most lawyers would call their client and say they did the best they could ...and explain the reduced charges and penalties. On to the next case. Mitch Greene did not do that. He asked for and received a stay, gaining another chance to reduce the penalties further. A month goes by and the new trial date comes up. Mitch was able to fully argue my case and circumstances to the judge for a second time. (no extra cost to me) The outcome of Mitch's effort in court was that all charges and penalties were dismissed. I would have no problem recommending Mitch Greene to anyone in need of his services.

"I endorse this lawyer. I've known Mitch for 18 years. Mitch is quite possibly the best traffic-ticket defense attorney in the state of Washington. He is also a terrific person who always makes time to help his friends and fellow attorneys."

"There is certainly a theme in the client and other attorney recommendations recommending Mitch for a reason. I have known Mitch for 17 years and he has successfully and professionally handled every traffic matter for me and my family, as well as for all of the people that I have referred to him. His fees are not only reasonable, but minimal compared to saving your driving record and your time in defending your own ticket. Despite what a busy attorney Mitch is (due to his immense popularity!), he always makes time for his clients and most importantly, you always know your ticket is being handled, so he alleviates any stress that comes with resolving a ticket. You can always confidently feel that once Mitch is on your case, he will take care of it for you! Most importantly, Mitch is such a genuine and upstanding person that he is also highly respected by the prosecuting attorneys and the Courts, as well as by his peers (all of whom I imagine hire him as well). He is simply the best!"

"I endorse and highly recommend this lawyer. I have known Mitch Greene for many years as a fellow attorney in the King and Pierce County courts. Mitch is a genius in the world of defending traffic infractions, whether speeding tickets or more serious accident infractions or Negligent Driving. I don't know how he does it but he always wins. I have seen him at work in the court's many times. It is quite amazing to watch him step up in court before a judge and prosecutor with a stack of what appears to be 20 infraction files and when finished, walk out of the court having gotten all of them dismissed. If you have an infraction, "gotta call" Mitch."
