Reed Manley Benjamin Speir

I am devoted to ensuring that my clients get the highest quality representation on appeal. I have successfully represented criminal appellants since 2002 at all levels of the Washington legal system from Municipal Court to the Washington Supreme Court. I have represented and won appeals for individuals accused of crimes ranging from DUI to sex crimes to multiple murders. I have also successfully represented individuals whose driver's license and/or professional license have been suspended by the DOL or another State agency.  I also help individuals restore their firearm and voting rights as well as have convictions expunged from their record.  

Since 2004, I have also been a partner at the legal research and writing firm of Fraser Robinson Speir. At Fraser Robinson Speir I perform legal research and writing for other attorneys in both criminal and civil matters. Typically my work is drafting a research memorandum or motion, but I also draft appellate briefs in both civil and criminal cases, including administrative appeals.

I have taught numerous CLEs on appellate practice and how to preserve issues for appeal in Municipal and District courts.

Specialties: Criminal appellate practice, legal research and writing in all areas.
