Amazing Attorney

Woody is an amazing Attorney, I spoke to multiple throughout a time of crisis and I went with him for many reasons. I ultimately chose him because he was the only one that seemed to truly care about me, my family, and my mental health. We came out with a huge win for the both of us and now I can put ...it all behind me. He’s a true fighter and you want him in your corner! Thanks Woody

Wrongly Accused DV Case

On July 3 this year, an argument with my wife happened. Not to go into details, but I had been asleep in my room for hours as my wife continued to become more intoxicated than she already was. She decided to call the cops because she was mad about something else, I was woken up by 3 Sheriffs and take...n off even though I was innocent. This sent my life into a nightmare. I was in jail for 3 days, then put on a no contact order with my spouse. I have served a flawless military career for 22 years and you know that can turn for the worst with one hiccup or mark on your record. I needed a lawyer and one quick to make sure the charge of DV assault 4 did not stick. I read reviews around the area and decided to go to Bret. I am now dismissed with diversion, which is even better than what I hoped for. I was worried about the DV charge on a record, because here in the state of Washington, the prosecutors are man haters, and you're guilty until proven innocent. When I first met with Bret he told me he will stand right next to me through this horrible situation. He was as emotional about me succeeding and continuing on with my military career as I was. I will never go to another lawyer again as long as I live in this state. He was spot on the whole time and he truly had my back. Not only did he have my back, he reached out to me to see how I was doing after the case. If you read this review, stop here and pick him...he will not disappoint. An outstanding lawyer!

An absolute force of a trial attorney

An absolute bulldog of an attorney and a force in trial. The man knows what he's doing and is worthy of your trust. Had a case drag out and go nowhere with a public defender. Bret jumped into the case and provided 1st class counsel. If he does not immediately respond to emails or calls, do not be dis...couraged. You can be sure he has considered questions and concerns and will have a response ready for you. The man has called me during vacations, extended trips, while sick, and during layovers. He always had my concerns and affairs in mind regardless of his personal circumstances. Expertly presented motions at hearings and was absolutely stellar during direct and cross examination at trial. My case, after dragging out for over a year, was dismissed after a few hours of Mr. Woody working his magic during trial. The prosecutor nearly cried in open court upon hearing the results. She thought she had a slam dunk, but Bret brought her back to reality and humbled her greatly. Cannot recommend highly enough.

True Professional - No excuses

Without Bret, I would likely have a felony on my record. Bret proved my innocence and I was finally able to move forward with my life. Thankful for the ease and justice he brought to my situation. Words can’t explain. Trustworthy and professional.

From hopeless to hopeful! Thank you, Bret!

Bret has been a godsend. His work and representation saved me from what I thought was a hopeless situation. It felt like the court and judges were against me, and Bret saved me from a wrongful conviction that would’ve changed my life negatively forever. I’m also extremely thankful that Bret was able ...to work with me with regards to financing my legal representation. Regardless of how hopeless you feel, Bret will work with you and your situation to navigate this crazy complicated legal system. Thank you for everything you’ve done for me, Bret!
