Charged with DV assault? Hire Bret!

I was charged with DV 4th degree assault. I called Bret who answered right away and represented me in Aberdeen Municipal Court. We went to my 1st court date and he recommended we take it to trial. He assured me they would most likely drop the case and that's exactly what happened. Brets a great lawye...r, I would highly recommend him. Reasonable pricing, excellent communication through the whole process.

Incredible Outcome and True Advocacy

I can’t recommend Bret enough. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and truly dedicated to achieving the best possible outcome for me. Without going into too many personal details, I will say that the result he was able to secure far exceeded anything I thought was possible. I... walked away from my case with an outcome I never imagined, and the sense of relief I feel after having my case closed out is indescribable. What stood out most to me was Bret’s genuine dedication—not just to the case, but to doing what he believed was right for me. He advocated for me with integrity and fought hard on my behalf every step of the way. During a time when I struggled to feel any sense of dignity, Bret treated me with nothing but respect, compassion, and understanding. That meant more to me than I can fully express. I am incredibly grateful for his time, effort, and expertise. If you’re looking for an attorney who will truly stand by you and fight for you, Bret is someone you want in your corner.

Awesome

This review is late but - Brett deserves it. He handled my traffic ticket and explained the possibilities and got me the best outcome. Fair, honest, and actually treated me like a human being. Straightforward, professional, and somehow earned my trust. Appreciate you, Brett — solid guy.

Great Attorney

I was referred to Bret by several of my attorney friends in Tacoma for a criminal traffic violation in Thurston county. Bret was very professional and brought my case to a successful conclusion.
