This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Miracle Worker

I had a little too much to drink one night while vacationing in Vancouver and managed to get myself arrested for DV. I had never been in trouble before and I was terrified. The other inmates filled me in on how things work in WA, I was convinced my life, as I knew it, was over. When I was released an...d made it back to my home state I hired Joe to represent me. Not only did he manage to make sure I didn't have to fly back for the first hearing, I just got a phone call from him stating that he is looking at my Motion to Dismiss! Joe saved my life and I can't thank him enough. I highly recommend Joe Loughlin to anyone who needs a powerhouse attorney!

I highly recommend Joseph Loughlin!

I was arrested for my first Dui in August 2014. I was very scared and wasn't sure what this meant for my future. Mr. Loughlin was recommended to me from a friend. The very first thing he was able to do is get my first court date rescheduled so I could take the vacation I had planned several months in... advance. next, he warned me that very few people win their case against the Washington Licensing Division. he did some research on my case and by presenting the proper evidence, he was able to win this for me. I had a pretty unique situation, and because of this he worked very hard with the prosecutors and was able to get an offer that I was happy with. He kept me very informed of my options and what the process would be every step of the way. I would definitely recommend him to others!!

Great lawyer!!!

Joe was very knowledgeable and did a great job on my case. He kept me informed so that I was never in the dark on what was going to happen next. I hope that I never need an attorney again but if I do I am definitely calling joe .

Excellent Attorney

Joseph Loughlin is the man! Simply put I was facing my second DUI within 7 years, if convicted I would have faced some serious consequences Joseph ripped apart the prosecution's case against me lessening the penalty tremendously! Thanks again Joe!
