An absolute expert and professional

I was charged with DUI with a relatively high BAC while visiting from out of state. Brian was recommended to me by a family member who is also a lawyer because he was the "best in the state." Based on my experience, I would certainly agree with this statement. Ultimately, Brian neogtiated a very fai...r and just outcome that allowed me to get my life back. I would never have received this if it hadn't been for Brian's persistence, diligence, and expertise in the law. Additionally, Brian is excellent at guiding you throughout the entire DUI nightmare process. It's not fun (it shouldn't be!) but he was great at explaining what was happening and the why behind it. I was always 100% confident that things would work out for the best with Brian as my lawyer and ultimately that's what happened. If you're in the same situation I was, the best advice to get your life back on track is to hire Brian Roach as your attorney!

Truly the best Lawyer

I can't thank Brian Roach enough for the time and effort he put into me and my case. He wears many hats and plays a big part in the Tri-Cities community, without him I wouldn't have had the outcome I wanted/needed. If you need a dedicated and loyal lawyer to get the job done, Brian Roach is your guy.... Thank you for everything.

Best DUI Attorney in Eastern Washington

If anyone complains about him not calling back in a timely manor you may have a point. BUT . The reason why he can't get back to you right away is because he takes on every case that he can he's very very busy . Brian Is the best and that's why he's so busy. And he does not ever disappoint. I have ...sent Brian friends family and some strangers and I have not yet had one of them be disappointed in the work that he's done. He has either gotten them completely out of the charges or they have gotten better results than they would have gotten any other way. Brian does a fabulous job he's very personable has a great personality and I've known him for thirty years or more and i know he's always been a good person . Now he's a good person who can help people . Thank you Brian you're fabulous! Patst Sue Bolson

Exceeds Expectations----Trust the Process

During my case attorney Brian Roach re-assured me to "trust the process." My case took a year to resolve and the outcome was extremely positive. Brian Roach has many clients and when my turn came up to be defended he gave it all of his attention. I found Brian Roach to be a very experienced, profess...ional and knowledgeable attorney who is well respected with the courts and his peers. He fought hard for me and truly went above and beyond. I would highly recommend attorney Brian Roach. Five Stars all the way.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
