Washington imposes mandatory minimum jail sentences and fines, and has the power to take away your license. As an experienced Edmonds DUI and criminal defense law firm, we know that clients charged with driving under the influence need someone to help protect their freedom, property and ability to drive. If you have been charged with DUI, it is important to hire an experienced DUI defense attorney. A conviction for DUI stays on your record forever. Besides the negative effect a conviction will have on your driver's license, it can also lead to losing job opportunities, getting turned down for credit, preventing travel abroad, and losing access to government aid and programs.

promise to work hard to protect your rights. You will be kept fully
informed about the progress of your case. You will also have a clear
understanding about how legal decisions will affect the final outcome.
You will always be in complete control of your decisions and your
case. Many people assume they have no choice but to pay the fine after
receiving a ticket. In fact, paying the ticket is an admission
of guilt and will go on your driving record. While it is true that
only one ticket may not have a serious effect, it will compound
and create additional costs and problems if you receive another
ticket in the near future. It is always worth exploring whether
you should fight your ticket. Under Washington law, you can have
your driver's license suspended for having too many traffic violations
in a year. We think your license is worth protecting, and we have
the experience you need to protect your privileges and rights.
Whatever your traffic offense, it is important to talk to an experienced
criminal defense attorney before rolling over and paying it. Frequently,
a ticket can be thrown out on a minor technicality, or can be avoided
through a deferral. We look for every available option. Our traffic
infractions include: Speeding ticket defense, Reckless Driving,
excessive speeding, Hit and run, Driving while license suspended,
DWLS and all moving violations. Wills, Trusts & Estate Planning Planning for your future generations can be a difficult decision.
