I have spent my entire career focused on criminal law. As a Senior Deputy Prosecutor in the King County Prosecutor’s Office, I handled complex, high-profile cases. In private practice, I draw from this experience and understanding to vigorously defend my client’s interests—no matter what challenges they face.
Under investigation:Protecting your rights.
Are police looking for you or someone in your family, wanting to “ask a few questions?” Are you in the midst of a criminal investigation? Have you just been booked into jail? Call me. I will go to work immediately, devising a game plan, calming nerves, and making sure that your rights are respected from the start.
Charged with a crime:Navigating the system.
If you’ve received notice to appear in court for an arraignment, make sure I’m at your side. I will guide you through complex processes, construct strategies to protect you in the short and long term, and continually remind judges, prosecutors, and society that you are innocent until proven otherwise.
Going to trial:Challenging the evidence.
My extensive courtroom experience and superior tactical skills will work to your advantage if you go to trial. In the courtroom, I will fight hard for you: challenging the State’s evidence, convincing the judge to suppress evidence, and effectively persuading the jury of your innocence.
