Fees:
For a typical speeding infraction case in King, Pierce, or Snohomish County, I charge $200.00, and I waive my fee if, at the contested hearing, the Court enters an order finding that my client committed a speeding infraction. I do not waive my fee if the speeding ticket is dismissed, or if it is amended to a non-moving violation, or if the case is resolved with a deferred finding. My fee for traffic ticket defense is higher in other counties that are farther from my office.
My fees in criminal cases depend on the nature of the charge and the amount of work I anticipate the case will require.
For personal injury cases, my attorney fee is typically one-third of my client's total monetary recovery.
I charge $300.00 to draft a simple will without testamentary trust provisions; if there are testamentary trust provisions, then my fee increases.
