FAQ

These answers are meant to provide general information regarding common questions asked to criminal defense lawyers. Nevertheless, every case must be analyzed individually. This information is not a substitute for consulting with an experienced criminal defense lawyer about your case. This information is also not meant to give legal advice, but is meant solely for general informational purposes.

How much will it cost to hire Michael as my defense attorney?  
The answer depends on the particular circumstances of your case, the nature of the charges, the complexity and facts of the case, and your criminal history. We provide a free consultation and will assess your case free of charge.  The first meeting is free of charge, and there is no further obligation.  In fact, until you agree in writing to pay me for representation, you will not be responsible for any fees.  We charge a flat fee which includes representation at all court appearances, researching, writing, and filing motions to suppress evidence, and the cost of a jury trial. 


How long will it take to resolve my case if I am charged with an offense in Washington?
While it is hard to generalize, cases in Washington often take quite awhile to resolve. Often your case will be continued a few times to give the defense and the state a chance to investigate the case and see if the case can be resolved without a trial. If the case is eventually set for a trial, it may be reset several more times. It can take up to 12 months before the case is finalized.
