You have seen all the legal cliches. They have been used before, and they will be used again. The question is, when you are faced with a legal issue, do you want a law firm that is content with generic chest-beating? Or, do you want a team of attorneys that is more interested in showing than telling?
We are Criminal Defense Attorneys in Vancouver, WA specializing in Criminal Defense actions such as DUI, Domestic Violence, Drug Crimes, and Sex Crimes. We take a team approach to criminal defense cases. When you choose us, you will have a group of legal minds striving to get you a positive outcome.
Drunk driving, also known as driving under the influence (DUI), cases can be surprisingly technical. Issues that may arise include breath tests not being prepared correctly at the toxicology lab, improper calibration of Breathalyzers and more. In Vancouver, WA we know exactly how to pinpoint the issues that the prosecution might overlook.
Did the police officer who pulled you over say this or something similar? Did you believe it? Far too often, officers take non-testimonial evidence during traffic stops - such as performing field sobriety tests or portable breath tests - without informing the individuals subjected to these tests that they do not have to participate.
The penalties for drunk driving depend largely on your alleged blood alcohol concentration (BAC) and the number of previous DUI convictions you have had in recent years. The following information details what you could be charged with if convicted of drunk driving. However, these numbers are not set in stone.

Jack Green was the attorney we needed to get us out of a jam. He would respond to our calls quickly and got our questions answered. He had great communication and told us about every outcome that could happen, he was never afraid to put his foot down and defend us. He was able to prepare us for the best outcome in court, wich we got. We would recommend him for anything major or minor, we will definitely call him again if we ever need legal counsel in the future

Passionate, confident, honest, and Above all gets results.
got a DUI in September 2019. It was a very stressful situation. Prior to hiring Mr. Green, I was recommended to go consult with a different law office. I hired them and explained to them that I had a DUI 13 years ago, and this would be the 2nd time. They reassured me that it was far back that it won’t count against me. We went to our 1st court appearance, and come to find out, the prosecutor counted this as a second offense, and my attorney was clueless about the change in the law. I was offered jail time, work crew, DUI charge, and

I had to deal with an unfounded domestic violence case. I’m sure many people say it isn’t their fault or this or that but I truly was innocent and I didn’t feel that I should have to have something on my record or go through a year worth of anger management classes when I’m probably the most level headed person you’d know.
The Justice system didn’t seem to have any care about actual justice. They were going to pursue this until the end and they would’ve taken me to trial and I probably would’ve gone to jail for a while over a simple misunderstanding. I had absolute faith in our

A family member was charged with a DUI. We had no experience with the legal process and did not know a lawyer in Washington State. I went to Google and found excellent reviews for Jack Green. From the moment we contacted Jack he was there for us.
Jack guided us through the legal process step by step. He was able to reach an agreement with the prosecutor and the judge that was acceptable to all. We cannot thank him enough! We recommend Jack Green highly and with no reservations!

I first met Jack when I was a Police Detective and he was representing one of the suspects in one of my cases. I found him to be knowledgeable, personable and, most importantly, honest. Since then, I've worked along with Jack on other things and found him to be one of the most ethical, fair and squared away attorneys I have ever met. He won't sugar coat things but he will work for his clients honestly and diligently.

He was consistently available to us as well as very supportive and kind throughout our work with him. It was clear that Jack focused on building and maintaining relationships with all the parties to our case which served us well. We're very grateful for Jack's experience and expertise and would recommend him to anyone seeking legal advice/counsel.

Jack is the best attorney in town. He is knowledgeable, caring, and professional. If he doesn't know the answer, he finds it. We were more than happy with Jack's representation and had a better result than we even dreamed possible. I would not hesitate to send anyone to Jack. Look no further because he is the one for you!

Stefanie Ellis represented me in a divorce and custody case. She went above and beyond for me and I always felt confident that she had my best interest in mind. She was incredibly knowledgeable and did an excellent job explaining my options. Legal proceedings can be stressful, but Stefanie was very reassuring and I took comfort knowing that I could trust her expertise. I would not hesitate to refer friends or family in need of legal services. Should I ever be in need of an attorney in the future, Stefanie will be my first phone call. Thank you again for your dedication to my case, Stefanie!

I have had the opportunity to speak with Jack Green on several occasions and have reached the conclusion that he really enjoys his profession and helping people in need. He is honest, fair, intelligent and a great communicator. He will always give the extra effort to make his clients feel comfortable and give them all the necessary information so they feel they are making the correct decisions in situations that are not always pleasant. I value his opinions and would never hesitate to refer him to my clients or family when they are in need of an attorney. Jack Green is a great attorney and a great
