Petersen Law
Petersen Law PLLC specializes in the defense of DUI, criminal charges, and traffic infractions. As a former prosecutor, and now exclusively a DUI attorney / criminal defense attorney who has been defending only DUI and criminal charges for the past decade, I am able to stay far ahead of other practitioners.

My goal is to obtain the best possible result for each one of my clients. We are geared and devoted to maximizing our time and resources in defending DUI and traffic cases. We're conveniently located in Auburn, Washington, between Seattle and Tacoma. I got my first ticket a couple months ago, and after I was done crying I called my best friend.
Services
My goal is to obtain the best possible result for each one of my clients on their DUI or criminal charge. That means access to me as your attorney not only after hours as an emergency situation arises, but also during the week, not just support staff.

As part of having a DUI attorney / criminal attorney review your case, it's important that you know that someone has taken the time to review the evidence, including the a thorough investigation of your case, and that your DUI attorney / criminal attorney is looking out for your best interest.A DUI arrest can come out of the blue, at any time, and under any circumstances.
If you were arrested for DUI, physical control, or minor DUI, you are likely facing a suspension or revocation of your license through the Department of Licensing. You should consult with an experienced attorney as soon as possible after your arrest for advice. In addition, certain criminal convictions will result in a license revocation or suspension.
I contacted Mr. Petersen with only one week until my arraignment. Even with such short notice, he educated me on the specifics of my case and what I needed to do in order to produce the best possible outcome. Philip was sincere in caring that I was as least affected as possible and directed me on how to help him make that happen.
If you are like most people, you are likely not familiar with the language and routines involved in traffic court proceedings The court rules that apply to these cases are located in the Washington State IRLJ, and learning these rules and applying them effectively takes years of experience.

This puts you at a distinct disadvantage as you are likely to be opposing a police officer who has been to traffic court on numerous occasions and knows how to present their case well.We can drastically increase your chances of winning your case. We are highly experienced Auburn and Tacoma Speeding Ticket Attorneys with the court rules and how each court operates and can present a much more compelling case on your behalf.
Petersen Law PLLC specializes in traffic law, and in particular, helping you get your Seattle and Tacoma speeding tickets dismissed. Having fought King County and Tacoma speeding tickets for years, we have a reputation for affordable services with an excellent outcome to keep your driving record clean.

Mr. Petersen has saved me on a few occasions, I've been dealing with him for over 7yrs now, not to many others out there that I would trust with my money. When I need his help I defiantly feel comfortable knowing that he's in my corner. Hands down he will get the job done... !

Went in for a consultation, Philip was very professional and proactive where other attorney's were not. While the matter was settled, I would use the service for the fact he was willing to be proactive from the very start.

Excellent job of defense. I was not expecting as great of an outcome. Charge was deferred and penalty was minimal. Would highly recommend Phil and would use again if ever needed.

Mr Petersen took my case and had my ticket dismissed!! I couldn't be happier! Very responsive to all my calls and messages. I'm coming back if I get another ticket but I really hope I don't get any more. Thanks again!

Fantastic attorney. A friend recommended me to him. I live near Wallingford and made the drive to have that consultation in Auburn. Totally worth it. Great communication, great service and he is always available whenever you need it!

My case had bad facts- I was a little mouthy to the officer- but Phil still got me exactly what I wanted in court. He saved my driving record and my insurance rates. He’s the best!

Philip has been awesome both times we have used his services. He had always been very quick to respond to any calls. He is also thorough in his answers to my (numerous) questions!

Both instances resulted in our favor and I would not hesitate to return to him for any future needs.

He was referred to me by a young woman and after speaking with her, I made an appointment with him.

From the moment you meet him he is 100% focused and working on your legal problem. Taking the time to listen and provide serious counsel. He was both sensitive and practical, very professional. Every appointment he takes the time you need to understand your legal rights, and keeps you updated throughout the legal process.

Knowledgeable, effective, reasonable, concerned, great communicator,I think you get the picture. :)
