Services
Mr. Sheehan cannot begin work on your case until he has received all of these items. If you do not have either a copy of the ticket, or written notice of your Contested Hearing date, please be sure to provide Mr. Sheehan with your case information by answering the questions on the bottom of our "Fee Agreement."
Mr. Sheehan charges flat fees, not hourly fees. Flat fees provide more certainty and, in many cases, better value for clients. When an attorney charges hourly fees, clients do not know how much the attorney's services will cost them until the end of the case. With flat fees, clients know exactly how much Mr. Sheehan's services will cost them up front, when they hire him.
Whether minor or serious, a traffic ticket can have a far-reaching effect on your life. Beyond expensive traffic ticket fines, the prospect of higher insurance premiums can turn a simple mistake into a lasting burden. Some may face a license suspension, criminal record, or even the loss of their job.
Mr. Sheehan regularly represents clients in all counties along the I-5 corridor (Clark, Cowlitz, King, Lewis, Pierce, Skagit, Snohomish, Thurston and Whatcom counties) plus Adams, Grant, Kitsap, and Kittitas Counties. If you've received a ticket in a different county, please call and Mr. Sheehan will refer you to an attorney who can help.

I was referred to Michael by a co-worker when my teenager received a driving infraction. Michael favorably resolved the issue and was great to work with. I would highly recommend Michael - very professional, honest, and easy to work with. Thanks Michael!

My experience with Michael Sheehan (twice now over the years) is always extremely positive / top drawer. From quick response to my initial call to responding to the court...to appearing on my behalf and wrapping it up at the end...his efforts can be characterized by a high level of professionalism, clear grasp of process / procedure / the law, sound management of expectations and crystal clear, efficient communication. I highly recommend Michael....

Michael was highly referred by a family member and did not dissappoint. Had a few complicated traffic tickets over past year and a half during COVID timeframe, and Michael and his team were "on Point" and proactive throughout the process with timely communication, and ultimately 100% positive resolution. Problem Gone! Highly recommend Michael Sheehan. Thanks again Mike..

I had incurred a few speeding tickets early on in 2021, and began to panic. After some research, I was recommended Mr. Sheehan by my girlfriend's family. They assured me there was nothing to worry about and Mike would take care of everything. Boy were they right! I hired Mike for a modest fee and he's been able to dismiss all of my tickets. He's extremely sympathetic, professional, and he'll update you on the progress of your case. From now on I won't trust any attorney other than Michael Sheehan for traffic-related tickets!

First things first thank you to Mike Sheehan and his law office for getting my speeding ticket dismissed! Thank you for making it so easy and pain free to get the dismissal also. I submitted my needed documents and funds waited patiently and boom I get the email to brighten up my day with a great result. I appreciate that I did almost nothing in the process I didn’t even have to constantly reach out to see where in the progress see were allowing me to focus on everyday life. Thank you for being trustworthy and all though I hope I don’t have to use your services again I know I’m not perfect

I hired Mike a few days after my car crash, and remember asking him if his fee would include the fine on the ticket and he replied that if he was not to dismiss it, I would get my money back. It gave me some assurance that I hired someone reliable. As time went on, I tried calling him but had no luck so I sent him an email with pictures substantiating my point about not being at fault. I did not hear from him.
Today, following my court date/time he sent me a personal email letting me know about the dismissal. I was impressed amd grateful for it. He got it done. Kudos to him.

Michael is very professional and a good lawyer. When I called him about help with speeding ticket, he made me feel to trust him from the beginning. When I had some questions, he was responding very quickly to Emails or messages. He done great job to clean my driving record from the ticket . I would very recommend him to everyone who going to have or have some traffic tickets.

Michael is amazing, he helped me with the ticket that I've got for the HOV lane recently to not show up on my record, plus he is helping people in the LIMO industry a lot, my friend who has a big limo company used Michael's services a lot and he recommended him. I'll definitely use his services again. Good job! 👍👍👍
