Q. Will a vehicular assault charge always disqualify you from working with children/vulnerable adults? Other jobs?

May 10, 2023

A: Most times Vehicular Assault would be eligible to vacate after ten years. You might want to consult with an attorney to see if you are eligible. It's not a "crime against persons" so in most contexts wouldn't be an automatic disqualification. But certainly would look bad to potential employers, so if it is eligible to vacate that is probably your best option. If you have an agency in mind that you want to work for, maybe a good idea to speak to their HR department prior to applying to find out exactly what history would disqualify you?

Q. Is there anyone that can help me to settle my claim for an accident caused by a drunk driver in Washington State?

February 6, 2023

A: Of course, there are many attorneys who can assist. I don't do these personally, but if you want to call or email I'd be happy to make some referrals. Otherwise, you can google search and I'm sure you could find someone. Documenting your financial losses, as you have done, is extremely helpful in getting your case resolved. Unfortunately many insurance companies just won't come to the table with a legitimate offer until an attorney is on board, particularly one with a reputation for doing good work for their clients.

Q. If you get pulled over for speeding by Washington state patrol and they admit to driving 10 mph over can they ticket you

January 6, 2023

A: Keep an eye on the time to respond, it is probably two weeks, not three. There is no harm in requesting a contested hearing and investigating your options, but you will not get a public defender for a speeding ticket. You'll either fight it on your own or hire a lawyer, the court will not provide one for you. Finally, the speed measurement from your app is not likely to be considered by the judge; the result of any speed measuring device is only admissible if proper foundation is laid for its reliability. Consult the WA court infraction rules for the details.
