Criminal Law

• Criminal Defense
  Endorsement: I’ve known Scott for several years. Put simply, he is a fantastic attorney. Scott is extremely intelligent, hard-working, and motivated. And his knowledge of criminal law, including traffic infractions, is second to none in the State of Washington. I would strongly recommend Scott to anyone looking for a criminal attorney.
• DUI/DWI
  Before becoming a defense attorney, Scott Leist served as a Seattle Police officer and longtime prosecutor. He wrote tickets and brought charges that he now defends against. This unique perspective helps him achieve the best possible results for clients, particularly in DUI matters and traffic infractions.
• Traffic Violations
  I was unfortunate to get a ticket, but I was fortunate to discover Scott. He was kind, understanding & represented me far beyond my capability. His experience as a former police officer, prosecutor, & now defense attorney was a real asset. He was able to negotiate a reduced fine & charges from the original ticket I was issued. I highly recommend him if you get a traffic ticket!
• Assault
• Homicide
• Hit and Run
