Criminal Defense
The attorneys at Rodgers Kee & Pearson, P.S. maintain a vigorous criminal defense practice, representing people in Olympia, Lacey, Tumwater and surrounding areas who have been charged with criminal offenses ranging from misdemeanor theft and driving under the influence to drug offenses, homicide, and other serious felonies.
If you are arrested and charged with a crime, no matter what the offense, the most important step you can take in your defense is to contact an attorney before talking to anyone else. This includes not only the police and prosecutors, but also other inmates in the holding cell, family and friends, a bonding company, etc. Things that you say, even claims of innocence or otherwise harmless statements, can be used against you by making you appear guilty or contradictory. The police are experts at this tactic, and any statements you make will only help them build their case against you. Whether you call us or another experienced criminal defense attorney, contacting a lawyer as soon as possible is essential.
Our lawyers are experienced in a wide range of criminal matters, including:
- Theft and Property Crimes - burglary, larceny, robbery, shoplifting
- Violent Crimes - assault, battery, aggravated assault, carjacking
- Drug Offenses - simple possession, possession with intent, distribution, drug trafficking
- Sex Offenses - sexual assault, sexual battery, rape, solicitation, prostitution
- Homicide - murder, manslaughter, criminal homicide
- White Collar Crime - forgery, embezzlement, counterfeiting, fraud
Our legal team can help you from the very start, arranging for bail or your release from custody, and making sure your rights are protected throughout the process. We will work to get the possible result available in your situation, whether that means having the charges dropped and the case dismissed, winning an acquittal at trial, or obtaining a deferred prosecution or alternative sentencing that avoids jail time or other harsh punishment.
