Criminal Lawyer Seattle
Scott Engelhard is a criminal defense attorney in Seattle, Washington. With over 26 years of experience, criminal defense law I’ve handled hundreds of Washington Criminal Law cases, as well as cases in many other states and have won impressive victories for my clients. In many instances, I’ve convinced the prosecutors not to file charges at all or to dismiss charges that have been filed. I’ve tried dozens of jury trials and had many great outcomes for my clients, and I’ve also reached very favorable pre-trial settlements in other cases.
