The Peter D. Dahlin law firm has offices in Spokane, and for over twenty years we have provided superior legal counsel to clients in Eastern Washington. We believe that everyone has the right to legal counsel, and we pursue every case in an aggressive and diligent manner. Whether your case involves family law or requires criminal defense, we understand that the issues are personal, stressful, and urgent. We understand the sensitivity of the issues, and we consider it our personal mission to fight for your best interests. We do not form opinions on the ethics of anyone’s past actions. That is not our job. Our job is to portray you and your objectives in the best light possible. And it is a job we take seriously. At our offices you will always be treated with the utmost care and respect. We’re on your side.

Family law seems to grow ever more complicated with new laws, new case precedents, and changing family structures, and if you are facing a case that touches on any aspect of family law, whether it be divorce, child custody, or inheritance issues, you need an attorney that stays current on all latest developments. The staff at our firm considers family law a specialty, and they study accordingly. They stay current so they are ready to fight for your best interests when the need arises.

Our staff provides more than courtroom representation. We can also work in collaboration with other professionals, such as accountants, financial advisors, investigators, and others in determining your needs and the best strategy for your case.

Our practice is not limited to family law. We also represent clients in criminal cases. When charged with a criminal offense, your freedom is at risk. Unlike in civil cases where your financial assets are the target, in criminal cases penalties always involve measures that limit your freedom, and those penalties are severe. Possible consequences range from probation, jail time, or even prison sentences. The lightest, or least severe, sentences that involve only probation can still limit your day-to-day freedom. The first thing that you must do when charged with a criminal offense is secure sound legal counsel.

The law office of Peter D. Dahlin has more than two decades of experience in providing the best criminal defense possible. Our firm provides aggressive legal representation no matter what the charge. We are not here to pass moral judgment on anyone. Our sole purpose is to ensure that you receive your right to competent legal counsel. And when you choose our firm, you get far more than merely competent legal counsel. You receive a dedicated and talented attorney that is on your side.

Driving Under the Influence is a criminal offense, and the penalties are growing ever more severe. Though the first offense is classified as a misdemeanor, it most often involves mandatory jail time, license suspension, and other unpleasant consequences. Though DUI charges are common, the decisions you make in your case today can have drastic consequences tomorrow. Do not make legal decisions that will affect your future without the advice of an attorney. The law office of Peter D. Dahlin has many years of experience in defending those accused of DUI, and our clients, whether they plead innocent or guilty, always receive better treatment from the courts through our representation than they could expect from dealing with the courts alone.
