Phillip L. Weinberg has defended thousands of criminal cases across King and Snohomish Counties over a 25-year career, operating from two Washington State offices, one at Skyline Tower in Bellevue and one at the Evergreen Professional Center in Everett. His practice focuses exclusively on criminal defense, covering domestic violence charges, DUI, felonies, weapons offenses, and a range of other matters in courts throughout western Washington. Free initial consultations are available, and clients can reach the firm by phone at 425-455-4784 or by mobile and text at 425-367-1122.
Practice Areas
Domestic violence cases form a significant part of the caseload. These charges move quickly in Washington courts, and the consequences extend beyond potential conviction to include no-contact orders that can affect housing, family relationships, and employment. Defense of protection order violations and no-contact order breaches are specifically addressed, recognizing that individuals sometimes face allegations of violation that require careful legal examination.
DUI defense covers alcohol-related charges, marijuana DUI, and drug-related impaired driving, reflecting the range of DUI cases that now come before Washington courts since marijuana legalization. Stipulated orders of continuance and deferred prosecution agreements are two resolution options that exist in some DUI matters, and the firm handles cases where these alternatives may be appropriate.
Felony charges, violent crimes, and weapons offenses represent the serious end of the criminal docket. Drug possession cases are handled alongside shoplifting and theft charges. White collar crime defense rounds out the practice areas.
Department of Licensing (DOL) hearings and license suspension matters receive dedicated attention. In Washington, a DUI arrest triggers both a criminal case and an administrative license proceeding, and both require timely action to protect driving privileges.
Attorney Profiles
Phil Weinberg has spent 25 years building a criminal defense practice in King and Snohomish Counties, defending thousands of cases across that span. The caseload volume reflects consistent practice in a demanding area of law where each matter involves real consequences for real people.
His focus remains exclusively on criminal defense rather than expanding into civil or transactional work. That specialization means his knowledge of Washington criminal procedure, local court practices, and prosecutorial approaches is concentrated rather than divided. In criminal defense, where procedural knowledge and courtroom familiarity are directly tied to outcomes, a focused practice provides advantages.
The firm serves clients across a wide geographic area within western Washington, from Seattle and the Eastside communities around Bellevue, Kirkland, and Redmond to Everett, Lynnwood, Marysville, Arlington, and Mount Vernon, as well as Tacoma, Kent, Auburn, and Bellingham.

The Everett office is at the Evergreen Professional Center, 6320 Evergreen Way, Everett, WA 98203. Office phone is 425-455-4784 and mobile/text contact is available at 425-367-1122.
The service area covers King and Snohomish Counties in detail, including Seattle, Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Lynnwood, Tacoma, Kent, Auburn, Marysville, Arlington, Mount Vernon, and Bellingham. Practice extends statewide throughout Washington.
The two-office structure places the firm within reach of clients across a broad corridor from the Eastside and south King County through Snohomish County and into Skagit and Whatcom Counties.
Client Focus
Domestic violence defense requires a particular kind of attention because the charges often come with mandatory no-contact provisions that take effect immediately upon arrest. Clients navigating those orders while also facing criminal proceedings need an attorney who understands both the criminal case and the collateral consequences. The firm handles both the criminal charges and the related protection order proceedings.
For DUI clients, the administrative license process and the criminal case run simultaneously and require separate strategic decisions. Clients benefit from representation that addresses both tracks rather than focusing only on the criminal matter.
The thousands of cases handled over 25 years reflects a practice built on sustained courtroom activity. For clients in King and Snohomish Counties facing criminal charges, that volume of direct experience is a meaningful indicator of how the attorney will handle their matter.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the firm handle both the criminal DUI case and the license suspension matter?
Yes. Washington DUI arrests trigger both a criminal proceeding and a Department of Licensing administrative hearing. The firm handles both, which is important because they operate on separate timelines and require independent action to protect driving privileges.
What is a deferred prosecution agreement in a Washington DUI case?
A deferred prosecution is a specific resolution available in some DUI cases that involves treatment rather than standard criminal prosecution, subject to conditions and court supervision. Not all DUI cases qualify, and the decision involves tradeoffs that should be discussed with counsel. The firm handles cases where this option is being considered.
Can the firm help with a domestic violence no-contact order?
Protection order violations and no-contact order breaches are part of the practice. The firm handles both the underlying criminal case and the related protection order matters.
What geographic area does the firm cover?
King and Snohomish Counties primarily, including Seattle, Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Lynnwood, Tacoma, Kent, Auburn, Marysville, Arlington, Mount Vernon, and Bellingham. The practice also extends statewide throughout Washington.
Is there a cost for the initial consultation?
No. Initial consultations are free. Contact the firm at 425-455-4784 or by text at 425-367-1122.
