Criminal Defense There are extreme emotions involved in being charged with a crime and having to retain a defense attorney. There can be a fear of the underlying charges, a lack of familiarity with the criminal justice system or a lack of information on the type of help you require for handling your situation. Selecting the right lawyer is one of the most important decisions you will make in your defense. The relationship and attitude of the lawyer and staff will be a critical factor in your defense. The trial experience and competence of your counsel is, without a doubt, the most critical aspect of your selection.
In August of 2024 I called Bryan in regards to my husbands arrest on some very serious charges. The next day I met him in his office and hired him to represent my husband. On February 17th 2026 all charges was dropped without even going to trial. I would definitely hire Bryan again he is an amazing attorney and he did exactly what I hired him to do. We are very appreciative!
Do not hire! Poor communication skills, outcome could have been wayyyyy better. Process took too long. So much time and money spent for what. First time felony and got 4 years :/
**STAY AWAY** Terrible attorney all around, for your lawyer needs go absolutely anywhere else. Poor understanding of the law in WA as well as Federal laws. I'd sooner hire a random person on the street instead to have a better chance in a court proceeding. There's other law firms in the area that are much more reputable and respectable.
Unfortunately, my experience with this attorney was extremely frustrating. Communication was lacking from the beginning, with delayed or no responses to important questions. Promises to follow up or complete certain tasks were not kept, and I often felt like I had to chase information that should have been provided proactively. The outcome of my case was not favorable, and I did not feel adequately represented or guided. Overall, I would not hire this attorney again.
Isnt this the guy that worked for deputy Hilton that basically said it’s wrong for him to be charged for beating a elderly man for being at a park after dark and even was quoted saying thats how he would’ve handled it
Bryan is a top notch, fight for his type of attorney. The real deal
I question the morals of this guy. After what he said in court, to a judge, I question his ability to recognize reality
Best attorney in the area for criminal defense. Top notch, seasoned, and knowledgeable with the success to back it up.
Brian is probably the best attorney in Washington State. Although he wasn't able to take my case on, he still took the time to not only listen, he also took the time to give me a little mentoring and gave me sound advice...... Thank you Brian.
Mr hershman is the best lawyer in the area he took my case and fought so hard for me
Thanks for leaving us a 5 Star Review. We really appreciate it!<br>
BEST attorney and most interesting man I've ever met. It's impossible to walk away from a conversation with him having not learned something. He knows what he's doing and will defend you with everything he's got. I've spoken with other attorneys and their immediate reaction is "Oh he's good". Yeah, he's real damn good. I'd never use nor recommend anyone else on the planet.
Nina, thank you so much for these kind words.<br>
Tara, thanks for leaving us a 5 Star Review. We really appreciate it!<br>
He is a great man who I have yet to see how hard he will work for me an my son
When I spoke to Bryan the first nite after my son got into trouble. I knew right then that he was the man I wanted to help our family. We can’t express enough to Bryan how thankful we are that he took our case. He saved my son’s life. Bryan is a straight shooter and gets the job done. I would recommend to anyone who wants the best man to fight for your rights and defend those rights.
Jerry, thanks for taking the time to leave me a fantastic review, I really appreciate it
I cannot express in words how amazing this man is inside a courtroom. You will find no other with his knowledge, professionalism, and abilities. I have never left an online review for anything in my life, and likely this will be my only. I feel this is not just an obligation due to the fact he done for me what no one else could… he is undeniably the only choice if you want the best attorney in the court room period. When everything was on the line for me, Mr. Hershman came through. I owe him much more than I could ever re-pay… Thank you so much!! -JJ

I am hard working 30 yr old young man i am a 01 journeyman electrician, i went to college on a full ride football scholarship and have 3 beautiful children.In December 2021 i was falsely accused of 3 major DV FELONIES and Arrested and placed in king county jail on $150,000 bail and required to pay bond and be placed on house arrest until trial to be released. I called Bryan and explained my situation, he took action immediately and fought a long 8 month fight on my behalf effectively conveying the truth about the case i was involved with, jumping many hurdles and obstacles convincing the prosecutor to dismiss all charges ,to help me regain my life back.There is no other attorney i would ever recommend Thank you Bryan Hershman and staff Alex
