Mike
Maxwell
Mike Maxwell has delivered justice to his clients for nearly a decade
and a half, having taken more than one hundred cases to jury. While
at Northeastern University School of Law in Boston, he completed
an internship for the Federal Defender in Alaska where he defended
individuals accused of crime at trial. He assisted in a prisoners'
federal class action litigation in Raleigh, North Carolina that
forced the State of North Carolina to improve prison conditions.
He also assisted with death penalty defense and investigation in
Atlanta, Georgia.
Following law school, Mr. Maxwell
attended the Georgetown University School of Law, where he was awarded
an academic fellowship to complete a rare masters degree in law
in the area of trial advocacy. While at Georgetown, he supervised
third year law students as they defended the criminally accused
at trial.
Mr. Maxwell worked as a criminal
defense attorney for seven years in King County. There, he defended
over a hundred criminal defendants at trial on charges ranging from
DUI to murder in the first degree. One of his most notable wins
was State v. Vigil, where his client was charged with
two counts of assault in the first degree for shooting two unarmed
people at close range. Mr. Maxwell's client was acquitted by invoking
the defense of self defense and the jury awarded all attorney fees
and costs to Mr. Maxwell.
Before joining Bernard & Lundgren
in Seattle, Mr. Maxwell worked as a civil plaintiff and defense
attorney at several offices, including Rohan Goldfarb Rafel and
Shapiro in Seattle, Lucas & Lucas, PS in Bellevue, and the law
office of Kenneth R.Scearce in Seattle, bringing several matters
to trial. His appellate experience includes Thompson v. E.
Pacific Enterprises, a product liability case where the
plaintiff's allergies caused her to enter into anaphylactic shock
and a coma and suffered subsequent brain damage. 115 Wn.App. 1042
(2003). He also argued Sjoegren v. Pacific Northwest Properties,
a premises liability case. 118 Wn.App. 144 (2003).
