Callahan, a nationally acclaimed attorney and author of the Washington DUI Practice Manual, the firm brings a level of technical expertise that few can match.

The Science of Defense
Callahan Law is not your typical defense firm. The team includes attorneys who are trained in the same field sobriety testing protocols as police officers, allowing them to spot errors in arrest procedures that others might miss. Their practice focuses on:
- DUI/DWI Defense: defending against alcohol and drug-related driving charges, including felony DUI and underage DUI.
- Department of Licensing Hearings: Representing clients in administrative hearings to save their driver’s licenses from suspension.
- Criminal Defense: Handling a wide range of criminal matters, from assault and domestic violence to theft and drug offenses.
- Deferred Prosecution: Helping eligible clients enter treatment programs as an alternative to jail time.
- Boating Under the Influence (BUI): Defending recreational boaters against impairment charges on Washington’s waterways.
Written the Book on DUI Law
Linda Callahan’s authorship of the Washington DUI Practice Manual cements the firm’s status as a thought leader in the industry. Other attorneys often look to her work for guidance. This academic rigor is combined with aggressive courtroom advocacy. The firm’s attorneys-including Stephen Burnham and Christopher Kaneshiro-work collaboratively to build custom defense strategies for each client. They understand that a criminal charge can be a life-altering event, and they are available 24/7 to provide immediate support when you need it most.
