  • ASSAULT AND HOMICIDE CASES: We have tried and won a variety of high-profile assault, domestic violence, vehicular homicide, and murder cases.
    Most recently Mr. Thayer obtained dismissal for a client charged with first degree manslaughter arising out of a hunting accident that occurred in Skamania County, Washington. See article dated May 7, 2010.
  • MARIJUANA GROW/MANUFACTURE AND DRUG CASES: Utilizing the Constitutional right to privacy and other procedural safeguards, we have won numerous marijuana manufacture/grow, drug possession and drug delivery cases, including some of the most notorious in the history of Southwest Washington and Idaho.
  • DUI/DWI/DRUNK DRIVING: The potential consequences of a DUI conviction can be devastating, including the loss of license, jail time, fines, and increased insurance premiums. We bring 30 years of expertise and experience to the defense of these cases, and regularly win those we take to trial.
  • SEX CRIMES: Perhaps more innocent men are accused and charged with rape and molestation than any other felony offense. We believe nothing is more important than the acquittal of an innocent man, and our reputation for winning these cases is unsurpassed.
    Most recently Mr. Thayer obtained dismissal of a first degree child molestation charge for a police officer in Skamania County, Washington in April 2010. See article for additional information.
