“My successful court case was handled by Carrie Fulton-Brown. She is highly professional, skilled, attentive, understanding, and respectful. Given my prior experience with other firms, I was extremely impressed with how available and responsive she was when I had questions. Ms. Fulton-Brown always got back to me promptly and always answered each of my messaged questions. Most importantly, I was extremely pleased with the results Ms. Fulton-Brown was able to get for me, in agreement with a challenging prosecutor. I had already fired another law firm, due to their pessimism regarding my case. Fortunately for me, Carrie Fulton-Brown delivered.”

Biography

Carrie Fulton Brown, our Managing Attorney at Vindicate, is one of the best criminal defense attorneys in Western Washington. Her skill set is unlike most when it comes to trial advocacy. Of course, trial preparation and discovery are important, but those things can be taught. One element to a lawyer that is not always teachable is the talent and expertise that takes place in a courtroom during trial. Ms. Fulton-Brown’s natural instincts are addicting to watch during trial – juries pay attention, trust what she is saying, and she thrives under pressure.  

Ms. Fulton-Brown takes full advantage of the law and tactfully applies it to her defense practices for her clients. She has secured numerous acquittals at trial and not guilty verdicts for her clients. Putting it frankly, she has nearly a decade of obtaining amazing results for her clients.  

“Criminal charges are high-stakes and emotional. Allegations have a devastating impact on the accused if not handled correctly.” says Ms. Fulton-Brown.  She believes that every client should have a complete understanding of their rights and as an attorney, she makes it her responsibility to provide all her clients with a road map to getting their life back.
