About
I am a native of Seattle and love it here. My family is here and it is where I have chosen to raise my two college aged children.I feel a pride in our city and in the practice that I have built here with the amazing and incomparable Tim Milios. My practice represents an evolution of my values and life experiences. During law school I had an amazing professor who called criminal defense attorneys the "Keepers of the Constitution" and it had a profound effect on me. I wanted to do my part to preserve what I believe sets our country apart from others. By giving those who are charged with a crime the presumption of innocence we go a long way toward creating fairness. Over the last decade I have learned that even with that presumption being articulated over and over again there are many people in the prosecutors office and often on juries who want to see a person "prove" their innocence. This is really disturbing to me and it presents one of the great hurdles that defense attorneys deal with daily. I have extensive experience in dealing with alcoholism and have a deep understanding of the disease and its consequences on both the addict and the people who love them. I take tremendous pride in the work that I am able to do with the addicted and we often find healing as well as success. I am driven to both domestic violence defense and victim's advocacy. I know how devastating a charge of domestic violence can be for a family and work tirelessly to help everyone involved access the services that are needed while vigorously seeking justice for my clients. I love my work and am passionate about how we do it at Milios Defense. We do more than simply work with our clients, we connect with them. It is through that connection that real success is built.

I initially consulted with Ms. Havens with regard to a friend of mine who got into some legal trouble and needed help. From the first phone call, Ms. Havens is professional, on time, and very experienced in her line of work. I highly recommend her and their law firm.
Danielle Havens is very personable and, despite the inherent stresses of the legal process, makes her clients feel at ease and comfortable. She met with me very soon after I contacted her, and answered all questions readily and with good information. She was excited to help me and outlined a very clear path for dismissal and/or the other possibilities of my case. Competent and professional, I certainly recommend her services.
I first contacted Ms. Havens after being charged with a violation on a deferred prosecution agreement in 2014. The agreement had been set up by a previous attorney in the summer of 2012, and due to the new charge, he no longer wanted to work with me. After explaining my situation through tears on the phone to Ms. Havens, she asked why my case had not been referred to King County District Court Mental Health Court (KCDC MHC). It was the first time that I had even heard of the institution, and after a quick Google search, I began to wonder the same thing. I had been diagnosed with an axis 1 mental health disorder in March 2012, and it was the reason that my case was previously granted a deferred prosecution. However, there was no structure to hold me accountable for my own actions besides the occasional probation meeting. After a consultation at her office in Seattle, my family and I hired Ms. Havens to represent me. She was successful in having the new charge referred to KCDC MHC, where it remained in probation and monitoring until the case was closed in 2017. There were a lot of ups and downs in the case, and Ms. Havens remained on the entire time. I cannot recommend Ms. Havens enough for anyone seeking criminal defense help. She works tirelessly, and is a fierce advocate for her clients. From the moment she came on board, she made things clear: she would help me, as long as I was willing to help myself. Ms. Havens made it very clear that this would be my final chance to make things right and really pushed me to be honest in seeking help through psychiatry and therapy. In advocating for me to be a part of the Mental Health Court structure (which was not easy, given the reservations of the other parties involved, and yet she still worked to get me the opportunity), I was given the chance to learn about what true accountability means. The MHC required me to take a rigorous domestic violence intervention program based on my probation officer’s recommendation, to which I was resistant. However, Ms. Havens advocates that people go into situations with open minds and willing to learn. I feel that I matured greatly in my time working with Ms. Havens and really learned from her, and the tools she advocated that I have. In short, Ms. Havens is highly empathetic, yet provides tough course correcting guidance to her clients. She is intelligent, eloquent, and advocates for people as if they were one of her own. Anyone in a sorry situation would be lucky to have her as their legal defense. I know I was.
Danielle masterfully represented and supported our family member who, as a result of a psychotic episode, was charged with trespass and destruction of property. Danielle, with incredible compassion and obvious competence, represented our family member through the process that resulted in the charges being dismissed. We recommend Danielle without reservation and with the same confidence that she had been recommended to us by a family whose legal situation involved a mental health crisis. Based on our research and our experience, her blend of skills is unique. We are beyond grateful that she was recommended to us and happy to recommend her to others.
Ms. Danielle Havens is a wonderful, helpful, experienced attorney who gets the job done. I appreciate her help in this situation.
Ms. Danielle Havens is the best lawyer that I could have possibly hired for my defense. I was wrongly accused and Danielle fought extremely hard in the court for me, knew the law and the process excellently, and was available at all times in or out of court to answer any and all of my questions and concerns. She is a top notch attorney. I am indebted to her for life for proving to the court that I was innocent. The prosecutor dropped the charges. Even after the court proceedings were over, Danielle still remained available and answered every email and phone call that I had. I cannot say enough good things about this first class, splendid lawyer. She is the best lawyer ever!!!!!
She completely devoted herself to my case and was always available for any consultation and discussion of the case. She answered all of my questions with patience and clarity all of the time and was a true zealous advocate for me in court.
I was in need for a lawyer when I foolishly got my second DUI maybe 5, 6 months after my first one. I contacted Danielle, and she very knowledgeable and confident in the work she could do. Which I needed someone to be because I thought I was going to get the max penalty. I can say I am very please with the outcome of this case. For a second DUI I am paying close the same fee's as my first one went to some classes and I am all done. Thank you Danielle. You can't go wrong with this firm!
danielle helped get me the minimum sentence possible with minimum fines and also helped me get my probation expunged after two years should i not break any other laws
You could not have done a better job of representing my involvement in this case, my feelings about it, and my wishes going forward. The contribution you made to this case and this situation as a whole far exceeded any expectations I had and I want you to know how emphatically grateful I am to you. The right players were in place this time to really make a difference in my life. I hope it will be the same for the other parties involved, but speaking only for myself, your involvement and counsel was critical to ensuring the kind of outcome I needed to feel safer and move forward.

Even after the court proceedings were over, Danielle still remained available and answered every email and phone call that I had. I cannot say enough good things about this first class, splendid lawyer. She is the best lawyer ever!!!!!
She completely devoted herself to my case and was always available for any consultation and discussion of the case. She answered all of my questions with patience and clarity all of the time and was a true zealous advocate for me in court.
I was in need for a lawyer when I foolishly got my second DUI maybe 5, 6 months after my first one. I contacted Danielle, and she very knowledgeable and confident in the work she could do. Which I needed someone to be because I thought I was going to get the max penalty. I can say I am very please with the outcome of this case. For a second DUI I am paying close the same fee's as my first one went to some classes and I am all done. Thank you Danielle. You can't go wrong with this firm!
danielle helped get me the minimum sentence possible with minimum fines and also helped me get my probation expunged after two years should i not break any other laws
You could not have done a better job of representing my involvement in this case, my feelings about it, and my wishes going forward. The contribution you made to this case and this situation as a whole far exceeded any expectations I had and I want you to know how emphatically grateful I am to you. The right players were in place this time to really make a difference in my life. I hope it will be the same for the other parties involved, but speaking only for myself, your involvement and counsel was critical to ensuring the kind of outcome I needed to feel safer and move forward.
I initially consulted with Ms. Havens with regard to a friend of mine who got into some legal trouble and needed help. From the first phone call, Ms. Havens is professional, on time, and very experienced in her line of work. I highly recommend her and their law firm.
Danielle Havens is very personable and, despite the inherent stresses of the legal process, makes her clients feel at ease and comfortable. She met with me very soon after I contacted her, and answered all questions readily and with good information. She was excited to help me and outlined a very clear path for dismissal and/or the other possibilities of my case. Competent and professional, I certainly recommend her services.
I first contacted Ms. Havens after being charged with a violation on a deferred prosecution agreement in 2014. The agreement had been set up by a previous attorney in the summer of 2012, and due to the new charge, he no longer wanted to work with me. After explaining my situation through tears on the phone to Ms. Havens, she asked why my case had not been referred to King County District Court Mental Health Court (KCDC MHC). It was the first time that I had even heard of the institution, and after a quick Google search, I began to wonder the same thing. I had been diagnosed with an axis 1 mental health disorder in March 2012, and it was the reason that my case was previously granted a deferred prosecution. However, there was no structure to hold me accountable for my own actions besides the occasional probation meeting. After a consultation at her office in Seattle, my family and I hired Ms. Havens to represent me. She was successful in having the new charge referred to KCDC MHC, where it remained in probation and monitoring until the case was closed in 2017. There were a lot of ups and downs in the case, and Ms. Havens remained on the entire time. I cannot recommend Ms. Havens enough for anyone seeking criminal defense help. She works tirelessly, and is a fierce advocate for her clients. From the moment she came on board, she made things clear: she would help me, as long as I was willing to help myself. Ms. Havens made it very clear that this would be my final chance to make things right and really pushed me to be honest in seeking help through psychiatry and therapy. In advocating for me to be a part of the Mental Health Court structure (which was not easy, given the reservations of the other parties involved, and yet she still worked to get me the opportunity), I was given the chance to learn about what true accountability means. The MHC required me to take a rigorous domestic violence intervention program based on my probation officer’s recommendation, to which I was resistant. However, Ms. Havens advocates that people go into situations with open minds and willing to learn. I feel that I matured greatly in my time working with Ms. Havens and really learned from her, and the tools she advocated that I have. In short, Ms. Havens is highly empathetic, yet provides tough course correcting guidance to her clients. She is intelligent, eloquent, and advocates for people as if they were one of her own. Anyone in a sorry situation would be lucky to have her as their legal defense. I know I was.
Danielle masterfully represented and supported our family member who, as a result of a psychotic episode, was charged with trespass and destruction of property. Danielle, with incredible compassion and obvious competence, represented our family member through the process that resulted in the charges being dismissed. We recommend Danielle without reservation and with the same confidence that she had been recommended to us by a family whose legal situation involved a mental health crisis. Based on our research and our experience, her blend of skills is unique. We are beyond grateful that she was recommended to us and happy to recommend her to others.
Ms. Danielle Havens is a wonderful, helpful, experienced attorney who gets the job done. I appreciate her help in this situation.

She is a top notch attorney. I am indebted to her for life for proving to the court that I was innocent. The prosecutor dropped the charges. Even after the court proceedings were over, Danielle still remained available and answered every email and phone call that I had. I cannot say enough good things about this first class, splendid lawyer. She is the best lawyer ever!!!!!
She completely devoted herself to my case and was always available for any consultation and discussion of the case. She answered all of my questions with patience and clarity all of the time and was a true zealous advocate for me in court.
I was in need for a lawyer when I foolishly got my second DUI maybe 5, 6 months after my first one. I contacted Danielle, and she very knowledgeable and confident in the work she could do. Which I needed someone to be because I thought I was going to get the max penalty. I can say I am very please with the outcome of this case. For a second DUI I am paying close the same fee's as my first one went to some classes and I am all done. Thank you Danielle. You can't go wrong with this firm!
danielle helped get me the minimum sentence possible with minimum fines and also helped me get my probation expunged after two years should i not break any other laws
You could not have done a better job of representing my involvement in this case, my feelings about it, and my wishes going forward. The contribution you made to this case and this situation as a whole far exceeded any expectations I had and I want you to know how emphatically grateful I am to you. The right players were in place this time to really make a difference in my life. I hope it will be the same for the other parties involved, but speaking only for myself, your involvement and counsel was critical to ensuring the kind of outcome I needed to feel safer and move forward.
I initially consulted with Ms. Havens with regard to a friend of mine who got into some legal trouble and needed help. From the first phone call, Ms. Havens is professional, on time, and very experienced in her line of work. I highly recommend her and their law firm.
Danielle Havens is very personable and, despite the inherent stresses of the legal process, makes her clients feel at ease and comfortable. She met with me very soon after I contacted her, and answered all questions readily and with good information. She was excited to help me and outlined a very clear path for dismissal and/or the other possibilities of my case. Competent and professional, I certainly recommend her services.
I first contacted Ms. Havens after being charged with a violation on a deferred prosecution agreement in 2014. The agreement had been set up by a previous attorney in the summer of 2012, and due to the new charge, he no longer wanted to work with me. After explaining my situation through tears on the phone to Ms. Havens, she asked why my case had not been referred to King County District Court Mental Health Court (KCDC MHC). It was the first time that I had even heard of the institution, and after a quick Google search, I began to wonder the same thing. I had been diagnosed with an axis 1 mental health disorder in March 2012, and it was the reason that my case was previously granted a deferred prosecution. However, there was no structure to hold me accountable for my own actions besides the occasional probation meeting. After a consultation at her office in Seattle, my family and I hired Ms. Havens to represent me. She was successful in having the new charge referred to KCDC MHC, where it remained in probation and monitoring until the case was closed in 2017. There were a lot of ups and downs in the case, and Ms. Havens remained on the entire time. I cannot recommend Ms. Havens enough for anyone seeking criminal defense help. She works tirelessly, and is a fierce advocate for her clients. From the moment she came on board, she made things clear: she would help me, as long as I was willing to help myself. Ms. Havens made it very clear that this would be my final chance to make things right and really pushed me to be honest in seeking help through psychiatry and therapy. In advocating for me to be a part of the Mental Health Court structure (which was not easy, given the reservations of the other parties involved, and yet she still worked to get me the opportunity), I was given the chance to learn about what true accountability means. The MHC required me to take a rigorous domestic violence intervention program based on my probation officer’s recommendation, to which I was resistant. However, Ms. Havens advocates that people go into situations with open minds and willing to learn. I feel that I matured greatly in my time working with Ms. Havens and really learned from her, and the tools she advocated that I have. In short, Ms. Havens is highly empathetic, yet provides tough course correcting guidance to her clients. She is intelligent, eloquent, and advocates for people as if they were one of her own. Anyone in a sorry situation would be lucky to have her as their legal defense. I know I was.
Danielle masterfully represented and supported our family member who, as a result of a psychotic episode, was charged with trespass and destruction of property. Danielle, with incredible compassion and obvious competence, represented our family member through the process that resulted in the charges being dismissed. We recommend Danielle without reservation and with the same confidence that she had been recommended to us by a family whose legal situation involved a mental health crisis. Based on our research and our experience, her blend of skills is unique. We are beyond grateful that she was recommended to us and happy to recommend her to others.
Ms. Danielle Havens is a wonderful, helpful, experienced attorney who gets the job done. I appreciate her help in this situation.

She is a top notch attorney. I am indebted to her for life for proving to the court that I was innocent. The prosecutor dropped the charges. Even after the court proceedings were over, Danielle still remained available and answered every email and phone call that I had. I cannot say enough good things about this first class, splendid lawyer. She is the best lawyer ever!!!!!
She completely devoted herself to my case and was always available for any consultation and discussion of the case. She answered all of my questions with patience and clarity all of the time and was a true zealous advocate for me in court.
I was in need for a lawyer when I foolishly got my second DUI maybe 5, 6 months after my first one. I contacted Danielle, and she very knowledgeable and confident in the work she could do. Which I needed someone to be because I thought I was going to get the max penalty. I can say I am very please with the outcome of this case. For a second DUI I am paying close the same fee's as my first one went to some classes and I am all done. Thank you Danielle. You can't go wrong with this firm!
danielle helped get me the minimum sentence possible with minimum fines and also helped me get my probation expunged after two years should i not break any other laws
You could not have done a better job of representing my involvement in this case, my feelings about it, and my wishes going forward. The contribution you made to this case and this situation as a whole far exceeded any expectations I had and I want you to know how emphatically grateful I am to you. The right players were in place this time to really make a difference in my life. I hope it will be the same for the other parties involved, but speaking only for myself, your involvement and counsel was critical to ensuring the kind of outcome I needed to feel safer and move forward.
I initially consulted with Ms. Havens with regard to a friend of mine who got into some legal trouble and needed help. From the first phone call, Ms. Havens is professional, on time, and very experienced in her line of work. I highly recommend her and their law firm.
Danielle Havens is very personable and, despite the inherent stresses of the legal process, makes her clients feel at ease and comfortable. She met with me very soon after I contacted her, and answered all questions readily and with good information. She was excited to help me and outlined a very clear path for dismissal and/or the other possibilities of my case. Competent and professional, I certainly recommend her services.
I first contacted Ms. Havens after being charged with a violation on a deferred prosecution agreement in 2014. The agreement had been set up by a previous attorney in the summer of 2012, and due to the new charge, he no longer wanted to work with me. After explaining my situation through tears on the phone to Ms. Havens, she asked why my case had not been referred to King County District Court Mental Health Court (KCDC MHC). It was the first time that I had even heard of the institution, and after a quick Google search, I began to wonder the same thing. I had been diagnosed with an axis 1 mental health disorder in March 2012, and it was the reason that my case was previously granted a deferred prosecution. However, there was no structure to hold me accountable for my own actions besides the occasional probation meeting. After a consultation at her office in Seattle, my family and I hired Ms. Havens to represent me. She was successful in having the new charge referred to KCDC MHC, where it remained in probation and monitoring until the case was closed in 2017. There were a lot of ups and downs in the case, and Ms. Havens remained on the entire time. I cannot recommend Ms. Havens enough for anyone seeking criminal defense help. She works tirelessly, and is a fierce advocate for her clients. From the moment she came on board, she made things clear: she would help me, as long as I was willing to help myself. Ms. Havens made it very clear that this would be my final chance to make things right and really pushed me to be honest in seeking help through psychiatry and therapy. In advocating for me to be a part of the Mental Health Court structure (which was not easy, given the reservations of the other parties involved, and yet she still worked to get me the opportunity), I was given the chance to learn about what true accountability means. The MHC required me to take a rigorous domestic violence intervention program based on my probation officer’s recommendation, to which I was resistant. However, Ms. Havens advocates that people go into situations with open minds and willing to learn. I feel that I matured greatly in my time working with Ms. Havens and really learned from her, and the tools she advocated that I have. In short, Ms. Havens is highly empathetic, yet provides tough course correcting guidance to her clients. She is intelligent, eloquent, and advocates for people as if they were one of her own. Anyone in a sorry situation would be lucky to have her as their legal defense. I know I was.
Danielle masterfully represented and supported our family member who, as a result of a psychotic episode, was charged with trespass and destruction of property. Danielle, with incredible compassion and obvious competence, represented our family member through the process that resulted in the charges being dismissed. We recommend Danielle without reservation and with the same confidence that she had been recommended to us by a family whose legal situation involved a mental health crisis. Based on our research and our experience, her blend of skills is unique. We are beyond grateful that she was recommended to us and happy to recommend her to others.
Ms. Danielle Havens is a wonderful, helpful, experienced attorney who gets the job done. I appreciate her help in this situation.
