Jason S. Newcombe

Jason S. Newcombe is a criminal defense and DUI attorney with Washington State Attorneys, PLLC, listed in Tukwila, Washington. Before defending people accused of criminal driving offenses, he worked as a DUI prosecutor. His cases have included reckless and negligent driving, hit-and-run charges and DUI, as well as theft, assault, trespass, harassment, and fish and wildlife offenses.

His Washington practice began after he passed the state bar examination in 1999 and moved to the state. Pierce County cases have been part of his work since that move. The firm identifies Tacoma and Pierce County as his local practice area, with additional cases in Thurston and Kitsap counties and consultation on cases in King and Snohomish counties. For DUI defense, his court coverage reaches across Western Washington’s municipal and district courts.

Newcombe’s undergraduate studies at the University of Oregon Honors College combined history with marketing, finance and management. Boston College Law School followed; he graduated summa cum laude and ranked in the top five percent of his class. His Oregon bar admission came in 1997, before the move to Washington.

Outside work, skiing is a winter interest, while summer activities include swimming, hiking and biking. He also fly-fishes. His interest in sports goes back to high school, when he played water polo in the fall, swam in winter, and played baseball through spring and summer.
