Ulvar Klein

After graduating from the University of Puget Sound Law School in 1994, Ulvar Klein was quickly hired to be a deputy prosecutor for Yakima County. While working for Yakima County from 1994-2001, Ulvar initially prosecuted cases in the District and Juvenile courts. However, the majority of his prosecuting experience was with the Special Assault Unit handling the most sensitive and significant cases with notable success.

In 2001 Ulvar Klein was invited to join the Adam Moore Law Firm. Adam Moore was renowned statewide and nationally for his criminal defense practice and ability to handle the most complex cases. Ulvar Klein's added experience allowed the firm to expand into defending DUIs, juvenile cases, and into defending sexual assault accusations. Notable among Ulvar's early successes with the Adam Moore Law Firm was the Michelle Taylor trial, which received national media attention for the swift "Not Guilty" verdicts on the accusations that an attractive East Valley High School teacher had been having sex with a student. Since then, Ulvar has continued to skillfully represent the accused in all types of cases, whether it be a relatively simple DUI or a particularly brutal murder.

Because of his dedication to his clients and his consistent success, Ulvar Klein has earned the respect of law enforcement, prosecutors, and even judges. This respect is most clearly demonstrated when these people who work in the criminal justice system need to find a vigilant attorney for their own friends or family. Ulvar Klein has repeatedly been the choice of judges, prosecutors, and police when they need the best help available. Make their choice your choice.

These include cases with multiple co-defendants, the intricate development of all aspects of criminal law and Constitutional principles, and the exploration of cutting-edge technology meeting deeply rooted legal traditions. Such cases involve hundreds of documents, hours of research and writing, and being entrusted with top-secret documents and material.

Robin was born and raised in the Yakima area, developing an ingrained awareness of our agricultural heritage and its importance to our local community, from field worker to ranch owner.
