He will always go over and above to help. Mine was a difficult case which Peter helped to navigate in the best way possible. I would not hesitate to recommend Peter’s services - you will be in safe hands!

Me. Carroll and I had a lot in common in terms of interest in baseball so that definitely helped. He did everything he could to help me get my case closed in my favor due to my being out of town situations and I couldn’t have been more happy with his service.

I hired these guys several years ago for a distruction of property charge. The result? I was convicted, sentenced to two months in jail, and lost my security clearance permanently. This was my first offense ever and these guys could not keep me out of jail. They also told me I could get my security clearance back which is not true. I have never been able to get it back after all these years due to this. I was also forced to file a waiver for my right to appeal and expungement (which seemed moot since convictions are never expunged anyway in VA). Do not waste your money on these guys. You are better off getting a public defender. Note that all of the reviews on their website are fake (easy to do when you own the site) and they have many shill reviews on Google and other sites where they pay people to write positive reviews.

I was facing a misdemeanor charge that would have completely uprooted my life and family’s well being as I moved out of state and jurisdiction shortly after being charged. I consulted with a few other criminal defense attorneys prior to getting a consult with Mr. Anderson and my instincts led me to believe Patrick Anderson’s firm was the best route to pursue for representation. I am SO unbelievably grateful I trusted my gut on this. Mr. Anderson and his associate, Willie Mejia, went above and beyond to keep a federal misdemeanor charge from growing “arms and legs”, and helped me get a best case scenario out of a seemingly impossible situation. They preserved my freedom and that is priceless. I would hands down recommend them to anyone dealing with criminal federal charges in the NoVA community. Their professionalism, transparent communication, and compassion gave me peace of mind throughout the entire process from fearing the unknown to case closed!

If you find yourself in a situation that requires an attorney, let me recommend a firm that works hard to resolve the legal challenges of each client.
How would I know that? Unfortunately, I have had to secure the PNA firm on different issues concerning a family member.
Even though, I’ve interacted with many of the attorneys on staff, Jessica Richardson has been the one that was retained for several of the most recent cases.
Throughout each process, Richardson has shown a certain character that allows you to feel comfortable in insuring that everything is going to alright. She was honest and forthright during each case and was able to obtain a much better result than we had anticipated.
Jessica has been responsive and attentive to all of our concerns by answering our questions in detail with the most simplistic explanation, and always keeping us in the loop.
It is clearly evident that when she is presenting her cases in court, she is quite knowledgeable in her field and is well respected.

When I was going through my divorce this past year, Tawyna was the right person to represent me. She was all business and fought for me like no lawyer I have ever had. If you need a strong lawyer, that has your back, and always thinking about you and your needs, she is the lawyer you for you.She saves me lots of money and was always very professional and matter of fact. The billing retainer was very reasonable in which my ex spouse spent three times more than my case. I didn’t have to be pay my ex spouse attorney fees, which saved me tons of money. Tawyna is the lawyer you need and would be foolish to go with someone else. Will go to battle with her again in the future. Her legal team is amazing and the model of professionalism. If you need a lawyer, better call Tawyna!

I was referred to Tawnya by The Alexandria Bar Association (ACBA) Lawyer Referral Service, for my uncontested divorce.
I arrived at the office for my consultation appointment. The receptionist (a gentleman, didn't catch his name) didn't tell Tawnya that I arrived. 10 minutes later, she came out, and was surprised to see me. Unfortunate, but fine. Now we can begin.
We get to her office, and the conversation went thus:
What's your situation? I'm getting a divorce
How long were you married? 6 years
I sent you paperwork, you didn't complete it. Yes I did, I emailed it back to you.
Do you have a signed settlement agreement? No, she won't sign.
Did you send that to me? Yes, in the same email.
Oh! There it is.
I was beyond frustrated. I booked a 30 minute appointment, and the majority of it was eaten answering questions that I had already provided answers and documentation for when she requested it 4 days prior. I was very thorough, to avoid this exact scenario. I wanted this meeting to be productive. It wasn't.
She talked me through the process, answered a few specific questions I had brought with me, but ultimately, nothing I couldn't have found online. Very disappointing experience.

Recently had the priveledge of working with Ms Stover, and would like it to be known how skilled of a professional she is. She not only takes the time necessary to focus on your needs, but will go to bat as soon as she needs to. For anyone searching google to find a lawyer fit to handle any legal obligation do yourself a favor, and book a consultation.

Yancey and Zach are phenomenal attorneys and I couldn't be more pleased with the way that they handled my case. They were true professionals from the start, and treated me with respect and compassion throughout the whole scary and uncertain process. They made themselves available to answer any questions I had or to walk me through any concerns that I brought up. I felt comfortable in all of my interactions with them and they kept me up to speed on all things legal related to my case. Although I would not wish my experience on anyone, I will forever be grateful to Yancey Ellis and Zach Deubler for getting me through the most traumatic experience of my life. I am incredibly thankful for the professionalism and care they showed not only me, but my family as well. They are the best of the best!

Yancee Ellis, who handled my case, not only quickly understood the facts of the case from my descriptions, he also researched and uncovered additional facts on line, and from his sources, and developed winning defense arguments at the Preliminary Hearing, resulting in an extraordinarily rare, "No Probable Cause" outcome bringing my case to a successful conclusion. I hearty recommend him, and the firm for anyone needing good, through legal council.

Emily Sripinyo is a Legal Superstar! 🌟
Emily Sripinyo truly went above and beyond in reviewing my prenup. Despite juggling a busy schedule with other court cases, she made sure to dedicate ample time and attention to my needs. The prenup, originally drafted by my fiancée's lawyer, was a daunting 37 pages long, filled with complex legal jargon. Emily was a beacon of clarity and support, consistently reminding me that my fiancée and I are on the same team. She meticulously sifted through the document, eliminating unnecessary terms and provisions, and brilliantly condensed it to a much more manageable 24 pages.
Her explanations were clear and thorough, making what seemed like an overwhelming task feel completely manageable. Emily's dedication, expertise, and personable approach made the entire process so much easier for me. I am incredibly grateful for her outstanding work and highly recommend her to anyone in need of legal assistance. Emily Sripinyo is truly the best! 🙌✨

Exceptional Representation: Kylie
I can't express enough how grateful my roommate and I are for having Kylie represent us during our potential eviction ordeal. From the outset, Kylie's affordability, coupled with her exceptional communication skills, put us at ease. Throughout the entire process, she made sure we understood every step and procedure involved, ensuring transparency and clarity. Her dedication to our case was evident, and she went above and beyond to ensure a smooth resolution. Thanks to Kylie, what could have been a stressful experience turned into a manageable situation. We highly recommend her services to anyone in need of reliable legal representation. My roommate and I are young women with little experience of legal proceedings. I promise you won’t regret your decision!

Mr. Bose did everything he could and got me down to a simple speeding ticket from a reckless. Goated

In high stakes cases, there is no better than Bose. I was charged with Reckless by a super tough State Trooper who was a ticked off donkey. He didn't like that I had a bad record. I had another Reckless conviction in the past, numerous speeding charges and a - 5 record even after taking a driver improvement course. On court date, the battle was on. Trooper was fired up and they at first refused to take this charge down to something which wouldn't end my job as a commercial driver. I saw it. Bose spent hours in that room breaking down that trooper and the prosecutor. Finally, I ended up with a 3 point charge and a fine. Job saved. Bose came recommended by my family and they told me no one was better. I believe them now. He charges a little more than other lawyers but he is absolutely the best. His experience as a former cop and his decades of experience at this shows. High stakes cases - Bose. No question.

The greatness about Mr.Bose is he understands the "INNER YOU" using his UNIQUE SKILLSET. I can guarantee whomever he meets, they see his mesmerizing humanity. Being generous at a level of heart, Asked me to settle down from the shock first and gave honest advise over phone even before appointment.
Two days later, I meet him at his office and gave walk-through on the incident. As an active listener and an experienced analyst, He connected all the dots in no time. With deep knowledge on different aspects of law like Security, Defense, Immigration, Crime.. if there exists any case he explained my next steps which made me feel confident. Mr. Bose's past experience as a police officer, investigator makes him see things in all possible angles. I knew with my incident I never think wrong. But what I learned is "why I behaved the way I behaved". I bet his UNIQUE interview technique makes you understand what is happening to you as person. Above all he is a great human who sees honesty in you despite of what happened. Mr. Bose goes beyond and beyond as attorney, In my case he is a great counselor. He helps us think and process the things crystal clearly. The reasoning and logic he provided, Helped me to with deal the situation emotionally and see the facts at hand. Then and there I felt from the bottom of my heart, I am in right hands and am speaking to a bother and coach NOT just to a lawyer.
The fees paid is insignificant, Mr. Bose's social and spiritual insights helped us find the solace. My Mom despite of language barrier, She felt his professional and personal care. I am sure future holds good for us, Feeling very lucky to hire him. If you have any minor or major issues, I bet he is go to person. Bless you and your family Bose ji..

If you're seeking excellent representation for a dog bite claim, I highly recommend Curcio Law of Alexandria. Rakin Hamad, Esquire, provided outstanding legal services and ensured I received fair compensation for a serious dog bite injury. Mr. Hamad was thorough, clearly explained the legal process, and promptly followed up on all action items. If you’re dealing with a personal injury related to a dog bite, Curcio Law and Mr. Hamad are the team to trust.

Writing this review is challenging because my experience exceeded what I thought was even possible.

Damon Colbert is top tier! You won’t regret hiring him. In my loved ones case, we learned just how unjust the justice system is. The first attorney we hired was recommended to us by a friend and he completely dropped the ball. Never visited the jail, didn’t answer phone calls, kept us completely out of the loop and failed to produce results.
We decided to hire Mr. Colbert just a couple of months before trial and immediately saw the difference. He stepped in and was very attentive, timely, and personable from the day we retained him. He was also affordable. Out of the dozens of attorneys we spoke with, Damon was the only one who didn’t seem motivated by money. He actually cared. He routinely visited the jail at least once a week. We (the family) never felt like we were burdening him with questions or as if we had to chase him down for updates. He always contacted us first as soon as he received updates.
He was truly a blessing throughout this whole process. Especially given the fact that he had to pick up the slack of another attorney on such short notice. He did great at trial and presented the evidence clearly and professionally. Even when the prosecutors were twisting facts, he made sure the jury understood the truth. & most importantly the jury found him not-guilty of a charge that he would’ve been facing up to a decade of jail time for. Thank you, again!

I have not personally met Mr Colbert, or seen him in action, however I have recently learned from my second family, how he helped my "nephew" out of what seemed like a bad situation, especially in our Commonwealth state. Its my understanding he was very attentive and thorough before and during the trial. The outcome was in our favor! Thanks Mr. Colbert, you are a breath of fresh air to this family!!

The scariest and darkest day of my life was when the FBI picked me up. I felt helpless and didn’t even know where to begin to find legal representation. Fortunately for me, I found Marina Medvin. She has been a light throughout this entire process.
Marina is an exceptional attorney and a fierce advocate for her clients. She is also a genuinely lovely person. My case was ultimately dismissed and I am free man today. For that, I am forever grateful to Marina. I do not know what I would have done without her.

I highly recommend Robert Brandt. One of the best decisions I've ever made was to choose Robert. I sought his services and expertise because I read reviews that he takes great care to lead you through the process, answering all of your questions, and that it would be him that would be dealing with me and my concerns and stresses. I can attest that the reviews are true. Robert is amazing and I always felt I was in good hands because he is an expert with Ch. 13 BKs. I always felt he was being honest with me and sincere. Because he is so knowledgeable about the law, he advised me when was the best time to file, in MY best interest. That's what a good counselor does; looks out for your best interest, and ensures you have the facts you need so you can make an informed decision. I will always be grateful to The Law Office of Robert S. Brandt.

Yancey and Zach are phenomenal attorneys and I couldn't be more pleased with the way that they handled my case. They were true professionals from the start, and treated me with respect and compassion throughout the whole scary and uncertain process. They made themselves available to answer any questions I had or to walk me through any concerns that I brought up. I felt comfortable in all of my interactions with them and they kept me up to speed on all things legal related to my case. Although I would not wish my experience on anyone, I will forever be grateful to Yancey Ellis and Zach Deubler for getting me through the most traumatic experience of my life. I am incredibly thankful for the professionalism and care they showed not only me, but my family as well. They are the best of the best!

Excellent service in every respect! Yancee Ellis, who handled my case, not only quickly understood the facts of the case from my descriptions, he also researched and uncovered additional facts on line, and from his sources, and developed winning defense arguments at the Preliminary Hearing, resulting in an extraordinarily rare, "No Probable Cause" outcome bringing my case to a successful conclusion. I hearty recommend him, and the firm for anyone needing good, through legal council.

In November 2024, I watched Mr. Jenkins cross-examine the Commonwealth of Virginia's most important witness against his client. (This was a high-profile case, and the media reports made it appear that his client had no chance to win.) The witness was a law enforcement officer.
Because I cross-examine people for a living and I study my craft, I know stellar work.
Mr. Jenkins's cross-examination was spectacular. He torpedoed the Commonwealth's case. He turned that witness into a witness for his client. Simply masterful.

I am beyond grateful to have had Mr. Robert Jenkins as my attorney! After being charged with a crime last April, I hired Mr. Jenkins to defend me, and he exceeded all expectations. Despite the prosecution's delays and unavailability, Mr. Jenkins persevered and successfully got my case completely dismissed! The relief I feel now that this is behind me is indescribable. Mr. Jenkins' expertise, dedication, and commitment to his clients are truly exceptional. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking top-notch legal representation. Thank you again, Mr. Jenkins!

Farheena was able to knock down my rather high reckless driving speeding case into a regular speeding charge. She was poised and confident throughout my experiences with her over the phone and in the court house.

Fred and his team are seasoned professionals. I had multiple issues with a vindictive woman and we were awarded the divorce (even though the Ex bought suit), We won a Custody Battle when the Ex wanted to pull my children out of state, and the Team just got my Ex to sign a $40,000 2 party IRS check that she refused to sign for 6 months. I can't say enough good things about this team. This is the place to go to find an honest, consciences, and humble Legal Team!!

Divorce is not a pleasant process, but with Fred's representation I knew I had a solid advocate who would be compassionate toward me but would also provide blunt, pragmatic advice when I needed it. He helped me through the process, and along the way demonstrated that his long experience has provided him with insights into how the "other side" will behave that I would not have received from a lesser attorney. Fred's knowledge of military processes and how the law applied to military couples was invaluable in my case as well.

After my ex-wife and I separated, I contacted Fred upon a referral from a relative. Being separated from my wife and facing a potential divorce was a most trying and emotional time for me. I had no real idea of what was involved in a divorce proceeding. Fred was very understanding and empathetic to my situation, provided me with sound advice, and helped me proceed one step at a time, recognizing that reconciliation with my wife was still a hope for me. When it was apparent that a divorce was going to be the outcome, Fred guided me through each step of the process. During the six months that I was separated from my wife, Fred provided me with wise counsel, fully explaining available options, in response to developing situations/difficult interactions with my wife that ensued. In following Fred's expert legal advice as we collaborated on the "Separation and Property Settlement Agreement", I was able to minimize the financial impact of the divorce proceeding. I highly recommend Fred if you find yourself in a situation where you are facing a potential divorce and need the legal services of someone you can trust and have full confidence in their expertise and legal advice. Fred and his team are consummate professionals.

Joe represented us in a bogus shoplifting arrest. He was always able to be reached, was very accessible. He knew exactly how the process worked, recommended the best course of action to take, and was very well-respected by the prosecuting attorney. Joe made this difficult process much less painful to my wife and I. I would highly recommend hiring Joe should you have the need for a strong defense attorney in the City of Alexandria, VA.

Joseph King was court appointed to represent my son on a drug related charge. Throughout the entire case, Mr. King kept both me and my son apprised of each step of the process. He was able to secure my son's trust in authority and gain insight into what brought my son to this stage in his life. There were several occasions when Mr. King took time out of his busy schedule to sit down with my son and really listen and get to know him personally. I felt as though he served more as a mentor than as a lawyer. My son spoke very highly of Mr. King every time they met to discuss the case. My son listened to his suggestions and put them into action. I truly believe that children, no matter the age, crave positive attention and react accordingly. I believe that Mr King had a major impact on my son's attitude toward his future. In the time spent throughout this case, I noticed a difference in my son's feeling of self worth. I attribute that to Mr King's attention given to him. My son has met other people who are represented by Mr King and each and every one of them has high praise for his counsel. Let me point out again that he was not getting paid by me or my son for his representation, and yet he did more for my son than any lawyer has done in the past. He is a genuine, caring, knowledgeable and extremely kind individual and I would recommend him highly.

What a Criminal Defense Lawyer Can Do for You
A criminal defense lawyer provides legal representation to individuals or organizations accused of criminal conduct. If you're facing criminal charges, a defense lawyer will work to protect your rights, build a defense strategy, and ensure you receive a fair trial. Their primary goal is to reduce or dismiss charges, secure an acquittal, or negotiate a favorable plea deal.
Criminal defense lawyers have extensive knowledge of criminal law and court procedures. They investigate your case, identify weaknesses in the prosecution's evidence, and represent you in court, ensuring that you have the best possible defense.
When Should I Hire a Criminal Defense Lawyer?
It’s crucial to hire a criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible if you are facing any criminal charges. Some situations in which you should seek legal representation include:
- Arrest or police questioning: If you've been arrested or are under investigation, hiring a lawyer early on can prevent self-incrimination and protect your rights during police questioning.
- Felony charges: Crimes such as murder, assault, drug trafficking, or robbery carry severe penalties, including long prison sentences. A defense lawyer is essential in these cases.
- Misdemeanor charges: Even for less serious offenses like DUI, theft, or simple assault, a lawyer can help reduce penalties, negotiate alternatives to jail, or get charges dismissed.
- Plea negotiations: If you’re considering a plea bargain, a lawyer can evaluate the deal, advise you on its consequences, and negotiate for more favorable terms.
- Probation or parole violations: If you’ve been accused of violating probation or parole, a lawyer can defend you against additional penalties or revocation.
- Juvenile offenses: For minors charged with criminal acts, a criminal defense lawyer can protect their future by minimizing legal repercussions or keeping the case in juvenile court.
What Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Do?
Criminal defense lawyers provide comprehensive legal services to protect their clients’ rights throughout the criminal justice process. Their duties include:
- Case evaluation and investigation: Reviewing the evidence, interviewing witnesses, and investigating the facts to develop a strong defense strategy.
- Legal advice: Advising you on your rights, the charges you’re facing, and potential defense strategies, including whether to take a plea deal or go to trial.
- Negotiating plea bargains: Working with prosecutors to negotiate a plea deal that could reduce charges or minimize penalties.
- Court representation: Representing you in all court hearings, including bail hearings, pretrial motions, trials, and sentencing hearings.
- Filing motions: Filing motions to dismiss charges, suppress evidence, or reduce bail, depending on the specifics of your case.
- Trial preparation and defense: Preparing a defense strategy and presenting arguments, evidence, and witnesses during trial to contest the prosecution's case.
- Appeals: If you are convicted, a defense lawyer can appeal the conviction or sentence, arguing errors in the trial process or legal rulings.
How Are Criminal Defense Lawyers Paid?
Criminal defense lawyers generally charge clients in one of three ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Payment structures include:
- Flat fee: For straightforward cases (e.g., minor misdemeanors), some lawyers charge a one-time flat fee that covers all aspects of the defense.
- Hourly rate: For more complex or ongoing cases, lawyers may charge by the hour, with rates varying based on the lawyer’s experience and geographic location.
- Retainer fee: In cases where extensive work is expected, the client may pay a retainer fee upfront. The lawyer then bills against that retainer for their work on the case.
The cost of criminal defense services can vary greatly, so it’s important to discuss fees during your initial consultation.
How Much Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a criminal defense lawyer depends on several factors, including the severity of the charges, the complexity of the case, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost guidelines are:
- Misdemeanor cases: For relatively minor offenses, such as a DUI or petty theft, a flat fee may range from $1,500 to $5,000.
- Felony cases: More serious charges, such as assault or drug trafficking, can range from $10,000 to $100,000 or more, depending on the complexity and duration of the case.
- Hourly rates: For cases billed by the hour, lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on their expertise and the case's location.
- Additional expenses: You may also be responsible for other costs, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, or the cost of private investigators.
Be sure to clarify the lawyer’s fee structure and any potential additional costs during your consultation.
Top Questions to Ask a Criminal Defense Lawyer
Before hiring a criminal defense lawyer, you’ll want to ensure that they’re a good fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask:
-
What is your experience with cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has a strong track record with the specific type of criminal charges you’re facing, whether it’s DUI, drug offenses, or violent crimes. -
What is your fee structure?
Ask how the lawyer charges for their services and whether you’ll be responsible for any additional costs. -
What are the potential outcomes of my case?
A good lawyer should provide an honest assessment of your case and the likelihood of dismissal, a plea bargain, or conviction. -
How many cases have you taken to trial?
While many criminal cases settle with a plea deal, it’s important to hire a lawyer with courtroom experience in case your case goes to trial. -
Who will handle my case?
Ask if the lawyer will be personally involved or if other attorneys in the firm will handle most of the work. -
How do you communicate with your clients?
Be clear on how often and through what channels you can expect updates on your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Criminal Defense Lawyer
To verify the credibility of a criminal defense lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check their standing with the state bar: Confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any past disciplinary actions or complaints.
- Read online reviews and testimonials: Platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google can provide insights from previous clients about the lawyer’s communication, professionalism, and case outcomes.
- Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should have past clients or other professionals who can speak to their competence and work ethic.
- Review their case history: Look at the lawyer’s website or professional profile to see their experience with criminal cases, including high-profile or complex cases.
- Look for trial experience: If your case might go to trial, make sure the lawyer has a strong history of courtroom advocacy and success.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most of your first consultation with a criminal defense lawyer, bring the following:
- Details of your case: Be prepared to provide a detailed account of the charges against you, including any documents related to your arrest, police reports, and court dates.
- Criminal history: If you have any prior criminal convictions, inform your lawyer so they can understand how that may affect your current case.
- List of witnesses or evidence: If there are any potential witnesses or evidence that may support your defense, share this information during the consultation.
- Questions for the lawyer: Prepare questions about their experience, legal strategy, and fees to ensure you understand how they will handle your case.
- Bail or release documents: If you’ve been released on bail, bring any paperwork related to your release conditions or restrictions.
By being well-prepared, you can help your lawyer quickly assess your situation and begin building an effective defense strategy.
