The headline is that Sarah Buskirk is the best lawyer I've ever encountered, working for a justly praised law firm. But the specifics mean everything. She was a calming presence on the phone, she answered with concise and informative responses via email, she looked into my eyes while explaining every step of the process, and then as if by magic, got my charges reduced to nearly nothing. But it isn't magic, it's skill and justified confidence. It's knowing who to tell and what to tell them, it's by being the best and caring what happens to her clients. The months I spent worrying, the hour and a half I spent waiting in the courtroom, all of the stress of it vanished because she knew what she was doing. Cannot recommend more highly.

I reached out to Abrieno Law after my friend suffered a serious injury from a fallen tree at a state park. Even though I wasn’t a paying client, they were incredibly generous with their time and knowledge, offering valuable information over the phone. They went above and beyond, and offered to visit my friend in the hospital to discuss the matter personally. The customer service was outstanding, and I wholeheartedly recommend contacting them if you ever find yourself facing a legal issue.

The Yoon Law Firm assisted me a few years ago. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the phenomenal customer service experience that they have provided me. All the staff were extremely caring, kind, and passionate. Based off of my experience, I feel that they care about each and everyone of their clients that they work with. I was extremely satisfied with the results and outcome and thanks again for their tireless efforts and compassion to ensure that I was taken care of. It is not easy to find people who are genuine and caring, but I am so blessed that I had the opportunity to have this law firm assist me. I would truly from the bottom of my heart recommend this law firm to anyone who needs any assistance based on their specialties.

The war on drugs is failing, and Jon Katz is one of its strongest adversaries. Jon had saved me once before, in a DUI that resulted in two possession charges (both of which were dismissed). During the end of my VASAP probation, I (in my opinion) was targeted by law enforcement in a traffic stop (where I was not the driver) that resulted in a public intoxication arrest with two possession charges, one a felony.
Within a half hour of leaving Fairfax County Adult Detention Center, I had already notified Jon’s assistant that I needed a consultation with Jon. Just shy of a couple days later, I was in his office near the courthouse. When I described my predicament, Jon told me of how his teachers in grade school used to get annoyed of him. One told him he’d be a great defense lawyer. “Dismiss, dismiss, dismiss” he said. He assured me these charges, which resulted in a probation violation, would be dismissed.
Fast forward to February of 2025, I had completed Jon’s recommended “homework plan” and I was primed for court. The day of the pre-trial hearing, I walked into the courthouse feeling, as though the case was already over, that I had enlisted the help of the best legal defense I could possibly get, and the outcome was evident.
All three charges were dismissed, and I am no longer on probation. The euphoria of freedom, I feel days after court. And it is all thanks to the experience, connections, and expertise of Jon Katz.
In the hour before court, I walked around the courthouse, feeling as if I wasn’t there as a criminal, but rather a member of society. For anyone reading this that may be in a legal situation, by fault or not, guilty or innocent, you have a place and purpose in life. Hiring Jon Katz is an important first step in reclaiming your dreams and ambitions for the future and life at large. Keep your head up, stay silent, and call Jon Katz!

Dear Mr. Katz,
You have been a true lifesaver, and I cannot thank you enough for your dedication and legal expertise. Your hard work and persistence gave me hope and fair chance, and I will always to be grateful for everything you have done.
Mr. Katz goes beyond to beat the prosecution and very professional. I was so stressed out and worried to death on my case, but Mr. Katz made everything smooth, and outcome was great. My first DUI charge was dropped to Reckless driving and no jail time. If you are in need of DUI or reckless driving attorney, I highly recommend hiring Mr. Katz to resolve your case.
Thank you, Sir!

I'm glad I found Jon and got to meet with him to discuss a legal problem. After carefully listening to my con concerns, he immediately looked up the pertinent legal codes and offered some well reasoned advice. Talking with Jon was quite helpful and like so many others, he certainly has my endorsement.

If you are ever faced with being the recipient of a friend, family member, colleague or a client's one and only phone call from jail, and they are imploring you to obtain the BEST criminal defense attorney to represent them. Don't panic, do what I did, call Mr. Mark J. Petrovich. A lawyer's lawyer! AMAZING ATTORNEY! Highly respected by both his peers and judges alike. With decades of experience he has the legal expertise to handle the most challenging situations. Hard working, conscientious, detail-oriented, well prepared, direct, no-nonsense, thinks on his feet, confident, honest, empathetic, compassionate, understanding, are all attributes I experienced working with him. He took the time and had the patience to answer the multitude of hard hitting questions I asked and assured me that he would do his very best, which he did, in record time! If I were ever in need of legal counsel, for myself, there would be no one that I would trust more. He helped me, to help someone, who had entrusted their life to me and he did not let us down! Kathy Reiter, M.S.W. Director of the Northern Virginia Pet Loss Support Center.

Mr. Kensky represented my mother in her case this past month and working with Mr. Kensky was relieving. Mr. Kensky was sympathetic and honest to our situation. He made sure to be attentive to all details when speaking to him about the case. We reached out to his office for a consultation and were able to get an appointment the next day. From the first meeting, Mr. Kensky was knowledgeable and honest when providing his opinion. My mother and I were really stressed regarding the court date and the false accusations made. From the first consultation until the court date, we had 5 meetings with Mr. Kensky in a short amount of time. Those meetings were very efficient and focused on what we needed to prepare for the court date. The meetings were long hours to be able to get through everything we needed to cover before the court date. Mr. Kensky helped us get through it and set us up to be in the best position possible for the court date. He explained his plan and thoughts in regards to everything presented to him, which helped my mother and I feel reassured as we prepared. We could not push the court date further so it was a busy couple of weeks leading up to the court date, but Mr. Kensky delivered.
English is not my mother’s first language. Therefore, it requires patience and understanding during preparation to make sure everything is articulated and nothing is left out when going over evidence and preparing for the court date when going back and forth between English and Spanish. He took notes, made sure he went over facts and evidence multiple times, and thought out all possible outcomes for everything discussed. Through all this, he didn’t waiver and was not impatient when I was transitioning between English and Spanish. This made my mom feel extremely comfortable and helped relieve a little of the stress from situation we were facing.
By the final meeting, we had gone through everything we had in regard to evidence and had discussed all possible outcomes. The anxiety of the court date the next day was a lot, but that meeting really was the last stretch before the court date. Mr. Kensky went through topics again that we needed to cover and was reassuring that we had the truth on our side. He also confirmed multiple times to make sure there was an interpreter requested for the court date.
The actual court date was a very long day, unexpectedly. My mother and I were nervous but Mr. Kensky had our case dismissed thankfully. During the court hearing, my mother was nervous based on the topics heard but Mr. Kensky was reassuring and encouraging that we were in a great position for our case. My mother did not have to speak once thankfully and he got our case dismissed without needed her and I to speak. After the case was dismissed, Mr. Kensky spoke to the other party to attempt to come to a resolution in regard to the situation. It showed that he his goal was to dismiss the case, but also attempt to offer a solution between us (my mother and I) and the other party.
I am extremely grateful to have met and have had Mr. Kensky represent us. It’s difficult to have someone dig through all the information we provided and make sense of it for presentation during court. Mr. Kensky handled that extremely well and represented us in court with the same effort. He really is a great attorney to have on your side with his expertise and grace in managing the case during what was a difficult time for my mother and I.

I highly recommend Mr. Kensky as an attorney based on the experience I had with him recently for a case he represented me on. He worked long hours and many meetings with me to go over evidence, details, and information related to my case. He also demonstrated patience with me as English is not my first language.
I was able to feel very comfortable with him and see that he was putting his best effort to help defend me in my case. He was able to get case dismissed thankfully. There were many hours of stress when going through all the information and evidence, but his confidence when processing the information and our discussion helped reassure me during those meetings. Throughout my case, Mr. Kensky and Alana were very quick to respond to any question I had. I would either call the office or email Alana, and I would receive a response very quickly. I was grateful for the quick turnaround and responses during this time.
The day of the court date, I was nervous based on the accusations heard but Mr. Kensky defended me with confidence and reassured me that the hearing was going well. He defended me with all the information I provided and I did not have to speak during the hearing. I was grateful when the case was dismissed thanks to Mr. Kensky defending me during my hearing with the truth.

I had the pleasure of working with Arthur after receiving a traffic ticket that could have negatively impacted both my driving record. From the very first consultation, Arthur was professional, approachable, and incredibly knowledgeable about traffic law. They took the time to explain the entire legal process, the potential outcomes, and the best strategy to handle my case.
What really stood out was their commitment to my case. Arthur handled everything from start to finish, negotiating with the prosecutor and getting my ticket reduced to a non-moving violation. The entire process was seamless, and I never had to appear in court myself.
Not only did I avoid points on my license, but I also saved on insurance premiums, thanks to their expertise. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience – efficient, effective, and stress-free.
If you’re facing a traffic ticket, I highly recommend Arthur.They know the law inside and out and will go the extra mile to ensure the best possible outcome for you.

Jon is the go-to expert for post-conviction matters in Virginia. He is exceedingly skilled, has more experience with post-conviction matters than any of his peers, and his work is as thorough as it gets. With post-conviction claims, you need a lawyer who knows exactly what to look for, searches for it with a fine-toothed comb, then has the legal acumen to turn what he found into a compelling argument for justice. That's exactly how Jon approaches every case. Highly recommended.

I just finished a lengthy divorce process with Livesay & Myers. Ms. Haight and Ms. Spurgeon are a phenomenal team! I used this firm in particular as I needed someone who understood military divorces/laws and they certainly have that experience!
They are honest, professional and I am very pleased with the services I received. I would absolutely use them again in the future if needed.

Mariah and Rossimar helped me through my contempt and custody matters. They are both amazing and I absolutely recommend them. They made sure to explain everything to me in detail and what options were available, all while respecting the time (money) it took to respond to all my many questions. Over the years I met with a few different attorneys for this matter, but did not feel comfortable with any of them until I met with Mariah for my consultation with Livesay & Myers. I’m so glad I decided to go through with the legal proceedings and am very happy with the representation that I had. Very personable, knowledgeable, and worthwhile.

When I say Mr. Simms is a phenomenal attorney, I mean that in every sense of the word, phenomenal. He is truly dedicated to his work, and he stops at nothing to obtain the best possibly outcome. I was charged with a petit larceny charge that could have ruined my entire life and that of my family as well as my career. Mr. Simms made a 4 hour trip to represent me, and was able to get me a dismissal! If you want a knowledgeable, kind, hardworking attorney, and an attorney that strives to get a dismissal or not guilty verdict, then Mr. Simms is the attorney you need. He won’t disappoint! Thank you Mr. Simms for not only representing me, but for making the drive to represent me, and for not settling for anything less than a dismissal, and that’s exactly what you got for me. I will be eternally grateful for your devotion to my case, and for getting me the verdict of dismissal. I owe you my life for what you did. Thank you sir for representing me! You’re simply phenomenal in every sense of the word, and your kindness will never be forgotten!

I was obviously worried about everything. Kelly told me 2 times "I am pretty good at sentencing."
Well, when she was able to get a CAP on my sentencing, I was relived.
Honest, straight forward and easy to understand.
Highly recommended.

I'm sorry to say that, even though I was married in the Catholic Church, my wife divorced me in March of this year, 2019. It was traumatic of course but Sharon Lieblich not only did a great job as a lawyer, but as a human being. I truly grew to love her. She was recommended by my family's lawyer in NYC, and though she was more expensive than other lawyers in Virginia, she probably saved me half a million bucks. You can't beat Harvard lawyers!

I received a traffic citation for "Fail pay full time & attention." She explained probation before judgement was not available for me and if other attorneys promise things I will most likely be dissappointed. I thanked Ms. Sprissler for being straightforward. In addition, I tried to contact three other attorneys who never responded.

I cannot thank Mr. Hicks enough for the incredible support and expertise he provided during the most difficult time of my life. I was facing a false sexual assault accusation that left me feeling trapped with no way out. I was at risk of deportation and losing my job, and the stress was unbearable for months. At one point, I even felt hopeless and suicidal.
Mr. Hicks not only brought his extensive knowledge and skill to my case, but he also treated me like family. He truly cared about my well-being, and his unwavering support gave me the strength to keep going. Through his hard work and dedication, he was able to get my case dismissed and turn my life around.
If you are looking for a lawyer who will fight for you with compassion and unmatched expertise, I highly recommend Mr. Hicks. He is a lifesaver, and I will forever be grateful for everything he has done for me.

The attorneys and staff of The Law Offices of Patrick N. Anderson and Associates are very professional and exceptional to work with. I worked specifically with Mr. Mejia, and I highly recommend him.
For those of you unfamiliar with the legal system, and/or reading google reviews in search of a good attorney, perhaps the most critical thing you should know is that a good attorney is not solely defined by his/her knowledge of the law. In the legal system, there are various intricacies in the courts that may play a larger role than you realize in determining an outcome. If you want the best possible outcome, you need an attorney with firsthand experience in that realm, who can help you navigate these nuances.

I originally booked a consultation last year with Pervaiz to discuss my options since I was going through divorce. I didn't have enough info for her during my 1 hour consultation so she cut my session short. So I ended up having a credit for 150$ from the 300$ hour consultation.
After I finalized my divorce amicably with my ex, I decided to reach out to schedule a consultation to write a Will. No Money was collected for this appointment, I just reminded them I had the credit still in my account and they confirmed. I called and emailed the day of my appointment to let them know I had a 103 fever and that I was very sick and I am not able to discuss anything related to a "Will". I mean how could you? With a high fever!! This is a serious topic and you need you full brain capacity to do so!!
Pervaiz refused to reschedule my appointment and they told me if I do not call at my appointment time that they will not allow me to reschedule.
I was diagnosed with the flu and pneumonia and they can clearly tell I am not making my sickness up from the way I was coughing. I offered to send a doctor's note however she just decided to take the credit I have left with them instead of being empathetic with my situation! This clearly shows you that she doesn't care about people! And she just knew I had a credit and took it!
Sickness happens and this unpredictable. I will not recommend her to anyone especially after what happened to me!

Mr. Bronley’s team is top-notch, and we have nothing but praise for their work!
I hired Bronley Law to protect my father’s interests in a Virginia trust. After shortlisting three litigators in Fairfax, VA, Jonathan was the first lawyer we met. Immediately after our initial meeting, I knew he was the right person for the job. His team quickly obtained crucial information that we had been looking for for nearly a year. Later in the case, Alexis joined the team and did an excellent job, particularly with drafting legal documents and supporting Jonathan.
Jonathan’s team is highly capable, honest, and responsive. They provided clear guidance on our standing and the best course of action, regardless of the strength of our case, always acting in our best interest. As clients from a different country, we especially appreciated Jonathan’s flexibility in accommodating virtual meetings—we worked together for over a year without meeting in person! Billing was seamless, with payment methods that were convenient and worked well for us as international clients.

Jonathan handled a very unique situation for me that was passed over by two other firms. Jonathan was an absolute professional in his field and handled my case to an exceptional outcome. I will continue to recommend Jonathan to anyone needing litigation in the areas of Trusts and Estates. When the chips are down, Jonathan is the lawyer you hope would be on your side.

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.
