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.

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!

Before coming to your law firm, I was facing charges for a DUI and reckless driving, which put my future and driving privileges at risk. I chose your firm because I had heard great reviews from other credible lawyers, which gave me confidence in your ability to handle my case. From the start, the process was smooth and easy—Ann clearly outlined everything I needed to do and consistently checked in to ensure I stayed on track. Thanks to your representation, my DUI was dropped, and I now only have a few months of license suspension instead of more severe penalties. This experience has significantly impacted my life—after completing my community service, the organization offered me a job, which I accepted. More importantly, I now have a completely different perspective on driving and responsibility, making me much more cautious and aware on the road.

Ann helped me win a restraining order against someone who attacked me, and also defended me against a counter restraining order filed by my attacker that was based on a made up story. Her pricing was very straightforward and her deep knowledge of the Fairfax Circuit Court judges, policies and procedures was a huge asset. Ann was very responsive to questions, very honest and didn’t sugarcoat things, she was reassuring in a very anxious and high stress time. I feel a lot safer having a restraining order and not being harassed anymore, and if I ever need a lawyer again I’m going to Ann first!

I was in court today with Mr. Hasan, and he represented me in my motion for visitation modification and a rule to show cause for failure to pay child support-and we won! I have known Mr. Hasan since 2019, and he has represented me several times over the years for child support, divorce, and custody agreements. Every time, with Mr. Hasan by my side, I have attained the results I desired. Mr. Hasan is not only extremely competent and prepared but also very aggressive in the representation of his clients in court. His sharpness in legal matters, work ethic, and determination are incomparable. Apart from his professionalism, Mr. Hasan is kind, considerate, and treats you like family. He truly takes the time to understand your situation and fights passionately to ensure justice is served. If you are seeking a lawyer who will go above and beyond for you, I cannot recommend Mr. Hasan highly enough. He has been an absolute great advocate for me, for which I am very grateful.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the outstanding work Manuel Leiva did in defending me in a protective order case that was unjustly filed by my wife. From the very first consultation, Manuel demonstrated exceptional professionalism, deep expertise, and genuine care for my situation. He took the time to thoroughly understand the details of my case, leaving no stone unturned in building a robust defense. Throughout the process, Manuel was a true advocate for my rights. He communicated with clarity and confidence, ensuring I was fully informed and prepared at every stage. His ability to navigate the complexities of the law was evident in the courtroom, where his sharp legal skills and compelling arguments led to a complete dismissal of the case. Thanks to Manuel’s dedication and tireless efforts, I am now able to move forward with my life. He brought not only legal expertise but also compassion and understanding during a very challenging time. I wholeheartedly recommend Manuel Leiva to anyone in need of a highly skilled and trustworthy attorney. He is, without a doubt, the best advocate you could have in your corner.

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!

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.

Edward handled my reckless driving case and becuase of his knowledge of the Fairfax Court System he was able to get my ticket reduced out of the reckless category. He was always responsive to me and gave me homework to be prepared for my case. Without his good guidance, I feel I would have been convicted. He is a wonderful attorney as well as being a really good person. Just a class act. You can not go wrong hiring Edward for your case. You will be glad that you did hire him.

I have known Ed Cuccias for over 15 years; he is a great lawyer and good friend. I have had to call on him for his legal services and expertise on two occasions to assist my son after he was stopped and cited for Reckless Driving (Speed in excess of 25 mph over the posted speed limit). Ed met with us and explained the seriousness of the offense and possible consequences (6 Points off his license, misdemeanor conviction and possible jail time). While a parents’ threats of the consequences for poor driving habits sometimes go unheeded, Ed’s explanation of the seriousness of these charges put the fear of God into my son. His knowledge of the Virginia State and county traffic court system, Police, Sheriffs, Highway Patrol and prosecutors makes him the attorney to call if you have any legal issue associated with driving violations in Virginia. In one case the charges were not prosecuted and in the other they were reduced significantly. (Why 2 offenses you might ask; same road, same time of day and my son late for work yet another time.)

I received a notice of photo enforcement of a speeding violation. Mr. Clapp was able to let me know that paying the ticket would have no further ramifications, and that contesting it would not be worth the time and effort. He took the time to put my mind at ease, which was a great comfort.

He was very helpful from the beginning to end. He was respectful, friendly, knowledgeable and charismatic. He knew his stuff and really proved it the day of trail. He is truly a life saver. He knew my position and fought for both my boyfriend and I to get justice the correct way! I am beyond grateful to him! If you're in trouble or feel like someone you love and know is wrongly accused I highly recommend him as a lawyer. Hes affordable and extremely intelligent. He speaks both Spanish and English so hes really worth. Thank you Mr. Clapp! 2/15/18 was the day you made things right for both my boyfriend, thank you so very much!!

Joe Flood is an exceptional criminal defense lawyer. I recently used his services to defend myself against a criminal drug charge, and I could not have been more pleased with the results. Initially, he spent three plus hours calling the jail to get in contact with me in the middle of the night. Joe was extremely knowledgeable and offered knowledgeable advice. He was very organized and kept me informed of every step of the process. He always answered my phone calls/texts and handled all the details of the case very professionally. Even though I was facing a serious charge, Joe provided a sense of comfort and security as he worked through the case. Joe is a great lawyer and I highly recommend him for any criminal defense needs. He is the best lawyer that I could have asked for and I’m extremely grateful for all his hard work.

From the moment I hired Mr Flood, I felt like our case was the only case he was working on. He religiously stayed in touch with me throughout the various stages of the case and kept me informed and educated on every aspect as we navigated through a very long and drawn out process. Everything Mr Flood told me he would do, he did! My best friend is a criminal attorney in NC and he helped me find Mr Flood. We had a lengthy list of potential attorneys and we interviewed many. After the first conversation with Mr Flood, I knew he was the right attorney for my brother’s case. Mr Flood is professional, compassionate and smart, but most importantly he is competent. I would highly recommend Mr Flood.

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!

Sharon is an extremely experienced attorney with an excellent background for over decades. Using an attorney is extremely expensive and I've been happy with the ways she's tried to help cut the bill without giving up any rights. I just wish my STBX's attorney had the same approach.

Hired Ms. Petrocelli to help me with a small matter that seems as if it could either turn out as a slap on the wrist or jail time and a fine for me-depending on how it's handled. So far, she has been very unprofessional. She will not return phone calls or emails regarding my case. All I would like is an update about what's going on for the next court date. I gave her my retainer and she has just disappeared on me with another court date to go! My advice is to find someone a bit more reliable.

What a Juvenile Law Lawyer Can Do for You

A juvenile law lawyer specializes in legal issues involving minors, including those facing criminal charges, child welfare matters, or status offenses (like truancy or curfew violations). Juvenile law lawyers aim to protect the rights of minors and advocate for rehabilitation rather than punishment in criminal cases. They also help families navigate child custody, abuse, neglect cases, and other legal matters involving children.

If your child is facing criminal charges, or you are involved in a child welfare case, a juvenile law lawyer can help protect your child’s rights and work toward the most favorable outcome.

When Should I Hire a Juvenile Law Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a juvenile law lawyer in the following situations where minors are involved in legal matters:

  • Juvenile criminal charges: If your child is accused of a crime, such as theft, assault, or drug offenses, a juvenile lawyer can represent them in juvenile court, advocating for leniency and alternatives to detention.
  • Delinquency proceedings: A lawyer can help navigate delinquency charges, defending your child’s rights and seeking rehabilitative outcomes like counseling, probation, or diversion programs instead of incarceration.
  • Status offenses: If your child has committed a status offense, such as truancy, running away, or underage drinking, a lawyer can help you resolve these issues in juvenile court, often focusing on rehabilitation rather than punishment.
  • School disciplinary issues: If your child is facing school suspensions, expulsions, or other disciplinary actions, a lawyer can help protect their educational rights and challenge any unfair or unlawful school policies.
  • Child protective services (CPS) investigations: If your family is being investigated by CPS for alleged abuse, neglect, or dependency, a lawyer can represent you and protect your child’s rights throughout the investigation.
  • Custody disputes: A lawyer can help in cases involving child custody or guardianship disputes, ensuring the child’s best interests are prioritized and advocating for the child’s rights.
  • Emancipation: If your child seeks legal emancipation from their parents or guardians, a lawyer can assist in navigating the legal process and help the child understand their rights and responsibilities.

Hiring a lawyer early in the legal process ensures that your child’s rights are protected and that the best possible outcomes are pursued.

What Does a Juvenile Law Lawyer Do?

A juvenile law lawyer provides various services to help minors and their families navigate the legal system. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Representing minors in court: A lawyer will represent your child in juvenile court, advocating for their rights and seeking rehabilitative outcomes rather than punitive measures.
  • Filing motions and legal paperwork: The lawyer handles all necessary legal filings, including petitions, responses, and motions to dismiss charges or suppress evidence.
  • Negotiating with prosecutors: In some cases, a lawyer can negotiate plea deals or diversion programs that prevent the child from having a permanent criminal record or serving time in detention.
  • Advising on rehabilitation programs: Juvenile law lawyers often focus on alternatives to incarceration, such as counseling, community service, or probation, helping minors avoid long-term legal consequences.
  • Handling CPS and child welfare cases: If your family is involved in a CPS investigation or child welfare case, the lawyer can advocate for your child’s safety and well-being, ensuring that their rights are upheld.
  • Defending minors against school discipline: A lawyer can help challenge unfair or excessive disciplinary actions taken by schools, ensuring that your child’s educational rights are protected.
  • Advising families on legal options: A lawyer will explain the juvenile legal process to families, offering advice on the best legal strategies and what to expect during the case.

How Are Juvenile Law Lawyers Paid?

Juvenile law lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the time involved. Common payment structures include:

  • Hourly rate: Many juvenile law lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
  • Flat fee: For simpler cases, such as status offenses or school disciplinary hearings, a lawyer may charge a flat fee that covers all legal services related to the case.
  • Retainer: In more complex cases, such as defending against serious criminal charges or handling a long-term CPS investigation, a lawyer may require a retainer, which is an upfront payment billed against as they work on the case.
  • Sliding scale or pro bono services: Some juvenile law lawyers offer sliding scale fees based on income or may provide pro bono (free) services for families who cannot afford to pay full legal fees, especially in cases involving child welfare or delinquency.

Discuss the lawyer’s fee structure during your consultation to understand the total cost and payment options.

How Much Does a Juvenile Law Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a juvenile law lawyer depends on the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the time involved. General cost estimates include:

  • Juvenile criminal cases: Legal fees for defending a minor in juvenile criminal cases can range from $2,000 to $10,000 or more, depending on the severity of the charges and whether the case goes to trial.
  • Status offenses: For cases involving minor offenses such as truancy or underage drinking, legal fees typically range from $1,500 to $5,000.
  • CPS or child welfare cases: Legal fees for representing families in CPS investigations or child welfare cases can range from $2,000 to $8,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the case.
  • School disciplinary hearings: Legal fees for representing students in school-related issues may range from $1,000 to $3,500, depending on the legal work required.

Make sure to get a clear estimate of costs during your initial consultation to ensure you understand the full scope of fees and services.

Top Questions to Ask a Juvenile Law Lawyer

Before hiring a juvenile law lawyer, it’s important to ask key questions to ensure they have the experience and expertise to handle your child’s case effectively. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with juvenile law cases?
    Make sure the lawyer has handled cases similar to yours, whether it’s juvenile delinquency, child custody, or CPS investigations.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, offers flat fees, or requires a retainer. Ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my child’s case?
    Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of the case, including potential challenges and likely outcomes.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Juvenile cases can vary in duration, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to last and what factors might affect the timeline.
  5. Will you personally handle my child’s case?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing the case and representing your child in court.
  6. What rights does my child have?
    Ask the lawyer to explain your child’s legal rights, including their rights during police questioning, school disciplinary actions, and court proceedings.

How to Check the Credibility of a Juvenile Law Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable juvenile law lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and experience:

  • Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice law and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Look for juvenile law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in juvenile law and have successfully handled cases similar to yours.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate in juvenile cases.
  • Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on juvenile law matters.
  • Check for certifications or memberships: Look for memberships in organizations like the National Juvenile Defender Center (NJDC) or certifications in juvenile law, which can indicate a lawyer’s dedication to representing minors.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a juvenile law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Court documents: Bring any legal documents related to your child’s case, such as summons, complaints, or court orders.
  • School records: Provide any relevant school records, including disciplinary reports, attendance records, and communications from school officials.
  • CPS or investigation reports: If your case involves child welfare, bring any reports or documentation from CPS or other investigating agencies.
  • Timeline of events: Prepare a detailed timeline of events related to your child’s legal issue, including interactions with authorities or school officials.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions about the legal process, your child’s rights, and potential outcomes for the case.

Being well-prepared will help the lawyer assess your child’s situation more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice tailored to your needs.
