I am a landlord and owner of a residential property in Alexandria. I was seeking to evict one of my tenants who was way behind on his rent. I thought I could handle the eviction process myself without hiring a lawyer...seemed like a straightforward process and an open and shut case. However, due to a legal technicality, I lost the case at trial. I hired Steven to represent me at my appeal and I won a judgment that I otherwise would not have received. I should have hired Steven from the beginning! Worth the time, money and peace of mind. Don't try and handle eviction by yourself!

Quick to respond to my inquires involving my child custody case. He was great. Thanks

Steven was great to work with! I interviewed at least 5 other lawyers prior to speaking with Steven. I was looking for a lawyer to help me write a client contract for my new small business and Steven did such a great job. He never once made me feel rushed or that he didn't have time to answer all of my questions. Steven also patiently explained everything to me in layman terms and offered many great suggestions on how to make both the contract and parts of my business plan better! He was so easy to work with - returned everything back to me very quickly! I simply can't recommend Steven enough - if you need a lawyer that is easy to work with, patient, and responsive, he's the one! I will definitely be using Steven Krueger Law again for my small business needs.

First Steven was very easy to get in touch with. By phone and email. He was very responsive to my needs and concerns in a timely fashion. Second he helped me gain a lot more time with my children. We did not need to go to court. His rates were reasonable.

Steven is the real deal. He is extremely knowledge and moved quickly to get us a judgement when we had a tenant that refused to pay rent. He also helped rectify an issue when our property manager dropped the ball during the eviction process. I can't recommend him enough!

For personal reasons I don’t like writing reviews. But I must write this about Mr. Steven Krieger, the attorney who – in my case – turned the hunter into the hunted. He is a confident, gentlemanly, calm and collected, professional. Say he is a five-star counsel. Since the time that I talked with him on phone about my cases – divorce and more – he has been constant with advice and eventual representation in court. He had a difficult opposing attorney and client negotiate rather than face him before a judge! If you have a spouse who throws their weight around to make you feel small and irrelevant, Mr. Steven Krieger is your attorney. If you have a spouse who threatens you with a myriad of court cases just to frustrate you, Mr. Steven Krieger is your attorney. If your spouse has a tendency of coming up with wild, fictional claims that sound real and bad enough to embarrass you, Mr. Steven Krieger is your attorney. He will stop them in their tracks! At least he did in my case. With his respectable demeanor and the mien that speaks volumes about his knowledge of matters law, he helped me carry the day. I don’t k now about you, but as long as this counsel is practicing, I will never gamble with my representation in court. MD

Just needed a quick call to review a tenant-landlord/roommate issue. He was knowledgeable, clear, and cheerful about helping me understand the issues and giving me next steps to take to ensure I was covered. Highly, highly recommend him.

Steven to the rescue. My tenant stopped paying me rent for 3 months and I needed to act. I found state laws in Virginia (or administrative/legal processes) did not make this an easy task. I needed professional legal representation and Steven provided the help I needed promptly. He was upfront about the process and the fees. I won judgement from a tenant who knew how to game the system. I highly recommend Steven Krieger!

#TLDR - Good experience, don't want to have to hire a lawyer again, but if I do I'm hiring Steven. I first contacted Mr. Krieger for advice and he gave a free consultation, which I acted on based on MY misunderstanding of the law. Doing what I should have done in the first place, I hired Mr. Krieger. He explored various means of presenting my case (eviction of guests who thought they were tenants) and we chose the best, if not optimal solution. My preferred solution was an immediate defenestration of the ruffians and Mr. Krieger offered a better than even chance that we would prevail. Nearing the end of my tether I wanted zero chance of losing the argument, I wanted a hard and fast date by which I could bid these ne'er-do-wells goodbye. Mr. Krieger, after negotiations with the defendents, secured a legally binding promise to vacate my premises by a not-too-distant date. They have no recourse or excuse thereafter, to remain on my property, under force of law. I'm not one for instant gratification, no matter the circumstances. This is a satisfactory and satisfying resolution to a five month long problem. Satisfying particularly in that I know the defendants have no place to live in less than three weeks, just like they had no place to live before I took them in over two years ago. Thanks Steven.

My tenants were not paying their rent and were refusing to vacate my property. The management company to which I entrusted my property while I was overseas kept charging a monthly fee but did not collect the rent. Seven months in with no rent money and an exploitative management company, it was beyond time to find a lawyer! I found Mr. Steven Krieger’s blog post regarding the eviction process in Virginia. I was impressed by the level of detail he provided and the clear, concise way he presented information on the topic (he was certainly far more thorough than the county website). He also freely answered people’s questions on the post itself, something I hadn’t seen other lawyers do on their websites. After reading the reviews on his service, I decided to contact Mr. Krieger to resolve the problems with my tenants and evict them. He was the best thing happened to me in this ordeal. Any dread I had about the situation was eased from the very first call. Mr. Krieger answered my emails immediately, even the ones I sent very late in the day, and he remained extremely punctual throughout the legal process. He answered all my questions, provided calm and sharp insight, gave excellent advice, and always kept my interests in mind. Mr. Krieger’s assistant, Ms. Assya Thode, also kindly provided prompt help. They both were very compassionate and sensitive to my situation. During the five months he worked on my case, Mr. Krieger offered goal-oriented guidance. Our court procedures took a longer time than I expected because the tenants appealed the case. In court, while the tenant’s lawyer resorted to crude assumptions to discredit my case, Mr. Krieger remained confident and composed. Ultimately, the tenants paid all of the unpaid rent, late fees, attorney’s fees, and had to vacate our home. In the process, I learned not to waste time before going to court in case of any problem with tenants. I also learned that an excellent lawyer like Mr. Krieger is indispensable. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Steven Krieger. Thank you Steven for a stellar job!

Extremely professional service. Canceled my prepaid legal and only dealing with Steve. Very sound, dependable and reasonable advice.

About a year and a half ago, I was dealing with a complicated situation. I had consulted several other attorneys and they all gave me the same wrong information. It came down to Mr. Krieger actually listening to all the details, and he was able to advise me appropriately. He was very attentive, and he was able to get the issue resolved in a very reasonable time frame. So, I used him again when it came time to pursue custody and support of my children. It was a great experience working with him both times, and I would definitely use him again. He is an attorney that will truly look out for your best interest.
