Mark Andrews worked aggressively in preparation and thoroughly applied his preparation in my legal defense. Hire Mark Andrews as your attorney with confidence.

Hands down best DWI attorney in Chesapeake. Case dismissed. I called Mr. Andrews after my first my first lawyer botched my case in General District Court. Both my previous attorney and Mr. Andrews have spectacular resumes, but the difference in performance in the courtroom was night and day. Mark was actively engaged in taking notes on the prosecution’s argument, he knew pretty much everything the prosecution was going to argue, and he effectively articulated my defense. I regret not calling him first. There isn’t a better lawyer. He and his assistant Jessica were very responsive. They were very helpful, the communication was clear, my expectations were exceeded. Even before the trial, I remember thinking how satisfied I was just from talking to him about the case and no matter the outcome, that I would be at peace with it just because I knew we weren’t going to leave anything on the table and that I was going to get the best representation I could hope for. His assistant Jessica set up a phone meeting with us a couple of days before the trial to go over the case. He reviewed body cam footage and the police report, talked to me to hear my side of things, and made a smart decision on how to approach the case in court. On the day of the trial, we had a few hours before the case was heard. Mark was able to calm my nerves, build my confidence, and explained how the trial was going to be conducted. During the trial, he had a rebuttal for just about everything the prosecutor argued. Armed with his knowledge of the law and previous court decisions he was able to convince the judge that there wasn’t sufficient evidence to warrant a conviction and the case was dismissed. Each case is different and the outcome is impossible to predict. With Mark Andrews, you will get the best representation possible and the best chance at a favorable outcome. He’s the attorney police officers will hire. You can research and interview other attorneys, but I guarantee you will not find anyone at his level of performance. Don’t spend your time or money on anyone else.

He saved my job and a lot more with his professionalism thanks again.

Words cannot express my gratitude towards Mr. Andrews and his Firm. Due to his brilliance and expertise, the charges were dismissed. My intention through this case was to get the best possible outcome. Mr. Andrews delivered in the most professional manner. Thank you to the Wolcott Rivers Gates Firm.

Mark is a outstanding lawyer...! He handle my tough case from start to finish, in the end my case was dismissed. He was open and honest about my situation. I highly recommend Mark, money well spent.

First time going to court. Mark Andrews made it flawless for me. Great experience.

I found Mark Andrews while tearfully fumbling around online in the wee hours of the morning after my son’s DUI. We had never experienced any trouble in our family and I was at a loss as to what to do. When the webpage and all reviews said Mark is the best DUI attorney in the area, I reached out and was contacted the next day. Mark proved to be all I was led to believe. He was calm (when I wasn’t), patient and so knowledeable. He is very well-known in the community and immediately put me in touch with people I needed to be in touch with, who were also awesome! Even with a heavy caseload he always answered our many calls, texts and questions quickly and never made us feel like a bother. He made our son feel comfortable and helped put his mind at ease, but also this mom’s stressed heart. We honestly could not have had the outcome we did without Mark’s assistance and we are so thankful to have found him! Thank you Mark, so much!

Mark Andrews and his staff responded promptly to calls and emails and were very professional. Mr. Andrews was not especially verbose, but he communicated efficiently, was very experienced and technically competent, and my case was ultimately dismissed under his counsel.

I’ve been hiring Mr. Andrews since 2013 to handle my traffic violations. I have two adult children who have hired him and have always felt comfortable and confident with him as their lawyer. I always recommend him to a friend or family member. If you’re looking for a lawyer with good experience and professional work, he’s a great lawyer to help you with your legal problems. Thank You!

Fortunately (and unfortunately) I have had the pleasure to work with Mark on two separate occasions, and both times he went above and beyond to get things done. Mark not only handled my cases, but made sure that the process afterwards went smoothly as well. Between issues with ASAP or even help finding a therapist, he does it all. I can without a doubt say that Mark is the best DUI attorney in Virginia, if not even further. If you want things done, he's your guy.
