I spent a lot of time searching for an attorney that has experience in handling expungements in VA. VA is one of the toughest states to grant expungements and to handle it by yourself is pure stupidity.
The next couple of days I spoke with many different attorneys via telephone and office consultation.
Office: I visited Mr. Vincenzes Law firm in Fairfax where I was greeted by his secretary staff and offered coffee until my appointment time.
Consultation: Mr. Vincenzes explained how the expungement process would work and what was needed from me. We agreed on a very reasonable price for 2 misdemeanor expungements.
Mr.Vincenzes and his partner Josh understood the urgency I was facing being a college graduate wanting to enter the Law Enforcement profession. I did not want this youthful mistake haunting my future.
Mr. Vincenzes and Joshua kept me informed and updated me with any news relating to my case.
Court: The prosecutor was hesitant to approve BOTH expungements. However, Mr. Vincenzes did not go down without a fight. He was able to explain to the judge every reason why it should be granted. Believe me, This is an attorney that is very skilled ( I trust him with my life). His Experience & knowledge in the courtroom and law is magnificent.
If I EVER needed any legal assistance in the future, I know who to go too. Give him a call and you won't be disappointed. Mr. Vincenzes and Josh are confident, caring, and trustworthy when it comes to handling your case.

Brent is always looking out for your best interest. He truly cares about his clients. I have used him three times and every time, he has achieved the best outcome possible. In my recent case, he set out to achieve 3 objectives and he did it! Both Brent and Sean are creative and are able to think outside of the box. They know many of the prosecutors, judges, and police officers in Fairfax County and that can only help! Brent is also very responsive and flexible. His assistant, Josh, is also very helpful. You will definitely get the A+++ team if you hire Vincenzes Law.

Hired for Two criminal charges and I was saved by Brent!!!!
Review for Brenton D. Vincenzes
When I was charged two, yes two i really thought my life was over. I had never been in trouble with the law and I was personally battling anxiety depression, and PTSD. The criminal charges were false alarm calls to Loudoun County EMT and deputies and the second was in Fairfax County for disorderly conduct. Fortunately, I went through AVVO and found Brent and his right hand man Sean ( a former prosecutor.) This is the BEST DECISION I MADE. TRUST ME. All got plead out and no jail time for me. I will always remember how thoughtful and considerate they were towards me and as caring. They took their time and really i can’t thank them enough. If you don’t hire Brent you are making a huge mistake. I was looking at a year in jail. I got no jail time. I am and will always be grateful to Brent and Sean. Professional, smart as hell confident. . I had no doubt he would do what he needed to do and HE DID!!

I had the pleasure of having Brent Vincenzes as my lawyer. He is amazing! I had him for a case in Fairfax. It was for a speeding ticket but I had to have it lowered or dropped because I had another ticket in Prince William coming up and that was one a little more serious. So with my driving record, I could not afford to lose that many demerit points.
Also being on my parents insurance, I could not have them find out about my three tickets in a duration of one month. I found Brent on Avvo. He had a 10/10 so I thought, "Okay let me have a consultation." He literally won me over during the phone conversation. He gained my trust and assured me. He is also very confident and seems to know the prosecutors well too. He did his research, talked to the prosecutor, and managed to get me failure to pay full time and attention. WHICH was amazing because it did not drop any points and I only had to pay 100+ court fees. This also did not hit the DMV records.
Brent is super charming and intellectual. I hope I do not have to get a lawyer again for anything, but I would trust this guy with my life. He is also super responsive via text/email/phone. He managed to assure me multiple times that it will go okay, and it went better than okay.
He also uses this online portal place you can pay, message him, or upload documents. SO AMAZING. 11/10 (Not even a 10) do recommend to all.

I had just turned 18, and I was with friends in a parking lot. I was being stupid, and unfortunately I was charged with possession of marijuana. At first I was not that worried, but as I did research I began to realize how serious this charge really was for my future. As an adult, convictions or deferred dispositions cannot be expunged in Virginia. If I had taken the 1st offenders program, my record would be permanently mutilated with a drug offense. I was worried sick, and I searched for an attorney. From the outset, I could tell that Brent was extremely knowledgable in these types of cases. In addition, I had consultations with other lawyers, but Brenton's calm nature and his obvious concern for my future is what ultimately led me to retain his services. I was not disappointed. His relationships with prosecutors, excellent negotiation skills, and his extensive knowledge of the law impressed me. Brent was able to demonstrate my otherwise good character to the prosecutor (community service, drug test, good grades), and thus I was given a second chance. In the end, as the officer who arrested me explained what was going to happen, he specifically mentioned how my attorney was "a really good guy," and I honestly cannot think of a better way to describe him. If you are facing any criminal charges in Northern Virginia, I highly recommend that you retain Vincenzes.

Brent did an incredible job on my possession of marijuana case! From my first phone conversation with him, I could tell he knew what he was talking about and had great ideas. This was my second charge, so it made it more difficult to get it dismissed. Brent suggested doing community service and taking a drug test before court and it was a huge benefit for my case. He also has great relationships with police officers and prosecutors which allows him to get better deals for his clients. Overall he was a true professional and let me contact him personally whenever I needed. I highly recommend for any criminal case.

I had Attorney Brent Vincenzes to represent me recently for my reckless driving case in Alexandria, VA. Even though I had a clean driving record, I was extremely worry a potential charge could have done serious damage to my career because the nature of the traffic violation. Attorney Vincenzes understood my situation and worked tirelessly to get me the best possible outcome and to prevent a reckless driving conviction from going on my record. The reckless driving charge got DISMISSED, and I just got a minor speeding violation with a relatively low fine!!! Throughout the process it was easy to see his knowledge and integrity. Additionally, he was courteous and very pleasant to talk and interact with. His service fee is very reasonably as well, which is an evidence he truly believes in what he does and is genuinely dedicated to getting his clients the best possible outcome. Most of all, he is very open-minded and down to earth person. I would recommend everybody to contact him if you need any legal advice or help. I guarantee that you won't be disappointed.
In Spanish:
El abogado Brent Vincenzes me represento recientemente en mi caso manejo imprudente (Reckless driving) en Alexandria, VA. A pesar de que tengo una historia de manejo limpio, estaba extremadamente preocupada que este tipo de infracción de trafico pudiera en el futuro afectar mi profesión ya que trabajo para el gobierno. El abogado Vincenzes entendió mi situación desde el principio e hizo todo lo posible para negociar los mejores resultados a mi favor. La infracción de manejo imprudente fue eliminada, y solo me dieron una infracción normal de velocidad que no afecta tu pasado judicial, y además con una multa muy baja. El abogado Vincenzes es muy profesional, amable y tiene mucho conocimientos en su área legal. Además, el cobra bastante económico para el buen servicio que ofrece. De verdad que lo recomiendo mucho.

Mr. Vincenzes (Brent) transformed a very stressful charge of Reckless Op into a seamlessly, stress-free legal experience from the moment I cordially shook his hand at our initial consultation.
Courteous, professional, personable, and diligent are a few words that can be used to paint a picture of his character. To be honest, there truly are no words capable of fully portraying his character.
I am a three time Veteran, and would suggest his legal expertise to anyone (especially my fellow Veterans) seeking a favorable outcome from a "real" person.
Thank you, Sir. It was a pleasure.

This was the first time I've needed a lawyer, and the day before my reckless driving hearing I still had not found one. After looking at reviews, I contacted Vincenzes Law for a consultation. They got back to me within a few hours explaining the process, fees, and sent the information for review right away. I had a few questions which Brent responded to very quickly and thoroughly. Brent was able to get my misdemeanor reckless driving charge reduced to a speeding infraction and a $100 fine. I definitely recommend him.

Brenton was an amazing lawyer. From the minute I read the reviews and contacted him, he has been nothing but helpful and reassuring. I was charged with Reckless driving and was scared I was going to loose everything from my job to my clean record. He told me what I needed to do to help my case, answered questions honestly and promptly and he dose not treat you like you're just money. He treats and deals with you with the upmost respect and as a person and he really understands everyones own unique case. He was able to get my charge dropped down to a non-criminal speeding infraction with only a 200 dollar fine. And what was with one of the toughest prosecutors! All I have to say is, if you are in some trouble contact Brent!!!

Mr. Vincenzes was an amazing lawyer and honestly a really cool guy. Helping me with two possession charges within 6 months of each other I stuck with him both times knowing he would do all in his power to get it thrown out or get me the best possible deal he could. For any people needing a good lawyer and reading this review, hire this guy.
