10 years ago, Gretchen Taylor saved my life. I was facing a serious, felony drug charge that was based on nothing besides the text messages of a former friend and other hearsay. I was 19 at the time, uneducated and uninformed of my rights, and terrified at what was unfolding. I secured the services of an attorney who proved to be utterly useless, barely lifted a finger for my case, and encouraged me to cooperate with FCPD to ensnare some other equally young and dumb target into similar charges. Gretchen immediately realized that my previous attorney had never even filed a motion for discovery (so that he could see what evidence the state held against me), which baffled her. Adding to her surprise more was that there was quite literally nothing in the discovery file — the state had no physical evidence against me and used my ignorance of the system against me, hoping to coerce a confession from me and helping them with an investigation that was very far removed from my current lifestyle. After being in court with my old lawyer, over 3 times and having the case continued for almost 2 years, I was not expecting the outcome Gretchen Taylor was able to produce for me in our very first court date together. She asked for the case to be dismissed against me, due to the lack of evidence she found in her motion for discovery. The judge agreed, and a nolle plead was entered; the charges were essentially dropped. Gretchen is an honorable, ethical and kind woman who drastically altered the course of my life by simply doing her job. I would recommend her as an attorney, especially those who have cases in Fairfax County.

Pay the money! I researched and consulted with several lawyers. There were some who were literally were $3k less than her but I did not choose them because I did my homework. Gretchen even told me hey you might want to get a more specific lawyer but like I said before I did the research and she was meant for my case. I was falsely accused of family abuse with a permanent protective order. With my evidence and her knowledge of law, the judge, and courtroom the case was won in 30mins and I never had to speak. Pay the money!

Mr. Lindsay was very precise and very helpful and very patient with my anxiety due to my legal troubles the case was dropped.

Andrew Lindsay was amazing, he helped me out of a reckless driving and got it reduced to something non-criminal. Would highly recommend if you’re dealing with something similar

My son was charged with Reckless Driving-failure to mover over for a police vehicle. Mr. Lindsey was able to have the charge reduced to Improper Driving - even in my son's absence! We can't thank him enough!! Highly recommended! An amazing attorney!

I was charged with Malicious Wounding. Malicious Wounding is a serious felony in Virginia which carries years in prison, high fines, years of probation, and a permanent criminal record. I hired Mr. Lindsey and he knocked my charges down to Domestic Assault & Battery which is a Misdemeanor. He is very professional and I would highly recommend. He got me into a first offenders program and after 2 years of good behavior, my charges were dropped.

Mr. Lindsey was extremely competent and professional in the way he handled my traffic offense.

I came to Laila after leaving another law firm. I had spend a large amount of money and wasn’t a quarter of the way through my divorce. Laila listened to me and made her recommendations to fit my requests. She kept me informed and used my resources wisely. I definitely would recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable attorney.

I initially retained Attorney Raheen to represent me in what I thought would be an uncontested divorce. Unfortunately this quickly became a contested divorce and ultimately ended in an annulment. Throughout the entire process, Attorney Raheen was not only thorough but also experienced and knowledgeable. She always made sure that I understood what was happening throughout my case, and there’s no way I would have gotten through the past year without her on my side.

Great firm and great attorney! I would highly recommend Gretchen Taylor and her firm.

I hired Laila for a child custody case that's was causing me significant stress. I must say she exceeded all my expectations. She truly does care about her clients, she would call you, return your phone calls and and frequently update you on the statue of your case. She is an excellent attorney. I am so grateful for her passion, dedication, expertise, and professionalism. I've hired lawyers before, but you are truly the best I've ever worked with. Thank you so much! I cannot express my gratitude enough for the extraordinary legal job you performed on my behalf

Andrew Lindsey represented me on a somewhat scary traffic charge. I slowly and inadvertently passed a stopped school bus and got a ticket. When I got to court, on my own, I was surprised and dismayed to discover the prosecutor was seeking jail time. The judge said I could get a lawyer and come back. After talking to several firms, I selected Price Benowitz and Andrew, and I am Very glad I did. Andrew instructed me on what I needed to do in advance of the trial date. I followed his advice, and since I was scheduled to be out of state the day of the trial (August 31), I asked if he could have me excused from appearing. He said he would try, and he did. I ended up paying a modest fine, with no points or issues on my driving record. I would strongly recommend Andrew Lindsey, five stars for sure!
