I would recommend August to anyone who needed an attentive, assuring lawyer who would get the job done and keep you informed along the way. With my criminal charge, he never left me in the dark, I knew what his plans were as well as what he thought the prosecution's plans were, and he spoke to me with respect and dignity, not like I was a criminal or uneducated. In the end, he was able to get all charges dismissed and we walked away happy. Overall he is a very kind man and a darn good lawyer. I would hire him 100x over if I needed an attorney again.

August was my emotional saving grace! He is an outside the box attorney that takes the fear away with out sugar coating the outcome. I will forever be grateful for his expertise, hard work and dedication to my unfortunate/complicated DUI case. He was always easy to reach, day or night to explain anything and everything in a way that I could understand. He gives you everything he has and you know he is there for what is in your best interest not his. He will forever be my go to for any future legal needs. Thank you August!

When I was cited for reckless driving in Fauquier county my heart sunk. i was facing a potential sentence of up to 60 days in jail, thousands in fines and a suspended license. i am blessed to have found Mr. McCarthy's firm! August advised me and put me at ease throughout the case, and I followed his instructions and recommendations to the letter. When the my court date came up August had my back 100% Thanks to all the work we had put prior to the date and his amazing defense, he was able to reduce my sentence to less than a weekend in jail, a fraction of the cost and best of all my license was not touched! If you get in trouble in Fauquier county, dont hesitate to reach out to Mr. McCarthy

Mr. McCarthy is a top notch lawyer. He took the time to review my case, listen to my side of the situation and fought for me. He knows the law and will defend you as your lawyer should. If you need a lawyer who goes above and beyond for you, he is the man you need to hire. You will not be disappointed. Excellent and impressive are the words I will use to describe this gentleman. Thank you again Mr. McCarthy.

Mr McCarthy helped me get custody of my grandson. He was thoughtful and knowledgeable and kept me on track for the end goal i needed to make sure my grandson was safe. He went above and beyond and was awesome!

August has been my attorney through a very scary time in my life and I am thankful to have him on my side. He has been a calming and confident presence during very difficult court appearances. His dedication and knowledge of the law is just what I have needed throughout my journey. I have recommended him to several of my family members and friends and would happily continue to do so.

From the very first phone call to the last correspondence we had, he proved every review I read on him. I didn’t have a particularly difficult custody case, but it was emotional and I sought representation that would be logical, clear and available for me. August was all of that. You really do feel as though you are getting one on one service. I was always able to reach him and never went through a secretary or front desk. He’s amazing, do yourself a favor and call August McCarthy

I got a ticket as I was traveling through VA. I searched for lawyers and talked to a few different ones before I settled on August. He worked so hard to keep me out of jail, get a felony charge completely dismissed, and only pay a fine on a misdemeanor. It could have been very bad for me, but he was well worth the money I paid him. He knows the law. He definitely prepared me for trial, although he worked hard to not go to trial, but that was on the DA, not August. I’m so grateful for my results. I hope to never need another lawyer, but if I do need one in VA again I’m contacting August!!!!

I've had the opportunity to work with many lawyers over the last 35 yrs and Mr. McCarthy is quite simply the best I have seen. With Mr. McCarthy you get a highly knowledgeable, insightful, intelligent and hard working advocate. The man never stops thinking or working. Mr. McCarthy is not going to focus on every quarter hour billed for an email while providing formulaic representation that is too often executed by support staff. Your going to get insightful and focused representation that reflects the specifics of your particular situation. You will be getting an attorney that can craft clear, well thought out, articulate arguments both in the courtroom and in any documents he produces. Mr. McCarthy will provide you with a winning strategy and tactical execution. Lastly, the man is one of the most ethical people I have known professionally.

I consulted with August. Great attorney would recommend him to anyone that has a case

I am rarely compelled to write reviews. In fact this is the first time I have ever been on here. But when I encounter a person of Mr. McCarthy's expertise, character and work ethic, I am compelled to write this review. This lawyer is everything but what many unfounded stereotypes profess some lawyers to be. I am a senior citizen and over the course of many years I have had my share of interactions with the legal profession. Never have I had such a positive experience in every way than I have had with Mr. McCarthy. His knowledge of the law and especially his ability to cite previous cases for my benefit were remarkable. He seems to remember everything and he is superb in the courtroom. In each of my several court appearances it was obvious that I had the superior lawyer. And we won each time. Aside from great results (that were not anticipated!), his compassion and his spiritual nature have clearly shone through. I am an excellent judge of character. You can trust Mr. McCarthy without hesitation. He has a true passion for doing the right thing for his clients and everyone else.

I had a very serious case which was causing me a great deal of stress. Mr McCarthy met with me several times. He was very careful to explain everything to me. He kept me updated on the case, went to court with me, and made sure I was well represented. I was treated like my case mattered to him. I am on a payment plan that I can manage. I would tell anyone with a civil trial in their path to hire him.
