Many criminal defendants in Fairfax and the surrounding areas come to us for help, and many people, including prospective clients, wonder why. Here are some of the qualities that set us apart from other law firms, which make us the preferred option for many:
We Are Familiar With Local Courts
Every county in Virginia and every courthouse has its way of handling criminal cases. For example, the criminal court process in Prince William County differs from that in Fairfax County General District Court. If a lawyer does not understand local procedures and rules, they will be subject to many obstacles that can adversely affect the case outcome.
We are conversant with how Fairfax courthouses operate. Since we constantly work in the same courthouses, we have built trusting, long-lasting relationships with administrative clerks, judges, and prosecutors. This is highly beneficial to our clients since we can establish which party has discretion regarding different cases.
No two judges are the same; their opinions vary wildly. Since we have interacted with these judges for years, we assist our clients in understanding what to anticipate. On top of that, we help them determine the ideal steps to follow and ensure they achieve the most favorable results.
We Offer Aggressive Defense from the Onset
Many defense lawyers relax until the court date to begin working on their clients’ cases. Some might wait for the prosecutors to hand them police reports and criminal complaints. For us, this is not an effective approach. We believe that preparation is vital, particularly in criminal cases. We also believe in a proactive approach and will begin working on our clients’ cases immediately. This helps us ensure we are ready when we go to court.
Our law firm consists of lawyers devoted to approaching every case proactively. Put otherwise, we waste no time in preparing our clients’ defense. You want to call us as soon as possible once the prosecution has pressed charges against you. This will enable us to fully use our resources and time to develop your case since most of the trial preparation and case work happens before the initial court proceeding. During this crucial period, we can formally request evidence the prosecution might use against you, evaluate valid defenses, and establish whether we can convince the prosecutor to reduce or drop your charges.
We Do Not Leave Our Clients’ Future to Chance
No one should navigate the criminal justice system on their own. At Virginia Criminal Attorney, our lawyers remain adamantly in our clients’ corner from the first day. From understanding Virginia Code Sections to having an insider’s perspective of the prosecutorial process, our team’s experience and background uniquely prepare us to defend our clients. We understand how the prosecution thinks and prepares for any particular case, its inherent biases, what it expects, and what it will and will not accept.
If accused of an offense, nothing matters more than your entire future. However, that future is on the line. The kind of criminal defense you receive makes a difference. It will determine whether you save or ruin your future. Quality criminal defense necessitates extensive experience, critical presentation skills, meticulous perseverance, and in-depth law knowledge. This is precisely what we offer at Virginia Criminal Attorney.
We Have a Proven Record of Success
We have a track record of success handling a wide range of criminal cases. We have established ourselves as trusted advocates for defendants in Fairfax facing severe criminal accusations. Our skilled lawyers have achieved many favorable results for our clients. They have registered acquittals, dismissals, and charge reductions. Any client who hires us usually rests assured knowing their case is in good hands.
We Offer Personalized Defense
We understand that every criminal case has unique facts. Therefore, we offer defense strategies tailored to the special circumstances of every client. Thanks to our extensive knowledge of Virginia criminal law, we provide clients with knowledgeable, aggressive, and skilled legal advice personalized to their case.
Your Case Is Very Personal to Us
Nothing is more important to our lawyers than the outcome and success of our clients’ cases. We are experts in criminal defense. That is all we do, and we do it well. We pride ourselves on providing clients with high-quality legal representation. That is why all our lawyers have several years of litigation and trial experience.
Dealing with the Virginia legal justice system can be intimidating, but it need not be that way. Our attorneys are devoted to giving clients peace of mind and achieving positive outcomes. Whereas many law firms practice different areas of law, we only specialize in criminal defense. We desire to truly be proficient in what we do. That means turning down many prospective clients in favor of those to whom we can provide high-quality service due to our specialty.
We have over two decades of experience tackling hundreds of severe misdemeanor and felony cases. As skilled criminal defense attorneys, we aim to minimize the penalties associated with charges. We will inform you of the statute impacting your case and the potential consequences of a conviction, and advise you of the ideal strategy to solve your case.
