Challenging the Stop

We use this defense mostly in DUI and DWI cases. In these cases, the police must possess probable cause to stop someone, whether walking or driving. However, law enforcement officers are usually overzealous in fulfilling their duties and can stop people without reasonable suspicion or probable cause. We constantly review the reasons a law enforcement officer had to stop our clients. If the stop was illegal, the evidence they collected, if any, would be inadmissible in court.

I hired the Virginia Criminal Attorney law firm for DUI charges. I can attest that it is the best law firm for these cases. Attorneys here understand Virginia DUI law, and my assigned lawyer ensured I received quality adjudication. He managed to have my DUI charge lowered to reckless driving. I highly recommend this law firm to anyone facing DWI or DUI charges in Fairfax. You will not be disappointed, as you may not have to face hefty consequences.

Attorneys at Virginia Criminal Attorney were great for my son’s assault case. The case was tough, but my son’s lawyers were very responsive and professional. In the end, they managed to have the judge lower the severity of the charges, leading to a lenient penalty for my son. I was extremely pleased, and I highly recommend this law firm

Kristen R.

My friend referred me to the Virginia Criminal Attorney because my wife had falsely accused me of domestic abuse. I heard the work of lawyers in this firm was great, and they had a high reputation. True to what I had heard, the lawyers know what they are doing and are known in courthouses across Fairfax and Northern Virginia. They took on my case and responded promptly to my concerns and questions. Thanks to them, the judge dropped the charges against me. I appreciate their assistance. Hopefully, I will not need a lawyer again. However, if I did, I would, without a doubt, appoint them as my counsel.
