Criminal charges
-
Assault and battery
Fights that went too far, arguments, self-defense claims. We start with what actually happened, not just the first police report.
Flat fees from $2,000
Drug charges
Possession, possession with intent, prescription cases. Many drug cases turn on one question: was the search legal?
Flat fees from $2,000
Gun and weapons charges
Carrying without a permit, a gun found in a car, possession after a felony. Many gun cases turn on the stop and the search.
Flat fees from $2,500
Theft and fraud
Shoplifting, embezzlement, credit card and check cases. Record-heavy cases need a lawyer who reads every page.
Flat fees from $1,800
Domestic charges
Assault against a family or household member, protective orders and no-contact conditions. Careful work for a hard moment at home.
Flat fees from $2,500
Sex offense charges
Accused, under investigation, or already charged. Private help from the first call, with the registry question in view from day one.
Flat fees from $3,500
Youth and juvenile matters
When a teenager is charged, the court works differently, and so do we. Clear talk for parents, and a lawyer who speaks to your child with respect.
Flat fees from $2,000
Hearings, records and appeals
Bail and bond hearings
If someone you love is being held, the first goal is getting them home. We ask the court to set or lower bond, often within days.
Flat fees from $1,000
Probation violations
A missed check-in, a failed drug test, or a new arrest while on probation. A violation hearing is not a trial, so the plan has to be different.
Flat fees from $1,500
Expungement and record sealing
An old charge still showing up on background checks? Virginia allows some records to be expunged or sealed. We check whether yours may qualify.
Flat fees from $1,000
Appeals referral
We do not handle appeals ourselves. We review your outcome for free and refer you to appellate lawyers we trust.
Free review and referral
Not sure what you were charged with?
That is common. Charge papers use code numbers and legal words. Pick “Not sure” in the case review, or read the charge to us over the phone, and we will tell you what it means in plain English.
