BEST ATTORNEY IN DC & VA! Attorneys hire Todd!

Todd Baldwin aggressively defended me. Other attorneys told me to plead guilty. Todd believed I was wrongly accused and refused that I plead guilty to something I did not do. Instead, Todd persuaded the prosecutor to drop the charge. Todd knew the law, had multiple strategies, and answered all of my ...questions. Todd cared! If you need a criminal attorney, call Todd because you cannot find anyone better. I know because I am an attorney. It will be the best thing you can do for yourself!

The Best Attorney You Can Find

Todd is first of all a gentleman who shows kindness. He really cares about his client. On top of that he is an “Outstanding!!” attorney! Todd worked with us weekly over a long and serious court process. Through his efforts of working with us and the prosecutor’s office he was able to obtain the b...est outcome possible without any doubt! He is a brilliant attorney and he takes care of things for you while making sure you know what is happening and expected all along the way. Although he is a caring man, he is comfortable and confident in court and will defend you with a passion! He has very competitive pricing and we came to him because the top attorney in another area said he was the best, and she was right! I cannot say enough about the value you will receive from Mr. Baldwin and I am thankful to Christ for bringing us to him!

Outstanding Lawyer

First off let me explain why Mr. Baldwin is “OUTSTANDING”. I came to him because of reviews and word of mouth. I had a Felony charge and Misdemeanor charge, which was able to get the felony charge dropped & only paid $89 for court cost. WOW if you only knew! But beside the fact he did what any lawye...r should do, which is fight for you, he is a respectful gentlemen who did not judge me, rush me out his office door, and he answered all my question telling me “in’s & out” of what could happened. I also had a warrant for my arrest in my case and Mr. Baldwin spent all day fixing the problem that was not even his mistake that was made. End of story I spent no time in jail or did any community service. I highly recommend him, coming from someone who has experienced in other lawyers and getting into trouble. Because of the result he has showed I will always remain a client of his. Thank you again Mr. Baldwin!

AWSOME!!

Our case took over 18 months due to court complex court issues. I got to know Todd well, he worked extremely hard from start to finish. He always quickly returned all my calls and responded quickly to my emails. He fought hard for us in court many times and never gave up. We got the results we w...ere praying for. He truly cared about us. This case intertwined another case. I was dealing with 4 attorney's at one time, Todd was the best out of all of them!! I highly recommend him. He will fight for you!
