Great representation and results

Bradley represented me for a unique reckless driving charge that I was very, very worried about. He was honest with me about possible outcomes (and didn't make any guarantees), gave me advice about what I could do prior to my court date to improve my chances of a lesser charge, and was available to ...answer any and all questions I had about my case. Prior to the day of my court appearance, Bradley walked me through what to expect in court, and on the morning of my hearing, he was helpful and informative. The charge ended up being reduced to improper driving (an infraction rather than a misdemeanor), and it wouldn't have been possible without Bradley's representation.

Caring, Sincere, Skilled and Honest Attorney!

Many thanks to Brad and his team at Henson Pachuta & Kammerman, who are an exceptional group of attorneys! I consulted with him on an immigration matter after reading stellar reviews on AVVO and consulting with a couple other attorneys in the area. The consultation was free, no-strings attached. He w...as warm and very reassuring without providing any guarantees. He even offered to write a list of resources and things I would need to do/file if I decided to pursue my case on my own, even before I committed to hiring him. During our consultation, he began to identify possible alternative routes and contingency plans if things didn't go as expected. I was impressed by his knowledge, but more so by his affability, sincerity, level of interest and ability to relate to my situation. I was confident, not that I would be successful in my petition, but that he and his team would do their absolute best representing my case - which they did! Eight months later, my case has been successfully resolved. I was so moved when he and his entire team warmly congratulated me on our success when last I visited their office. Henson Kammerman and Pachuta are also affordable and willing to work with their clients' budgets. Great lawyers with a genuine human touch. I plan to use them if/when I have future legal matters.

Best Criminal Defense Attorney in Northern Virginia, Hands Down!

Mr. Henson and his firm has provided me with peace of mind throughout my litigation process. I found him online on AVVO and decided to set up a an initial FREE consultation. My case was very complicated and required an attorney who is not only experienced, but also understood the implication of the v...erdict of my case. Mr. Henson and his team welcomed me into his office and took the time to understand me as an individual and my overall situation before we discussed the details of the case. He was sincere, patient, and was willing to work with me. I felt very comfortable with his expertise in Virginia criminal law and decided to retain him. His fees are very reasonable for the type of dedication and outcome he has provided me with. He advised me what to do before we went to court and I followed his guidance and completed all the required documents. He stayed in contact during the entire process with follow ups via text, phone, and email which made me feel comfortable leading to the court date. The outcome of the case was in my favor, as he explained and I was very happy and relieved to be able to move forward with my life. I have since retained Mr. Henson and his partner for my pending immigration cases. I know him and his experienced team will work endlessly for me and I hope that this case results as my case in Virginia. I think I have a great chance with Brad and his firm fighting for me. I would recommend Mr. Henson to everyone and plan on retaining him for all my legal needs in Virginia moving forward. DKarki VA Resident

One of the Best Lawyer in Town.

I am very thankful to Mr Bradley for his services in my wife case, which was impossible to go in our favor. He worked very hard on her case to make sure she wont go to jail. I highly recommend Bradley Henson and his team to anyone that needs help with criminal and immigration cases.

Reckless Driving in Fairfax County

How do you choose the right attorney when there are tons of them promising the same results? We used Mr. Henson's services for a reckless driving offense my son incurred. He was very pleasant, forthcoming and knowledgeable. He was very detailed and provided us with instructions and items to comple...te prior to going to court. This information provided a more favorable defense and my son was able to get a more lenient penalty. I probably compared about a dozen or so attorneys prior to making a final selection. I'm grateful I selected him to represent us. The overall experience was more than satisfactory and I strongly recommend using his service if you are searching for a quality licensed professional.
