Quick and efficient work

I called Andrew Lindsey to get advice about going to speak with a detective who asked me to come in and give a statement for a serious charge. Mr. Lindsey quickly returned my call and gave me very helpful advice about what to do and what to expect. At this point I had not paid Mr. Lindsey a dime, but... he still treated me as if I were an important client that needed immediate attention. Mr. Lindsey allowed me to insert him as a barrier between myself and the detective to feel out whether they were trying to trick me with the questions, and to pre-approve the questions they wanted to ask me. Mr. Lindsey stayed on speakerphone during the entire interview as well to make sure everything went fine. I walked out of there without being arrested or charged, and as far as I know no case will be brought against me. I can now go back to getting a decent night's sleep at night thanks to Mr. Lindsey!

Andrew Lindsey was very helpful with my case. He answered all of the questions that I had and specifics for the case. He was very detailed and thoughtful as to what would be expected. I was very satisfied with his work and would highly recommend Andrew as an Attorney .

Extremely Happy Client

I got into an unfortunate accident and was charged with a few different things even though insurance determined that no one was at fault. I looked up Mr. Lindsey online and decided to hire him for the case. Mr. Lindsey was very flexible and responsive in terms of meeting with me and my mother at his ...office, and keeping us updated about his defense strategies and predictions. He was able to do almost exactly what he said he could with the prosecutor, and we were able to resolve everything to my satisfaction on the first court date. Mr. Lindsey was even kind enough to drive me back to his office from court so I could wait comfortable for my ride back home! I would recommend Mr. Lindsey to anyone who wants a full and informed defense for driving related traffic and criminal charges.

Andrew Lindsey is an objectively amazing attorney, and I DO NOT say that lightly. I have more familiarity than I would like with NOVA criminal defense attorneys and the criminal justice system due to multiple family members that often get into serious legal trouble. Even though he is probably the you...ngest attorney to ever represent my family, Mr. Lindsey is hands down the best hiring choice we've ever made. He is extremely responsive whenever you need to reach him, and he is a great communicator and expectation-setter. He will take cases in directions that no one else is willing or able to go, and it is clear that he very much cares about the actual wellbeing of his clients' friends and family outside of just narrow legal issues. At the same time, he is always aggressively pursuing the best legal result possible for his clients, and he has earned a local reputation of getting great outcomes for very difficult people. I have literally witnessed him save people from years and years in prison when other attorneys could not. He is worth every penny that he charges, and he is also very reasonable about fees and financing. I will never stop coming to Andrew Lindsey first whenever I want to consult a criminal defense attorney about a charge, and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone in need of potential criminal representation!

Outstanding Attorney!

I was wrongfully charged for failing to yield when I got into a car wreck that wasn't my fault. I called Mr. Lindsey and told him I wanted to completely dispute the charge because the police thought I would just prepay and move on. Mr. Lindsey immediately began developing a trial defense with me ...after discussing the case on the phone. When I went into the office to meet Mr. Lindsey and hire him, he was very polite and prepared. He had gathered together different Google Maps street view angles to support my cell phone pictures, and he explained all of the concepts and procedures that would be involved with a trial or a plea offer. He also called a witness of mine right there over the phone to make him comfortable about showing up and testifying. Mr. Lindsey always promptly answered every call, text, and email that I sent him all the way up to trial, and even sent me a court reminder the day before. When we went to court, Mr. Lindsey had prepared a lot of colored photographs as evidence. I was pretty nervous, but he calmed me down by saying he "had a good feeling" about the charge. He was actually looking forward to going to trial, but he managed to convince the prosecutor and police officer to just entirely DROP the case without a trial at all! Everything went even better than according to plan, and my witness and I were able to just walk out of the courthouse with no more problems and nothing on my record. I was completely satisfied with Mr. Lindsey, and I could tell that he is a very serious and successful attorney in general. He enjoys fighting hard for common people who are being wronged by the system, no matter how small the charge.

"I had the opportunity to work with Mr. Lindsey on a very complex criminal case several years ago, and after that experience as well as observing his work on several other cases, I can endorse this lawyer without hesitation. He possesses all the attributes of an outstanding criminal defense lawyer. He is zealous and confident without being arrogant. He is extremely hard working and knowledgeable about the law. He is patient and honest with his clients. Most of all he is not afraid to fight to get the best possible outcome in each case. If a family member or friend of mine got in trouble and told me they had hired Andrew to represent them, I would rest easy knowing they were in good hands."

"I wholeheartedly endorse Andrew Lindsey as a Virginia criminal defense practitioner. Having worked alongside Andrew on a daily basis both inside and outside of court, I can say that he is one of the most prepared and thoughtful defense attorneys I have encountered so far. Andrew has a diverse amount of defense experience throughout Virginia, and it really shows in terms of his approaches, his predictions, and his results across differing jurisdictions. It also shows in his willingness to accept all kinds of cases, sometimes at significant discounts, for client's who are truly in need of a dedicated defense despite their financial situations. I myself have benefitted from his input and advice on multiple occasions, and he is a great attorney to collaborate with if you are looking for constructive perspective. Many of Andrew's clients realize they are lucky to have him, and I certainly anticipate referring others to him who need a novel advocate in their corner."
