Outstanding criminal defense lawyer

I have retained for a DUI case and he did an outstanding work. Professional, ethical and trustworthy, Mr. Pignone was available, very responsive and very helpful in every step and ensured the best possible outcome. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who can benefit from his service. I was alw...ays able to call him and ask him any questions I needed answered anything I was worried about or anything that I didn't understand. He always made the time to answer everything question I needed answered. If you are looking for a good criminal defense lawyer, look no further, he is the one you need.

Awesome Lawyer

I recommend Michael Pignone because I had a dui case and he worked very hard to help my case. Being this was my second offense he was very clear and straight forward with the outcome. He is very understanding and truly cares about the people he represents and takes his cases very serious. I would def...initely recommend him to anyone who has a situation. I was given a restricted license for 6 months and have to do classes. I have to be honest I feared jail time but he truly investigated my case and help with me having to do just those two things. He is awesome and worked with me all the way through and specially understanding my situation.

DUI 1st Offense

I sat down with Mike and explained I was facing a DUI with a high BAC level. I detailed the event, some of my concerns with the arrest, and how the BAC test was given to me at the station. He sat and actively listened to me. After I was done, Mike was straight forward and honest with me about my situ...ation and what were the possible outcomes, including possible jail time. Mike worked hard researching my case and going over discovery. In the end, he was able to get my BAC level removed from record which in turn took jail time off the table. I highly recommend Mike for his professionalism, expertise, and results in my situation.

DWI 1st Offense amended to reckless

I have hired Michael Pignone twice now to represent me in DWI 1st Offense. For the first case, nearly a decade ago in Prince William County, I was just barely over the limit and did a field sobriety test. The state had all they needed for conviction. I went for a consultation with Michael Pignone and... hired him on the spot. He clearly told me what was going on, what my chances were, and what I needed to do prior to court. He continued my case. Final result, the charge was amended to a reckless with a one year suspension of license (drive only to and from work, asap classes, or medical appointments). In 2017 I got arrested and charged with DWI in Prince William County and was below the legal limit, at .06. This time, I didn't submit to the field sobriety checks and only submitted to breathalizer in the station. I hired Michael Pignone on the spot. He continued the case and negotiated a plea to reckless with a $400 fine plus court costs, 30 days suspended sentence without suspension of license or probation or ASAP. Talk to him in consultation and it is clear he knows the DWI laws inside and out. What's more he seems to enjoy taking these cases and working for his clients. If you get charged with a DWI or any serious traffic offense, especially in Prince William, I would highly recommend hiring Michael Pignone.

Reckless Driving Citation

My daughter recently received a ticket for reckless driving. It is the first speeding ticket she has ever gotten. Michael worked with her and the court to have it fully dismissed if she agreed to a court ordered driver improvement class. He is professional and courteous. Top notch individual. Do your...self a favor and hire this gentleman. Won't be disappointed!
