August McCarthy

I would recommend August to anyone who needed an attentive, assuring lawyer who would get the job done and keep you informed along the way. With my criminal charge, he never left me in the dark, I knew what his plans were as well as what he thought the prosecution's plans were, and he spoke to me wit...h respect and dignity, not like I was a criminal or uneducated. In the end, he was able to get all charges dismissed and we walked away happy. Overall he is a very kind man and a darn good lawyer. I would hire him 100x over if I needed an attorney again.

The best of the best!!!

August was my emotional saving grace! He is an outside the box attorney that takes the fear away with out sugar coating the outcome. I will forever be grateful for his expertise, hard work and dedication to my unfortunate/complicated DUI case. He was always easy to reach, day or night to explain anyt...hing and everything in a way that I could understand. He gives you everything he has and you know he is there for what is in your best interest not his. He will forever be my go to for any future legal needs. Thank you August!

Amazing Traffic Defense

When I was cited for reckless driving in Fauquier county my heart sunk. i was facing a potential sentence of up to 60 days in jail, thousands in fines and a suspended license. i am blessed to have found Mr. McCarthy's firm! August advised me and put me at ease throughout the case, and I followed hi...s instructions and recommendations to the letter. When the my court date came up August had my back 100% Thanks to all the work we had put prior to the date and his amazing defense, he was able to reduce my sentence to less than a weekend in jail, a fraction of the cost and best of all my license was not touched! If you get in trouble in Fauquier county, dont hesitate to reach out to Mr. McCarthy

Highly recommended

Mr. McCarthy is a top notch lawyer. He took the time to review my case, listen to my side of the situation and fought for me. He knows the law and will defend you as your lawyer should. If you need a lawyer who goes above and beyond for you, he is the man you need to hire. You will not be disappoint...ed. Excellent and impressive are the words I will use to describe this gentleman. Thank you again Mr. McCarthy.
