Top Notch Representation

Marie Washington is, plainly, the best of the best when it comes to attorneys. This is the second time I have utilized her services, and could once again I was blown away by her commitment to me and my case, regardless of how menial it may have been. Marie fights for her clients, provides a genuine s...houlder to cry on, she truly wears many hats, and is a testament to her profession. I will always use her services, and will continue to recommend her to friends, family, and strangers. "Though she be but little, she is fierce."

Best in town!

I highly recommend Ms. Washington! I actually met her a few years back and when I came to her about my divorce, she remembered me, which made things a lot more comfortable for me. Through out the entire process Ms. Washington and her staff were super nice and always had an answer if I had any at all.... I wasn't sure how long my case would take but to me, it was short and to the point. Everything was taken care of and I got immediate responses via phone or email. I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer to work with. I will definitely go to her for any future legal matters!

Marie Washington - Excellent Lawyer

I recently hired Marie Washington for a reckless speeding violation I received in Fauquier County. My interaction with Marie started off with a free consultation in which she was able to provide me with a great deal of information and unbiased advice on what I should do. I had contacted 5+ lawyers be...fore I found Marie, and I chose to work with her because she seemed to have a genuine interest in my case and she has built a great relationship with the local judge and DA over her many years of practice. She was very professional, very responsive, and extremely knowledgeable about the state laws and local court system. She and her staff did a excellent job of keeping me informed of the process and in the end, they were even able to get my charges reduced significantly so that I only paid a small fine. I would highly recommend her to anybody who has speeding tickets or traffic violations. Can't hurt to call for a free consultation. Marie, thanks so much for the help! Let's hope I never need your representation again. :)

Virginia Reckless Driving Charge

Marie represented me on a charge of reckless driving, 20 mph over the posted speed limit. This was my first offense after many years of driving and can potentially result in a criminal record. I found Marie through the Virginia Bar Association and was very pleased with the professional and efficient ...way in which she handled my case. As discussed in our initial 30 minute face to face meeting Marie was able to get the charge reduced to a traffic infraction. I am very grateful for her help and the courteous service provided by Marie and her staff. Marie is professional but at the same time caring and reassuring. I have Marie in my contact list and I would not hesitate to recommend her law office to anyone in need of legal representation.
