Simply a Great Lawyer

Marie was recommended to me when I was looking for a new lawyer to prepare my will. I can unhesitatingly say that she and her staff set the standard of caring, yet professional service other law offices should emulate. From the first phone call to inquire about an appointment to the signing of the ...documents, the process flowed incredibly smoothly and efficiently. Marie's extensive knowledge and professionalism are apparent in the first few minutes, yet she has a warm personality, is easy to talk to, and knows how to explain things in lay language without watering down the content or talking down to her client. There were a few unusual aspects to my estate, for which two other lawyers had been unable to clearly advise me on how to address in my will or letter of instruction for my Executor. But Marie instantly had clear, sound advice that solved those problems for me. Additionally, all documents were prepared promptly and the response time on follow-up questions was speedy, far faster than my expectations. Marie cares about her clients and you feel as if you are her top priority, even though you know preparing a will is not the same as preparing a criminal case for court deadlines. And she doesn't nickle and dime you to death, being not only straightforward and transparent about her fees up front, but offering options that can save you fees. I will choose Marie if a ever need a lawyer again. She is one of a kind. The good kind.

Effective!

I have known Marie since high school, she hasn't changed a bit. She was even named by Fauquier Times as the Citizen of the Year for 2014. No doubt you can attribute that success to hard work, honesty, and a big heart. Fauquier Times article says it the best, "Everything she does, she does it because ...she’s just driven to help others." Her dedication to her work and to her customers makes her a great asset to many. I was glad to have her resolve my recent legal issue to recover some funds for my business. With all this in mind, I highly recommend Marie Washington to anyone that needs an awesome attorney on their side.

Excellent Attorney

It is my pleasure to write a review on behalf of Marie Washington. After reading about her credentials via her website, I decided to contact her to represent me. My case regarded a criminal traffic violation and through the hard work of Ms. Washington, I am more than pleased at the outcome. Upon ...meeting with her to discuss my case, she demonstrated a vast amount of skill and knowledge of the law. She was extremely friendly and seemed (and proved) to truly care about the well-being of her clients. Throughout the process, I was always kept up to date with information regarding my case, and she was more than glad to answer my questions, doing so rather speedily. She made a stressful situation as painless and possible. I can confidently say that Marie Washington is a great attorney, possessing impressive intellect and a great personality. I highly recommend her services to prospective clients.

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.
