Great legal skills and very caring

Andi was absolutely perfect! She gave very detailed instructions on how to prepare for my reckless driving case. I followed them all and she got my case dismissed! But, most importantly, Andi saw how stressed I was and really cared for me. She is a wonderful combination of great legal skills and has ...a very caring nature. If you are in trouble, go with Andi and you will be glad. I know that I am.

R-D charge? & more Andi helped me!

I was charged with reckless driving-86/55 & Following to close along with Improper Passing (shoulder) loading up the bases i was lucky to not go to jail on the spot. I contacted Andi Geloo and got an immediate response, i retained Andi Geloo and we began a email chain making it so easy to get the inf...o to her she needed to start my defense. Andi always acknowledged my emails and kept me well informed, including about my court date, room and even directions And when court was postponed due to snow she let me know before 6:am. Before court Andi assigned me some simple tasks like community service & a class to be ready. On the day of court i provided Andi with all the ammo i had for my defense and she used all of it. Andi was able to negotiate with the commonwealths attorney (prosecutor) a nolle pross on my two infractions and then to let her argue out my reckless in front of the judge against the trooper and the commonwealth. Andi Geloo stood fast and countered all that the commonwealth brought against me (witch was alot they had on me) Andi made my case so well the judge agreed to reduce my reckless driving charge to improper driving. Absolutely the best outcome i could have ever hoped for (without a time machine) I had the three charges against me one of witch was a misdemeanor (reckless). Two of them she got nolle pross and the big reckless reduced to improper driving! Now i am not a criminal for the rest of my life Thanks to Andi Geloo. Thank You So Very Much Andi You made it possible for me to be in control of my life now instead of the court and to move forward with my life and health, Thanks again. Sincerely, Drew

Don't go in court without Andi beside you

Iv'e known Andi since I moved to Virginia, and learned their driving law and how they differ from my home state. She helped me out of a RD my first week as a new resident in VA. Well several years later, I landed myself in some trouble, and needed expert legal help. I never once gave anyone other ...then Andi a call for help. I knew she would have my back! I was exactly right. I went to court scared out of my mind, and she was like a mom, a very caring mom who wanted the best outcome for me. But also gave me a say in the plea deal, we BOTH agreed on the deal, and it's all behind me now! Andi is the type of lady you meet very infrequently in your life. I mean as someone who cares about you, and you're not just a client with a check. Every case is different, and I know I was expecting the worst, but I got a good deal from the courts. There is no doubt that without Andi's representation I would have had a much much worse outcome! Please call Andi if you need legal help, even if you're not sure, she will get you in the right direction. Law is scary and confusing, she is an expert, and helped me in so many ways!

Are you in trouble? Get Andi ! ! !

Ms. Andi Geloo, From my perspective she is an amazing lawer. Very determined and very given not just to the clients but to the practice. She has helped me with a very serious traffic violation and just recently she help my sister with something similar. Her confidence, passion and expertise m...akes Andi an excellent lawyer..... in other simple words, highly recommended

Posted by Jasmine | March 02, 2015 | Criminal Defense

Genuinely honest and AMAZING attorney.

Andi Geloo not only works your case, she cares and works with you and fights for you. She is the best of the best! She had my class 1 misdemeanor reckless driving in Prince William County 84/65 in a safety highway corridor reduced to a speeding infraction of 79/65... I couldn't have been happier nor... thankful for her work and dedication.

"I offer Ms. Geloo my highest recommendation. I have had the pleasure of being able to observe Andi in action for the past several years, and she is a fierce warrior that obtains great results for her clients. It is always a pleasure to see her in action, whether it's negotiating a favorable outcome for her clients, or taking a matter to trial. She is fearless as they come and is incredibly well respected from courthouse to courthouse and courtroom to courtroom in Virginia. I cannot say enough good things about Andi, and the thing that i find most impressive about her is her kindness and willingness to assist others.
