Don't second guess it, just hire Andi!

All I have to say about Andi is that she is amazing! I called her a week before my court date and she did not hesitate in helping me out. She responded very quickly. She was able to work with me with payment, which I am extremely grateful for. Andi is wonderful! I'm so thankful she answered me, the c...ourt day went smoothly. She assured me that she would do everything in her power to have my charges dropped to the lowest charge she could get, and she achieved it. It was stress free. Thank you so much Andi! I recommend her to everyone!!

Posted by Shawn | July 08, 2014 | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Saved my record, and insurance! :)

What else can I say that everyone hasn't already said! Andi is in my opinion the best attorney anyone could ask for during a stressful time. I got my only RD when I first moved here, and didn't realize how serious Virginia takes it. After doing some research, I called Andi and knew from the phone cal...l she was the right choice for representation. She frequently called me to inform me of any changes or updates. How many attorneys do that, or even return a phone call in the same day?? She is worth EVERY penny, my charge was reduced to a minor traffic violation, and the fine was close to nothing. I never even saw the judge, (Thank God!) To anyone reading this, Fauquier county does NOT mess around when it comes to speeding. Jail time is not out of the question, and the only judge in that small town is not so friendly. Andi was determined to help me get the best outcome, and she did! She really gets it, and (hope I don't need her services again haha) but if I do, I have her office number on speed dial..... just incase :) Andi, hope you see this and remember me, you got me through a tough time, and my record is still clean because of you!! Hope all is well!!

Andi is a lawyer who cares, no joke!

When I found myself in need of legal services, the prospect of finding a lawyer was daunting. A friend gave me Andi Geloo’s info, and sang her praises for fighting (and winning) on behalf of her son in court. I saw posts by others who had been through similar experiences. Andi’s name repeatedly su...rfaced and was praised by others for her knowledge, wit, spirit, strong defenses and skills. Overwhelmed, I did not know what to expect. Andi’s compassionate competence is unparalleled. She helped me prepare, educated me as to what to expect, kept me informed during each step of the process, and truly fought for me. She knows and understands the players and dynamics in court uncommonly well. Thanks to Andi the consequences of my behavior were but a fraction what they could have been. If I, or anybody I care about needs a lawyer – Andi Geloo is the one to have.

Recommend Highly!!

I recommend Andi Geloo highly! She represented me and my case a year ago and I couldn't have been happier with how it turned out. I have even contacted Andi since my case and she was able to give me advice at the drop of a dime...she is the best out there hands down!

Posted by Jon | July 07, 2014 | Criminal Defense

Look no further, She is the best out there.

Jon Barnes If you are looking for someone to represent you, stop waisting your time and give Ms Andi a call. This lady is amazing. I asked her to represent me this past summer after I got stopped. She was fast to return my phone call and started giving me advice right away. After taking her advice a...nd completing the few things she asked me to do, I could not have asked for a better outcome. Most of our communication was buy email as I was in Afghanistan at the time. She is super easy to work with and talk too. As the court date approached she reassured me many times that she had everything under control and not to worry about a thing. I have to say the day I showed up to court I was nervous but her reassurance had me totally at peace about everything. So when my turn came up, she did her thing and I was in and out just like that with, a better outcome than I ever expected. This lady is awesome. So after thanking her many times and telling her what a rockstar I though she was, I was off to pay my court fees. After paying an walking back down the hall I noticed her speaking to the other party of someone she was representing. Little Ms Geloo was going after them with both barrels. I thought that I was going to have to pull her off but she was an absolute professional about it. Needless to say I would hate to be on the other side of that conversation. She was protecting her client like a mother lion would protect her cubs. I was like wow, thats a bad lady. As a Marine, I really appreciated it. I can not say enough good things about her she is just one of those awesome people that the world needs a lot more of. I know she mentioned she liked the recies peanut-butter cups, so if you want to start off on the right foot, show up with some of those. After my court case, I wanted to send them everyday. Ms Andi, thank you for all that you did for me. You took something that I was pretty worried about and made it a non issue. You even gave me a discount for being a Marine. You are the definition of awesome rockstar. Thank you so much for everything, I cant say it enough. Jon

"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.
