She is the best Miss Andi is a kind person who is always trying to help no matter what my case was the worst situation ever my record driving was really bad and I got a reckless driving 85/55 I cry a lot until I found her she explain me everything and told me what to do she went to court with me to f...ight the ticket 3 times until she can reduce the charge to a regular speed ticket I will always thank what she did for me

86/65 (Reckless Charge) Hire Andi!!!!

Ms. Geloo is AWESOME at what she does! From day one of contacting her (and not getting a representative of her office, I spoke directly to her), she reassured me not to worry or stress and that I had nothing to be nervous about. From the start of our initial conversation regarding my case, she was ve...ry warm, friendly, confident and displayed a genuinely compassionate spirit. She gave me a detailed list of items to accomplish prior to my court date. I was sure to complete everything she advised. The night before court she reached out to me and provided me an additional set of instructions on where to meet, what to bring, what to do, etc. The morning of court I was sooooo nervous as I was unsure of the outcome. Being in the Federal contracting world I could not afford to have a Misdemeanor on my record. On the morning of court Ms. Geloo greeted me with a huge smile and a warm hug to reassure me that everything was going to be alright. I'm not sure how she did it, but she managed to get my whole case DISMISSED which resulted in me just having to pay court fees. I was very happy with this outcome as it went better than I could of ever imagined. Andi is a true gem and exceptionally marvelous at what she does. Her knowledge, attention to detail and genuineness made choosing her to represent me an easy decision from the start! Do not hesitate to hire her, she's simply a genuine and beautiful person inside and out and THE BOMB at what she does! (lol) I'm so happy I hired Andi as I feel I would not of had this outcome if I went with anybody else. She's not only a great attorney but she made me feel like a friend! Andi, THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I cannot thank you enough for what you've accomplished for me and my case.

Hire Andi Geloo

I am writing here on my own behalf and with NO encouragement from Ms Geloo or anyone. I know testimonials can be all over the place but let me be real and straight to the point; Hire Andi Geloo. My ignorance of not knowing how serious a reckless driving speeding ticket is caused me to look for a lawy...er the Weekend of my court date hearing (contacting on a Sunday, for a Monday court hearing). Ms Geloo actually responded and without asking for anything from me, offered advice on asking for a continuance and even did so by drafting a letter for me to present to the judge. Again, without asking anything from me. It worked and I received a continuance. Needless to say at my actual court hearing, after doing the items Ms Geloo advised me to do (reckless class, car calibration etc), She was able to drop my reckless driving charge (82 in a 55) to a non criminal minor speeding charge (and 74 in a 55). This was all accomplished even with me having an extensive speeding record history. So if you didn’t read any of this review, read this, HIRE Andi Geloo!

A-M-A-ZING!!!!!

Wow! Ms. Geloo is unbelievably skilled in her training as criminal defense lawyer. She handled my traffic case like 'butter.' I was not anxious about my outcome as she not only came HIGHLY recommended, but extremely knowledgeable, personable, and simply brilliant in her element. I was beyond plea...sed with her expertise from the beginning to the end! You can NEVER go wrong hiring her! --Just close your eyes and trust the process of her you the right results. Thank you Ms. Geloo! I'm honor to have had you on my side and truly blessed to have experience your expertise with such grace. You are truly one of a kind :)

Highly Recommended

I hired Andi for a pretty extreme reckless speeding ticket (72/35) which, given my occupation, was potentially life altering as the possibilities are jail and loss of license. My job has a zero tolerance for such things, so I was desperate. I'm glad that I was recommended Andi, because it quickly bec...ame clear her courtroom tactics and passion for her job were unmatched and I needed all the help I could get. She managed to have the charge reduced to an infraction and really turned a dark situation in my life around. I highly recommend Andi and suggest you do what she advises prior to court.

"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.
