Andi Geloo Your BEST chane for a favorable outcome

I received a Reckless Driving ticket in a rural county by Roanoke, Va which carried fines, license suspension, and possibly jail time. Being an out of state driver from NJ, I didn't know who to contact. Should I hire a local attorney or the best from Fairfax regularly handles these types of cases? Fr...om my first contact with Ms. Geloo, she was professional, compassionate, and up front about what to expect, what to do, and always available at anytime I needed to speak/discuss things with her. The day of the trial she observed the actions of the DA, trooper, and the presiding judge and adjusted her defense argument prior to our case. I'm very happy to not have hired a local attorney as all of those lawyers took whatever the DA offered and the judge agreed to without even putting up any defense argument. When my case was called, she made her argument in a professional, compassionate, and respectful manner. She was well prepared and had pulled similar cases from that specific courts docket for the last 6-12 months to display the pattern in front of their DA and judge. The judge was overloaded by everything that she did and ended up downgrading my Reckless driving ticket to a improper driving violation with NO points, NO license suspension, and NO jail time. After the case as we were waiting to pay the fine, the trooper who issued the ticket to me and 2 local attorneys came up to her and congratulated her for winning the case. I wholeheartedly without reservation recommend Andi Geloo for any legal matters so that you have the best chance for a favorable outcome. she is truly a miracle worker!!!!

Justice Andi Geloo

Mrs. Andi Geloo Esq. is the finest in criminal defense. Her professionalism and work ethic are nothing short of unprecedented. Andi came to my defense when an overzealous, forceful, and frankly unstable officer forced my vehicle to be towed for a reckless driving by speed charge, (89/55) on Dulles To...ll road. I was denied the opportunity to select my own tow company, and my brand new vehicle was damaged as a result. Andi took the time to listen to me and understand the details regarding my case. Ultimately, Andi used them as tools to get the misdemeanor charge amended to a lower infraction by speed (74/55). She also got my expired inspection tossed out/ nolle prosequi. I’d like to highlight that throughout the whole process Andi was always prompt, courteous, and eager to help. Andi took the upmost care for me. Like the other comments here, the manor she cares for you is honestly synonymous to the love a family member or best-friend would provide. I highly recommend her service, and would definitely hire her again. Five stars. *****

AMAZING!!!!!

If I could give 100 stars I would. ANDI is an amazing attorney. I just relocated to Virginia and was pulled over for reckless driving by speed and I was unaware of how serious of a situation this was. When I first spoke with Andi she wasted no time in getting the proper information over to me to set ...me up for success. Andi has always been professional and very personable towards me. She was always available with a response if I had any questions or concerns regarding my case. In result this made me very comfortable putting my life in her hands. To make a long story short because I could go on and on. When it was my court date she was able to have my reckless driving misdemeanor dropped to a speeding ticket (I was going pretty fast). I knew she cared because she had my best interest in heart and there were a lot more cases like mine that day and she was the only lawyer in my court room to not take the prosecutors deal. When we won she just as excited as me probably even a little more than me. That day I knew I made the best decision. Thank you Andi for being a great lawyer

Need a lawyer? Work with Andi

Andi is amazing at her job but what makes her special is how she is as a person. I trusted her to represent me for driving offence, despite me never meeting her in person. She's always there for you in the form of a email or phone call and genuinely shows real passion. No surprise she got the best re...sult possible for me. Keep up the good work Andi!

Best lawyer in the courtroom

I hired Andi Geloo for a Reckless Driving charge and Andi got it dismissed. Andi Geloo was the most kind and reassuring, yet confident and capable lawyer in the courtroom. I was honored to have her as my lawyer and highly recommend her to anyone. From the day I contacted her, her extensive communicat...ion and professionalism was more impressive than any other lawyer contacting us. She led me clearly through the process of what I needed to do, and constantly reassured me that I would be taken care of. I can never thank Andi enough and if you hire her, I'm sure you will feel the same.

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.
