250+ 5-star reviews are well deserved. She should get 6!

Andi Geloo is an exceptional lawyer, and my experience with her surpassed all expectations. From the outset, Andi's warm and empathetic demeanor immediately reassured me. Throughout our correspondence via email and a Saturday phone call dedicated to addressing my concerns, she consistently demonstrat...ed her dedication to my case. Andi not only answered every query I had thoroughly and comprehensively but also went above and beyond by providing additional insights and suggestions to bolster my case. Upon hiring her, her responsiveness remained unparalleled, leaving me with no lingering doubts or uncertainties. Leading up to the court date, I meticulously followed her guidance, and on the day of the hearing, she was there as promised, offering unwavering support. In the end, Andi achieved an outcome that far exceeded my expectations. Reflecting back, it's still surreal to comprehend that she got my reckless speeding over 85 mph down to a non-moving violation and zero point offense. I am immensely grateful for Andi's expertise, professionalism, and genuine care throughout this process. Without hesitation, I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of legal representation.

Complete Faith.

Andi Geloo came highly recommended and believe me, she did not disappoint. Andi was a found treasure! I was fortunate to have found Andi - extremely knowledgeable in her field, personable and friendly attitude and superb work ethic. She was forthright in providing the best and worst case scenarios of... my case. One never really can foresee the outcome of any particular court case, but I can sincerely testify that Andi gave over 100% to my issue. My outcome was completely positive and in my favor and I give credit, first to God, and then to Andi for allowing herself to be the vessel that carried me through this “less than happy occasion.” I have never spoken with an attorney that was as compassionate, gracious and kind as Andi. From my experience, I would say that she operate with heart and dedication. I truly believe that my case could easily have had a very different resolution had someone else taken the case. In this day and age, it is very rare to receive such quality service. She is a very humble attorney and what I mean by that is that she made herself accessible ALWAYS, returned calls promptly, assured me that she would help in whatever way she could…THEN…she followed through in a very timely manner. What a refreshing attorneys to do business with! I would and will refer her to anyone who is in need of legal services. May God continue to bless her and her efforts. Thank you so very much.

Andi is the best, hands down!

There is not enough space in this format nor can I find the words to adequately express my gratitude. Andi represented me on a reckless driving -by speed, charge on 4/5/2016. If convicted, this charge can result in pretty substantial penalties including jail time which we all know has a disastrous im...pact on your public record and in some cases, employment. From the beginning Andi was prompt, extremely responsive, honest about the entire situation, and forthcoming with tools that I could access in order to assist her in advocating for me. Overall she is very professional and will go out of her way for her clients. What truly captured me is her level of honesty and integrity, and this goes a long way. God forbid I ever find myself in a jam such as this one again, but I can assure you that I would call her again without hesitation. I followed each of the steps Andi suggested and she was able to have my case dismissed. Reply

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

A Great Lawyer!

I was charged with reckless driving for 86 in a 70. Having never before faced the possibility of a criminal record, I was pretty upset. I called a number of lawyers who mostly just sent me form-letter emails with their fee structure. However, when I spoke to Andi, I immediately felt like I was tal...king with someone who was competent, empathetic and confident that she could help. When we finished that conversation, I knew I was done looking for a lawyer. I had a plan and a checklist of things I could proactively do to help my case. Andi was always available when I had questions or concerns. She will reply to your emails and she will return your phone calls, usually the same day. She is always professional. But the most important thing is the result: I walked out of court with my charge having been reduced to a mere speeding infraction of 79 in a 70, and a $100 fine. I could not have been happier with that result. I strongly recommend Andi Geloo.

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.
