Great lawyer!

Mr. Carlos Wall is an excellent professional. He took my case for reckless driving. Charges were dropped. The case was dismissed. Recommend him to anyone who is looking for representation. Truly, he did a great job!

Mr. Wall is an excellent lawyer. He provided me with guidance to prepare for my case and successfully defended me. I will always recommend him or Mr. Gordon.

An amazing man, and even greater attorney

In all my life I have never been happier to write a positive review for someone. Please believe me when I say Carlos is the best attorney in the East Coast. Twice I've found myself in situations that I thought I had no chance of getting out of. I couldn't sleep or eat without stressing and thinking a...bout what would happen if I was convicted of the charges being brought against me. And guess what? This man made both of them go away. The thing I love most about Carlos is he doesn't give the impression that you're simply a business transaction like some lawyers do, he truly cares about you. Without trust in the relationship, you have nothing. I trust this man with my life, and just talking to him made me feel so much better. He's reassuring, always maintains a positive attitude, and is extremely intelligent. Seeing him work was a pleasure, and gratifying; he's an outstanding lawyer. Please if you ever find yourself in need of a lawyer, do yourself a huge favor and hire Carlos. He will do everything in his power to help you, which is all you can ask. Having someone in your corner who will give their all and never give up is priceless. The funny thing is, I literally never write reviews, but I couldn't wait to write this one. It's truly hard to put in words how grateful I am that I had Carlos on my side, please do yourself a favor and hire him.

Best Defense Attorney on the East Coast

I was charged with three criminal offenses that could of landed me in jail for a while, and a subsequent traffic offense related to the first three. My charges were possession with intent to distribute marijuana, and possession with intent to distribute meth amphetamine, and contributing to the delin...quency of a minor. I first met Mr.Wall while incarcerated at Fairfax County Jail. I was taken back by his young appearance and age but even more so in his knowledge of the legal system and his credentials. It was clear to me really quickly that when it came to defense attorneys(ive dealt with quite a few in the past) he was the cream of the crop. My legal battle lasted for over a year and I've been to court over the same charges over 5-6 times. The first time we went to court it was regarding the contribution charge. I was more then pleased when Mr.Wall managed to get the charge dismissed the first time we went in. The other two weren't so easy but throughout the whole ordeal he kept reassuring me that he would get me the best outcome and that everything would be ok in the end. I will admit i was very skeptical because i felt the prosecution had more then enough to go on to convict me. To make a long story short, after numerous trips to the court and back, i was given a plea deal for possession of paraphernalia and one of the charges dropped, along with the traffic infraction as well. I couldn't believe it because that deal carried no jail time, probation time, or loss of license but a simple $250 fine. He fought hard for me from the beginning and his constant reassurances put my mind at ease every time we were in court. Its safe to say Mr.Wall saved my life. I would highly recommend him to anyone at all, no matter what charges they are facing. Thank you sir for you hard work and dedication to getting me the best deal possible.

Confident and competent

Carlos represented me at a reckless driving case recently and I couldn't be more pleased with his service. Among the 6 lawyers I consulted, he was the only one that offered, with reasonable confidence, to aim to reduce the charge to failure to pay full time and attention, which is the most lenient ou...tcome that carries no point and no record, in contrast with the 6 point, 7-year record offense that'd come with reckless driving. And that's exactly what he delivered. All other lawyers I consulted either shied away from even mentioning the possibility for the most lenient ruling or thought that'd not be probable, and instead would shoot for a 3-point/3 year record verdict of improper driving. The latter would be similar to an outcome I'd likely have been able to attain had I represented myself in court, given the nature of the incident. I'm impressed by Carlo's confidence and integrity in trying his best and looking out for the client's best interest. I'll be recommending Carlos to anyone I know looking for legal representation.

"I strongly endorse Carlos Wall of the Gordon Law Firm. Whenever I have conflicts which require me to be in a different Court, Mr. Wall is the first lawyer I call upon to assist me. I completely trust him cover for me in a professional manner. I also have great respect for the effort which Mr. Wall puts into defending his clients in Court. He has no fear when it comes to taking difficult cases to trial and I have often seen him come away with outstanding results. Carlos is an excellent criminal lawyer, with particular skill in traffic and DUI matters."

"Carlos is the most impressive DWI lawyer I know and I have seen many DWI lawyers in action. Carlos has a great combination of aggressiveness, poise, intelligence, and creativity which he brings to bear on behalf of each of his clients. With these gifts, more often than not, Carlos gets great outcomes for his clients. He gets acquittals when it would have seemed impossible to most observers just prior to trial. I wholeheartedly endorse this lawyer."
