Hands down best criminal lawyer EVER!!!

Mrs. Graziella Bianchi is without a doubt the very best criminal lawyer I've ever come crossed!!! I was being charged with a very challenging felony and misdemeanor some years back. My situation wasn't the easiest though, at that time I was also in the process of obtaining legal status in this cou...ntry and being charged with those type of charges was a definite and clear way to deportation; at least that's what the two previous two lawyers said about my case, "there is no point of fighting the case" they said, I was doomed and I was going to return to a country a barely knew...But my family and I didn't want to accept it, and so we kept trying! and I'm glad we did ! One amazing Immigration lawyer referred her to us, and that's when everything changed for the better for me...The moment you walk into her office and start speaking to her, you realize this is no ordinary lawyer. As I finished telling her all about my case, a part of me thought that she was going to do the same as the previous lawyers and tell me it was a lost case...but no.. she listened, took a moment, and made some calls...after that, she told me that she was going to represent me, and although it was in fact a difficult case, I could just tell she believed in my case, but most importantly she believed in me, she believed I didn't deserve to get deported, and I deserved to stay here...Long story short, after multiple court visits before judge...I was finally free! (No, I wasn't in prison but my charges were dropped! and FREE was exactly how I felt!) and it was all thanks to Mrs. Bianchi, for all her hard work and dedication...I remember feeling so thankful to God for letting this amazing person represent me and not throw me out like the others did...Thanks to her I am now living my life here happily. THANK YOU AGAIN MRS. BIANCHI!! I cant stress that enough! You are truly an amazing, honest, caring, brilliant, and diligent lawyer! I wished there was many more like you! May God always bless you and your family!

She really knows what to do, highly recommend

She gave me a list of what to do before my court day, I followed all her instructions and the resoult was better than expected. I was speeding on a 55 zone and I was risking my license, she manage to reduce both the fine and the pints on my license

Posted by Jennifer | September 13, 2018 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

DWI charge - so happy to have Graziella

I was arrested for a DWI in the summer of 2017. Graziella was caring, supportive and 100% honest of my chances and what I needed to do to get through the charges. Graziella worked with me and the prosecutor to get me the best possible deal and to get the charges reduced as much as possible. I’m so gl...ad to have found Graziella and to have her representation, if you are in need of a lawyer in Arlington/Fairfax or nearby areas I highly recommend her!
