Hunter A Whitestone

I Got a 2ND DUI in Fairfax County within 10 Years on 28th Oct 2015 My BAC was .16 And the video was very Sad Hunter Helped me Drop My DUI to First and let me keep a restricted License for a year instead of 3 years I was Going To get 20 days in jail and he was very prompt in Submitting my applicati...on for Home arrest . I was transferred To PRC The next day and Finally got my home arrest. I Only stayed In General Population One Night He Is a very good attorney and I strongly recommend him to any one who might need help. His Fee is Not as High as some others I have consulted. He and his team are worth every Dollar

DUI Dismissied/ Reckless Dismissed/ Hit and Run reduced to a fine.

I recently received a hit and run along with a reckless driving charge and a DUI charge. The officer was pissed but he was still very professional. I was out on bond. I hired Hunter. He reviewed my case and accepted to represent me. It was a bit expense but worth every dollar. I have no prior records... and I was really scared I was gonna do some jail time and destroy my record. I cannot begin to describe what he did. All charges were nolle prosequi and for the hit and run, I only paid a fine. I recommend this attorney. It's true that it gets frustrating because he does not communicate too much but one thing is for sure he gets the job done. This is the go to attorney.

DWI 2nd with refusal, reduced to DUI 1st with no jail time. No one saw this coming

I was charged with a DWI 2nd and a refusal to do the breathalyzer. I thought I was done for. Hunter came in and was able to get the refusal charge dismissed and got the DWI 2nd reduced to a DUI 1st. All jail time suspended. I did not go to jail. I guess this is a chance for me to open my eyes and imp...rove my life. All the other lawyers, I had met, told me that I was done for and I was going to go in jail for at least 10 days for the DWI 2nd and 30 days for the refusal and I had to get prepared for that. I feel that Hunter could have gotten both charges dismissed if I decided to go to trial but with my current situation I could not risk going to jail for even a day. So I took the deal he workout for me and quite frankly I was proud of him to pull this type of strings. The police officer was very docile and friendly around hunter which shows the old adage still lives. "A good lawyer knows the law, but a great lawyer knows the prosecutor and the judge." I definitely recommend Hunter Whitestone. Take my word for it. He may seem quite and calm but that is just his style as I truly think he is an introvert but don't mistake that for weakness as my father always said a great man never talks the talk but walks the walk and that is what I needed in a lawyer.
