Jad Sarsour is a great lawyer. He was not only professional and set my mind at ease but he immediately had me feeling confident that I was going to win my case. He was well prepared and made the prosecution seem like it was their first case. He immediately noticed a mistake on the prosecution’s case ...and had the charge thrown out. The prosecutor argued and the judge actually went to his chambers to review if the prosecutor made a mistake. The judge came back within 5 min and ruled that the Prosecutor was at fault and the charge was thrown out. I could not believe how quickly he got the charge dismissed which made for one super happy client and one very upset prosecutor. If you want to hire an experienced, well rounded, and prepared lawyer hire Jad Sarsour. I felt like I had the dream team in my corner. He was great!!

I recently retained Jad's services to represent me in a possession of drug paraphernalia case. I was attempting to have the case continued due to a last minute work conflict but unfortunately was unable to do so because I did not call the court 48 hours in advance. Jad had less than 24 hours to prepa...re for my case and worked nothing short of a miracle in that amount of time. I ended up getting the possession charge dropped and pled guilty to a minor traffic violation and $200 fine. When the paperwork came across the judge's desk, he shook his head in apparent disbelief of such a substantial decrease in charges. It was almost comical to watch. I would highly recommend Jad's services to anyone who finds themselves in a legal jam and needs excellent representation.

Like most people when I found myself looking for representation I was concerned about spending lots of money for someone that would simply go through the motions. From our first meeting Jad Sarsour was a straight shooter, no promises of unrealistic goals but rather assurance that he would do everythi...ng in his power to represent me the best he could. As the weeks went by I started to have buyer’s remorse mostly because I was unfamiliar with how long the process can take. It wasn't until the day of the hearing that I got to see exactly what I had paid for. Jad's arguments were well thought out and strategically executed as if he was playing a game of chess. Needless to say the day ended in dismissal. Even after the dismissal I was impressed with the level of commitment Jad showed with aspects I thought I would have to deal with on my own. It's hard to find people these days with real follow-through, Jad clearly has it. In case its not obvious based on my review I HIGHLY recommend Jad Sarsour.

I rated Jad Sarsour at five stars and rated him Excellent in every category because he did exactly what he told me he would do. This was the first time I'd hired a lawyer, so I was hesitant but I didn't want to risk the consequences if the ridiculous charge wasn't dropped. It could have effected my p...rofessional licenses not to mention business contracts, etc. Due to frustration with a different Law Firm, I spoke with Jad at the last minute, as in 4:30 p.m. the day before my 9:30 a.m. Court date. He informed me that, while he could not guarantee the result I was looking for, he felt confident that he could get the Class 2 traffic misdemeanor I was being charged with dropped and reduced to a few lesser fines. This was exactly what I had hoped for as a best case scenario. He was very knowledgeable of the Fairfax County Court, the prosecution, as well as the Officer involved. He even described exactly what the Officer looked like just from his name, and shared his opinion of him, which was very accurate.... Without knowing I had talked to other attorneys, he warned me that they would charge me a lot more money, (3 x's his fee, actually) tell me I had to be there physically (even though I live 10 hours away), and generally try to scare me to death. He was dead on the money. That's exactly what they had already done. Furthermore, I half expected a continuance which any attorney could easily use as a means of making more money as it would require another attorney fee, but was pleasantly surprised to find that everything was handled on the same day for a very reasonable fee. (I couldn't have made the trip for the amount I paid him) In the end, I was able to pay my fines and move on with my life. Jad is a no-nonsense straight shooter, who was willing to aggressively stand up for my side of the story and was not intimidated by the prosecutor or the angry and unreasonable officer, which is exactly the kind of attorney YOU want to represent you. Jad called me immediately after court to tell me my results and I appreciated that. Based on my personal experience, I highly recommend Jad Sarsour and FirstPoint Law Group, in Northern Virginia and the DC area.

The first time I met with Mr. Jad Sarsour I knew that he would be the one attorney that would salvage my case and clear my name. I had never committed a crime in my 57 years and had a clean record until I was falsely charged with felony domestic violence. My first attorney brought my case through sev...eral court proceedings in the previous 4 months with each step costing me more money and little evidence of progress. Although Mr. Sarsour did not have access to the complete file on my case, he was quickly able to build a strong argument by reviewing the most pertinent information on file and by a thorough interview with me. In a single, brief meeting with the Commonwealth Attorney, he presented my case and was able to get the charge dismissed and my record completely cleared. This was despite my having wasted valuable time with my first attorney leaving Mr. Sarsour only 2 weeks to get up to speed and prepare his argument, getting my case dismissed just 3 days before the jury trial date. I found him to be very forthcoming as he answered every question I asked and kept me fully informed about every new development, explaining the significance of the more obscure legal points. I believe that Mr. Sarsour is well on his way to building a stellar career in criminal law and that he is a superstar in the making.
