Best lawyer in Fairfax

I’m glad I chose Jon to be my lawyer for my case, he reassured me throughout the whole process and I’m grateful for the outcome of my case! It ended with a dismissal. He truly is a lawyer you can have by your side, he is on top with communication. Thank you again Jon for all you have done.

Thankful Grateful Blessed!

I wasn’t sure who to go to for my situation. With my charges, it felt I was going to get the worst possible outcome that was going to affect my life and career moving forward. It started as a google search for “Criminal Defense Lawyer in Virginia”. I discovered Attorney Jon Katz, Fairfax Criminal ...Lawyer by first search result and from there on I felt that everything would be fine. I was fortunate to hire the Fairfax criminal defense lawyer, Jonathan Katz, and his team (Rachel and Abby) for my first experience with the justice system. Hiring Jon Katz was the best decision I ever made. I was facing assault and battery charges. Jon guides me through the whole process. Regardless of how nervous I was at times Jon reassured me that it’s going to go well. He and his team consistently communicated with me, keeping me informed at every step of the process, which provided a sense of security during a challenging time. I am grateful for him, his work on my case and with the outcome. My assault and battery criminal charges were dismissed. He and his team are very professional. The Jon Katz, PC Criminal Defense Lawyer firm exceeded my expectations in many ways. I would highly recommend him and his law firm. I give Jon Katz, Fairfax Criminal Lawyer, and his team (Rachel and Abby) 5 out of 5 stars for everything they have done. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to Mr. Jon Katz and his team for their outstanding work. I am forever thankful!

He's not afraid to push back against the prosecution!

I found Jon online while faced with the seemingly insurmountable legal battle ahead after my first DUI arrest in Virginia. From our first meeting, I could tell that Jon was eager to fight for me to get the best possible outcome considering my circumstances. We discussed in detail the case options, ap...proaches, and defense tactics from all angles which helped put my mind at ease, knowing that He knew the system and was ready to tackle my case. I retianed Jon and his team during my initial meeting because I did not feel that I could have found a better lawyer base on the evidence mounting in my case. During the next several months, Jon and I worked closely to built a strong defensive, working through his action plan and wading through the Court's process and a few delays. I was consistently updated on the case progress along with regulator communication and check-ups to make sure we were on track with the action plan. I sincerely appreciate how hard Jon and his assistant Rachel worked towards building the very best defense before trial. In the end I agreed to a comprised judgment which did include penalties. But those penalties were fair and ultimately the consequences that I deserved because of my DUI. The judgment could have been 10 times more severe, based on the Commonwealth's minimum penalties and my case evidence, but because of Jon's knowledge of the system and solid plan for defense, I am pleased with the overall outcome. I truly feel that if I had hired any other lawyer, I would be facing a more severe and lengthy penalty. Simply put, I made a mistake, I received the best case scenario penalty from the Judge and this could not have happened without Jon's representation. Thomas H

Thorough, understanding and a master at his craft.

I hired Jon Katz – a DUI and criminal lawyer based in Fairfax, Virginia – on the recommendation of a friend; best decision I ever made. I was scared and anxious because I had never been in this type of situation; I have a clean driving record but I blew .15 BAC in Maryland and received about 6 or so ...total tickets, including a DWI AND a DUI ticket. From our very first meeting I felt that I had made the right decision. He immediately gave me various HW to do. These HWs were anything from Victim Impact Panel classes to Driver Improvement classes and so on. At every stage of the way, Jon and his extraordinarily efficient office staff – Abby and Rachel – were there for me and I knew I was in good hands. On the day of the trial Jon was in his element as he strove to do the very best for me. And the outcome was truly amazing; he secured my acquittal from the DWI and DUI charges. I will forever be indebted to him; I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Jon Katz

Jon represented my daughter. My daughter had made a poor judgement call and was arrested. The first meeting it was apparent that there was zero judgement from Jon. He saw the case for what it was...my daughter is a good person who made a poor decision. He was able to ease her mind and when we wen...t to court he was able to get it reduced. He didn't want this mistake to affect her for years. I was very thankful for how he handled the case and my daughters anxiety. His professionalism and empathy was exactly what we needed.
