I was represented by Ms. Karin Porter on a traffic-related matter. I was extremely pleased with her professionalism, responsiveness, and with the outcome. She responds to e-mail immediately, which gives me a sense that she really cares for my case. She gave me wonderful advice on what I should do to... help my case and reduce the charge, which she was able to do. I highly recommend Ms. Porter.

Look no further!!! I couldn't be more happier with my outcome of my case. I got pulled over around the Pentagon and on Federal Property for turning from wrong lane. I was asked to step out and do the field sobriety tests which I didn't do so great on. I was arrested for DWI (second within 10 year...s) and Refusal. I spoke to another lawyer before reaching out to Mrs. Karin and that lawyer made me feel worse and more depressed. After contacting her office they took my information and said Mrs. Karin charges extra and will only take your case if she's available. I was okay with that. Mrs. Karin reached out to me the next day and went over my case with me. She had already gathered all the information regarding my case, and explained all my options to me. After speaking with her I felt so much better and more confident, she made me feel like I had a chance. We went to court 2 and a half weeks after my offense date for my Preliminary hearing and she was able to get my Refusal Charge and Traffic Violation dropped and DWI amended to reckless driving. 2 and a half weeks!!! Her experience as a prosecutor, her confidence and approach makes her one of the best lawyers I have ever come across. She was worth every single dollar that she charged.

She represented me in 2 misdeamnor cases. One was dropped at I risk hearing because they didn’t have a case at all. She negotiated the second to be dropped down to a minor violation of an ordinance. She responded within minutes/hours when I had questions or wanted to send strategy ideas which I appre...ciate greatly. I decided to retain her for civil case as well. I am happy to recommend her. Good luck with your case.

A cut above the rest -- if you're interested in giving yourself the best chance of winning, look no further/hire Ms. Porter. I had heard great things, and set the bar high as a result, yet somehow Ms. Porter's performance in the courtroom, overall knowledge, commitment to and communication with he...r clients far exceeded my expectations. Most importantly, though, she wins/attains the best possible result. Not getting into details, but I got the best result possible. Not only that, she even found a circuit court case that was very similar/applied to my case. Of course no one "expects" to win, and everyone's case/situation is different, so take what I wrote with a grain of salt. But Ms. Porter will give you the greatest chance to get the best possible result, and if you're attempting to defend yourself (rather than settling for a plea), then that's what you want to shoot for. Meeting with her a few times leading up to my court date helped calm me down/destress me a bit, which I really appreciated. She won't placate you (which is good), but she will give you an honest and insightful take as to what you can expect in court. I was actually in awe as I watched her defend me in court. Her passion for justice, commitment to her clients and overall knowledge of the law+court system is why she's one of the best in the business.

After receiving a speeding violation from Arlington County, I decided to obtain legal representation. I was searching for someone with a great legal reputation and personable to represent me in the legal proceedings. After careful consideration and due diligence, I decided to obtain Ms. Porter. What ...I wanted was the best legal defense possible. Ms. Porter from the start instructed me to complete (3) specific requirements for the court summon. Ms. Porter was very professional and knowledgeable in the Arlington County court proceedings. Being very well prepared helped Ms. Porter to negotiate with both the officer and the district attorney. The Arlington County speeding violation was amended to defective equipment, which is not a moving violation. If I should ever need future legal representation in Virginia, Ms. Porter would be the 1st on my list to hire.
