professional and pleasant

I found Karin Porter to be extremely professional and pleasant. She and the firm guided me through the process of handling my speeding citation.

Very professional and an easy recommendation

I had a reckless driving and 30+ mph speeding ticket in Virginia. I spoke with and met Karin to discuss and found her to be very knowledgeable about the issue and honest about what to expect during the process. She explained the steps I should take prior to the court date and always responded to my... questions promptly. In court, she got the reckless dismissed and I had only a $75 fine for the other ticket. I am glad that I had her as my attorney and would recommend her and her firm to anyone.

Great lawyer helped me through a difficult time

Karin's advice was critical in the positive and just outcome I had in dealing with a false accusation. She kept me from making mistakes that would have made the situation worse and kept me updated about what to do and how to deal with all of it. I'm sure it would have been much worse without her!

Excellent Lawyer, My Lawyer for Life!!

Karin is smart and worked through the entire strategy. I had two misdemeanor charges which were both were dropped for an amended minor disorderly charge. She already knew the way the prosecutor was going to think with possible outcomes and scenarios. She had a conference with the prosecutors and conv...inced them they didn’t have much and what I was willing to concede (which wasn’t much). She was confident if we went to trial we would win and I think they knew that. They settled on the amended disorderly which she knew would still qualify for expungement. Six months later we go in for expungement and within 2 mins the prosecutor agreed to expunge the original charges and so did the judge. She saved my life and career as well embarrassment. Hire her, her representation is worth every penny.

Great Experience

Ms. Porter worked with me on my DWI charge from day one. She provided guidance starting from the time I called as I was being released the morning after the arrest through my appearance before the Judge. She explained the seriousness of the charge and the sentencing guidelines if found guilty. She he...lped me plan everything I needed to do before court. By not setting unrealistic expectations, I was able to better focus on preparing for the worst case scenario. By following her guidance, I was able to have everything in place prior to the Court Date. This preparation helped present me to the Prosecutor in a much better light. Her guidance and her being available anytime I had a question, reduced my level of anxiety. She was able to have my charge reduced which is helping me get on with my life. I feel that she not only took an interest in the case but also in me. She helped me through a very difficult situation.
