excellent representation

Karin was wonderful from start to finish. She was always honest dependable, and reliable. She gives her clients the feeling as if she truly cares about helping them and she is not just in it for the money.

Relieved Client

Karin was extremely helpful in dealing with my DWI case. She kept me informed throughout the process and was always on-call to answer any questions I had, even after the trial was over. Her knowledge of the process and experience in Arlington courtrooms were tremendous assets for me and my family. I... trusted her judgement completely and given the circumstances of my case, I am confident that she got the best result possible.

Truth Seeker

Karen Riley Porter has the characteristics of a Truth Seeker. I was cited for a traffic violation for 90/55MPH in Fairfax, County; allegedly. With her outstanding interpersonal, motivational and presentation skills. Her core competencies; analytical, articulate and diligent throughout the proceedings..., resulting in a FULL DISMISSAL of the case. I would recommend this lawyer; Karen Riley Porter, to EVERYONE! Overall, Excellent and FULLY EXPERIENCED!!!!

Good experience for a bad time

Having to retain a lawyer should never be on anyone's "to-do" list. If there is a situation where you HAVE to retain one, Ms. Riley Porter is an excellent choice. She is responsive, and listens to your situation thoroughly and never once did I feel I made a bad decision or she was not looking out f...or my best interests. She fought strong for me and made sure I was dealt with fairly by the court system when it was clear I was not. She is truly a good person and a good lawyer to have on your side.

Best, Brightest, Hardest Working and Most Glamourous Defense Attorney in Northern VA!

Karin has been my lawyer for the better part of two years. She is hard working and very dedicated to my case. Initially I hired her because she physically fit the bill for what I was looking for in a defense attorney - beautiful, well dressed, seemed smart, appeared to be a go-getter, etc.... Once ...I really got to know and trust her I understood that she was all of that, for sure, but also she is truly dedicated to my defense. I cannot even imagine how many hours she put into my case. I know she was working day and night and on weekends and even when on vacation. She is the first attorney I've had to hire to defend me and I truly believe that I struck gold finding her. I cannot say enough nice things about the work she did for me. I also appreciated how she knew when to laugh with me, when to give me a "get a grip" reality check, and when to be consoling. I hope to never need defense legal services again, but if I do she will be the first person I call. As my case has come to an end, I am actually sad to not have her as a daily part of my life. If you or anyone you know is in need of the BEST criminal defense, I would highly recommend Karin Porter.
