Karin's background on the other side as a previous prosecutor gives her clients an extreme advantage other attorneys could not offer. Karin has the ability to see angles in your defense your average lawyer would not typically spot. Her existing professional relationships with judges, active prosecuto...rs and police allows her to gauge opportunities and provide the best outcome for your case. I, personally, had major charges against me associated with drug and illegal firearms caught dead to rights and that would have most likely resulted in a total of ten (10) years in prison and a never ending hole of debt to pay back the fines. During court Karin capitalized on a small window of opportunity and was able to get my drug charges dismissed and pay fees a tiny fraction of what could have resulted. I am extremely pleased with the out come and can only say she is worth more than what she costs.

The bottom line up front: hire Karin. She got my drunk in public case dismissed through discussions and negotiations with the prosecuting attorney the morning of my hearing before my court appearance. She obviously has great command of the system, the process, and relationships to deliver the best ou...tcome I could have hoped for through the dismissal. Her knowledge and expertise were obvious, as she advised me to collect evidence and document my defense to support my case. I would highly recommend Karin and would hire her again if needed.

Karin did an excellent job representing me on a charge of driving on a revoked DUI license. She explained the best strategy for addressing the violation with realistic alternative approaches to settling the charge. She also negotiated a best case final settlement with the District Attorney. She pr...epared the case very well so that we had our arguments and evidence ready.

I was arrested and charged in Virginia of both DWI and reckless driving. I was worried and did not feel very good about the possible outcome of the charges as Virginia takes speeding very seriously. Karin was a great help throughout the case and was able to find get me a favorable outcome with the ca...se. She was knowledgeable and clear in her explanations of what would happen, and I am very happy with the result.
