Karen saved my future career as a lawyer!

I was in my last year of law school and in the top 15% of my class when my wife called the police and had me arrested and charged with both domestic violence and obstructing a 9-1-1 call, two misdemeanors that could have destroyed my chances of being admitted to the bar. Karen knew exactly what to d...o to persuade the prosecutor to drop the charges and have everything expunged from my record. I could not be more pleased with her expertise and performance.

Karin's 6th sense in Court

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.

Need an excellent defense attorney? Look no further.

As an out of state driver, when I was charged with speeding while visiting family in Fairfax, I knew that I would need help. Karin was one of several lawyers that I considered retaining. During my free consultation I could tell that she would be the best defense attorney to work with. Every defen...se attorney I spoke with highlighted that - beyond the law and the facts of the case - the outcome would also be influenced by the people involved (e.g., the Officer, Prosecutor, Judge, etc.). Karin is a former prosecutor for the Commonwealth of Virginia - and so her network and deep understanding of the people involved was incredibly helpful to me. Beyond that, Karin is everything you would expect from your attorney: attentive, responsive, thoughtful, and tough (in a good way). I am very pleased with the outcome of my case and thankful to Karin for her support. I would absolutely recommend her for your defense needs!

Professional, competent, amazing!

I was recently defended by Karin in a criminal defense case. As a medical professional I had a lot on the line. Needless to say any kind of charges or arrest records would have jeopardized my professional licensure. Karin's cool, calm and collected approach instantly put my nerves at ease. During the... months leading to my trial, she was no less than fabulous. She was very responsive to my phone calls and answered all of my questions. I was fortunate to have her represent my case. My charges were dropped and I am eligible for an expungement. A situation that could have done irreparable harm to my career is now just a bad memory. When you hire Karin you are buying peace of mind and that is worth every cent. I would not hesitate to recommend her services to a friend or family member.
