DUI

Karin is an awesome attorney. She is extremely knowledgeable on the law, well-prepared, and is a pleasure to work with. I could not have been happier with the outcome of my case. She was able to get the DUI reduced to a Reckless Driving, the Reckless Driving reduced to Speeding, and have the Refusal ...dropped completely in a deal with the prosecutor. I highly recommend Karin to anyone looking for a top criminal defense attorney in Virginia.

Reckless Driving Ticket and Court Hearinf

Received a reckless driving ticket on the Dulles toll road going 81mph in a 55mph. It was the first ticket I have ever received. Being from out of state, I was very unfamiliar with Virginia's driving laws but knew I needed a lawyer since I was charged with a misdemeanor. After doing some research, I ...decided on hiring Karin Porter to represent me. She was very efficient and professional throughout the whole process, and lead to my charge being reduced to a simple ticket, a $100 fine, and 4 points off my license. She already had a plea deal arrganed with prosecutor when we met outside the court room and I was out of there in no time. Would definitely recommend Karin to anyone having to deal with a reckless driving ticket.

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.

This is the lawyer you want!

Karin Riley Porter is the lawyer you want on your side to represent you. I chose Karin because she knows the law, is a strategic thinker, professional, and has a human touch. I had four consultations with different lawyers before retaining her. She displayed keen knowledge coupled with heart for her ...client that breeds trust. That combination is what convinced me. I knew during our in-person meeting, before leaving her office, that I would retain her. I was beyond pleased with the strategy she recommended that got me the outcome I was hoping for. Look no further, I highly recommend her!

Outstanding!!! Have hired again.

Outstanding! Always prepared! Detailed! Communicates well! Very personable! Did the what-if analysis. Righted- an injustice. Based on her abilities, I have asked her to aid in other unrelated matters.
