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.

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.

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!

Facing frightening, embarrassing, and unfamiliar legal options, attorney Karin Porter and her office handled my case objectively and professionally. I was very happy with the outcome of my case, and owe it to her guidance, experience, and advocacy. I can recommend her to anyone in need of a fighting ...chance before the courts.
