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.

Expert representation for teen marijuana possession

Ms. Porter was excellent. Our son was arrested for possession of marijuana found in his vehicle parked at night on school property in Fairfax county. This was a first offense and she told us exactly what to do. We followed her instructions and she presented our case to the prosecutor and the case ...was dismissed and eligilble for expungement! We are beyond thrilled. We would definitely hire her again. She is a class act and also made our son and us feel very confident in her abilities. We showed up on the trial day and she took care of the rest. Thank you Karin!

Possession charge

My daughter is from out of state and while visiting Virginia was charged with possession. I hired Karin to defend her and could not be happier with the results. From the first free consultation to the goodbye after the court date, Karin was very professional yet has a personal way about her that wa...s very comforting to us. She clearly knows the law and the process very well and had a few creative ideas on how to potentially get the charges dismissed. Ultimately my daughter did not want to fight the charges and yet Karin was able to get the charge reduced and settled for a very reasonable fine. The outcome was much better than we had expected.

Best Criminal Attorney!!

Mrs. Porter was professional and very knowledgeable of my situation (2nd possesion of marijuana). When I met her, she had a gracious and positive attitude as well as made me feel like I was her only client. What also impressed me was that she was prepared with a map of the area where the traffic sto...p occured, the officer's information and legal research before I walked in her office. She will get you the best result! I'm happy for the result in my case as it was DISMISSED with community service and gracious to have had her as my attorney.
