Mr Dycio without a doubt is the best lawyer I have ever retained. I was accused by the commonwealth for a variety of criminal and traffic matters that if found guilty would seriously hinder my career and studies. Mr Dycio from our initial meeting left no doubt in my mind that I was in good hands. I c...onsulted with multiple lawyers before meeting with Mr Dycio, some asking almost double what he asked for the same cases. I was not at all looking for a good deal, but for the best attorney. I had been told by many people of Mr Dycios reputation as the best; Mr Dycio personifies everything you expect from an attorney, he will not sugar coat anything, he will not hold your hand. Although he may not be easy to get a hold of, everyone in his office are extremely pleasant to deal with, and ensure messages reach Mr Dycio, he reaches back out personally very promptly. Every question I had for Mr Dysio was answered correctly and professionally, however always with an undertone of "let me do my job" and that is truly all you need to do. Pay Mr Dysio, and sit back. Mr Dysio represented me for 4 cases, and got 4 dismissals. I will never hire another attorney again. Mr Dysio is a legend in the court house, and rightfully so.

Mark Dycio is a fighter and one of the most well connected and well prepared defense attorneys in Northern Virginia. I was arrested for 1st time DUI with what I saw as an open and shut case. BAC was .014 with no prior arrests. Mark was straightforward and upfront on all possible outcomes. He was clea...r on the process and his price and did not pull punches. He will not be the attorney to "hold your hand" through the process but you can rest assured he is working your case diligently during the process. On the trial day, it was clear he understood the process and people involved in prosecuting the case. He knew what to do and when do it and executed my defense flawlessly. While I thought my case was hopeless, his expertise and experience lead to a not guilty verdict. My inexperience in these matters ensured I could not have defended myself in any meaningful manner. The best money spent was hiring Mark. While we never expect our lives to upended like this, most people make mistakes. Mark is there to provide guidance, counsel, and support to ensure your rights as a citizen are protected and he is the best in the business. I would recommend Mark to anyone in need of legal counsel for any reason. He is pitbull when it comes to fighting for his client's rights and due process. Retaining his counsel was one of the best decisions I have ever made. When all seems lost he is there to fight for you and will do the same to all of his clients.

In the beginning of this year my life has turned upside down due to a DUI charge. I have never thought I would be in a position like this and it was the worst experience I have ever faced. I have never got in trouble with the law until my charge and I pray to never be in a position like this again. W...ith intensive research and learning of the seriousness of my charge I did not realize how major this crime is. As I began to search for lawyers to defend me in court, Mark Roman Dycio was the first name to pop up and I began to review his credentials. After reading through all the reviews I was certainly impressed and decided to contact him for a free consultation. I have also interviewed two other lawyers but was not very confident in thier response. I have received different feedback from all 3 lawyers but by far Mr. Dycio response was the most confident. Since I am a college student with not much income, money is very tight for me. Mr. Dycio's quote was a bit high for me compared to the other two lawyers so it was a difficult choice for me to make. So after a couple of days of deciding which lawyer to choose, I decided to go with my gut instinct which was Mr. Dycio and by far the BEST DECISION I have EVER MADE in my life. He was also very generous in working with me on a payment plan taking into consideration of my financial status. Mr. Dycio might come across to some as rude and arrogant but in this business that is exactly what is needed in this line of work. From the beginning, Mr. Dycio was very straight to the point and does not have time for BS. He will not hold your hand and baby you throughout this process so don't expect to be pampered. He tells you as it is and is very straight forward having dealt with this process countless times. Throughout the process, while nervously awaiting my trial date, the only flaw i would say is that there was not much communication from him with the status on my case. He has just told me to arrive to court on trial date, and to sit and wait for him. With being extremely depressed and worrying about the consequences which could greatly affect my future if not given a positive outcome, unlucky for me, my trial date was right in the middle of finals week for school. It was very difficult for me to keep focus on school with my case on the back of my mind. On the day of my trial I arrive to court on time and at the location directed. I meet with Mr. Dycio and he briefly explains to me the next step of the process. He then asks me why I'm so quite and i tell him its because of how nervous I am. He then told me to sit back and relax and wait for him for further directions. With no way of relaxing even with his supreme confidence, I nervously sit thinking of all the possible outcomes and was not sure of what's to lie in front of me. As time slowly passes, I suddenly see Mr. Dycio walking towards me. He then asks me how I'm feeling and I respond " the same very nervous". He then ask me with these exact words from his mouth " What do you get when you hire the BEST lawyer in town". Me being speechless and without a second to intake his question, he then say's " Your case is DROPPED so sign this paper and your good to go". At that instant I was so ecstatic that words can't even describe how I was feeling. All my worries have dropped and I have been given a second chance to breathe and live life normally again. I shook Mr. Dycio hand and could not even express how greatly I appreciated him. I am truly grateful for everything Mr. Dycio has done and he was worth every single penny. I have truly learned a life awakening lesson and this was by far the worst experience and the most expensive mistake of my life. For anyone in the need of legal help I HIGHLY recommend Mark Roman Dycio to represent you in your situation. He is truly a great man and with his supreme confidence and superior intellect and knowledge he will fight to bring you the BEST possible results.

I am only writing this so others can make an unbiased opinion. Unlike what others may have stated, my experience with this firm has been terrible. Mark may be a good Attorney for DUI and other Traffic related offenses but for handling Criminal Defense he is definitely not the man, besides being ex...pensive and making wrong excess charges you never agreed to and were not aware of he is not out there for you in these matters. Mark Dycio of course is the first person to come meet and talk with you up until you have made all the payments. After you have made your payments, his role ends, he rarely responds to emails and is unaware of what is going on with your case. A few days before your case is to come up for hearing Mark will send out an email letting you know that something has come up either with his parents or his wife or kids and that he will not be in Court and one of his juniors, he refers to as partners, will be there in Court to represent you. This so called partner will email you a couple of days before the Court Date asking you to come into their office the day before the Court Date to discuss the case and that is all the time they will spend and they, his juniors, will decide what the best plea you would possible get even before the trial and will tell you that to set your low expectations in advance. They thrust it down your throat, what they want to do and what they want YOU to do. Not what is right or what should be done. They don't care whether you are going to be jailed or if your life will become miserable after that, no, they just don't care and all they care about is money which they have already pocketed. So yes, I am sure others who have dealt with this firm have had similar experiences. The difference might be in the expectations already set with the clients which probably left them happy. But for me I am knowledgeable in law but do not have a law degree so I hired them but they just did not do the right thing. First promising to represent me and a few days before the Court date telling me he was not available and assigning a junior to represent me leaving me dry, was not an ethical thing in my opinion to do by Mark Dycio. I just wish Mark Dycio had been more open from the beginning telling me he would not be able to represent me and one of his firm's attorney's instead would represent me, giving me an opportunity to choose between this firm or seeking out another attorney, instead of telling me at the last minute and leaving me without options to consider another attorney more experienced who would have gotten me the results I really deserved.

Mark Dycio, Esq. used to be well know as a very effective defense attorney. However, over the past few years many of his clients have received inferior representation from him and have gone elsewhere, myself included. He offs his cases now to his junior lawyers and pushes clients to accept the first ...plea bargain he gets whereas in the past he would have fought tooth and nail for a dismissal. He just no longer has any real fight left in him. The last time I used him I was quoted one rate but when the bill arrived it was not what he said it would be but rather a considerable amount more. When I asked him about it HE LIED and said he told me what it would be when he said no such thing. I've since used another lawyer for representation and the difference was apparent right away in both billing and the fight to win the case. I wish I had reviews like this one to rely on before I used Dycio in the first place. I certainly know better now.
