Well rounded attorney!

Mr. Dycio is an outstanding lawyer. He helped me prepare for my court date for reckless driving, and did a great job getting the charges reduced (especially for what seemed to be a difficult case). Mr. Dycio knew exactly what to do, who to talk to, and how to keep me calm. After only a few hours, I w...as walking out of the courthouse without a misdemeanor conviction, all thanks to Mr. Dycio. I cannot recommend him enough.

Great service. Professional.

I contacted Dycio for legal counsel on 2 charges in Fairfax County: drunk in public and resisting arrest. While Dycio's firm is not the cheapest firm around, I do not feel like my money was poorly spent. He was successful in defending my 2 charges, getting one dropped and the other dropped after comp...leting some community service. Furthermore, after completion, the firm was successful in getting my record expunged. Overall I would definitely recommend Dycio's firm for legal counsel and representation. They were professional and stood by their word in defending my case. No funny business and at no time did I feel mis-represented or in the dark about anything. Great job!

DWI (2nd Offense) / Refusal (2nd Offense Defense

Mark is a true professional and expert. Mark defended me on a case within the last week which I was charged for a DWI (2nd Offense) as well as a Refusal (2nd Offense). Mark did a good job of articulating to me the process and challenges ahead. As I'm not a lawyer I certainly had the comfort and c...onfidence to sit back and let Mark work his magic. Through patience Mark was able to get my DWI (2nd offense) down to a DWI (1st offense) and the Refusal (2nd Offense) to a Refusal (1st Offense). As I continued to trust in Mark he recommended we take the charges to trial. During trial Mark was amazing. Challenging and pinpointing the incorrect procedures of the Arresting Officer. At the end of the day... Mark Dycio was able to have the DWI completely dismissed while only currently accepting a Refusal (which is civil and not criminal). NO jail time, no fine, no court costs. Afterward Mark was very confident that we could win an appeal against the Refusal. I trust Mark and truly respect this man for his legal knowledge and abilities. I will continue to fight on with Mark as we appeal my Refusal and I HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND MARK to anyone that needs legal representation. IF you want the BEST.... Mark is clearly the BEST!!!

Mark is the best lawyer in the Fairfax County area…bar none.

Mark is great. From when I got my consultation until the time i get my charge expunged, Mark is my guy. He kept me well informed all throughout the process while making sure he was well informed about my specific case. On what was supposed to be my third DUI felony offense, he initially dropped it do...wn to a misdemeanor 2nd offense DUI with a continuance...wouldn't give in to a guilty plea and continued again, and then while in trial, got my charge dropped down to a FIRST OFFENSE before GETTING THE CHARGE COMPLETELY DROPPED.

Knowledgeable and effective attorney that comes highly recommended!

Mark agreed to represent me in what I thought to be a pretty "open and shut" DUI case. On the day of court I was offered a deal to reduce potential jail time. Mark approached me with the deal, and then looked at me and said "we're going to trial, and we're going to win." Rather than agonize ov...er taking the plea or going to trial, I trusted Mark and followed his counsel. It was the best decision that I made regarding my case (or maybe second to engaging Mark for representation). Mark was successful in defending my case, and I was able to go home for the evening rather than spend that time in custody. Mark was solely responsible for that outcome, and for that I will be forever thankful. To be very honest, Mark may not be the lawyer of choice if you are looking for someone to hold your hand and coddle you through the process. However, if you are looking for a knowledge, aggressive, and most importantly an effective attorney, I think you would be wise to consider Mark. If faced with another need for representation in Virginia, my first call would be to Mark Dycio.
