Attorney Seth Peritz has been a practicing Criminal Defense Attorney since 2016. Moving to the Northern Virginia Area after graduating from prestigious William and Mary Law School, he began his career working in a highly sought-after position with the Loudoun County Public Defender’s Office. In 2017, he left to become a private Criminal Defense Attorney at a small criminal defense and immigration firm. While representing criminal defendants on all types of charges, many of whom were noncitizen immigrants, he learned the importance of taking a holistic approach to representation, including understanding a client’s background, career, goals, family, community, and how a criminal charge impacts them individually.
In 2018, Matthew Crowley recruited Seth to work at a firm where he was the then Managing Partner of the Criminal Division. Seth began as an associate and quickly became the firm’s youngest Senior Attorney and a rising star. Seth exclusively represented clients in criminal defense cases, focusing mainly on DWI/DUI defense, drug cases, theft cases, domestic violence cases, and violent crimes.
In 2020, Matthew and Seth began Crowley Peritz Law. This allows them to represent fewer clients and focus on each case even more effectively. Seth genuinely enjoys working with each of his clients and getting to understand their goals. Seth’s sincere interest shows up not just in his courtroom results but in how much his clients like him and make personal referrals to him.

Great lawyer
Seth was my wife’s attorney in her petit larceny case. Seth was our guide to navigate through that exceptionally tough time. From the first day, Seth provided us with a clear action plan to get the best possible outcome. The case was dropped and he is now helping us on the record expungement proces...

Got a case? Choose Seth for best outcome!
If you hire Seth, which I recommend you do, he will always be available through text and call ( I personally preferred text.) His rates are VERY reasonable compared to other lawyers in the area, but I don't know them and I know Seth. He will explain literally every single detail that can be contested...
Vikrant, it was a pleasure working with you. I am glad to have been able to minimize the charges and consequences in your case.
"Seth Peritz really hustles for his clients. He has a ton of energy and uses it to vigorously defend his clients and fight for them in court, and be responsive to them when they need him. He is a knowledgeable and talented attorney."
"Mr. Peritz works hard for his client and is knowledgeable about the law and local courts. He is a valuable asset to the local criminal defense bar."
"Being a great criminal attorney requires the knowledge of how to build out a criminal defense. It’s not easy, it’s time consuming, and some of the work is meticulous and often behind the scenes. To do it, and do it consistently, you must be focused and committed to your client, pay attention to details and willing to do the small things which, in turn, add up to big things. Seth shows up everyday, in every case, and is wholeheartedly committed to the success of his clients. The results he’s achieved, the result published here, are but a small fraction of the satisfied clients that Seth has represented. He’s a tremendous talent, big brained, strong professional ethos that drives his commitment and the results you see here on AVVO. Your case, large or small, simple or complex, will be thoroughly explored, researched, thought-out, and presented to a prosecutor, judge or jury. That’s what great attorneys do - every time. Seth is a great attorney whom I proudly endorse."

"Whether you hire Seth for a criminal case or a civil action rest assured, you're hiring one of the hardest working attorneys in the business.
