Very competent

I have known Tom for 12 years. He first represented me pro bono on a robbery charge when I was 18. He has represented me on violations and other charges over the years. I have hired him and have gotten my closest friend to use his services because I trust him. Yes here talks about his swing dance. A...lso about his children and wife. His college years too. He talks and treats people as friends and I consider him one. When it comes time to work, Tom works his ass off. He uses his connections within the prosecutors office as well as personal connections with judges to make sure its personal going into that court room. He makes sure that they are looking at you as a human being. I highly recommend Tom represent you.

Best of the best.

Mr .Koerner was very understanding of my case, he was very easy to deal with meaning he explained my case in full detail he also guided me through every step. Mr. Koerner was always accessible via phone and email he responded in a very timely manner even though I hope to never get in trouble again I ...will always hire and refer Mr. Koerner.

Maybe he is good at dancing, but Not good at representing in trial.

This lawyer took my case very lightly, and obvious, he loss my case. His representation is Not good in front of judge. In meetings, where he was suppose to be "prepared", he talked more about his dancing events but not the case. I do not recommend him.

Unfortunately, I do not know who you are, nor what the charge was and what resulted. I enjoy a good reputation with the Court and am fully prepared for all my appearances. You may have had unrealistic expectations of the result of my representation. While I do my best to represent your interests, I cannot change the underlying facts of your case and, as does happen, the prosecutor does prevail. I make myself available to all my clients to discuss their cases, and you may still want to speak to me about the result. Please feel free to contact me if you'd like to discuss further.

Highly competent, highly recommended!!!!

Tom Koerner is a very competent attorney and I am grateful to have had his representation! I retained Tom to represent me in a Reckless driving case in Arlington County. He is very knowledgeable, very caring, dedicated, and highly accessible to clients. It was a very tough time and Tom was th...ere every step of the way to explain my options, courtroom procedures, and the law as it applied to my case. This is something that I found refreshing and out of the ordinary! As a result of his hard work, he was able to get the charge reduced to Improper Driving! If you are looking for honest, caring, and effective legal representation, I would absolutely recommend Tom Koerner!
