Couldn't Be More Thankful

A friend of mine referred me to John A. Boneta & Associates. Andrew represented me this past week, and is nothing short of an amazing lawyer. My arrest and overall situation overwhelmed me and gave me anxiety for a month and a half. When I realized how important it was to find the perfect lawyer, I i...mmediately contacted John Boneta from all the great things I had already heard. Andrew only had 3 days to work on my case and helped me to the best of his ability, and he succeeded. I was in tears with how relieved I was to have had Andrew represent me. He truly cares and does not waste a single second when helping/representing you. I would refer him to anyone who needs a lawyer.

Nothing short of Awesome!!

24 hours ago, I was dead in the water on a DUI charge in Arlington County, I had resigned myself to the fact that I was done, and if I pushed for trial, pretty sure a guilty verdict would have me in jail for an extended period of time Andrew's professionalism and tenacity in following up on every po...ssible angle got my charge reduced to pleading no contest for reckless driving. No ignition interlock, a restricted license for only 6 months instead of 12, and most importantly, no DUI conviction following me around for the rest of my life. Andrew fought for me like he was the one charged with the DUI, and I am beyond impressed with his services. Anyone asks "who's the best attorney you know?" It is without hesitation that I say Andrew Rudolphi! While I will work very hard to never be in legal trouble again, if I ever need legal assistance again, My first call is to John Boneta and Associates to have Andrew and John in my corner. My endless thanks to Andrew and John for giving me my future back!

By The Way He Is Much More handsome Than in this Picture

This review is for Attorney Andrew Rudolphi My name is Sami and this review is for. my 18 year old son was charged with possession to distribute. My son had many juvenile court cases for truancy in the last couple of years and the courts, the police and the probation officers had become his h...unting demons since he was suffering from anxiety with severe symptoms of depression. The court did not understand and we had no good attorney relied on public defendants for almost 2 years and no one was able to make the case that he was not truant but had a fear to be in public so we made my son's life hell because we never had a real attorney. Please do not make my mistakes ever, stay away from public defenders and go clean bathrooms as second job, but safe your kids if they need your help! When my son turned 18 the state brought back charges for marijuana found on his room a year earlier. Now they were charging him with possession with intent. That charge totally destroyed my already terrorized child. I found John Boneta on line and made an appointment to see him. When I went to meet Mr. Boneta, he was not there but a young attorney who seemed very pleasant to talk too, and kind and decent by the name of Andrew Rudolphi met me and we signed the papers for him to represent me. I had gone there for John Bonetta and was not sure if Andrew could be as good an attorney as Boneta seems to have build his reputation in the community. As much as I was worried for my son I wanted to talk to Andrew every second for updates and it would not stick in my mind that the good attorneys have many cases and mess up or ignore none that's why they are great. He kept telling me to calm down and i suspected perhaps once you pay them they have no more motivation to spend time with you. I send an e mail to him and his firm, telling the firm and him personally that I did not go there to hire Andrew but Bonta's firm and thought my attorney was Boneta and he could be simply Bonetta's assistant, something I feel not proud now to have said but I was in panic for my son. I regret my hasty reaction, especially after I had the chance to see for myself what a fantastic lawyer Andrew really is. Something I suspect is that his personality spread good energy and I thinkt a kind person like Andrew will be very successful in cutting a deal for you with the prosecutor if your case permits a better deal, better than fighting a risky trial battle in the courtroom. Andrew, even though younger than half my age was not only a wonderful young man but a great professional and show no signs of contempt for my letter to his firm when I knew nothing how good a layer he is and wanted only Boneta to represent my son but worked with same dedication and kindness and tried to get the best he could get for my son, and oh God the best he did. I just finished my son's case today and just wished to all the man and women out there who have been in trouble with the law and perhaps punished more than they deserve, they only be lucky to get an attorney like me and my son found in Andrew. Cases are not all the same different circumstances, different, prosecutors, different judges and different probation officers but a good attorney like Andrew Rudolphi will be a blessing for you if you face yourself against felony misdemeanor or whatever charges there might be He will fight for you to prove your innocence or to shed some positive lights in your defense because in the front of the state you are a criminal for any criminal offense but you know you are a human that deserve the best professional to defend you for your troubles in life. I give Andrew the best ratings an attorney can ever get. God bless this young man!

DUI help

Andrew is outstanding! My daughter was arrested for DUI and Andrew was wonderful in representing her. She went through alcohol recovery in another state, so we had to navigate the complexities of the Fairfax County Court in getting her restricted driving privileges acknowledged so she could get a res...tricted driver's license in another state. More complex than it sounds. He to s the best.

Amazing!

This was my first time ever dealing with courts and all. I made a terrible decision and ended up with a DWI. I was nervous, anxious, scared I was feeling every negative emotion at once. I did not know how to go about the situation at all. I explored my options with lawyers and it seemed like they wer...e only concerned about the money. A friend passed onto me Andrew Rudolphi's information and I will forever be grateful. As soon as I walked into his office I felt at easy. I explained my situation/charge he was quick to give me advice and tell me what I should do in order to help my case. As opposed to other lawyers who just gave me the worst case scenario but nothing to help unless I paid them. I knew right off the bat Andrew was being genuine and actually cared. He worked with me and answered all my questions. Believe me when I tell you he looks in the best interest of his clients, he does his research and doesn't mind it at all. He made sure he had every single detail even the little things. The day of my court date I went in expecting the worst, considering it was my first time and I did not know what to expect or what was going to happen. Let's admit some judges and prosecutors can be harsh and unforgiving. Andrew remained calm and reassured me he was going to do everything he could to get me a great outcome. That's exactly what happen. I feel as if a thank you isn't even enough to explain how grateful and how much I appreciate Andrew Rudolphi's help. I would definitely recommend him as a lawyer and I will definitely save his information.( Not that I plan on getting into anymore trouble haha). Once again Thank you so much!!!!!!
