Excellent service!

Marina Medvin is an excellent, well prepared, thoughtful and thorough attorney. She represented me on a DWI charge and prior to my court date she answered all of my questions, she communicated with me regularly, she made it very clear what was going to happen and what I could expect. She was able to ...get my case dismissed so I am more than satisfied. I watched another DWI case prior to my case being called, and she was head and shoulders a much better attorney than that defense lawyer and the prosecutor. I highly recommend her services; it was well worth the money.

Reckless Driving Ticket

I received a reckless driving ticket in Alexandria for doing 54 in a 25. This is a misdemeanor in Virginia, punishable by up to a $2,000 fine, one year in jail, and suspension of license. I contacted Marina, liked what I heard, and hired her. Once hired, she quickly gave me instruction on how to pr...oceed and information to get to her. She had the court case moved back a month in order for me to have more time to complete the tasks necessary. During this time she was readily available by phone or email to answer any questions I had. When court day came, she stood in for me, which allowed me to not miss a day of work. She negotiated with the prosecutor and had the charges dropped to a speeding ticket (44 in 25) and a $75 fine. Could not be happier with the outcome and absolutely recommend Marina Medvin.

Very competent and gets results

This was my time using an attorney for personal reasons and after being charged with public intoxication. I began researching attorneys and selected Marina immediately. She is a no-nonsense type of professional, and extremely organized, prepared and communicates with her clients very quickly. Afte...r selecting her firm, she presented a game plan that would put me in the best position for an excellent outcome and her experience and recommendations made all the difference in my opinion. As mentioned, I did not have a lot of other attorney experience to compare my case to, but I was very pleased with the results and would highly recommend her to anyone.

The Best Attorney!

I was arrested for Intoxication in Public. The prosecutor was about to make it a more serious charge and change it to a felony. Marina was flawless. The way she was able to work out a deal and put forth my best interest was amazing. Her work ethic, determination and the way she truly cared for me and... my case amazed me. She was fierce, intelligent, and professional. I truly believe I chose the best attorney and am so grateful for finding her.

Best criminal lawyer

Without a doubt in my mind I can say that Ms Medvin is the best criminal lawyer that is there in the DC/ Virgiia area..I had 2 grand larceny and during the preliminary hearing itself one charge was dropped and the other was reduced to a misdemeanor with no jail time . My case was complicated due to m...y green card status and Ms Medvin took that into consideration right from day 1 and made sure that I get an outcome that didn't lead to deportability or inadmissibility. If you are stuck in any criminal proceedings with the state then she is the right person to talk to . Ms Medvin is smart, intelligent, considerate, knows the law in and out and had a tremendous track record. The best thing about her is that she is very straight forward and lays out the situation and the consequences as it is so that you know the intensity of the situation and are prepared to fight it. She was there with me every step of the way 24x7 and I mean it literally . You can call her day or night anytime if the week and she will always be there to answer all your questions. When you are stuck in this difficult situation you need a lawyer who would leave no stone unturned till you get your desired outcome and Ms Medvin is that lawyer . I owe her everything .
