Effective, efficient, and excellent

I retained Marina to defend me in a domestic violence case. The charges had been brought up over my spouse's objection; Marina referred my spouse to a colleague for their own representation, leaving the prosecutor with no case. Marina's manner of consultation was reassuring and highly responsive, an...d she helped close the chapter on the ordeal with the minimal headache factor. Would absolutely recommend her.

Diligent, accessible, knowledgeable representation

Ms. Medvin advised and represented us in a larceny case. Throughout the several months from the charges to the actual court date, Ms. Medvin provided excellent guidance, was always available for consultation/advice, and was diligent in ensuring that we fully understood the situation and what to expec...t. She was caring and thoughtful, and we couldn't have asked for a more informed attorney. Due to Ms. Medvin's representation, the charges were reduced significantly and no jail time was required. The outcome was all we could have asked for, and full credit is due Ms. Medvin. We highly recommend her.

Excellent, dedicated, driven, and down down-to-earth!

Starting Day 1, Marina was very direct and deliberate with her services. After a quick consultation with her over the phone and providing her with a more thorough intake on my incident and background, she offered excellent guidance on what my steps should be leading up to my court date. With her assi...stance, we were able to reduce my charge, amending a reckless driving of 85/55 down to a non-criminal speeding ticket with a fine of $250 (plus court costs). Very thankful and appreciative for Marina's help in my case! My case was continued twice--both times she was present on my behalf--and then I went in on the final date. She was able to take my case off the docket for negotiation--so on my court date, I only needed to wait in the cafeteria area while she negotiated with prosecutor--and then we both went into the courtroom together, and she respectfully spoke on my behalf. I did follow her insightful suggestions leading up to my court date, and am VERY confident to recommend her for relative cases. As the review title says, Marina is EXCELLENT, DEDICATED, DRIVEN, and DOWN-TO-EARTH! Marina is excellent--she is very professional, educated, and extraordinarily organized. Marina is dedicated--it seems like she would treat all of her cases as her most important case, with passionate commitment. Marina is driven--without a doubt in my mind, she did what she could to help me with my case, and she was ultimately successful. Marina is down-to-earth--in the most desirable way, she is upfront and realistically portrays all possible outcomes. I could not be much happier with the outcome of my case, and I know that I could not have achieved my outcome without the outstanding support of Marina Medvin, Esq. Thank you, Marina!

Excellent lawyer

Marina was great from the very beginning. She made my wife and I feel comfortable with her ability to get the charges dropped. She explained everything to us in detail and made me feel like I was her only client. My pending charge was for brandishing, but under the circumstances I had the right to de...fend my family from the assailant and Marina confirmed that the entire time. She made it very easy for my wife and I to testify and made us more relaxed and able to convey a clear, comprehensive testimony. Regardless of the time of day I contacted her with any questions she was extremely responsive. In the end my charges were dropped and the judge even confronted the assailant about how wrong his actions were and commended me for protecting my family. From the time I spoke with Marina on the phone for the first time, all the way through my trial I knew my family and I were in good hands.

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.
