From top to bottom, Marina is an incredible attorney that takes great pride in what she does, and does it very well. At all times throughout the process she was accessible, responsive, and caring. Despite the odds being against me, and despite my own initial missteps in dealing with the police, Marin...a produced the ideal outcome (all charges dismissed). While I couldn't venture to say she could manifest such an exceptional result in every circumstance, I can confidently say she would produce the best result possible for any person undertaking her services. I would recommend her to anyone with the greatest level of enthusiasm and conviction.

My family and friends jokingly call me "Officer Safety" because I'm so rigid about following the law and I have such a spotless driving record. So when I was charged with reckless driving for not stopping for a school bus, I was terrified. I called Marina the day after I was charged and her calm, pro...fessional demeanor immediately put me at ease. She was very clear about the seriousness of the charges against me, and she never promised me any particular outcome. As the mom of a child with multiple disabilities, I was very worried about the possibility of jail time or loss of my driver's license. Marina gave 150% effort to my case and put forward the strongest defense possible. In the end, it was a good thing I hired such a skilled attorney: the police officer had a very different version of the events surrounding my case, and without Marina's advocacy on my behalf, it would have been impossible to get him to agree to an amended charge. Marina was able to negotiate with the prosecutor to amend the charge to a traffic infraction with a $250 fine. Put Marina's contact info in your address book today. I hope you never need to call a criminal defense attorney but if you do, you should have Marina's number at the ready. She was a Godsend to me and I'll forever be grateful to her.

Upon being arrested on charges of DUI 2nd and refusal to submit to a breathalyzer, I began researching possible attorneys to defend me and was immediately struck by Marina's reputation and track record of success. She was professional and prompt in all of my dealings with her and immediately grasp...ed the evidentiary strengths and weaknesses of the Commonwealth's case and important legal issues that could be used as leverage to negotiate an acceptable plea deal. Based on her skill and experience, she was able to get the Commonwealth to reduce my charge to a first offense DUI, drop the refusal charge and prevent me from having to serve any jail time. It is obvious that she has a good working relationship with the various Commonwealth Attorneys, which only makes an acceptable outcome for her clients that much more likely. I wholeheartedly recommend Marina to any individual needing criminal defense representation in the jurisdictions where she practices.

Ms. Medvin was my representation in a recent DUI/DWI case where I refused to submit to a breathalyzer exam/sobriety check. I contacted Ms. Medvin on a referral. She was extremely responsive and made me feel as though I were her only client. She appeared with me at every court appearance and quickl...y followed up with reports on next steps. She consistently provided objective guidance and a clear set of options to consider in such a DUI/DWI case. Ms. Medvin was effective in educating me on the DUI/DWI laws and the possible outcomes of a conviction. This allowed me to make informed decisions on how to move forward through the court process. I never felt out of touch with the status of my case. I knew if I had a question it would be answered honestly and with with my interests being considered. I received a reduced sentence, was granted special driving restrictions and minor fine as a result. Ms. Medvin made it a point to sit with me through my initial probation screening to insure all the awarded driving restrictions were noted. This was extremely important as the probation office had not received this information and without her supervision may have been excluded in my probation terms. And finally, she provided (without hesitation) her assistance months later in submitting a travel request on my behalf. I can not thank her enough for efforts on my behalf. Marina Medvin's legal experience and service to the client is world class.
