It was certainly great to have Ms. Medvin on my side when I was arrested for being drunk in public. She responded to my initial inquiries via email in real time. She then sent me intake papers instructing me on what to do and asking for paperwork and information that she needed. From there it was ...simply a matter of doing what she said (in my case voluntary community service) and leaving the arguments up to her. She got my charges dropped entirely! This is a lawyer who knows what she is doing - you can tell in talking to her that she knows her way around the law and exactly how best to help you. I hope never ever to have any legal trouble again, but if I did, I would call Ms. Medvin immediately.

I was charged with an enhanced DUI which, if convicted, would include a mandatory 5 days in jail. The jail time would have likely been increased due to a collision involved. Ms. Medvin was able to get the BAC dropped and I avoided jail time. This was the first time I have been charged with a cri...me, and was in full panic mode. After googling local lawyers, Ms. Medvin's accolades and reviews stood out among all others. After speaking with her, I immediately knew I made the right decision in hiring her as my attorney. Throughout the process, Ms. Medvin was always there to not only answer my questions (which were many), but also gave me peace of mind with her answers and knowledge of legal matters, specifically with DUIs. She is very quick to return messages and emails, typically within an hour if not immediately, regardless of the time of day. You can tell she truly cares about her clients. I also think the rate she charged was very reasonable for the situation. Also, she referred me to another lawyer for a question regarding my car insurance. I contacted the attorney she suggested, and this matter was resolved after speaking with the attorney for a little over an hour. I recommend anyone in need of legal representation to make Ms. Medvin your first call.

I am very impressed with Ms. Medvin. She is fully knowledgeable of the law and the process. She has a natural sense of people and the law, and I watched her work through the officers and the judge. She is confident, yet amicable and also persistent, all at the same time. I observed two other attorney...s come up to her while we were in court and congratulate her on some other case result that she had in another case, so she is highly respected amongst lawyers as well. Absolutely recommended, yes.

For a first time offender who had no clue how the legal system worked, Marina was a godsend. One conversation and you can tell she's exceedingly bright. She's a genuine person that really seems to care about her clients. She was also scary fast at returning my calls and replying to my emails - did no...t matter if it was 8:00AM or 10:00PM, I never waited longer than 45 minutes. She patiently and efficiently explained every part of my discovery; what, per Code, would be my sentence if convicted; how she could get the charges down or dismissed; and, what happens after a trial or plea bargain is agreed to. She was amazingly calm on the day of court, explaining the process and providing play-by-play in a way in which someone who does not have a law degree could understand. She seems to have a good working relationship, due to her years of experience, with the prosecutors in my jurisdiction. Because of that and her skills as a trial lawyer, she was able to successfully negotiate a plea deal resulting in zero days jail time - not what we were expecting but forever grateful. In other words: she's the best, just do it.

I HIGHLY recommend Attorney Marina Medvin! I was charged with a DUI after having failed a field sobriety test and a field breathalyzer reading of 0.19. At the police station I had a BAC of 0.14. I am a young professional who has physical limitations which had hindered my ability to properly c...arry out the field sobriety test. In addition, my career would be in jeopardy should a criminal DUI conviction were to be on my record. Initially I had sought legal counsel from an attorney who appeared on a quick web search. After retaining this law firm, discussing my case and meeting with this attorney; I quickly knew this firm didn't have my best interest at heart. I learned of Marina Medvin after dissolving my relationship with my previous counselor, and I am thankful I had done so! Immediately I saw a difference. Attorney Medvin introduced herself as Marina and after a few minutes of discussing my predicament with her, I felt at ease. She is professional, extremely well-educated, personable and brilliant in every regard to say the least! She took my case and had presented me with all of the information necessary to help me. Over the next next several months, she was available to answer any questions and address all concerns I had throughout this process. She was my advocate and truly diligent every step of the way. I had received a new position which required a background check, I had made Marina aware of this, within minutes she responded and drafted a letter to present to my employer; in-short securing my new position. On the day of the trial, she was unsastisfied with the circumstances and successfully argued a continuance, which was accepted. Her professionalism in the courtroom and the respect she commands from prosecutors and judges, truly speaks for itself. After one month we were heard before a judge who is notoriously apathetic. Marina bargained with the prosecution and presented our case diligently and eloquently. I had won a victory by avoiding a criminal charge of a DUI which had been reduced to a reckless driving! A victory of which she received accolades from her fellow colleagues as we were exiting the courthouse. If ever I were to thank someone and owe them for my future, it is Marina Medvin, Esq. This was and hopefully my only indiscretion with the judicial system, but for any reason I or anyone I cared for, were to find themselves in a nightmare like this; I would only trust Marina to take care of me or someone dear to me. I HIGHLY recommend Attorney Marina Medvin, Esq.!
