Dauntless Defense by the best of the best!

Ms. Marina Medvin is truly an exception attorney. She loves the Law, and it shows. Her expertise is best-in-class, she navigates the intricacies of the process without effort and commands respect of the prosecutors as a tough negotiator, projecting confidence with grace, elegance of logic that melts,... but does not burn bridges behind. Charged with a high rate of speeding and reckless driving on George Washington Parkway (located on federal land), charge that carries possible prison term and a very high fine, I started to look for an attorney to represent me. In no time I came across hundreds of 5-star reviews left for Marina by happy clients. No paid-for advertisement can match the persuasive power of so many people from all walks of life, who had nothing but the most superlative things to say about Medvin Law. I contacted Marina, she responded promptly, and I just knew I am in good hands of an amazing lawyer. Marina was not only very responsive to my (admittedly) ceaseless questions, as I was worrying daily, and nightly, about the outcome of my case, but working with her top-notch paralegal, Elena, they advised me on exactly what to expect on the Court day and how to prepare for it. They went beyond formulaic advice, and the suggestions about what to bring with me, what not to say, what will happen in the courtroom etc. proved absolutely spot on. Marina and Elena covered things that I didn’t think to ask about but was so fortunate to be in the hands of top pros, who did thoroughly thought the process through and injected it with positive energy and hope for a favorable outcome. I was most impressed with Marina’s style and attention to detail while explaining the strategy, predicting likely (100% correct) outcome, and even providing encouragement and support I thought only happens in movies. I could not say enough to recommend Marina to anyone who finds him/herself in trouble. When Marina agreed to represent me, I felt the weight lifting off my shoulders, I knew I was in the best of hands. Marina is a credit to her profession and the kind of attorney other should be measured by. I feel so grateful to have her represent me, so fortunate to have her on my side. And the result in my case? A small speeding fine. Could not be more pleased.

Best Criminal Defense Attorney

Ms. Medvin is the best criminal attorney in Washington DC area. She managed my wife's case. My wife had 4 felonies. She got her an excellent plea deal where 3 felonies were dropped and 1 amended to misdemeanor with no jail time or probation, just a fine. We can not thank her enough for what she did f...or us. Thank you so much Ms Medvin.

Incredible

Marina represented me in a marijuana possession case in December 2012. The cop had lied about every aspect of my arrest, interrogation, and said that I had admitted fault at the scene, disregarded me asking for a lawyer, among other things. She managed to get the case dropped down to a no contest p...lea to paraphernalia and only a $200 fine. Definitely would recommend her to anyone and everyone fighting a drug or paraphernalia charge.

Assault and Battery charge dismissed

I was charged with assault and battery and I am so grateful to have had Marina Medvin defend me. I am 66 years old, and after all these years of walking the straight-and-narrow I was in the most horrifying nightmare of my life. I was rattled and alone, and from the start Ms. Medvin took charge and ...care of me and my case. She wasted no time and gave me in full measure the instruction, clarity, options and guidance that I needed. She helped me to focus. And because of Marina Medvin's in-depth knowledge of the court system and all its members, and because of her skill and innate poise, she not only succeeded on my behalf, but she made a big fan of me. I was proud to have her stand up for and by me in court.
