Marina is an absolute powerhouse!

"If you're looking for a criminal defense attorney, I cannot recommend Marina Medvin highly enough. Finding yourself in need of a defensive lawyer is incredibly stressful, but from my very first consultation with Marina, I knew I was in the best possible hands. She represented me in a complex case, a...nd her knowledge of the law and the local court system is unmatched. She answered all of my questions clearly, kept me updated every step of the way, and never left me in the dark. In the courtroom, Marina is an absolute powerhouse-She is confident, tenacious, and commands respect from everyone in the room. Thanks to her hard work and strategic thinking, my case resulted in a complete dismissal. Hiring Marina was the best decision I could have made. If your future and freedom are on the line, you want her in your corner".

From 5 years to Nolle Pros

Working with Marina was truly a pleasure. Ms. Medvin was realistic and kept me honest throughout the process while making sure I was provided every opportunity to get the best outcome. I was charged with a crime that had a mandatory 5 year minimum and with her guidance and support, I walked away afte...r a nolle pros decision. Marina helped save my life and I can't thank her enough for what she did for me. Highly recommend!

Performance surpassed all expectations

Ms. Medvin succeeded in getting my case dismissed in spite of me being brought to court on trumped up charges and adjudicated in a highly dysfunctional judicial system. She worked diligently and untiringly in building a very solid defense for my case. In fact, she composed and submitted a motion that... was accepted by both the prosecuting attorney and the judge, and, consequently, resulted in my case being dismissed. Ms Medvin is very professional, highly competent and very knowledgeable of the law. I highly recommend Ms Medvin.

The absolute best!

I was charged with petit larceny and was terrified of what that meant for my future. I spent hours online researching attorneys and Marina Medvin was the most recommended and highly reviewed attorney in Northern Virginia and beyond. When you read about her accolades and high profile cases, it at firs...t seems unfathomable that just an average person could retain her and not feel intimidated or even be able to afford her. This couldn’t be further from the truth. During our initial phone consultation, she came across as competent, experienced, diligent, and transparent about similar cases she has handled. All of these qualities are what you hope to find in an attorney, but most importantly she was kind. I felt like I was not just a potential client for her, but a person. A person in a difficult situation that needed somebody to have their back. I hired her immediately after that conversation and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. She got my case dismissed and effectively gave me my life back. If you need representation do not look any further than Marina Medvin. Thank you Marina.
