DUI and DWI 40%

I defend DUI / DWI cases across central and Northern Virginia. Over a decade of experience as a prosecutor gives me deep insight into the government's case against you, so I can help spot weakness and negotiation points to help obtain a great result.

Criminal Defense 30%

If you have another criminal charge such as eluding the police, hit and run, DWI maiming, or a VASAP violation, I can help as well. I defend clients against many misdemeanors and felonies in the General District Courts and Circuit Courts.

Speeding and Traffic Ticket 30%

I handle a variety of traffic tickets as well, with most of them being reckless driving for speed or accidents. Don't let a reckless driving charge ruin your record and take away your driver's license. Call today.

Liam’s court case

Fitz did an amazing job explaining what options were available for me, and also proved very knowledgeable of the Law and explained to the court why my license was suspended until February 8th because of a paperwork issue. He really went above and beyond for me and I thank him for that.

Best Lawyer in VA; Helped Me with 100+MPH Reckless Driving Misdemeanor Charge

I had the odds stacked against me--I have a fast car + I was driving in triple digit speed + I did this in the worst state to get a speeding ticket. It didn't help that I had a prior speeding ticket conviction within the past several years. All I can say is, thank God I crossed paths with Fitz becaus...e he was 1. reasonable in what he charged and the payment plan, 2. very knowledgeable about the counties he represents, 3. has insight into the prosecution side, and 4. provides you with the steps you need to fulfill to result in a good verdict. The reviews I read about Fitz and the firm he partners with gave me some level of confidence I made the right choice. Now that my case is over, I couldn't be more elated. Having a misdemeanor reckless driving speed charge, I expected a suspended license, fines, and worst of all, jail time. I've heard of cases of people getting a month in jail doing the same speed as me, or even less. Following Fitz's recommendations, I walked out the courtroom with a reduced charge. It was dropped from a misdemeanor, which would have ended up on my criminal record permanently, to a traffic violation which I paid right then and there. No suspended license and more importantly, no jail time. This has been a very heavy burden lifted. And I've learned my lesson. I highly recommend Fitz to anyone who needs legal representation. We all make mistakes and he is someone that will do his part to ensure you get the best result feasible for your case.

Provided excellent guidance/direction/representation which resulted in a reduction in charges for a traffic violation. Would highly recommend.

Great lawyer

Mr Fitzgerald is a great and highly knowledgeable lawyer having been a former prosecuter himself. He represented me in a case and got my charge knocked down to a non moving violation. I would highly recommend him if you need help with traffic related cases.
