First of all, in today's day and age it is rare to go to trial. Deals are made and unless there is a life sentence at stake or someone is wrongly accused, there will not be a trial. If I was innocent, I would have rode with Beau till the wheels fell off but like most that get charged, I was guilty as... guilty gets. No need for trial. Still, I should have received a 10 year sentence under Virginia guidelines and Beau navigated me over the mountains that were in front of me in order to fight for a fair and lesser sentence. That included me staying clean and being a successful and productive member of society. We continued to push back the final sentencing date until I had to finally face my punishment. During this year and a half I put together a beautiful life and a successful future was almost a guarantee, unless the judge went by my record and the guidelines. Beau really saw the change I had made and I think that is why he made sure the Commonwealth and judge knew the whole story. He fought very hard for me and I have seen him do the same for others that were serious about changing their lives. I received 11 months. Incredible to say the least. That was 2010 and I still am in contact with him and send anyone who needs proper representation his way. My wife and 7 year old are grateful for him as well!

Even though I was still convicted, Beau was an amazing lawyer who did everything he could to at least lighten my sentence. He was successful in doing so as well! I managed to get just probation that lasted two months! I was a hard client to work with as well, but he worked around that. I've had three... lawyers in my eighteen years, and this man is by far the best, the most professional, and the most caring. If I ever have any more legal trouble, I'll be sure to go back to him!

I have known "Beau" for 5 years now, due, to his expertise as a defense attorney. I can honestly say that he will go the extra mile for his clients, no matter who they are, or what they have done. He not only is very careful to follow the guidelines of the law system, but, he is there for his clien...ts, and, their families whenever they need him. He is a very genuine, humble person, who treats everyone with the greatest of respect. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing an excellent defense attorney.
