SHE IS THE TOP LAWYER

She is truly amazing I was referred to her once I got denied for my CW permit. She took her time to communicate with me through the whole process and understanding my case. She is very knowledgeable and she was very thorough on speaking up for me in court. Hiring her was the best decision ever she h...elped me obtain my permit. She is truly the best. Thank you for representing me and showing that you care about my situation.

Best lawyer in Va Beach!!

Katherine and her team took care of me from day one!! Even when I had to deploy (US Navy) and the judge found be guilty, Katherine had my case reopened upon my return and got my speeding ticket reduced to a non moving violation. I recommend her 10/10!

Excellent lawyer for reckless driving defense

Great to work with and an effective lawyer! I was charged with reckless driving for speeding 29 mph over in a school zone. She gave great advice on preparing for court, and was able to get the judge to knock down a potential class 1 misdemeanor to an improper driving traffic infraction. Would totally... recommend Katherine!

Amazing Outcome!

Ms. Coltrain was outstanding in her representation of my case. She took the time to understand the situation and made recommendations to me to help in obtaining the best possible outcome. She was very professional in the way she represented me. I would certainly recommend her and hire her again if ...ever needed.

I can't thank her enough.

The highlight of this process is that I had what felt to be an unbeatable case. My driving record is horrible, this is my 3rd offense which was a complete accident. Regardless, Katherine and I decided the only request I had was no jail time, and she saw it through. We walked into court and she pleade...d my case for me with Power, Determination, and Respect that I believe the judge admired. As the last breathes were taken before I passed out from nervousness, the judge honored Katherine's request to punish me simply by a higher fine. I felt as though I was in a movie. None of it felt real and I was terrified from the time i woke up to my arrival at the bench. She is definitely worth the investment in her time. I can't thank her enough.

Criminal defense lawyer | May 16

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I worked alongside Katherine when I was a former prosecutor, and later I tried cases against her as a defense attorney. She then left to become a defense attorney herself, and she is an incredible advocate for her clients. Her time as a former prosecutor serves her well, allowing her to analyze a case for its strengths and weaknesses from every side. She is confident and outspoken in the courtroom, and well respected by the judges she regularly appears before."

Relationship: Co-worker

"Katherine is an amazing advocate. She was so good as Commonwealth Attorney (Prosecutor) in case I tried against her I thought it would be better to have her on my side than have to fight against her in court. Katherine is your go-to attorney for any criminal matters from Felonies to Reckless Driving. And because she was lives on the Peninsula she is your definite smart choice if you are facing charges in Hampton, Williamsburg, Yorktown, Newport News or Gloucester."
