Roger A. Whitus

If you ever find need for legal representation in Virginia Beach, or surrounding cities- instead of googling “best defense atty near me” spending hours comparing attorneys, credentials and making phone calls here is your Cheat code. Attorney Roger Whitus is your pinch hitter, absolutely the best lega...l defender to have on your team. I hired Roger May of 2024. He hit the ground running, within 2 days he had me in front of a judge petitioning an agreement for my release after I previously had been denied bond. I’ve never had any legal trouble, so naturally I had a lot of questions. Roger is excellent at keeping an open line of communication, explaining the legal process and answering any questions promptly. Each court hearing, he was always present and ready, most times before I had even arrived. Although he had numerous other cases to handle, he always made me feel as though my case was a priority. Within the legal community, he is well-respected with a solid working relationship with prosecutors, judiciary and ancillary staff. He maintains a dominant court room presence. Educated, knowledgeable, well-versed, organized and responsive. I can keep going, but my point is that often it’s hard to find an attorney that hits most of these characteristics, in Roger’s case, he hits them all and more. Give yourself a break and the peace of mind knowing you have the best legal defense possible. Give Roger Whitus a call. You will be glad you did..

Mr. Whitus consistently demonstrated professionalism and thorough preparation with our case. While the outcome was not as we hoped for, we want to emphasize that we are grateful for his hard work and dedication to our case. We would recommend Mr. Whitus to others, as his caring approach, knowledge ...and expertise set him apart. During our year and half long relationship, we appreciated his consistent and timely communication, as well as his availability in keeping us informed about our case.

My mother hired Mr. Whitus after I told her all the great things other people were saying about him. He came for my consultation and after speaking with Mr. Whitus I had hope that I didn’t have before. Whenever I needed to see him, he came. Whenever my mother contacted him, he responded within 24 hrs.... Mr. Whitus was my lawyer for only a month and was able to get my violent felony dropped to a misdemeanor. Mr.Whitus got the ball rolling with my case and got my charge lowered. I highly recommend him if you need a criminal defense lawyer in Virginia Beach.

Roger has been a true gift for our us this holiday season. He had our loved one for a case in early December. He kept us up to date on everything that was going on and made sure to make time for us when we had questions. After that case was finalized, there was an unexpected case that popped up and n...eeded to be resolved. When issues arose with that case, we reached out to Roger in desperation. Despite not being assigned to our loved one for this particular case, he quickly called us back to find out what was going on. He then sought out answers by talking to the prosecutors and judge and got the case dismissed. The fact that he went out of his way to help our loved one was truly amazing and we could not be more thankful for him... You’d think we hired a private attorney. It is evident that he truly cares about his clients and his job. Anybody would be lucky to have him as a public defender!!
