Very professional and reliable

Recently, I got a ticket for reckless driving by speed in VA. I am from MD and didn't know the consequences of getting a ticket for this in VA, can be so heavy. I took the decision of hiring Mr Michael Huff as my attorney. From the moment I spoke to him for consultation, I could feel that I will be... in good hands. Michael is a thorough professional. He was very clear from day one as to what exactly needs to be done. Eventually, I just had to pay the fine on the day of my court hearing. I would highly recommend him to people who need consultation for traffic related violations.

Great attorney

I had Micheal on two different occasions and he did exceptional for me on both of those cases . My first case was possession of marijuana with Intent to distribute where my guidelines were 3 to 6 months of active jail time and with his excellent work and enormous effort he was able to convince the ...judge to suspend all of that time and only give me probation.. My second case was also a drug distribution but this time it was much more serious it was heroin and I was looking at 40 years. He worked around the clock on this case. He prepared a great plan that allowed me to be granted bond which was unlikely in this case . From then on he really dug deep into the case , he was able to get the prosecutor to agree to Nolle process the case due to lack of evidence so my charge was dismissed.. I am truly beyond happy with his services . He had saved my life and my future . He was easily available to be reached at any time and was always responsive within a matter of an hour or less .. I would highly recommend him to anyone going through legal troubles

US Citizenship Process

Mr. Huff was extremely professional and helped me get through a very difficult citizenship application process. He made sure we covered all the bases and had the most clear and well prepared application with all necessary affidavits and additional documents. I am now in line to be scheduled for the ...swearing in ceremony and couldn't be any happier!

Professional attorney, reduced charges

Michael Huff was my legal defense attorney in a misdemeanor case of reckless driving and leaving the scene of an accident. Michael was clear, concise, organized and professional in his preparation for the trial. I am pleased and satisfied with the outcome of the trial considering the prosecutor's p...rincipal witness perjured himself several times on the witness stand. Michael was able to reduce the charges and fines to the lowest allowed under the law that I might have received from the presiding judge.
