Lifesaver!

I was arrested in February for Xanax and marijuana possession charges after being pulled over in a car with expired tags. I thought that my life was over and that I would never be able to be as successful as I had always hoped to be with this mistake following me around, but Jonathan Fisher was able ...to get both charges completely dismissed pending my completion of the VASAP course. He was extremely professional and catered to my wants regarding my punishments, pushing for the best result for ME. I am extremely thankful that I hired him!

Professional, compassionate, smart

My daughter was charged with possession of marijuana in Blacksburg. An internet search and some recommendations led to Mr. Fisher. We had a successful phone consultation, and I hired Mr. Fisher to represent my daughter. Mr. Fisher explained the options to my daughter which included the First Offend...ers program. We were adamant that we wanted to be able to expunge the charges, if possible, and did not want to accept the First Offenders program initially. My daughter wanted to take responsibility for her actions but also wanted the chance to expunge her record after doing whatever was necessary to address her behavior. The First Offenders Program does not allow for expungement of the possession charge. Mr. Fisher explained the process to us, and we waited for the court date. During that time, I was extremely anxious and called Mr. Fisher on several occasions. He calmly explained his intended course of action and professionally handled my anxiety. When my daughter's court date arrived, Mr. Fisher attempted to work with the police officer for a favorable outcome for my daughter. The police officer was not interested. Mr. Fisher then conversed with the prosecutor regarding an outcome that would allow the charges to be expunged if my daughter fulfilled all requirements. Again, the prosecutor was not interested. Mr. Fisher took us aside, explained the situation and stated that he was going to try the case. He was completely honest about the possible outcomes and thoroughly intent upon doing his best for my daughter. He successfully argued her case and was able to secure a dismissal of the charges. Needless to say, we are absolutely thrilled with his representation. I hope not to need his services again, but I highly recommend him to anyone who does.

Highly recommend mr fisher

Live in New York got a dwi in Virginia. Read the positive reviews on Jonathan and hired him. He was very professional and thorough. He even gave me his cell to call anytime and always returned my text messages. We took my case to trial and was found not guilty. I highly recommend Jonathan.

I was so happy to help this young Hokie get his DUI dismissed. He deserved a break. This case was a prime example of why I just keep pushing cases and don't quit. We just kept going, and ultimately it was dismissed on an issue I didn't even anticipate. If we had pled guilty, that opportunity wouldn't have arisen.

Great lawyer gets the result we needed!

Our son in college suffered a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and was prescribed several medications for headaches and pain relief. Three days after being released from the hospital he made the unfortunate decision to drive a vehicle resulting in a minor traffic accident and a DWI arrest. We contacted... Jonathan Fisher and could tell he had the experience and confidence to help us get to the desired outcome, so we hired him to represent our son. As the trial date became closer, Jonathan did his best to make a satisfactory deal with the prosecutor. However, the prosecutor would only offer reckless with possible jail-time. Jonathan assured us we could do better, and we didn’t hesitate to follow his recommendation to take the case to trial in Montgomery County. As our son’s case finally began, we listened intently as the prosecutor called his witnesses. When the prosecutor rested his case, it was finally time to hear Jonathan tell our son’s side of the story and establish his defense. Jonathan’s first action was to call a motion to strike the case due to a technical error committed by the prosecutor, and the judge consequently granted the motion to strike. Our son’s case was dismissed and he was free to go! Jonathan’s expertise and attention to details of the testimony allowed him to see an opening and he quickly capitalized on it giving us the result we needed. Jonathan Fisher is clearly an expert in the field. He really knows his subject matter and can think quickly and decisively in the court room leading to the results you need. We highly recommend hiring him for your case!
