Phenomenal lawyer; Totally worth the money!

I was clocked at 96 in a 70 on one of the Virginia interstates. Anything above 80mph or 20+ above the limit in Virginia is reckless driving, which is a misdemeanor (this stays on your record for life, as VA courts do not allow misdemeanors to be expunged from one’s record). As a professional I could ...not afford to have that on my record. We started receiving brochures in the mail from different law firms. We called several of them. Despite a retainment fee of $2500, we decided to go with Mr. Fisher since he had the best rating and reviews on multiple websites. Mr. Fisher spoke to me many times before the case, and even talked to my father over the phone. He told me exactly what I should do before the court date, including volunteering, obtaining my driving record, etc. During the trial, he paid close attention to the prosecution as they laid forth their case. He caught subtle mistakes neither the prosecutor nor police officer noticed, and I ended up walking away with nothing more than a 71 in a 70 on my record. Mr. Fisher is truly a remarkable lawyer. Most other lawyers would not have caught that mistake, and they may not have even gone to trial for this case. He is totally worth your money if you are in a difficult situation and want to protect your record.

DUI dropped to Reckless

I heard about Mr. Fisher's expertise with DUI cases on the radio and when I was charged, he was the first person I contacted and I am so glad I did. I was charged with a DUI and failure to blow in addition to speeding. I was very concerned about loosing my license as it would greatly effect my work..., perhaps make me loose my job. From the beginning and throughout the entire process, Mr. Fisher was able to ease my mind about the situation. Jonathan was able to get my charges reduced to reckless driving and I got to keep my license. Worth every penny!!!

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.
