Following an arrest for driving under the influence (DUI), you need to take action to protect your driving privileges and your record. If you are convicted of a DUI, you could be facing license suspension, fines, jail time and restitution. You need to work with an attorney right away.
Domestic violence is the crime of intentionally and knowingly harming a cohabitant, relative or someone with whom you are in a romantic relationship. This offense is punishable by prison time, fines and restitution along with mandatory anger-management courses.
Many factors can influence the outcome of your drug case. Prosecutors will look at the type of drug you had on you, your intentions with the drug, and the amount that was found. The attorney at our firm can help ensure your rights are protected.
Are you being haunted by a criminal past? A criminal record can prevent you from obtaining work, education and housing; however, you may be eligible to permanently seal your criminal records. Contact our firm today to learn about expungement and whether you are eligible.
A conviction for a sex crime is very serious and can include prison time and require you to spend the rest of your life registering as a sex offender. We can defend you against child pornography claims,
internet sex crimes and
rape allegations.
Regardless of the items stolen, or their totaled amount, theft crimes carry steep penalties. If you were arrested and charged with robbery, burglary, petty theft, grand theft or any other theft crime case, you need to contact our firm as soon as possible.
While most people assume that traffic offenses will simply "go away," that is not true. Tickets can accumulate, and you may be facing additional complications. You need to work with an attorney to ensure that you receive a favorable outcome to your case.
Violent crimes are some of the most strictly prosecuted offenses in the state of Virginia. If you have been charged with assault and battery,
murder, or
manslaughter, you need to immediately retain aggressive representation from our firm.
These non-violent crimes still carry potential for extremely harsh sentencing. If you have been arrested or are under investigation for bank fraud,
credit card fraud or
