Our combined experience includes thousands of cases handled, and our primary practice areas include:

  • Out-of-State Traffic Violations, including charges of driving while impaired/DUI/DWI, reckless driving, refusing a breath test, driving without a license, speeding and all other traffic charges.
  • DUI/DWI/drunk driving. We have helped hundreds of Virginians and out-of-state drivers reduce their drunk driving charge, have their charges dismissed or achieve full acquittal.
  • Reckless Driving and Speeding. Virginia Beach's reckless driving and speeding legal penalties are the toughest we've seen. Jail time is a real possibility. We have helped hundreds of people stay out of jail, retain driving privileges and keep their insurance rates low.

  • Driving Without a License. We can help if you've lost your license for any reason, including failure to pay a fine, driving without insurance, failure to pay child support and a DUI/DWI conviction.
  • Juvenile and Civil Crimes, including charges against parents for abuse and neglect, and charges against minors, including assault and battery, drug charges, shoplifting, underage drinking and driving, curfew violations, gang-related issues and violence against parents.
