I have been practicing law for almost 30 years and I appear daily in the courts of Richmond and Central Virginia defending individuals charged with traffic and/or criminal offenses. I strive to provide cost-effective service with superior results.

Reckless Driving

Virginia has some of the toughest traffic laws in the United States. Reckless Driving is a class 1 Misdemeanor and a conviction will result in a permanent criminal record. In addition, for Virginia drivers, the DMV will assign six demerit points and the infraction will appear on your driving record for 11 years. In serious cases of Reckless Driving, there is the potential for jail time and/or license suspension.

Knowledgeable and Sophisticated DUI Defense

I am an experienced DUI attorney. Not all criminal defense and traffic attorneys are experienced DUI attorneys. An effective DUI attorney must understand the legal, medical and scientific issues that are involved in DUI cases and use that knowledge to achieve the best results possible.

Effective Criminal Defense

When I defend criminal cases I utilize negotiations and trial practice skills that have taken decades to develop. I care about my clients and understand what they are going through. I always keep in mind what are the most effective tactics to achieve the outcome we both are hoping for.
