Criminal Defense

If you have received a criminal charge, the best strategic decision you can make is to prepare for the upcoming proceedings. Penalties for criminal charges in Virginia can negatively affect your immediate and future well-being. Penalties are assigned based on the severity of the crime as determined by Virginia law. More serious charges are assigned more severe penalties. Penalties include fines, community service, rehabilitation programs, jail time, or a combination of different penalties.
