Traveling from opposite ends of the country for court was overwhelming, and the stakes felt terribly high. From the moment my attorney stepped in, I felt a sense of relief. He was calm, confident, and clearly knew what he was doing. Walking out of the courtroom without the life-altering consequences I was afraid of, is something I will never forget. The outcome of my case honestly exceeded anything I expected. If you are facing a serious charge in Virginia and want someone who will fight for you and stand by you, Steven Thomas is the attorney you want in your corner. I can’t recommend him highly enough. Thank you!”- Nathan, Google Review
  • “I’m truly grateful for Steven Thomas and his team’s work. His time and effort to help me throughout this process has been great, especially with this being the first time I’ve ever needed a lawyer. Even with some challenges, he’s been able to help me get the best possible outcome. I’m blessed that this law firm came to my door.”-Terrence, Google Review
  • “I recently got a reckless driving ticket and was so scared of the outcome I was going to have to face in court. Steven was honest with me about everything and his team had great communication. Because of him, I was able to avoid jail time and continue with my normal life. He is very kind and encouraging and I would 100% recommend him and his team to anyone who needs the help!” –Drew, Google Review
