Veni, vedi, vici!
After I had received a ticket for reckless driving in 25 miles zone I was very fortunate to call to Marina Medvin.
In our initial conversation Marina promised to help with my problem and she definitely did! Marina made all the process extremely simple and easy. I received complete set of instructions and, most important, Marina freed me from necessity of court appearance. In the end she reduced my reckless driving to a simple speeding ticket. It was much more than I could hope for. I think that Marina is a fantastic layer. Thank you so much!

I have known and worked with Marina Medvin for a number of years. Ms. Medvin is very hard working and diligent. She represents her clients with passion and aggressively advocates for the best outcome. I have co-counseled with Marina on difficult cases and have also been against her in contentious matters. Each time, I have seen firsthand how hard she works to prepare and have been impressed with her efforts. I highly recommend her.

Ms. Medvin is an excellent attorney. I had the opportunity to work with her on a case recently. I found her to be very knowledgable, meticulous, and able to succinctly correlate the legal facts of the case with the medical aspects. She is top notch, providing 110% effort . I highly recommend her.

I had the pleasure of having Ms.Medvin represent me in a "passing a school bus" charge in Arlington county. Ms.Medvin was a beacon of hope when my options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed high on impossible. Not only was she able to defend my charge, she got it reduced substantially to a traffic infraction. I would recommend Ms. Medvin without reservation.

Ms. Medvin is a quality attorney in her many fields of expertise. I chose to have her represent me recently for a traffic charge that put my job a well being in jeopardy. She is very straight forward, by the book, and professional at all times. As soon as I retained her as my attorney I was given a detailed list of things to do to prepare for my court case. Did everything she asked and my end result couldn't hv been any better, charge was dropped and I received a second chance thank you so much Ms. Medvin!

Dauntless Defense by the best of the best!

Ms. Marina Medvin is truly an exceptional attorney. She loves the Law, and it shows. Her expertise is best-in-class, she navigates the intricacies of the process without effort and commands respect of the prosecutors as a tough negotiator, projecting confidence with grace, elegance of logic that melts, but does not burn bridges behind.
Charged with a high rate of speeding and reckless driving on George Washington Parkway (located on federal land), charge that carries possible prison term and a very high fine, I started to look for an attorney to represent me. In no time I came across hundreds of 5-star reviews left for Marina by happy clients. No paid-for advertisement can match the persuasive power of so many people from all walks of life, who had nothing but the most superlative things to say about Medvin Law. I contacted Marina, she responded promptly, and I just knew I am in good hands of an amazing lawyer.
Marina was not only very responsive to my (admittedly) ceaseless questions, as I was worrying daily, and nightly, about the outcome of my case, but working with her top-notch paralegal, Elena, they advised me on exactly what to expect on the Court day and how to prepare for it. They went beyond formulaic advice, and the suggestions about what to bring with me, what not to say, what will happen in the courtroom etc. proved absolutely spot on. Marina and Elena covered things that I didn’t think to ask about but was so fortunate to be in the hands of top pros, who did thoroughly thought the process through and injected it with positive energy and hope for a favorable outcome.
I was most impressed with Marina’s style and attention to detail while explaining the strategy, predicting likely (100% correct) outcome, and even providing encouragement and support I thought only happens in movies.
I could not say enough to recommend Marina to anyone who finds him/herself in trouble. When Marina agreed to represent me, I felt the weight lifting off my shoulders, I knew I was in the best of hands. Marina is a credit to her profession and the kind of attorney others should be measured by. I feel so grateful to have her represent me, so fortunate to have her on my side.
And the result in my case? A small speeding fine. Could not be more pleased.

I recommend Medvin Law for the best criminal defense possible.

Getting arrested for a totally BS firearms charge really upset me, but Marina helped me every step of the way, and in the end, the case was totally dismissed. I can't say enough great things about her work ethic, positive attitude, and overall professional demeanor. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for the best criminal defense lawyer.

I was charged with assault and battery and I am so grateful to have had Marina Medvin defend me.
After all these years of walking the straight-and-narrow I was in the most horrifying nightmare of my life. I was rattled and alone, and from the start Ms. Medvin took charge and care of me and my case. She wasted no time and gave me in full measure the instruction, clarity, options and guidance that I needed. She helped me to focus. And because of Marina Medvin's in-depth knowledge of the court system and all its members, and because of her skill and innate poise, she not only succeeded on my behalf, but she made a big fan of me. I was proud to have her stand up for and by me in court.

Her level of expertise is unparalleled. She works tirelessly yet efficiently for each client.

I have had the privilege of working with Ms. Medvin on various cases, and I find her to be exceptionally competent, intelligent, trustworthy and compassionate. Ms. Medvin is compassionate about the Law and those she is called to serve, and she takes that calling very seriously. As a retired police detective I have worked with many defense attorneys, many of whom I would not or could not trust, but if I should ever need the services of an attorney, she will be the first attorney I call! She is a credit to the profession, and that is not something I would say lightly!

It is with great pleasure that I write this stellar review for Ms. Medvin for all prospective clients to read. Unfortunately I have a bit of experience with the law and have hired at least 10 defense attorneys without and of Ms. Medvin's attributes. you may be asking yourself as I did "is she worth the additional cost?" Yes, tenfold... The amount of time and money as well as penalty from losing the case if you want elsewhere far outweighs the few extra dollars you pay with this firm. Also that extra money affords you unrivaled responsiveness and actual constitutional law knowledge down to how statutes read and are interpreted by judges. I won't say she will fight tooth and nail for you because she doesn't do that at all. The fact is that she knows more than other attorneys on many levels. I was taken aback I must admit. It is quite impressive the level of respect she commands from the judges and the uneasiness she instills in prosecutors. Ms. Medvin is top notch, A+, 5 star. Also I have never written a review for anything else in my life. This testimonial was that important to me to let everyone know what excellence looks like.

Ms. Medvin is a phenomenal Northern Virginia attorney, who excels in both state matters and federal cases across the Eastern District of Virginia. She has great experience and intelligence, but more importantly she has the passion to back it up and ensure that each client receives the care, preparation, and dedication that they deserve. I highly recommend her firm.

I contacted Ms. Medvin on a weekend. She wrote me right back and within a couple of days had reviewed my case and begun collecting evidence. In short order, she settled my case on favorable terms. She then walked me through the process of following up to take care of the details needed to fully resolve the matter.

Ms. Medvin was extremely knowledgeable regarding how opposing counsel and the judge would view my case; everything happened as she said it would. Also, she helped me with things that were not even within the scope of our representation agreement, simply because she saw I could use the help. For example, she gave me tips about getting safe driving points from the VA DMV, which erased existing points from my driving record. She also quickly cleared up some confusion at the DMV for me that likely would have required months and a lot of my time to try to manage on my own -- if I even could.

When I retained Ms. Medvin, at first I thought it seemed like a lot to pay up front. However, that was probably the best money I've spent in my life. She is worth every penny and then some. I would highly recommend Ms. Medvin.

Ms. Medvin handled a case for me, and I can't imagine any lawyer handling it better. First, she responds to you extremely quickly after the initial contact. Then, she is very attentive to you along the whole process. When it was time for my trial, Marina was relentless about making sure that I got treated fairly the whole time. Thank you Marina for taking care of me and helping me obtain a not guilty verdict!

An excellent attorney with equally good relationships with the prosecuting attorneys and judges in the City of Alexandria. Efficient, thorough, knowledgeable with an extremely reassuring manner. I did what she asked, when she asked, and all that she asked and she provided me with an exceptional defense, ultimately resulting in a small fine rather than a much stiffer punishment. I endorse Marina in the strongest possible way; you will not be disappointed if she is your legal counsel.

Marina is absolutely the most intelligent, caring, and professional criminal defense attorney I know in Arlington. She is well known within the legal community in Northern Virginia and is highly respected by judges, prosecutors, and law enforcement officers alike. The knowledge and experience she possess from her education and career is simply astonishing when she is compared to other criminal defense attorneys in Arlington and Fairfax counties. I have never seen her have an incorrect interpretation of the law which is simply amazing to say the least. The level of compassion she shows for her clients is often unseen in her profession and I have personally seen her comfort and reassure her clients well outside of business hours. Marina is the only criminal defense attorney I would ever trust my freedom with and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Marina is the real deal. Her knowledge of the law -- at both a micro and macro level -- is extensive, and her courtroom chops are both (a) top-notch and (b) exactly what you'd expect from a lawyer with her combination of fearlessness and zeal. But what really sets Marina apart from the crowd is her love of the game. She gives 100% in all facets of a criminal defense representation, and she never takes a client off.

Marina is the best defense attorney I know. She is always working, always available, and always keeps her clients informed. One of the toughest things about needing a lawyer is that you are often in unfamiliar territory. Marina lets you know what to expect and updates you all the time as your case develops.
She’s very honest – she won’t sugar coat things for you. She is the epitome of professional. She is respectful of her clients and has a great working relationship with everyone who frequents the courthouses where she works – from the security staff to the judges, who obviously know and respect her. She doesn’t judge you. She is understanding and kind in meetings, but tough in the courtroom and in negotiations. Marina is crazy smart. She is hardworking and diligent – she knows her subject matter incredibly well and can explain the technicalities of the law to clients and other lawyers alike. Even so, she continuously researches developing case law in order to make the best arguments in favor of her clients. She is creative and thinks outside the box. She obviously loves what she does and it shows in the quality of her work. HIGHLY recommend her. Best decision you can make for yourself.

Thanks to Marina’s exceptional defense, my son just walked out the federal sentencing court as a free man. My son was originally charged with a federal felony which could cause him 5 years in jail one year ago. Marina fought it fearless with Government and eventually had the felony charge dropped to A MISDEMEANOR, and then presented in court to keep our son out of jail and won with only six months of probation. Rest of the defendants in the conspiracy group were all sentenced to an average 30 days in prison plus one year home confinement. Marina’s outstanding representation in the court has made complete difference and has saved my son from going to jail!
During the course of the representation Marina working diligently with my son go through details and preparing court filings. Marina has very strong background in computer technology and cybercrime, this advantage has greatly enhanced the defense strategies and defense results. She always keeps us updated in the real time and give us advices on actions. She responded to our emails, phone calls even over the weekends and late in the nights. Her dedicated help has greatly help our family to restore confidence and hope.
I strong recommend Marina if you need a dedicated lawyer to fight for you in a federal criminal case. She is truly the best federal criminal defense lawyer you can ever find in VA. If you need a dedicated lawyer with in-depth knowledge in computer and internet, Marina is the only lawyer you need.
Our whole family is so grateful for her exceptional representation and defense, she is the most diligent and dedicated criminal defense lawyer.
