How Can Andrew & Fitz Help?

You’re in the right place to learn how to handle your traffic, misdemeanor, or felony charge.

But where do you start? How can we help?

Step 1 – read and watch videos

Most people want to get their bearings and learn a little about the charge they’re facing. We’ve got hundreds of articles and videos here for free, so you can learn a ton on your own.

Dive right in by visiting our Services page where we have a list of the main categories of offenses. Or you can go to our Blog to start reading that way.

Step 2 – contact us for free

There’s no commitment here. We promise.

We provide free case strategy sessions for offenses in our area. We’ll discuss the facts of your case, the law, defenses you might have, and what tactics we can use at court.

There are many ways to contact us, which you can find on our Contact page. The easiest way is to pick up the phone and call 540.318.5824.

Step 3 – decide if you want to hire us

The order here is important. We recommend learning about your case before even picking up the phone. Then talking with us.

THEN you’ll be educated about the situation and can make an informed decision about what to do.

You may not even need a lawyer for your case, but talk with us before you make that choice.

If you hire us, here’s how the process works:

Step 4 – sign our simple email agreement

We have a streamlined process to make it easy to work with our firm. Your case can probably be handled by phone and email without you even coming to our office.

We first email you a simple Client Plan that you can review and e-sign in your web browser (We can mail it snail mail, if you don’t use email). You can even sign it on your smart phone!

Once you agree to the half-page Client Plan, our system will let you pay online with any major debit or credit card. You can also pay with cash, check, money order, etc.

Step 5 – relax!

Once you hire us, your problem is now our problem. That’s one major advantage to hiring a lawyer. Clients routinely tell us that they felt a weight lift off their shoulders just by having us on board.

Andrew, Fitz, and our staff will begin preparing your case for court. We’ll notify the court that we represent you and begin working on a continuance if necessary in your case.

For traffic cases, many lawyers will tell you to get your driving record. But that’s our job! We’ll get your driving record and send you a copy.

Step 6 – maybe come to court

Depending upon your case, we may be able to handle the case without you stepping foot inside the courtroom. This applies to most traffic tickets and the majority of reckless driving charges. But we will definitely discuss whether or not you need to be in court.

Either way, Andrew or Fitz will be in court for you on court date. You’ll know who the lawyer who is addressing the judge on your behalf.

If you have to come to court, we’ll meet early that morning and discuss the case face-to-face. We’ll make a plan about how to plead (guilty, not guilty, or no contest), and we’ll answer all your questions.

When it comes time to face the judge, Andrew or Fitz will be at your side.

If you’re not at court for your case, we’ll email and call you that same day with the results. You shouldn’t have to wait for a letter to arrive a week later. You should hear good news right away!
