Practice Areas Description

- DUI Defense

In all the Virginia counties we serve, DUI enforcement and prosecution are intense. We realize this is a charge almost anyone from students to professionals, and laborers to government officials can face because of an error in judgment or even an officer's overzealous actions.Understanding drunk driving laws, which have become much more complex over the years, can be a challenge in itself. When you contact us about your arrest for driving under the influence (DUI) still sometimes called DWI we will explain consequences clearly and approach your case based on your personal circumstances.

- Multiple DUI

With each driving under the influence (DUI) conviction, the penalties become more severe. If you have been arrested for any DUI, but especially a second, third or fourth DUI, you need the help of an experienced local attorney to defend you from these charges and protect your rights.At Anderson & Mulrine, PLLC, both of our attorneys have the skills and knowledge to provide you with an aggressive defense to your drunk driving charges. Contact our office for straightforward legal advice about your charges in a free consultation.

- Traffic Violations

Our Northern Virginia police and courts want you to simply accept and pay any traffic ticket, which means pleading guilty. There may be many reasons this action is not right for you.We counsel and represent many people who cannot accept DMV "points" or a suspended license without exploring all options including truckers, delivery drivers, and many taxi cab drivers serving Washington Dulles International Airport. We also defend juveniles facing harsh consequences, and we frequently contest tickets for people who believe the charge is unjust.

- Felony

No one wants to become a convicted felon. A felony conviction is a scarlet letter on any job application or school application. It can result in a loss of basic constitutional rights, including the right to vote and the right to own a firearm. A felony conviction can also result in a significant jail or prison sentence.

- Misdemeanor

Many people charged with a misdemeanor make the mistake of thinking that a misdemeanor charge is not a big deal. A misdemeanor conviction is a criminal conviction. If you are ever asked on a job or school application if you have been convicted of a crime, you will have to answer yes. A misdemeanor conviction can affect your current employment if your employer finds out, and if you have a professional license you may be required to report your conviction to a licensing board or other professional association in your field.

- Drug Offense

However any of us may view the extremely strict drug laws and the stringent enforcement of those laws, this is reality in Virginia. There are no "minor" drug charges, and drug crime defense by an experienced lawyer is often essential to avoiding a lengthy jail or prison sentence.

- Illegal Prescription Drugs

Prescription painkillers are insidious. A seemingly helpful prescription painkiller for back pain, migraines or other injuries can quickly become a devastating addiction. This addiction can impact your career and personal life, and can land you in prison.

- Drug Distribution

Conviction for distribution of drugs or possession with intent to distribute can carry serious penalties. Not only could you face hard time in prison, even a "minor" charge will affect your ability to get a job or get into college.

- Theft Property Crimes

In Virginia, it does not take much to make a property crime a felony, and all felonies can carry harsh consequences including major fines and lengthy jail or prison time. This is what you may be dealing with if charged with shoplifting goods valued over $200, for example.

- Assault

If you are accused of a violent crime such as assault and battery or malicious wounding, the skill of your defense attorney may be critical in determining your future. Virginia law in this area is complex, with many fine distinctions that can make the difference not only between conviction and acquittal, but in the consequences you face

- Sex Crimes

Our Leesburg, Virginia, criminal defense firm is dedicated to the protection of our clients' rights and futures, regardless of the type or level of charges. If you or someone you care about stands accused of a sex offense, you can turn to us for a free initial consultation focused on your legal options and what we may be able to accomplish for you.

- Murder

As Loudoun County prosecutors, both attorneys at our firm were involved in many high-profile, high-stakes cases including those involving multiple homicides. We leverage and apply this valuable experience today as lawyers prepared to provide you or someone you care about with determined, resourceful defense against a murder charge.

- Domestic Violence

Although we would never minimize the impact of domestic violence on families and society, we also know that there are nearly always two sides to the story. Alcohol and revenge can sometimes play a role. Whatever happened and even if you feel the case has no merit at all it can be critical to have experienced representation when facing a domestic violence charge.

- Internet Crimes

At Anderson & Mulrine, PLLC, we offer a potent combination for our clients: decades of experience and up-to-date knowledge of evolving modern law. We recognize the power and temptation associated with the Internet, as well as the complex circumstances that may have led to your investigation and arrest for an Internet crime.

- Juvenile Crime

When your child has been arrested or is under investigation by the police, it can be frustrating, frightening and embarrassing. One of your first instincts may be to set a good example of honesty for your child by telling your son or daughter to tell the police the truth. As admirable as this may be, silence is the best tactic in this situation.
