- Dorsey, Jeffrey:
Criminal
It is frightening to be charged with a crime. The processes of investigation, arrest, arraignment, and trial are confusing and threatening. No one should face criminal charges and a possible loss of liberty without experienced counsel. Trial counsel is necessary to protect all of your constitutional rights.

- Bosen, Harry: A drunk driving arrest and conviction can be of profound consequence to your daily life. It also can have a negative impact on your life for years to come. Not only might you lose your driving privileges, but you could also lose your job and be barred from future employment. Your insurance rates will skyrocket, and there is the potential for jail time with a second or third offense. In Virginia, DUI or driving under the influence (of alcohol, drugs or a combination of both) is a class 1 misdemeanor: * Anyone convicted of DUI is required by law to lose his or her license for one year or longer for repeat offenses * Maximum punishment includes a $2,500 fine and one year in jail. * Anyone convicted is also required to participate in the Virginia Alcohol Safety Action Program (VASAP), a drunk driving education program that costs $300. The consequences escalate with repeat offenses. For example, someone convicted of a fourth drunk driving offense within 10 years of a prior conviction is subject to a mandatory one-year jail sentence.
- Ray Byrd: Either the prosecution or the defense may present evidence at a defendant's sentencing hearing. If the prosecution presents evidence, it is generally in the form of the defendant's prior criminal record or the defendant's bad reputation and bad character.
- David Walker
- Thomas Bowers: In criminal cases, time is important. You have a limited number of appearances before your case will be scheduled for trial. You have the right to have your attorney present at each of those appearances.
