CRIMINAL DEFENSE
Criminal Charges in Northern Virginia? Don’t Let One Mistake Define You.
If you’ve been charged with a crime in Virginia, time matters. Call Battlefield Law Group now to start protecting your rights.
A DUI Stop. A Traffic Violation. Now You’re Facing Criminal Charges.
Most criminal cases in Virginia don’t start with flashing lights and handcuffs. They start with something small like a speeding ticket, drifting over the line, a loud car stereo.
But when police suspect something more, that stop becomes an opportunity to investigate. Suddenly, you’re being questioned, your car is being searched, and what started as a traffic stop has turned into a criminal case.
At Battlefield Law Group, we know how these charges unfold, and how to fight them.
We Understand How Police Work & Where They Overstep
We regularly defend clients whose criminal charges started with a DUI investigation, a minor traffic infraction, or even a knock at the door. These pretexts are often used to look for more serious charges, including:
Drug possession
Guns in vehicles
Impairment or refusal to test
Open containers
Statements made under pressure
Our first step is always to investigate the legality of the stop, probable cause, and search and seizure violations. If your rights were violated, we will challenge the evidence and fight to have your case dismissed or reduced.
Types of Criminal Charges We Handle
We defend clients across Northern Virginia against a wide range of criminal allegations, including:
DUI / DWI (Virginia Code § 18.2-266)
Drug possession and distribution (Virginia Code §§ 18.2-250, 18.2-248)
Reckless driving and serious traffic offenses (Virginia Code § 46.2-862)
Assault and battery (Virginia Code § 18.2-57)
Theft and larceny (Virginia Code §§ 18.2-95, 18.2-96)
Weapons offenses (Virginia Code § 18.2-308)
Domestic violence (Virginia Code § 18.2-57.2)
Expungements and record sealing
Whether you’ve been charged with a misdemeanor or a felony, your future is at stake. We treat every case with the urgency and strategy it deserves.

First Offender? You Still Need a Lawyer.
Virginia courts are tough, even on first-time offenders. A conviction can result in:
A permanent criminal record
Jail time or probation
Loss of driving privileges
Immigration, employment, or housing consequences
Barriers to professional licenses and security clearances
We will guide you through potential alternatives, such as first offender programs, diversion, or deferred findings under the appropriate statutes, such as § 18.2-251 for drug cases or § 19.2-298.02 for other misdemeanors.
