First Offender? You Still Need a Lawyer.

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.
