Criminal Lawyer In Sterling, VA

Aggressive defense services in your criminal case

Criminal law exists in order to regulate social conduct and forbid the endangerment of other people. Whereas civil law focuses more on the resolution of disputes and/or compensation for the victim, criminal law is meant to exact punishment for the criminal. Like any place else, some Virginia residents may find themselves in criminal court at a certain point for a variety of reasons. This creates the need to seek out Virginia criminal lawyers. If you find yourself in this situation, you have to make the decision whether it is worth it for you to have competent legal counsel accompany you. For summary or regulatory offences, you may decide to take a chance and go to court without any Virginia criminal attorneys assisting you. However, if you are facing a misdemeanor or felony, we recommend retaining an attorney to represent you in court.
