Virginia drug sentencing – Fairfax criminal lawyer weighs in

January 14, 2018

Virginia drug sentencing can involve stiff penalties. As a Fairfax criminal lawyer, I fight to win drug cases, and, for any sentencing, to obtain the most favorable sentence

They fought for me tooth and nail!
When I got in some trouble in the Virginia Area I immediately looked online for lawyers . After reading review Mr Katz name kept showing up ! I thankfully am glad I went with him and his team! They fought for me tooth and nail! With his nifty work he was able to get me a hell of a deal ! Thanks for showing you cared and fighting on my behalf !

He thrived in this environment clearly navigating and strategizing the best outcome for me
I was charged with soliciting a prostitute and frequenting a bawdy place. The end result was dismissal of the first charge and a reduction to a disorderly conduct for the second charge with a steep fine. Jon Katz was my lawyer for five months to which he assigned me “homework” and tasks to help mitigate possible risks and show the court my good faith when the time came. It was a lot of work but has absolutely paid off. I have no regrets as to selecting Jon. He has an outstanding reputation as a fierce civil rights lawyer. He is direct and to the point with no sugar coating. No doubt I would recommend him to anyone. In fact, I would recommend going to his website and review the lessons learned videos in preparation for any possible arrest specifically about keeping your mouth shut! During court day, Jon “worked” all the players. He thrived in this environment clearly navigating and strategizing the best outcome for me. I really don’t think anyone could have done better in this situation. Jon exceeded my expectations and in this area, your lawyer is your best friend which Jon was!

Homework Pays Off!
Jon is a bulldog. In a judicial system that treats each defendant as a cog in a factory, Jon researches all the inherent biases in the system and advocates zealously and passionately on his client’s behalf. In my case, due to Covid-19, I needed to wait 10 months for proper adjudication. Yet, at the outset, Jon advised me to do a long list of homework to help with my case (potential misdemeanors for DUI and reckless driving). I accomplished all of the homework as quickly as possible. At times, it felt as though the homework would not provide me with the outcome that I wanted – given how impersonal the court experience had been. Nonetheless, when the day came, Jon meticulously went through all of the homework, presented it in a holistic and systematic way, and negotiated an excellent outcome on my behalf (dropped charge; substantial charge/penalty reduction on the other). The judge openly noted how impressive the homework was, and he went further noting that my counsel was outstanding. I couldn’t agree more. At times, Jon can come off brusquely or hurried, but he is always on his game when the day in court arrives. And that bulldog approach is precisely what makes him effective. Thank you, Jon, for a terrific outcome!
