Suppression appeals- Fairfax criminal lawyer comments

October 3, 2024

Suppression appeals by Virginia assistant commonwealth's attorneys / prosecutors are not automatically precluded by res judicata / estoppel grounds. Perez Flores v. Commonwealth of Virginia, ___ Va. App. ___ (Oct. 1, 2024). As a Fairfax lawyer, moving to integrate my suppression motion into the trial is...

Dealing with law enforcement and courts is not a joke

I needed the best attorney to protect my reputation and future. Dealing with law enforcement and courts is not a joke; in fact it is very tricky and not smart to deal by yourself or by hiring some attorney who you just hired because they were the cheapest.

You get what you pay for….I firmly believe in it!

Don’t think twice …call Jon now.

Dismissal of a complex case

Mr. Jon Katz demonstrated the breadth of his legal expertise and knowledge when I hired him to represent me in a particularly complex case. He explained the legal process in a manner easily understood by a layperson but was not at all condescending. Mr. Katz also adequately prepared me for my deposition to prevent me from becoming flustered in a setting where opposing counsel posed seemingly confrontational questions at a rapid-fire pace. He was also adept in questioning the opposing witnesses to where the judge dismissed the case. Mr. Katz was also very helpful in expunging my case. With his impeccable credentials, I highly recommend Mr. Katz if you seek legal representation.

He single-handedly helped me out of a situation I didn't think was winnable

If you are here, I was in your shoes not too long ago and looking for a lawyer. I got a DUI and a felony drug charge with a marijuana vape pen in Prince William County, and I was sure my life was ruined, so I started looking at lawyers to try to salvage my situation as best as I could. Mr. Katz came recommended from a friend after looking and talking to 2 other lawyers, thank goodness I made the decision to go with him. He was very prompt in getting back to me (which was the most important thing to me), and we set up a meeting to go over what had happened. I noticed when I visited him that he knew what he was doing and would not bullshit me in any way and would try to get the best possible outcome. We shook hands and he gave me homework. I will emphasize that the homework is THE MOST important thing you can do to help yourself. The court date came and as nervous as I was, Mr. Katz came in very confident and that put me at ease. He consulted with me, then talked to the PA for a good 5-10 minutes but it felt like a lifetime to me, and came back all smiles. I got the best possible outcome for anyone in my position. I figured I would get the DUI so that was expected, but I was really concerned about the felony drug charge because I was originally looking at 1 to 10 years. This madman somehow got it dropped to a disorderly conduct and no probation for anything. To say I was relieved is an understatement, he single-handedly helped me out of a situation I didn’t think was winnable. I would definitely recommend Mr. Katz to anyone because I know for a fact he will work hard to get the best possible outcome for you. Mr. Katz if you are reading this, I cannot thank you enough for what you did for me and I’m definitely grateful for all of your service and I’ll recommend everyone I know to you!
