Special need exception to reasonable suspicion – Fairfax criminal lawyer decries it

September 13, 2019

Special need is sometimes used by police to try to justify stopping people when they do not have probable cause nor individualized reasonable articulable suspicion to stop, frisk or search a person for evidence of criminal activity. As a Fairfax criminal lawyer, I am disheartened...

Very courteous and knowledgeable

I hired Jon to represent me in a first time DUI case. From my first interaction with Jon, he came across very courteous and knowledgeable. It took me one meeting to know that I could trust Jon to deliver the best outcome. Jon represented me in a trial and was able to get a judgement of dismissal on all 4 charges. Jon is unbelievably good at his job and I would recommend him any day.

He is simply outstanding!

Jon Katz is an excellent lawyer. I’ve known him for more than two decades and have always been extremely impressed by his knowledge of the law and his dedication to his clients. I am a lawyer but I am not licensed in Virginia. Mr. Katz is my “go-to” lawyer there. I regularly refer clients to him and feel confident that they are in the best hands. I have watched Mr. Katz in trial and have learned from observing his skill and finesse. He is simply outstanding!

I saw Jon present at a national educational seminar last month. I was very impressed by his experience, expertise and the efforts he takes to remain on the cutting edge of his legal specialty.
