Criminal Defense in Loudoun County, VA

Elizabeth’s experience as a former prosecutor gives her unique insight into how cases are built—and how they can be challenged in a court of law. She is well-versed in the nuances of criminal law, from DUI and traffic violations to more serious felony charges. By drawing on her prosecutorial background, Elizabeth can identify weaknesses in the state’s evidence, question procedural errors, and negotiate outcomes that minimize harm to her clients. Beyond her legal expertise, Elizabeth fosters a supportive and understanding environment where clients feel comfortable sharing their full stories. She knows that no two cases are the same, and she believes that every individual deserves a dedicated advocate who will fight for their rights and fair treatment.

A core part of her criminal defense practice is addressing the underlying factors that may have led to legal trouble, especially for those struggling with substance abuse. Elizabeth recognizes that addiction can drive people to make decisions they might not otherwise consider. Instead of focusing solely on legal punishment, she fights for rehabilitation opportunities and alternatives to incarceration when possible. By demonstrating a client’s efforts toward recovery, Elizabeth can often negotiate for reduced or alternative penalties that encourage long-term improvement rather than a cycle of repeat offenses.

Compassion for Clients with Substance Abuse

Elizabeth has seen firsthand how substance abuse can devastate families and derail lives. As a staunch believer in the power of second chances, she works tirelessly to ensure that her clients receive the help they need. For many facing criminal charges related to substance abuse, legal intervention can be a critical turning point—an opportunity to address addiction issues and pursue meaningful change. With a deep commitment to this cause, Elizabeth guides her clients toward resources such as treatment programs, counseling, and support networks, advocating for sentencing structures that emphasize recovery. She collaborates with local mental health professionals and substance abuse counselors to present judges and prosecutors with tangible evidence of her clients’ efforts toward rehabilitation.

In addition to using her legal skills, Elizabeth’s empathy shines through. She takes the time to listen and understand each person’s situation, remaining approachable and free of judgment. This supportive environment can make all the difference for individuals feeling isolated or overwhelmed by the criminal justice process. By balancing a strong legal defense with genuine compassion, Elizabeth aims to help her clients turn a corner and break the cycle of addiction-related offenses.

Personal Injury Representation

While Elizabeth devotes much of her practice to criminal defense, she is equally committed to assisting victims of accidents and negligence in personal injury cases. A sudden injury—whether from a car accident, slip and fall, or other incident—can turn a person’s life upside down. Elizabeth knows that medical bills, lost wages, and physical pain place an enormous burden on individuals and families. With her background in litigation, she can skillfully negotiate with insurance companies or, if necessary, take a case to trial to secure the compensation her clients need to move forward.

Elizabeth’s personal approach ensures that she views clients not just as cases, but as people deserving of respect and empathy. She uses her experience to navigate the complexities of Virginia law, always fighting for fair outcomes, so clients can focus on their recovery and regain a sense of security and stability.

Specialized Focus on Special Education

Beyond criminal defense and personal injury, Elizabeth dedicates a portion of her practice to special education advocacy for children. She believes that every child, regardless of their learning challenges or disabilities, has the right to a proper education. With a thorough understanding of federal and state laws such as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), Elizabeth stands up for children whose educational rights are at risk. She works with parents to develop and review Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), challenge school decisions that may be harmful or inadequate, and secure accommodations that meet each child’s unique needs.

For many families, navigating the special education process can feel daunting and bureaucratic. Elizabeth’s goal is to demystify these procedures, ensuring that parents have the information and support they need to advocate for their children. By offering guidance rooted in compassion and experience, she strives to give kids the best possible chance at academic and personal success.
