Virginia Beach Criminal Defense Attorneys

A Client-Focused Criminal Defense Firm

Are you facing a criminal charge for the first time? In real life, the criminal justice system doesn't look like what you've seen on TV. What is true, though, is that the police are NOT on your side. They can and will pressure you to say things that can damage your case. Even innocent people can get themselves in trouble if they talk to the police without a lawyer present.

If you've been arrested for a misdemeanor or felony crime in the Virginia Beach, Hampton Roads and Eastern Shore regions of Virginia, contact the criminal defense firm of Valverde & Rowell, P.C. We defend people facing misdemeanor and felony charges in Virginia state courts, such as:

• Drug crimes, particularly possession of marijuana, cocaine, crack, meth and illegal prescription drugs
• Theft, burglary, larceny, shoplifting, employee theft
• Assault, assault and battery, aggravated assault, assault with a deadly weapon
• Traffic violations, including DUI/DWI, speeding and driving on a suspended or revoked license
• Domestic violence and disturbing the peace
• Probation violations
• Failure to appear
• Juvenile crimes

Juvenile Offenders

Has your young person been charged as a juvenile delinquent or juvenile offender? Maybe he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Maybe she was hanging out with the wrong friends and got in over her head. Maybe the charge is true and your son or daughter needs some help to get back on track. Whatever the case, this is an opportunity to step in to make a difference in his or her life.

Criminal defense lawyer M. Scott Prickett has been a long-term advocate in the juvenile justice system. He works with young clients to fight unfair criminal charges and to minimize the consequences of a juvenile sentence. Mr. Prickett cares about the young people of Virginia and will work hard to help juvenile clients understand the situations and behaviors that have gotten them in trouble in the past so they can have a better future.
