Law Office Of CHRISTOPHER LEIBIG Criminal Defense

Criminal Trials &  Negotiations

  During twenty-five years as a defense attorney, Chris has handled more than a hundred felony trials (meaning cases where the accused pled not guilty and went to trial) in state and federal courts in Virginia and Washington, DC.He has also handled hundreds of serious felony cases that were resolved by agreement without a trial. Which path to take in a serious criminal case can only be decided after a cautious assessment of the facts and circumstances of that case. It is the philosophy of the firm that neither decision, whether to go to trial or to attempt to resolve a matter through negotiation, can be made quickly or easily.

 

   Most often, an attorney must prepare and strategize for both possibilities from the very beginning of a case. During a free consultation with a potential client, and throughout representation, the firm will always talk through various strategies and the progress of the case on a regular basis, and at times convenient for the client.
