Karin Riley Porter Attorney at Law

I was incredibly fortunate to have Karin Porter representing me after being arrested in Fairfax County for DUI and driving on a suspended license. The videotape of my DUI arrest was particularly damning. A key factor behind selecting Karin to represent me was her near-decade of experience as a prosecutor and the fact she actually clerked for a Fairfax County Circuit Court judge. Although I had nearly zero interaction with the court system before this arrest, an obvious consideration was that my lawyer needed to know the key players (judge, prosecutor, law enforcement) and, more importantly, be respected by them. It was immediately clear during our first meeting Karin met this criteria, and it was increasingly reinforced throughout the process that Karin’s standing within the Fairfax County legal/court community couldn’t be higher. She knows the people firsthand and has extensively worked every aspect of the court system. Karin was a uniquely effective advocate for me when negotiating with the prosecution and arresting officer. Thanks to her in-depth knowledge, professional tenacity, and remarkable reputation among prosecutors and the police, my DUI was reduced to reckless driving, and the driving on a suspended license charge was reduced to simply driving without a license. Karin is an exceptional lawyer and I was lucky to have her fighting for me.

I had a very unusual case and Karin Porter handled it in the best way possible. She was very responsive to all of my (many) questions and was very reassuring. I am extremely satisfied with my experience and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of an attorney.

Karin is an amazing lawyer! She had my ticket reduced from Wreck less speeding to speeding. If you need a Lawyer, she is once of the best I have ever met. She kept me in the loop 100% along the way, answered questions any time I had them. I hope I never get a ticket again, but if I do Karin Porter will be who I call! She did an amazing job!

We hired Karin Riley Porter to represent our son for a reckless driving charge. Karin immediately put together an actionable plan that included classes prior to his court date. Karin's knowledge, experience, and pragmatic approach led to the best possible outcome - the charge was dropped all together. Not only is Karin highly competent and hard working, she is a real advocate for her clients and leaves no stone unturned. We would highly recommend Karin Riley Porter; she is an outstanding attorney!

Ms. Porter was kind enough to give me a free phone consultation about my case. I already had an attorney, but wanted to make sure all that could be done, was being handled appropriately. Her expert advise and knowledge gave me the reassurance i needed. I so appreciated her time, kindness and professional manner.
