Testimonials

I found myself in a very unfortunate situation. While driving home after a night out with friend, a police officer pulled me over. I had never been in a situation like this before, and was eventually brought over to the police station and blew a 0.08.

Arlington is notorious for how strict they are and I didn’t know what to do the following day when I was released. That day, I talked to a number of lawyers on the phone and over email, and ended up meeting a few in person. Andrew was very quick with his reply and was even willing to meet with me during a holiday.

After speaking with him at his office, I was feeling a lot more calm about everything. I was totally out of my comfort zone and Andrew’s support helped me with some of the most stressful months of my life.

Andrew was always very calm, polite, and explained everything along the way. He made sure we went to court well prepared, and gave me some homework leading up to the court date. After a few months, I was hoping for a reduced charge but I was completely blown away when Andrew called me to say that the charges were dropped.

I am incredibly grateful to Andrew and would highly recommend him.

Couple of months ago, I made the wrong decision and chose to drive home from a weekday concert and got pulled over. I was arrested in Fairfax County and charged with a DWI 1st offense with a BAC 0.10. I talked to a 15+ lawyers before ultimately deciding between Mr. Rudolphi and another lawyer, and eventually choosing Mr. Rudolphi and his law firm.

I was really hoping for a dismissal or not guilty verdict, but Mr. Rudolphi was honest and advised me that I didn’t perform that great on the FSTs and that the arresting officer was a part of a DUI Taskforce, so he had his ducks in a row. At my first court date, the prosecutor wanted to give me a BS deal that included jail time and a pretty high fine in my opinion. I only knew this because I obsessively looked over months of court dockets before my court date and had a general idea of what kind of deals they were handing out. Despite Mr. Rudolphi’s partner pressuring me to take the deal, I ultimately declined and continued my court date and I’m glad I did.

Every DUI/DWI case is different and the outcome is not guaranteed to be the same. Although I did poorly on the tests, I was lucky enough that I was polite to the officer during our interaction, so he had no objections to working on some kind of deal. On my second court date, Mr. Rudolphi was able to get the prosecutor to reduce my DWI to a reckless, which is still a misdemeanor, but I guess it doesn’t hold the same stigma of a DUI. This still came a fine, suspended/restricted license, and VASAP classes and counseling. But no jail time and no interlock. It also makes you eligible for an expungement of your DUI arrest, which I plan to do since I don’t want this lapse of judgement to hurt my future career and life.

Throughout the whole process, I mostly contacted Mr. Rudolphi via text and he always responded either immediately or within a timely manner. My anxiety skyrocketed during this time and he answered every question I had. Although I personally did not care for John or Lauren, I would recommend Mr. Rudolphi if you find yourself in a similar situation as mine. He will help you move on with your life. Thanks Andrew.

Mr. Rudolphi was a beacon of hope to me at the time when my options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed almost impossible. His performance was outstanding. I’m eternally grateful for his service and hereby highly recommend Mr. Rudolphi’s services.

Andrew is a lawyer on the rise and does a great job handling a case. He is genuine, to the point and stays on top of things throughout. Andrew was proactive in helping me prepare for the case, always called back and understood the importance to his client. Mr. Rudolphi was able to reduce a significant felony to a misdemeanor with no jail time, achieving the results I sought and that we had aimed for throughout the case. I highly recommend Andrew as an attorney who will work for you and get results.

I hired Andrew Rudolphi, a partner at the law firm of John A. Boneta & Associates, for a criminal defense in my court case.
Andrew was extremely professional and efficient throughout the whole experience. He carefully listened to everything I said and requested information from me in order to help out with my case. He then set forth a list of 3 or 4 proactive things I could do before the court date, most of which I was able to fulfill. The legal advice and plan of action he then suggested were pivotal in getting my charges dropped and allowed me to continue on with my life. I am so appreciative of Andrew and everyone at John A. Boneta and Associates(a special thank you shout out to John and Lauren!) for helping me with my legal issues and would use them again in a heartbeat. They are some of the finest legal minds in the area and worth every penny. Keep up the good work!!!

A couple months back I was arrested for DWI in Fairfax County. Since we had no idea how to proceed or what to do we decided to seek legal help. Andrew was one of the first persons to respond to our request for representation. We were very impressed by his thoroughness and professionalism and hired him shortly after. Because of his excellent guidance we went through the process of having to go to court multiple times as he recommended, to continue the trial on later dates. At the 3rd and final court date, Andrew tried his best to get a plea deal but the prosecutor was unwilling to make a friendly bargain. So we took the case to trial. This is where Andrew’s expertise and skills shone through. I say this because Andrew completely turned around what could have been an absolutely unfavorable case to getting the judge to dismiss the case and letting me go free.
Throughout the entire time Andrew was always explaining best case worst case scenario. He was always preparing us for the next steps and made sure we were well prepared going to court.
He was always ready to go and fight my case.
Be smart – hire this man.
