I have represented individuals since 2004 in domestic relations, criminal defense, civil litigation and administrative law cases in a dozen Virginia jurisdictions.  I founded my solo law practice in 2007 with a simple but important goal: to better serve the needs of my clients.   By limiting the number of cases I handle, I am able to provide each client with the level of care, attention, and preparation that every client deserves, free of the demands of a larger law firm.  The testimonials you’ll find on these pages reflect my abiding commitment to protecting my clients’ interests.  I never forget that law is a service profession, and I work every day to serve both my clients and the legal community according to the highest professional and ethical standards.  Fair and flexible billing is central to my relationship with each client.

"I could tell that [Mr. McCarthy] truly loved his profession.  He was extremely prepared for our case.  He came into court with the attitude to grab this case by the horns and win it." *

We practice in most Northern Virginia jurisdictions, including the counties of Fauquier, Prince William, Loudoun, Fairfax, Culpeper and Stafford.
